HYPE at $41, do you dare to buy the dip?

Whales are still accumulating, the platform earns $2.2 million a day, 97% used for buybacks and burns— but just now, CME teamed up with ICE to pressure the CFTC, claiming it "manipulates oil prices," causing a flash crash of 9%. Arthur Hayes publicly supports it, on-chain TVL remains steady at $5.4 billion— is this a golden opportunity, or is regulation about to crack down hard?

First look at the surface: fundamentals are as solid as stone.

In the past 30 days, it’s up 8%, 24-hour trading volume hits $500 million, market cap ranks in the top 13, with 30% room to reach all-time highs. The candlestick chart shows: 50-day MA golden cross 200-day MA, an intact upward channel, MACD about to make a second golden cross, RSI neutral leaning bullish.

First thing: earning $2.2 million a day, 97% used for buybacks and burns.

Hyperliquid’s 24-hour fee income of $2.2 million exceeds most L1 blockchains’ daily gas fees. Weekly revenue once hit $14 million, second only to Solana. 97% of net income directly used to buy back and burn HYPE.

Second thing: CME and ICE joint complaint actually proves its value.

Why is regulation targeting it? Because Hyperliquid’s oil perpetual contracts with $700 million daily trading volume are starting to influence traditional market pricing.

Arthur Hayes has publicly countered, on-chain data remains steady as ever, TVL at $5.47 billion, net inflow continues positive. This.

Third thing: a technical signal that must be taken seriously.

HIP-4 prediction market launched, Pre-IPO perpetual trading is hot, HyperEVM is about to explode. But don’t forget—price dropped from $59 to $41, a 30% decline, RSI still in neutral zone, indicating bulls haven’t fully gained momentum.

One side is:

- 24h revenue $2.2 million, 97% buyback and burn, deflationary nuclear bomb

- TVL $5.47 billion, accounting for 30% of the decentralized perpetual market

- 50-day MA golden cross 200-day MA, mid-term bullish confirmed

- Arthur Hayes + institutional ETF rumors, narrative at full throttle

The other side is:

- CME, ICE joint pressure, regulatory FUD spreading

- Federal Reserve high interest rates, risk assets under pressure

- Price still 30% below ATH, short-term volatility

- Circulating supply low, FDV near $40 billion, dilution pressure

Key level at $41, this is the bottom line for bulls and bears, also the main players’ cost zone.

Resistance above: $45 → $50 → $59 (ATH)

Support below: $38-39 → $34-32 (strong support)

Short-term players:

Wait for a dip back to $38-39.5 before entering, stop-loss at $36.5, first target to take half profit at $45. After breaking $45, chase longs, stop-loss at $41, target $50-55.

Swing traders:

Wait for daily close above $45 before entering, use dynamic take-profit to hold, target $55-65, avoid being shaken out.

Long-term believers:

DCA below $41 in batches. HYPE is the most solid “cash flow + deflation” asset by 2026, with a year-end target of $65-80+, betting on Hyperliquid taking 1% of the traditional derivatives market. But remember—if regulation really turns into a black swan, don’t hold, reduce positions for lower risk.

HYPE now is like SOL in 2024—

99% of people think “regulation will target it,” but every FUD is an entry opportunity, then watch it rise from $20 to $200.

At $41, are you cutting losses or quietly adding positions? #Gate广场五月交易分享 #CLARITY法案参议院通关 $HYPE $BTC $ETH

$500 ZEC—are you still waiting for a pullback?

Just 24 hours ago, it was still standing at $523, and the group was full of “privacy spring has arrived.” Now at 499, after falling below the $500 mark, an 8.3% drop directly smashes through the psychological defense line. A whale opened nearly $900,000 worth of short positions at $523, precisely targeting the high. With the Grayscale ETF application still underway, Robinhood has just launched, and quantum-resistant wallets haven’t been “warmed up” yet—yet the dog trader has already made the move first.

First, look at the surface: it’s up 3x—so what if there’s a pullback?

From just over 300 at the end of April to 550+ on May 6, it surged 30% in a single day, doubling within the month. Market cap climbed to $8.3 billion, holding steady in the top 15. The news flow is all bullish: SEC case closed, Grayscale’s ETF application, Multicoin and Arthur Hayes’s funds heavily weighted, Shielded pool share hitting a record… but right now, the $500 integer level has been pierced directly by a single bearish candle.

