Learn to draw soulful artworks from scratch! The most popular Scribbli rough style raw images right now
Prompt words, take them freely:
Use the attached picture, redraw it in a clumsy to the point of absurdity, and a chaotic to the point of collapse style. The background should be white, looking like it was casually dragged out with a mouse in Windows Paint. The overall should barely resemble the original image, but not quite, a sort of ambiguous, matching but all misaligned, with a pixel-by-pixel jittery low-quality feel, emphasizing an absurd, poor-quality hand-drawn effect.
Actually, never mind, do whatever you want with the drawing.

Satoshi's coffin lid can't be held down in Las Vegas

Las Vegas, under neon lights, suited up.

On stage, a hedge fund manager from Wall Street, with a PPT that reads: "Bitcoin: The New Digital Gold for Institutions."

In the audience, thunderous applause.

ETF is not adoption; it’s the opposite of adoption.

I know what you're going to say: "Isn't ETF bringing in incremental funds?"

Yes, pigs also bring in incremental feed.

And then? Be slaughtered.

What is the essence of ETF?

It’s making you no longer hold the private keys, but hold "Bitcoin stocks."

Satoshi clearly wrote back then:

“I’ve developed a new electronic cash system that’s fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party.”

No trusted third party.

And ETF?

It’s full of third parties.

Custodians, exchanges, underwriters, SEC...

You think you're getting on board, but actually you're chained up on the chain.

ETF makes ordinary people buy Bitcoin but can no longer use Bitcoin.

Outside the venue, I met an old miner.

He said something that sent a chill down my spine:

“Do you know why we sell? It’s not because we’re pessimistic.

It’s because we realize that now, the pricing power of Bitcoin is no longer in our hands.

We mine a block, but BNY Mellon tweets out a message.

So why stay? To be a mascot?”

What was the soul of early Bitcoin?

It was that everyone was a node, everyone had a vote.

And now?

You hold one Bitcoin, and BNY Mellon holds a million Bitcoin—are your “decentralized voting rights” the same?

No, you don’t even have voting rights.

Satoshi’s vision is not dead.

It’s still in every Raspberry Pi running a full node,

In every transaction buying coffee over the Lightning Network,

In every “old stubborn” holding onto their private keys instead of handing them to third parties.

But it’s buried.

Not by bad actors, but by those who mean well.

ETFs, corporate holdings, government reserves—each sounds reasonable,

But together, they form a gentle control net.

So, the question isn’t “Will Bitcoin go to zero?”

Bitcoin will never go to zero.

The question is: Will Bitcoin still be that “trust no one” Bitcoin?

#AI isn’t just hype anymore.
US GDP from computers & electronics just went parabolic driven by AI chips, data centers, and compute demand.
This is infrastructure phase.
And infrastructure is where real money starts.
The cycle hasn’t even fully priced this in yet.

Week 10 of the U.S.-Iran blockade: Brent crude at 126, a four-year high.

The UAE withdraws from OPEC.

Trump authorizes an assessment of a military strike.

Oil prices surge, shipping is barely hanging on, and Iran relies on crypto channels to bypass sanctions...

When you pull up the candlestick chart, you see:

Bitcoin—neither crashes nor rockets, just awkwardly stuck around 77100.

Why?

Why are gold rising, U.S. stocks rising, and the VIX not spiking, but BTC isn’t following the “safe-haven script”?

Do you think an oil price surge = market panic = money flooding into Bitcoin?

Wrong.

The truth is: oil price → inflation expectations → interest rates bearing down → growth stocks and BTC are pinned firmly under the “ceiling.”

U.S. 10-year Treasury yield: 4.39%

BTC funding rate is negative

VIX is only 16.89—so the market isn’t actually in “panic.”

What does that mean?

The market isn’t afraid of war; it’s afraid that oil prices will reignite inflation and the Fed will never cut rates.

War isn’t what’s scary. What’s scary is that after the war, you still have to face interest rates of 4.5%.

Bitcoin not rising along with the market? Because it’s not a safe-haven asset—it’s a prisoner of interest rates.

