California’s Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) just came out swinging against the SEC, blasting its rules that ease fundraising for crypto projects (up to $75M) and provide a safe harbor, saying they weaken state-level oversight and let fraudsters run wild. Honestly, America’s federal-state power struggle is getting more and more interesting. On the surface, California is protesting in the name of protecting retail investors, but in reality, it’s upset that the SEC has crossed the line and taken away the state government’s tax revenue and influence.

At an APR price of $0.037, would you still dare to buy?
The one-year lockup cliff just hit, and 92.8 million tokens flooded the market like a tidal wave. The price plunged straight from 0.05 to 0.022, more than halving twice. Then it surged 50% in 24 hours, bouncing back to 0.037. Is this the shorts’ last chance to cover and escape, or yet another trap set by market manipulators to dump on buyers?
First, the surface picture: brutal, but exciting.
It’s down more than 70% over the past 30 days, falling from its all-time high of 0.7 to the current 0.037—a drop of over 90%. The daily RSI is just 31, in oversold territory. But after the unlock, the price violently rebounded from lows of 0.022–0.028, reaching a 24-hour high of 0.047–0.054. The daily moving averages are bearishly aligned, with the price far below the 50-day and 200-day averages. A rebound is a rebound; a trend is a trend. They’re two different things.
First: This was the biggest unlock in history, and the selling pressure may not have been fully absorbed yet.
On October 23, the one-year cliff expired. Early investors and core contributors received about 92.8 million APR, around 33% of the circulating supply at the time—and some estimates put it even higher, at 120 million+.
A third of the new tokens suddenly flooded the market, with holders’ cost basis potentially far lower than you can imagine.
Second: TVL is only $250,000. The fundamentals are paper-thin.
APR is positioned as MEV infrastructure and liquid staking for the Monad ecosystem. Sounds impressive, right?
But TVL is around $250,000. You read that right. $250,000. Even a moderately large retail account has more money locked up than this protocol.
Real yield is almost negligible, and the token’s utility is mainly governance and incentives. Holdings are highly concentrated, with obvious whale positions, and liquidity is paper-thin.
BTC has a market cap in the trillions, and ETH is worth over $200 billion. APR’s market cap is only in the $13–20 million range. Market makers need only a few million to push up a green candle—and only a few million to dump it with a red one.
Third: Technically, an oversold bounce doesn’t mean a trend reversal.
It rebounded short-term from 0.022–0.028, then pulled back after rising 50%–60% in 24 hours.
Support at 0.031–0.032 (near the 24-hour low), then 0.025 and 0.022 (strong support). Resistance at 0.040 (the pivot), then 0.045–0.048 and 0.054.
OI is up around 20%, to roughly $16 million. Funding rates are positive, with longs paying shorts. Longs make up 65%–70%.
Retail traders are chasing longs, and the trade is crowded. If the price breaks below 0.031, those chasing longs will face cascading liquidations, and the sell-off will move faster than you can run.
Bulls versus bears—you decide
On one side:
The unlock overhang has landed, and short-term selling pressure has been absorbed
The oversold rebound has strong momentum, with a surge in trading volume
The daily RSI is oversold, leaving room for a technical recovery
If the Monad ecosystem gains traction, the MEV narrative has room to run
On the other:
92.8 million unlocked tokens, and the selling pressure may be far from over
TVL is only $250,000, with virtually no real revenue
The daily chart remains bearish, with all the moving averages looming overhead
Positive funding rates + crowded longs mean an extremely high risk of a stampede
Whale holdings are highly concentrated, and they could dump at any time
Trading strategy
Short term (1–3 days):
A bearish approach is more prudent. If the rebound stalls at 0.040–0.045, especially with shrinking volume or falling OI, consider shorting, with targets at 0.032/0.028 and a stop-loss above 0.048.
Want to bet on a rebound? If it retests 0.032–0.034, holds firm, and volume rises without breaking lower, try a small long position, targeting 0.042–0.048, with a stop-loss below 0.030. If it breaks 0.030, exit without hesitation.
Range trading: Buy low and sell high between 0.032–0.045, use strict stop-losses, and don’t get greedy.
Medium term:
Wait and see. Only consider going long on the trend if the daily price holds firmly above 0.05 and TVL and the ecosystem show substantial improvement. Otherwise, keep selling the rallies or stay out and wait for lower levels (0.022–0.025).
APR is like the liveliest table in a casino right now—
The most people are watching, the bettors are going wild, but the only ones who always make money are the house.
You think this oversold bounce is a gift for you?
No, it’s the market maker’s last trial pass for you to use. #GateWCTCS9全球交易赛 #美股财报季 #BTC争夺8万美元关口 $BTC $ETH $APR

In 2011, he bought 10,000 $BTC at just $0.78 each.
He survived multiple market crashes and held for nearly 14 years without selling a single coin.
Then, in 2025, he sold his entire stack for over $1 billion.