First thing: institutions are buying, but the whale is shorting.

A large wallet built a short position of nearly $900,000 around $523, precisely parked at the historical high zone. Meanwhile, over the past 24 hours there have been continuous large-scale net outflows, and selling pressure is clearly visible. ZEC fell from $550 to $499, down nearly 10%, and trading volume has not noticeably shrunk.

Second thing: $500 is a line between life and death—and it has already been broken.

The most brutal thing in the technicals: support levels are meant to be defended, not just watched.

RSI drops below 5—you didn’t read it wrong, it’s 5, not 50. This is extreme overselling within extreme oversold conditions. In theory, a violent rebound could happen at any time, but the prerequisite is: shorts are willing to close their positions.

Support is at 480; below that is 470–450. Resistance overhead is 513–517.

Third thing: all the good news is there, but the market doesn’t care.

ETF applications, PoS transition, ZSA privacy DeFi, quantum-resistant wallets—none of these are fake news. The problem is, in 2026 the market’s patience for “future positives” is only 3 days.

On one side:

- Market cap $8.3 billion, absolute leader among privacy coins

- SEC compliance + ETF expectations, institutions’ first choice

- Shielded pool share 30%+; real usage hits record highs

- Long-term trend lined up bullishly; pullbacks are opportunities

On the other side:

- Break below the $500 psychological level

- The whale’s $900,000 short position is set up as backup

- 24h net outflows keep increasing

- RSI breaks below 5; extreme oversold, but still falling

Key level: 499—bulls and bears decide life and death right here.

Resistance above: 513–517 → 521–529 → 550–570

Support below: 488–480 → 470 → 450 (final line of defense)

If you want to buy the dip:

Wait for a 1-hour timeframe to form a high-volume bullish engulfing pattern over a bearish candle, or for RSI to turn upward from single digits—then try a small long position. Stop loss is 495 (leave if it closes below); first target 513, second target 521.

If you got trapped earlier:

Don’t panic and cut at the bottom. When RSI hits 5, historically it means violent rebounds always show up, even if only briefly. When the rebound reaches the 510–520 zone, cut your position by half and keep the other half.

Die-hard long-term believers:

DCA in batches below 480, targeting a year-end price of 600–850. Privacy coins’ volatility is 3–5 times that of BTC, so don’t let your total position exceed 15%.

ZEC’s current situation is like LUNA in 2021—

It’s not the fundamentals, but the market sentiment that “all good news can’t stop a single bearish candle.”

The difference is: LUNA’s bottom was 0, and ZEC’s bottom is the compliant privacy leader with an $8.3 billion market cap. #Gate广场五月交易分享 #CLARITY法案参议院通关 $BTC $ETH $ZEC

ETH at $2168, do you dare to buy the dip?

Glamsterdam upgrade just went live, on-chain gas fees were cut by 78%, BlackRock bought $250 million in three days— but just now, ETFs have been outflowing $255 million for five consecutive days, large investors dumped 240k ETH on exchanges, and the price dropped from $2300 to $2168.

First, look at the surface: the upgrade is implemented, gas fees plummeted, institutions are bullish.

In the past 7 days, it’s up 6.2%, over the past 30 days, down 15%, market cap remains at $262 billion, ranking second. Glamsterdam increased execution capacity threefold, Layer 2 fees dropped another 70%, institutions like BlackRock have flowed in over $250 million in the past three days, and SharpLink announced a $2 billion ETH treasury.

The first point: Glamsterdam is a real positive, but the market is playing “buy the rumor, sell the fact.”

The largest upgrade in Ethereum history, gas fees down 78%, Layer 1 throughput tripled. If this were 2024, ETH could easily hit $3000.

But this time is different. The upgrade news has been hyped since last year, institutions have already positioned themselves early. By the time it officially launched in May, those who wanted to buy already did, leaving only short-term profit-taking dumps.

The second point: ETFs have been outflowing $255 million for five days, but big players are secretly accumulating.