What you’re seeing isn’t the third world war—it’s a rehearsal for the third round of re-inflation.

Oil up ≠ Bitcoin up

Inflation expectations ≠ risk-off sentiment

Interest rates above 4.5% ≠ a BTC bull market

BTC’s current script isn’t “digital gold”; it’s “a high-leverage little brother of Nasdaq.”

Nasdaq is suppressed by interest rates, so it gets suppressed by interest rates too.

When Nasdaq rises, it follows a bit.

When Nasdaq falls, it kneels faster than anyone.

The Middle East is clearly exploding, and oil is rising—but you don’t know whether to buy BTC or run.

The thrill is that once you understand: this isn’t war trading; it’s an inflation trade.

The real money isn’t betting on “whether there will be war,” but on “how long it takes for oil prices to push interest rates back up to 5%.”

Stop letting “safe-haven” fool you.

Bitcoin right now is just a wage worker who eats based on the mood of interest rates.

As long as oil doesn’t die and rates don’t fall, BTC won’t fly.

[October 25, 2025] Vice Mayor of Chongqing Jiang Duntao is under investigation.

[March 20, 2026] Mayor of Chongqing Hu Henghua is under investigation.

[April 14] Businessman Lin Kechuang (son-in-law of Lin Xiucheng) is taken away.

[April 17] Chongqing Municipal Party Standing Committee Member and Liangjiang New Area Party Secretary Luo Lin is under investigation.

[April 19] "Red-top lawyer" Peng Jing is taken away by the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection.

[April 30] Caixin exposes key details of Peng Jing’s case: USDT money laundering, 210 million yuan red envelope, on-chain tracking of the entire chain revealed.

I. The spark: Chongqing Vice Mayor Jiang Duntao falls

Who is Jiang Duntao? Vice Mayor of Chongqing. After his fall, the tone from Chongqing’s disciplinary inspection and supervision authorities clearly changed.

Why? Because behind Vice Mayor Jiang’s case is a long-standing official interest ecosystem, where some use USDT to get around doors and launder money. This breakthrough isn’t from traditional discipline inspection or supervisory covert investigations, but—someone used USDT, with clear on-chain receipts.

It directly exposed the internal corruption chain.

II. Chongqing Mayor Hu Henghua is under investigation

The news came out on March 20, with the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and National Supervisory Commission’s website directly announcing: Hu Henghua is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law, and is under investigation.

That afternoon, Chongqing Municipal Party Committee held an emergency standing committee meeting, chaired by Party Secretary Yuan Jiajun, with a unified stance: “Resolutely support the decisions of the Party Central Committee.”

On the surface, it was swift and resolute, but look deeper: the mayor is under investigation, and it’s during his term—this is no small matter. Hu Henghua’s rank is significant; he was transferred from Hunan in 2019, previously a Standing Committee Member of Hunan Provincial Party Committee and Executive Vice Governor, having served in Chongqing for over a term. On the day he was taken down, Chongqing made a public announcement directly.*

III. Businessman Lin Kechuang is taken away

The key point: after Hu Henghua’s investigation, the scope of the disciplinary and supervisory control quickly expanded. On April 14, Lin Xiucheng’s son-in-law—businessman Lin Kechuang—was taken away by relevant authorities.

Then, after Hu’s cold wallet was controlled, authorities traced the funds from his USDT wallet address, easily tracking the flow to six other cold wallets owned by Lin. According to sources, Lin paid a total of 30.8 million USDT to Hu, roughly 210 million yuan, but among them, 10 million USDT (about 67.5 million yuan) was “exchange fee”—a middleman turnover cost to mask the transaction.

IV. Chongqing Municipal Party Standing Committee Member Luo Lin is under investigation

On April 17, the Central Commission for Discipline Inspection and National Supervisory Commission announced again—Chongqing Municipal Standing Committee Member and Liangjiang New Area Party Secretary Luo Lin is suspected of serious violations of discipline and law.