BTC at $79,700, are you still waiting for the FOMC to save you?
Everyone is watching the Fed hold rates steady on October 28, but institutional ETF cost basis is $82,000 and already underwater—the real killer isn't rates, it's those 30 seconds when Warsh opens his mouth. Is this the final dip, or is $77,000 beckoning?
First, the surface: a pile of bearish factors, with price stuck in the middle.
From $86,000-$87,000 in early October, it has fallen all the way, breaking below the 50-day moving average at $81,000; short-term moving averages are bearishly aligned. Weak over 24 hours, volume expanded on the decline and contracted on the rebound. RSI 40-45, neutral to weak; MACD histogram is negative. At the lower edge of the descending channel, 79000 is the immediate make-or-break level.
First: ETF outflows don't mean institutions are running—they're waiting for cheaper coins
On October 22, daily outflows totaled $635 million, with $773 million combined over the surrounding two days, reversing the previous inflow trend. Sounds scary?
But look closely: US spot ETFs still hold more than 1.2 million BTC cumulatively; the long-term allocation thesis remains intact. Institutions' cost basis is roughly $81,000-$84,000, while the current price is $79,700—they're already sitting on unrealized losses.
81200-82000 is both the 50-day moving average and the ETF cost zone, as well as former support turned resistance. A rebound here will be hit by both breakeven sellers and institutional trimming.
Second: A Fed hold is a foregone conclusion; Powell's words are the hidden landmine
The market is widely expecting rates to remain unchanged on October 27-28, with odds above 85-90%. This is already priced in and won't surprise you.
The real variables are:
Whether the statement's wording is hawkish, hinting at the possibility of another rate hike in December;
Warsh's tone at the press conference—even one “inflation remains sticky” would make risk assets tremble;
September PCE data on October 29, the Fed's more closely watched inflation gauge, will follow immediately to deliver another blow.
Third: There's only one technical level worth watching—79000
The daily chart has fallen from $86,000-$87,000, making lower highs and lower lows, breaking below the 50-day moving average, with short-term moving averages bearishly aligned. The weekly chart remains in a medium-term uptrend, but only if key support holds.
Immediate support: 79,200-79,500
Key support: 78,500-79,100 → 77,600 (near the True Market Mean) → 77,000-76,000
Immediate resistance: 80,200-80,800 → 81,200-82,000 (50-day moving average + ETF cost zone) → 83,000-84,500
Only if 79000 holds and price reclaims 80500 on strong volume is there a chance to test 82000; if 79000 breaks and the move is confirmed, 78000 or even 77600 is waiting below.
The bulls and bears are facing off—judge for yourself
On one side:
Cumulative ETF holdings exceed 1.2 million BTC; the institutional adoption thesis remains intact
The weekly chart's medium-term uptrend remains in place, with strong support at 77000-78000
Some leveraged longs have already been liquidated, easing short-term selling pressure
If the FOMC is neutral to dovish, sentiment may recover
On the other:
Daily ETF outflows of $635 million show institutional risk appetite has declined in the short term
Price has fallen below the 50-day moving average, with short-term moving averages bearishly aligned
A concentration of underwater holders at 81200-82000 means any rebound will face resistance
Middle East geopolitics + oil prices + US Treasury yields are hitting risk assets
Trading strategy
Conservative players (recommended):
Don't bet heavily on direction before the FOMC. Trade the 79000-80500 range, selling high and buying low; go lightly long on a high-volume break above 80500, with a stop below 79000; if 79000 breaks, stay on the sidelines or go lightly short, targeting 78000-77500, with a stop above 80000.
Aggressive bulls:
Scale into buys at 78800-79500, with a stop below 78500, a first target of 82000, and a second target of 84500. But remember: this isn't bottom-fishing; it's a rebound trade.
Short strategy:
If a rebound to 80800-81500 is rejected and a bearish candlestick appears, consider a light short, with a stop at 82500 and targets at 79500-78500.
Keep leverage below 5-10x, and risk no more than 1-2% of total capital per trade
If 77000 breaks and outflows continue, the medium-term correction could extend to $75,000
BTC now looks like a replay of the period after its October 2025 ATH—
When it was at 126,000, everyone was calling for “200,000”; now at 79,700, everyone is calling for “70,000 next.”
What hasn't changed is the cycle; what has changed is your emotions.