On the surface, US spot ETF funds are leaving, with a net outflow of over $240k last week, and another five days of continuous outflows this week.

But look at the on-chain data—large treasuries and infrastructure companies have bought over 244k ETH recently, worth over $500 million.

The third point: technicals are already oversold, but no reversal signals have appeared.

RSI has reached extremely oversold levels, and historically, such levels have a over 70% chance of rebounding within a week.

MACD is still accelerating downward, bearish momentum remains strong. Price has broken below all major moving averages, and the short-term trend is still dominated by bears.

On one side:

- Glamsterdam upgrade is live, gas fees down 78%, ecosystem on the brink of explosion

- Institutions bought $250 million in three days, corporate treasuries added $2 billion

- 3.6 million ETH queued for staking, supply locked

- RSI oversold, historical rebound probability over 70%

On the other side:

- ETF outflows of $255 million for five days

- Large investors dumped 240k ETH on exchanges

- Macro inflation at 3.3%, Fed not cutting rates, liquidity tight

- Price below all moving averages, bearish trend not over

Key level: $2168, the dividing line between bulls and bears.

Resistance above: $2200 → $2238 → $2300 (pre-upgrade high)

Support below: $2100 → $2000 (ultimate bottom)

Short-term traders:

Buy in batches around current $2168, stop-loss at $2050, first target $2238, second target $2300. Don’t chase highs, wait for volume-confirmed bullish candles before adding. If it breaks below $2100, stay on the sidelines, don’t hold against the trend.

Swing traders:

Wait for daily close above $2200 before entering, target $2382–$2400, after breakout, look for $2600.

Long-term believers:

Dollar-cost average in the $2000–$2200 range. ETH now has the strongest fundamentals in history: gas fees down, institutions in, staking locked. End of 2026 target: $3500–$4000, betting on application explosion from this upgrade.

In the short term, macro conditions are not easing, markets are not sunny. Don’t go all-in, keep some bullets.

ETH now is like BTC at the end of 2023—

Everyone knows it will rise long-term, but few can withstand a short-term 30% correction.

At $2168 ETH, do you dare to buy? If yes, be prepared for another 10% drop. If no, wait for $2000. But when it hits $2000, are you sure you dare to buy? #Gate广场五月交易分享 #CLARITY法案参议院通关 $BTC $ETH $SOL

ETC at $8.95, do you dare to buy the dip?

Whales account for 53% of trading volume, quietly accumulating, with a peak of $386k net inflow, countdown to the fifth halving, Olympia upgrade will soon introduce a burn mechanism— but just now, the price broke below $9, down another 4% in 24 hours, and the PoW sector has collectively gone cold.

First look at the surface: it's fallen into a daze, nobody wants it.

Current price is $8.95, down more than 94% from the 2021 high of $176. Market cap is less than $1.5 billion, ranking out of the top 50, with only $60 million in 24-hour trading volume. The candlestick chart tells you: far below the 99-period EMA, MACD at an extreme negative value, all technical indicators are shouting: don't touch, trash.

First thing: whales are accumulating, retail investors are cursing.

In the past few days, large accounts have net inflows of $386k, accounting for 53% of recent trading volume. Someone is secretly buying at this level, and doing so aggressively.

Whales are looking at halving + upgrade in half a year, while you see it dropping another 4% today.

Second thing: countdown to the fifth halving, this time is different.

ETC halves every two years. This year, from July to October, the "Fifthening" triggered, reducing block rewards from 2.048 to 1.6384 ETC, a 20% cut.

In the past, halving was just noise in the market. But this time, combined with the Olympia upgrade, which introduces a decentralized treasury + fee burning mechanism, directly comparable to ETH's EIP-1559.

Third thing: a huge contradictory signal appears on the technical front.

On one hand, the price fell below $9, MACD is extremely negative, and the PoW sector is generally abandoned by funds, looking hopeless.

On the other hand, daily and monthly charts still show an 8.52% increase, in a mild rebound channel. $9 has been a multiple bounce point historically, a strong support level, whales are accumulating at this position.