Hu Henghua fell on March 20, Luo Lin on April 17, less than a month apart. After controlling Hu Henghua’s cold wallet, authorities traced the on-chain funds and precisely located Luo Lin.

Sources say Luo Lin was already taken away on April 14, with the official announcement on April 17. What’s the difference of these three days? It’s information control—because investigations need to race against time and evidence destruction. Luo Lin’s cold wallet was hidden with a third party, but was directly seized by authorities.

This means every transaction stored in USDT was fully traceable on the blockchain. A tiny cold wallet, the size of a fingernail, brought down half of Chongqing’s officialdom—from the mayor to the standing committee members, to businessmen.

V. "Red-top female lawyer" Peng Jing is taken away

Caixin revealed heavy details on May 1, 2026—National Committee Member of the Chinese People’s Political

🚨 BITCOIN IS TRADING BELOW LITERALLY EVERY KEY ON CHAIN LEVELS RIGHT NOW.
Price is around $75.7K, sitting below short-term holder cost at $78.9K and true market mean at $78K.
That means most recent buyers are still under pressure.
The next major level above is $85K (active investor mean), which is acting as resistance.
But on the downside, long-term support is still strong at $54K realized price.
This is a critical zone where Bitcoin decides if it recovers or stays under pressure.

$SOL at $83, are you bottom fishing?

Monthly active addresses hit 167 million, a record high, Meta pays creators in USDC, South Korea’s 28 million cardholders are going on-chain, Alpenglow upgrades to reduce transaction times to 150 milliseconds— but what about the price? Dropped from 88 to 83, a 4.3% decline in a week, MACD still lying below the zero line.

First, look at the surface: price is falling, people are panicking.

In the past 24 hours, SOL dropped from 83.85 to 83.21, a 0.76% decline, not big but annoying. Daily chart swings between 82 and 88, like someone pressed underwater, just catching a breath then pushed down again.

Technical indicators are fighting:

- MACD remains below zero, negative histogram shows selling pressure persists.

- RSI rebounded from 21.06 to 55.54, indicating oversold buying interest is coming in, but not strongly enough.

- Key support: 82 is the first line, breaking below means heading to 80, and if 80 breaks, directly towards 77.6 or even 67-73.

First thing: ecosystem data exploded, but no one mentions it.

In April, SOL’s monthly active holders reached 167 million, a new high. New addresses grew over 35%.

Second thing: institutions and giants are quietly paving the way.

- South Korean Card: 28 million cardholders in Korea are collaborating with Solana on stablecoin payments.

- Meta: paying USDC wages to creators in Colombia and the Philippines on Solana.

- Western Union: stablecoins landing on Solana.

- Alpenglow upgrade: soon reducing finality from 12 seconds to 150 milliseconds.

Third thing: valuation is undervalued, but no one talks about it.

SOL’s current TVL is about $5.4 billion, 24-hour DEX trading volume is $1.32 billion, leading across the chain. Daily transaction count is 81.28 million, with 2.28 million active addresses.

On-chain real usage already surpasses all public chains except Ethereum.

But what about market cap? $47.9 billion, ranked 7th.

One side: 167M monthly active users, $5.4 billion TVL, giants lining up, upgrades coming.

Other side: price at 83, MACD bearish, market hedging risks, retail panic.

Key level: 82, the last bottom line for bulls and bears.

Short-term traders:

Around 83 or a retest of 82-80 to confirm support, lightly go long. Stop-loss strictly at 78. Target 90-92, breakouts look toward 95-105. Keep position under 10%, leverage no more than 3x.

Mid-term traders: buy on dips in batches. Alpenglow landing + macro improvement (BTC breaking 78K or Fed pivot) are catalysts. Target 100-120, stop-loss below 70.

Long-term traders:

Hold heavily or dollar-cost average. Spot + staking, avoid high leverage. Target 200-300+.

SOL now is like ETH in 2021—data exploding, adoption booming, but price pressed to the ground. Those who cut losses at $2000 ETH later regretted it bitterly. #Polymarket每日热点 $SOL