In the Web3 industry, trading is one thing; having a convenient way to move funds in and out is another.
Gate Money brings fiat and crypto asset management together in the Gate App. One feature worth noting is the USD same-name account. This article explains how to open an account, deposit funds, and transfer funds back to your own bank account.
Simply put, Gate Money is an all-in-one financial services module within the Gate App. It supports fiat and crypto asset management, deposits and withdrawals, conversions, and payments, with no need to download a separate app.
The USD same-name account allows eligible users to receive bank transfers through an account whose name matches their verified identity.
How to Open a USD Same-Name Account
The exact entry point may vary depending on your region, account eligibility, and app version. In general, follow these steps:
Go to Gate Money: Open the Gate App and go to the Money page on the home screen.
Select USD Deposit: Tap Add (Deposit) to go to the USD deposit page.
Apply for a dedicated account: Find the Bank Transfer (SWIFT) option, tap Next, and confirm activation.
Verify your personal information: Confirm your name, ID details, and residential address as required, and make sure they match your actual information.
Check the activation status: Once the account is activated, confirm that the page displays your name and the corresponding bank receiving details.
Fee reminder: Available information states that the USD same-name account has a management fee of 2 USDT/month, which is waived for VIP5 and above. Refer to the latest fee information shown on the activation page.
How to Deposit and Transfer Funds with Gate Money
1. Deposit funds into Gate Money from a bank
The process is simple:
Step 1: Go to Gate Money → Add → USD to view the receiving details for your dedicated account.
Step 2: Copy the recipient name, bank account number, SWIFT/BIC, and other details provided on the page.
Step 3: Open your bank app or online banking and select an international wire or SWIFT transfer.
Step 4: Enter the recipient details shown on the page, select USD, and verify the transfer amount, fees, and purpose.
Step 5: Confirm that the information is correct and submit the transfer. Save the transfer receipt and wait for the funds to arrive.
You can also deposit USDT through an exchange and convert it to USD to complete the deposit.
International transfers may incur fees from the sending, intermediary, and receiving banks. Processing times may also be affected by bank procedures, holidays, compliance reviews, and other factors.
2. Withdraw funds from Gate Money to a bank account
The general process is as follows:
Go to Gate Money and select the USD account and the corresponding feature, such as Withdraw.
Add or select a bank account held in your own name, as required.
Enter the withdrawal amount and confirm the fees and estimated amount to be received.
Verify the recipient information, complete any required verification, and submit the withdrawal request.
Check the processing status in your transaction history.
The exact entry point, supported banks, and withdrawal rules are subject to what is shown in the app.
Please note: When depositing and transferring funds through Gate Money, it is recommended that you use a bank account held in your own name and ensure that the account name and account details match. Before transferring funds, confirm any related costs, such as account management fees and bank transfer fees, and keep your transfer receipt in case you need to contact platform support about a delayed deposit. Also, having a same-name account does not guarantee that a transfer will succeed. Banks may still review the source of funds, transfer purpose, and other compliance requirements.
If you only trade crypto assets, you may not need to use Gate Money. But if you need to move fiat currencies such as USD in and out, the multi-currency account and same-name account are worth learning about.
Its core value is making it easier to manage fiat and crypto assets while making the recipient name for bank transfers clearer.

Bernstein lowered the $CRWV price target from $74 to $51, and some analysts have already set their price targets at $39!
CoreWeave needs to borrow another $85 billion to fully fulfill its current customer contracts.
It has plenty of orders, but to deliver on them, it first needs to lease data centers, buy equipment, and purchase $NVDA GPUs.
Some borrowing rates have now climbed to 15%. Will future earnings be enough to cover the interest? The pressure is mounting!
If CoreWeave really is on the brink of collapse, will Nvidia step in and acquire it?