One side is:

- Countdown to the fifth halving (each halving historically triggers a pulse rebound)

- Olympia upgrade brings burn mechanism + treasury, solving the ecological cash problem

- Whales account for 53% of volume, secretly accumulating

- Fixed supply + PoW security verified for ten years, true "digital gold"

The other side is:

- TVL is almost zero, developers have fled

- Price down 94%, retail faith is dead

- Market attention is on ETH L2 and RWA, nobody mentions ETC

- Macro tightening, high-beta small coins are most vulnerable

Key level: $9.00, the last face-off between bulls and bears.

Resistance above: $10.5-12 (short-term breakout zone) → $26.5 (mid-term pressure)

Support below: $8.5-8.0 (psychological + historical trading dense zone), breaking below $8 is game over.

Short-term traders:

Wait for $9 to confirm support + volume-increasing bullish candle before entering, stop-loss at $8.0, first target $10.5, second target $12-15.

Swing traders:

Buy in batches below or at $9, with no more than 10% of total funds. Target $15-20 before and after Olympia upgrade, stop-loss set at $7.8.

Long-term believers:

Only one type of person should hold ETC—you truly believe in PoW fundamentalism, willing to hold for two years betting on Olympia igniting the ecosystem. Target $30-50 by 2027, but it may be halved twice in between, can you withstand that?

ETC now is like LTC in 2020—

Everyone thought it was dead, but before the halving, it surged from $40 to $200 in three months.

At $9 ETC, you curse it to zero, while whales quietly add positions.

$0.11 DOGE—do you dare to buy the dip?

Whales are still picking up coins. ETF net inflows are $5.5 million every week. The X Payments beta just launched—yet right now, DOGE has seen a net outflow of $3.45 million in one hour. The price has been dumped straight to $0.1101, down 4.3% over the past 24 hours. A 10x leveraged long position on 20 million DOGE has its liquidation level at $0.10284. So is this wave a golden pit—or the eve of a chain reaction of liquidations?

First, look at the surface: there’s a stack of good news, but the price doesn’t rise—it falls instead.

In the past 30 days, it’s up 14%; over the year, up 51%. A market cap of $17 billion keeps it steady in the top ten. MyDoge Wallet V3 launched, DogeOS raised $6.9 million, the DOGE-1 mission got updated, and the X Payments beta—on the headlines, it’s all “about to take off.” But when you open the candlestick chart, the price is still ranging around $0.11. Last week it surged to $0.115 and then got slammed back down.

First thing: regulators issued DOGE a “good citizen” certificate.

In March, the SEC/CFTC officially classified DOGE as a digital commodity/collectible, not a security. The CLARITY Act is up for review in the Senate, and market expectations for ETF approval are rising sharply. Grayscale’s DOGE product was already regularized, and there are also physical ETP listings in Europe.

Second thing: whales and institutions are really buying with real money.

Dogecoin Treasury is heading toward 1 billion coins in holdings, and large holders frequently show up with leveraged long positions. Last week’s ETF net inflow was $5.5 million, and institutional capital is quietly moving in. CleanCore keeps buying, and cross-industry hype catalysts—like mergers in mining and healthcare—are also coming into play.

Third thing: short-term funds are running, and leveraged longs are getting close to getting wiped out.

USDT trading volume has surged by $20 million. A 10x long with 20 million DOGE has its liquidation line at $0.10284. The current price is $0.1101—only 7 points away from liquidation.

On one side:

- Clear regulation, ETF expectations heating up

- Whales adding to positions, institutional net inflows

- Ecosystem implementation (payments, wallets, mining)

- Up 14% in 30 days, an upward trend

On the other side:

- Net outflow of $3.45 million in one hour

- Down 4.3% over 24 hours

- A 10x leveraged long on 20 million DOGE hanging by a thread

- RSI at only 13.5—extremely oversold, but still falling

The key level is $0.11. Below that, $0.10284 is the long liquidation grinder.

Resistance above: $0.112–$0.115 → $0.135 → $0.15

Support below: $0.108 → $0.105 → $0.1028 (liquidation line) → $0.10 (psychological level)

For short-term traders:

Watch whether $0.108–$0.109 can hold. If it holds, try a small long position with a stop loss at $0.105. If the price straight-up breaks below $0.105, don’t touch it—wait until $0.1028 is liquidated and then reassess.

