$16 LAB—do you dare to bet?

Up 312% in a week: it surged from $4 to $27, then in just 2 hours it flashed down 77%, wiping out $6 billion in market cap. Right when you think it’s the “new king of the AI trading track,” the project team is exposed for insider manipulation controlling 95% of the supply. Proxy contracts dominate the sell pressure, and lock-up rules can be changed at will. Now it’s bouncing back to $16—buyback plans are sweeping the market with real money.

First, look at the surface: buybacks are real money, and the manipulation is also real.

In the past 7 days it rose 312%, and in the last 24 hours it rebounded another 8%, pulling back from 13.2 to 19.7, and now it’s hovering around 16. Market cap is $570 million, and trading volume has dropped 64% from its peak. On June 1–2, it was lifted in a parabolic run; after the ATH it printed long upper wicks and a +77% wipeout, cutting it in half—an obvious “pump–dump–repair” cycle at the highs with increased volume and panic selling.

First thing: the buyback is real—but so is the control.

LABtrade announced a protocol-level Buyback—ecosystem fee revenue automatically repurchases LAB. It has already bought back over 22.6 million coins, worth $3.4 million.

But!

ZachXBT exposed insider manipulation controlling 95%+ of the supply. After the ATH on June 2, a 77% flash crash hit within 2 hours. The community dug into it and found that proxy contracts dominated the sell pressure. The team unilaterally changed the vesting schedule—“a 9-month cliff lock-up” can be changed at will.

Second thing: low circulating supply + unlock “bombs” is the most deadly part.

Total supply is 1 billion, and circulating supply is only 310 million (31%). Over the next 7 months, monthly unlock pressure is huge—about 3.7 million coins per day.

Now the price is being propped up by “limited circulating supply + the buyback story.”

And there are still 700 million coins waiting to be dumped out.

You’re here to trade; they’re here to sell off.

Third thing: the candlestick chart has already told you the answer.

Daily chart: the parabolic lift on June 1–2 (4→27). After the ATH, long upper wicks +77% came with the retracement, and volume has fallen 64% from the peak. This is a typical “pump–crash–repair” loop.

The current rebound is from 13.2 to 19.7; RSI has recovered from the oversold zone, but the MACD histogram is narrowing—rebound momentum is weakening.

The bull-bear showdown—judge for yourself.

One side is:

- The buyback plan is real money; long-term deflationary benefits

- The AI + DeFi track, real usage scenarios, spanning Solana/ETH/BNB

- Up 312% in 7 days; hype exploded; capital is bonding together

- From 13 up to 19, the bulls are still resisting

The other side is:

- Insider manipulation of 95%+ supply; proxy contracts driving sell pressure; the team changing lock-up rules

- Circulation rate is only 31%; 700 million coins unlock “bombs” ahead

- Extremely thin liquidity; small orders smash the price

- A 77% flash crash in 2 hours—if it happens again, can you withstand it?

Key level is 16—the line between life and death is 13.

Resistance overhead: 20 → 22-25 → 27.3

Support below: 15 → 13 → 11

Short-term gamblers:

Go long with a light position at the current price of 16, stop loss at 13.5, target 18-20. If it breaks below 13.5, flip to short, with target 11-13.

Mid-term speculators:

Only suitable for those who believe TVL and fee income can keep growing. Buy in batches at 14-16, target 25+, but reduce positions as it rises.

Conservative type:

Wait until the daily flag pattern consolidation is over or volume spikes at the bottom before considering. If you enter now, there’s a 90% chance you’ll get chopped back and forth.

Position control:

Keep it within 5% of total funds.

LAB is like a top-tier “wang-level dirt dog” in 2025—

The buyback is real, and the story is very appealing, but you never know when the project team will press the sell-off button. #分享美股交易赢英伟达股票 #预测NBA总冠军赢20,000U $BTC $ETH $LAB

Why did CEO Zhang Xiaolong of Chalk Technology "lose his mind" on the spot during the speech event at Renmin University School of Philosophy?
Based on the reasons listed in Figure 2 for not wanting to take the civil service exam:
1️⃣ The admission ratio is too extreme, and the government is reducing recruitment, making future employment within the system difficult
2️⃣ Those preparing for civil service exams are mostly unlikely to pass; they only provide these people with emotional support and publicly available "internship opportunities"
3️⃣ The company is facing layoffs, with many tutors, market analysts, engineers, and others at risk of unemployment
Considering his age, he should be a graduate from Zhongshan University’s most progressive generation of thinkers.
Looking at his personal background, he in 2002, despite his high school homeroom teacher’s advice that "a major can affect employment," insisted on applying to the Philosophy Department of Guizhou University.
In college, he realized that "philosophy majors indeed face employment difficulties," then entered Zhongshan University’s Philosophy Department, and during his postgraduate entrance exam preparation, also prepared for civil service exams and went to interviews.
He deeply understands how hard it is to find employment with a philosophy degree, and he wanted to show these students a way to the sky, but he didn’t realize that these students are completely unaware of the harsh realities, have not been beaten by society, have not opened their eyes to see the world, nor studied the current policy directions guided by the country and kept pace with technological progress.
The positions available within the system are very limited, and most of the work is clerical.
In the context of the large-scale national push for technological innovation and AI industry transformation, these people are not delving into AI and emerging industries that are being "bottlenecked," and during the rapid development of AI, spending years preparing for civil service exams, which, if unsuccessful, could very likely lead to being eliminated by the times.
"Don’t think that just because you are at Renmin University, you are special; you are completely unaware of the impact you bring to society with new things, so it’s only natural that you can’t find a job."
I don’t think he’s losing his mind; he’s just feeling uneasy about earning tutoring money, misleading young people, and feeling too much pressure.
It’s a pity that these students are just frogs completely unaware of new phenomena; most people in the world are like that.
The first mistake he made was speaking to the wrong audience; the second was that he shouldn’t have talked about US stocks, and now talking about A-shares might be heading in two different directions.