Has the U.S. Stock Market’s Overall Trend Reversed? Don’t Chase the Early-Week Bounce!
1. The Nasdaq $QQQ
’s daily and weekly signals are both bearish, and there isn’t enough evidence yet to confirm that the uptrend has resumed. If it breaks below the first support near $697 and the bounce is weak, it could continue to test $693. If it weakens further, the next level to watch is around $682.
The most likely path is a dead-cat bounce toward the 708 gap on Monday and Tuesday, followed by a sell-off back to 690 on Wednesday and Thursday, then a small bounce on Friday. Below 695 is a strong support zone.
2. S&P 500 $SPY
The S&P 500’s overall momentum is more resilient than the Nasdaq’s, and it’s holding up better. The MACD is below the zero line, indicating weak short-term momentum, and around 759 is the current price reference area. If it decisively breaks below 759, the next technical support is 748.
If it closes below 760 this month, the outlook will turn clearly bearish. The trend line has already been broken, and if the closing price falls below the key level, the market could correct by about 5% and look for support further down.
A bounce Monday and Tuesday, then a sell-off Wednesday and Thursday!

$ADA ‌is currently holding a crucial range on the 15-minute timeframe, trading around the 0.2018 mark after testing a 24-hour low near 0.2004.
Price action shows tight consolidation following a sharp rejection from higher levels, with buyers attempting to defend the psychological 0.20 support zone.
The 24-hour high sits at 0.2072, establishing clear overhead resistance that bulls need to reclaim to shift short-term momentum.
Volume remains steady at 12.30M ADA as traders watch for a decisive breakout or breakdown from this accumulation range.
Keep a close eye on order book depth around these levels for the next directional move.

There’s a bit of a contradiction in the market right now. Looking at the candlestick chart, BTC is still at a high level, so it feels like it could keep falling. But A-shares, US stocks, and Korean stocks have all stopped falling for now. It doesn’t seem very likely that BTC will plunge on its own, either. Maybe the whales are trying to trap bears again. They kept baiting bulls a few days ago, and now it feels like they’re about to start baiting bears again.

At $0.031, would you still dare touch IRYS?
It surged from $0.02 to $0.32 in just a few hours, then crashed from $0.32 back to $0.03. It’s down over 70% in 24 hours, with $21 million to $59 million in short positions wiped out—and everyone is asking: Is this the beginning of an AI data chain, or a meat grinder carefully designed by whales?
First, the surface story: up 1,000%—and then what?
Around October 23, IRYS shot straight up from around $0.02, with spot prices reaching as high as $0.32. Perpetual futures on some platforms even surged past $0.5, with 24-hour gains briefly exceeding 1,000%-1,200%. And then? A waterfall-like retracement, a drop of over 70% in 24 hours, and now it’s trading around $0.031.
The candlestick chart tells you: a classic “vertical surge → sharp peak → waterfall-like retracement.” Trading volume exploded during the rally and has now shrunk significantly; RSI has fallen from overbought territory to neutral-to-weak; funding rates were once negative, while OI surged and then fell back. All the indicators are shouting one thing: the climax is over; don’t catch a falling knife.
But wait.
Are you sure this isn’t a “shakeout before a second takeoff”?
Are you sure $0.03 is the bottom?
First: the 1,000% surge wasn’t because the project was great—it was because the shorts were dead
IRYS’s surge didn’t come with a major mainnet upgrade, a big partnership, or new airdrop developments.
There was only one core driver: low float + a high-leverage short squeeze.
Total supply is 10 billion, with about 20% circulating at TGE and around 2.5-2.6 billion circulating now. The team and investors are locked up for a year.
With a small float and active futures trading, a crowd of shorts means that when whales nudge the price up, short positions get liquidated in a cascade, fueling further gains.
In plain English:
This isn’t “price discovery”; it’s a “liquidity accident.”
The fireworks you see at the shorts’ funeral are other people’s margin burning.
Low float + high leverage = Russian roulette in a casino. You think you’re trading, but you’re actually handing someone else a bullet.
Second: there’s a fundamental narrative, but it hasn’t turned into data yet
IRYS is positioned as a Layer 1 “programmable data chain.” IrysVM is EVM-compatible, allowing smart contracts to directly read, transform, and execute stored data. It targets the gap between storage and execution, making it suitable for AI and data-intensive applications. The founder comes from Bundlr, the project raised about $10 million in a Series A, and the team has a development track record.
Sounds good?
But look at reality: actual adoption, TVL, and real storage/execution volumes still need to be validated.
Current market cap is around $60 million-$90 million, with a higher FDV. The narrative has room for imagination, but the low float means volatility will remain extreme.
An AI data chain is a good story, but you can’t eat a story.
At this price, what’s being traded isn’t fundamentals—it’s the token structure.
Every rebound in a meme coin isn’t meant to make you money; it’s meant to bury you more effectively.
Third: the technicals say this isn’t the time to buy the dip—it’s time to wait for direction
On the larger time frame: a parabolic run-up from $0.012, a sharp peak above $0.3, and now $0.031. Most of the gains have been retraced, but the price is still above the pre-rally low.
Key levels:
Strong support: $0.028-$0.030 (recent low/order book wall), $0.025, $0.020-$0.022 (previous range)
Resistance: $0.035-$0.038 (short-term MA/rebound high), $0.04-$0.045, $0.05+
Indicators: trading volume is shrinking, RSI is neutral-to-weak, OI is falling, and the short-term structure is consolidating bearishly. With a low float, capital could move the price again at any time, but a clear bottom structure has yet to form; there will be plenty of false breakouts and stop hunts.
30-day volatility once exceeded 100%, and ATR has widened.
This isn’t a stable asset; it’s a speculative play.
The bull-bear showdown—take a look for yourself
On one side:
The narrative fits the AI + data sector, and the technology is differentiated
Market cap has fallen back to $60 million-$90 million, leaving room for the narrative to capture the imagination
The low float means another rally could be triggered if capital rotates in
On the other side:
The surge was driven purely by a short squeeze, with no substantive catalyst
Down over 70% in 24 hours, and now searching for a bottom after distribution at the highs
The macro backdrop is risk-off, and volatility is rising during the Fed window
Unlocks/selling pressure, exchange policies, and liquidity withdrawals are all risks
Trading strategy
Short term/swing trading:
Bearish approach (currently the higher-priority setup): Scale into shorts on a rebound to $0.035-$0.038 or around $0.04, set a stop-loss above $0.042-$0.045, and target $0.028-$0.030 before reassessing. Add to the position if $0.028 breaks.
Bullish approach: Only try a small long if strong support at $0.028-$0.030 holds and a rebound comes with rising volume; stop-loss below $0.026, target $0.035-$0.04. Don’t chase.
Key strategy: Stay on the sidelines around $0.03 and wait for a clear direction—either a breakout above $0.04 or a breakdown below $0.028.
Medium term:
The fundamentals are decent, but wait for signs of real traction (storage/execution volume, ecosystem projects, unlock schedule). The valuation has come down, so you could build a small position through dollar-cost averaging, but you must accept the possibility of another 50% drop. Don’t mistake a surge for the “start of the narrative.”
IRYS is like a slot machine in a casino that just paid out a jackpot—
everyone’s gathered around, thinking, “I could win on the next spin.”
But what you don’t see is that the house has already adjusted the odds.