For swing traders:

Wait for the daily close to hold above $0.112 before getting in, targeting $0.135–$0.15. Don’t go all-in at $0.11—what’s below is blood from leveraged longs.

For long-term believers:

Dollar-cost average below $0.10. The DOGE ETF narrative + expectations of Elon’s hype: seeing $0.20–$0.30 by the end of 2026 isn’t a dream. Don’t make friends with leverage, and don’t catch falling knives in the liquidation zone.

Right now, DOGE is like Dogecoin in early 2021—

Everyone is waiting for Elon to tweet, but the smart money has already buried their positions below $0.10.

The day the 10x long at $0.10284 gets wiped out—that’s when the whales come in to finish the cleanup. #Gate广场五月交易分享 #CLARITY法案参议院通关 $BTC $ETH $DOGE

$BTC is still in a retracement phase after getting rejected from higher levels.

Price already broke below the short-term uptrend channel, which shows momentum has weakened for now. If sellers stay in control, the next major support area I’m watching sits around $75,800. That level could become an important reaction zone.

Right now, there’s no reason to force trades in the middle of uncertainty. The market feels slow, and chasing random moves here can get punished fast.

For me, it’s simple:
Watching how next week opens.
Watching whether buyers step in near support.
Waiting for confirmation before making the next move.

Sometimes the best trade is staying patient while the market shows its hand.

I was just an ordinary office worker before, and in 2020 I first heard about TRON.
At that time, there was a lot of online buzz, I didn’t understand anything, and I just followed others to criticize and thought it was an "air project."
Back then, $TRX price was between $0.02–$0.03, and some people around me bought a small amount, I even mocked them for being "liquidated."
In 2021, I started doing cross-border fund transfers, frequently transferring USDT.

BTC has broken through 80k and has been consolidating at high levels, with trading volume also increasing, clearly indicating no new funds are coming in to take over. Most altcoins are half-dead, and both the US stock market and the Chinese A-shares are also bleeding. Plus, with the current bear market environment, weekly resistance plus the realization of good news, it's obvious that the rally is mainly a bull trap.
Wait for one more push to give a good entry point, then it's time to set up short positions.

Nasdaq hasn't opened yet, but on-chain already gave Wall Street a big surprise

The most valuable thing on Wall Street isn't stocks, it's those few seconds before the market opens.

Who can set the price before the opening, who is the market leader. In the past, this power belonged only to investment banks and exchanges. Now? It’s been directly taken on-chain.

AI chip company Cerebras went public last month. Nasdaq priced it at $185, but it surged to $350 at the open. Impressive, right?

But the real players—on-chain trading platform Trade xyz—had already opened perpetual contracts for CBRS two weeks before the listing. Before the open, the price had already reached $290, $130 above the issuance price.

Nasdaq's bell hadn't rung yet, but the price was already “discovered” on-chain.

The opening price of traditional exchanges has become the on-chain price confirmation.

SpaceX is about to go public, on June 12, with a valuation of $1.75 trillion. The largest IPO in U.S. history.

Reuters even said: On-chain, this time, they will definitely race ahead again.

Elon Musk’s followers, hundreds of millions worldwide, are watching SpaceX. Nasdaq retail investors can only wait for the open. On-chain? They opened Pre-IPO contracts two weeks early, getting in first.

Wall Street folks are getting anxious. CME and ICE teamed up to complain to the CFTC, accusing Hyperliquid of market manipulation and lacking KYC.

And what happened?

Hyperliquid didn’t hide. They directly sent people flying to Washington to meet with bipartisan lawmakers, discussing compliance under the CLARITY Act framework.

From “barbarians” to “wearing suits and entering Congress proactively.”

On-chain isn’t just scraping by on the edge; it’s officially getting licensed, preparing to enter the main hall.

“Nasdaq sells ‘you can only trade with me,’ on-chain sells ‘you get in early with me.’ The former charges tolls, the latter sets the starting line.”

A week before SpaceX’s open, on-chain prices were already 20% higher than investment banks’ pricing. Do you choose on-chain or Nasdaq? #Gate广场五月交易分享 #CLARITY法案参议院通关 $BTC $ETH