I realized already at the end of October, six months ago, that the bear market was about to start—and I posted about it multiple times. Now Bitcoin is at 61,000; if most people had exited from that day, they’d be doing nothing worse than if they’d just kept playing. Even with a deep awareness that the bear market is coming, it’s still hard to stop yourself. I’ve been trading for half a year, and I have $100,000 less than last October. That’s the charm of the market.

Have you noticed? The thing crypto circles fear most now isn't bad news.
It's good news.
Early this morning, the US ADP reported 122k new jobs added, exceeding expectations and marking the strongest performance since January 2025.
The previous figure was only 105k, and this time it sped up directly.
Small businesses are frantically hiring, and trade and transportation are busy enough to smoke.
Even the wages of those who stayed have increased by 4.4%.
Isn't this evidence of a booming economy?
Yeah, in the past, this was called "prosperity." Now?
Dallas Fed President Logan directly said that day: "The Federal Reserve may need to raise interest rates this year."
Reading the two sentences together: employment is too good → inflation can't come down → raise interest rates.
So, you thought Bitcoin would rise, but it was pressed down and rubbed on the ground.
Why does good employment cause my coins to fall?
Because the current market has entered a twisted logic—
"Good news = bad news, bad news = good news."
Good employment? Raise interest rates. Price drops.
Inflation drops? Cut rates. Price rises.
Poor economy? Pump liquidity. Price rises.
Do you find this absurd? But this is the real trading room mentality under Fed data dependency.
How long will this "good news turns into bad news" distorted logic last?
It will continue until—poor employment data makes the market believe the Fed will really cut rates, but not so bad as to trigger recession panic.
What kind of "golden girl" data do you want:
Moderate slowdown in employment + continued decline in inflation + wage growth below 3.5%.
But the reality is, employment isn't slowing down but accelerating.
Wage growth at 4.4%, still far from below 3.5%.
So, what data combination could make the Fed return to a rate-cutting track?
Three conditions, none can be missing:
Non-farm payrolls below 80k for three consecutive months (not 120k, but under 80k).
CPI year-over-year stable below 2.5% (currently hovering above 3%).
Wage growth drops below 3.5% (currently 4.4%).
Compare these three conditions— which one seems achievable now?
None of them.
In other words, this summer, the market is likely to continue suffering.
Every time employment data looks good, BTC gets hammered; every time inflation spikes, rate hike expectations heat up.
If you see through this logic, you can plan ahead:
Reduce positions or hedge before each ADP or non-farm report;
When the market cheers because of "bad news" (like poor employment data), you can cautiously chase the highs.
This twisted logic won't end in the short term.
Unless a real "soft landing" signal appears, the idea that "good news is bad news" will act like a noose, tightening around all risk assets.
Do you think the FOMC on June 16-17 will raise rates?
Are you currently holding a short position watching the show, or are you stubbornly #分享美股交易赢英伟达股票 bottom-fishing?

Sell Short Now $OPN With 20x Leverage Isolated...
Entry Zone: $0.188 - $0.192
TP 1: $0.175
TP 2: $0.160
TP 3: $0.145
TP 4: $0.125
SL: $0.225
Setup Logic: • Price is struggling to establish acceptance above the $0.19 resistance area
• Recent recovery lacks strong momentum, indicating weak buyer conviction
• Sellers remain active near current levels, increasing rejection probability
• Risk-to-reward favors shorts while price remains below the $0.20-$0.205 resistance zone
• A breakdown below local support could trigger accelerated selling toward lower liquidity levels

$BTC lost a major support and the retest confirmed it as resistance.

Liquidity below the lows has already been swept.

If sellers stay in control, the next key zone sits around $58,200 - $59,500.

I never thought that 68K and 65K would be just paper-like.
So, 60k must break!
The overall direction today is still bearish; this morning's technical rebound from 61K confirms that the bottom has already been seen.
BTC and ETH are both in a daily + 4-hour resonance of decline; although there was a rebound due to deep sell-offs in the short term, based on structure, order flow, and liquidation distribution, the rebound seems more like providing liquidity for the bears above rather than a trend reversal point.
As of now, ETH and BTC have intraday lows of 61,503 and 1,730.46 respectively.
On a macro level, the external environment is currently unfriendly: ETF outflows continue + Strategy's first coin sales + Mt. Gox coin transfers + Binance's industry expansion with US stocks/ETF trading上线. Meanwhile, the US May ADP employment increased by 122k, the ISM Services PMI rose to 54.5, and the input price index increased to 71.3, all reinforcing the expectation that "interest rates will stay high longer."
The US May non-farm employment report will be released at 8:30 on June 5, so in the next couple of days, the market is likely to continue being disturbed by employment data and the USD/US Treasury yield.
Therefore, in trading, the summary is:
$BTC Rebound shorting is preferred.
As long as it doesn't stabilize again above 65.8K-66.2K, treat it as a correction within the downtrend.
In the short term, watch whether the rebound to around 65K / 65.8K / 67K will be suppressed again.
$ETH Similarly, rebound shorting is preferred.
As long as it doesn't stabilize again above 1835-1860, continue to treat it as a weak rebound.
In the short term, watch 1820-1835, and a stronger level is 1850-1865.

In May, the number of crypto VC investments dropped to about 50 deals, hitting a new low since 2021. Funding activity in the two hot sectors of infrastructure and crypto financial services is also approaching multi-year lows. As a large amount of capital flows into AI, the crypto industry is experiencing a project screening period. For teams with genuine products and growth, the competition is actually much less than in previous years. #Crypto #VC #AI #Web3