California’s Department of Financial Protection and Innovation (DFPI) just jumped in to take a hard stand against the SEC, blasting its rules easing fundraising for crypto projects (up to $75M) and providing a safe harbor, saying they weaken state-level oversight and enable fraud.
Honestly, this federal-state power struggle in America is getting more and more interesting.
On the surface, California is protesting in the name of protecting retail investors, but in reality, it resents the SEC crossing into its territory and taking away the state government’s tax revenue and influence. The SEC just tried to open a door for capital to flow into the U.S., and California immediately pulled out local laws to slam it shut.
The funny thing is, industry giants like Ripple and Coinbase are still negotiating with the SEC over the fine print, while California has already set their backyard on fire.
Most people are still waiting for the SEC’s policy benefits to take effect, completely unaware that in the future, when projects issue tokens or raise funds, simply getting on the federal government’s good side won’t be enough—state enforcement agencies can take you down at any time in the name of preventing fraud.
You can dodge federal regulation, but you can’t escape state-level walls.
This isn’t a golden age of compliance; it’s compliance hell mode kicking off.

China’s top beauties are still most common in Shandong and the Northeast. Shandong ranks No. 1—no arguments accepted. The moment they open their mouths, they outdo women from the Northeast. Among flight attendants in China’s civil aviation industry, those from Shandong make up the highest proportion. Beauties from Sichuan, Hunan, and Chongqing are held back by their average height, and they can be a bit hot-tempered. Women in southern Jiangsu are generally petite and have great figures, but their presence is too soft—not striking enough. Xinjiang women have deep-set features and an exotic charm. Unfortunately, because of genetics, their prime is limited to before they have children.

Bitcoin’s weekly structure remains resilient.
$BTC closed the week down 2.39%, yet held above the 50W MA for the 6th consecutive week despite the U.S. market correction.
This level remains crucial. As long as Bitcoin holds the 50W MA, the broader bullish structure stays alive.
The next move depends on whether buyers can maintain this support.
