With the weekend coming up, we can expect a certain calm in the cryptocurrency market—of course, if there aren’t any major shocks in the political or economic world. Ukraine–Russia, the USA–Iran, or maybe a tweet from President Trump—anything is possible…

BREAKING🚨: $13T asset manager Charles Schwab is entering prediction markets through a partnership with Cboe, launching binary options on the S&P 500 with fixed cash payouts.
Despite Schwab's growing crypto focus, the offering will not use blockchain or tokenized settlement.

The last look before bed was still grinding, woke up and got the result directly. 📉😎 A few days ago, when I looked at $ADA before bed, the market was still hovering at high levels, not weak on the surface, but the more I looked, the more I felt something was off, the rally lacked volume, and the support wasn't strong enough.
A few days ago, in the early morning, I was watching ADA's rhythm, and I found that every time it surged upward, it seemed to be missing the last breath, and after the surge, it was pushed back 👀 This kind of market is most likely to tempt people to chase longs, but

‼️Big Tech firms have almost completely stopped buying back their own stock:
Of the 4 largest AI spenders, only Microsoft repurchased shares in Q1 2026, totaling just $3.4 billion, the lowest quarterly figure for the group in almost 10 YEARS.
This also marks the first time in nearly 10 years that Alphabet did not buy back any shares, a sharp reversal from over $15 billion in repurchases during the same quarter last year.
Over the last 5 years, Alphabet alone has spent ~$280 billion on buybacks, equivalent to more than 6% of its current market capitalization.
This comes as Alphabet already rais

Lost 1.24 million USD before I learned to read data—this wave of $LAB nearly wiped me out.
At a price of 12.8 USD, it fell 24.56% in the past 24 hours, and the trading volume is still 400 million USD. Panic selling hasn’t cleared out completely, but even the stubborn old-timers who held on too long have all been cut below 13 USD.
My logic:
- After a deep -24% pullback, if the daily chart can hold steady above 12.7 USD (the previous low support), the rebound target is 15 USD.
Trading plan:
Long lightly at 12.7 USD–12.9 USD, stop loss at 12.3 USD (if it breaks below, it means there’s still a

I'm done, the trend of $STRC is like unplugging the internet cable directly, it's painful to watch.
Earlier when I was watching the market, the liquidation map was all red, and the $STRC long leverage was directly hit to a 19x liquidation, on a trading volume of just over a million USD, yet it managed to trigger several waves of liquidations.
For this kind of low-liquidity coin, trying to push the price is like playing a game, with no upper or lower shadows, only a straight line.
I was still thinking about whether to open a long position, thinking that since it had fallen so much, it should bo

Iran Closes the Strait of Hormuz Again – But Also Says It's Open
Just days after the US-Iran peace deal was signed, the Strait of Hormuz is back in chaos.
On June 19, Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) announced the strait was closed again. Their reasoning? Israel hasn't withdrawn from southern Lebanon. The US naval blockade hasn't been "completely lifted" – and under the MoU, that process takes 30 days. American forces are still in the region. The IRGC warned all ships to stay away. Any vessel that defies this directive will be targeted.
But hours later, Iran's Foreign Ministry s

Honestly, when that drop hit the chart just now, the feeling was right! 🔥📉 When I opened the chart this morning, the high-level stubbornness from a few days ago before bed finally resulted in a conclusion. $ARB It wasn't that the market was strong before, it was just a false pull, the volume couldn't keep up, and the key resistance above never loosened.
Before the market fully started moving, I saw ARB was repeatedly pushed back during each rebound, no one was buying in, and the buying volume wasn't decisive enough. 👀 So at that time, I didn't get caught by the fake surge, and I executed a

Someone in the group posted two screenshots, asking who can explain what “antifragility” for traders means. My first reaction was definitely that this person was just bragging.
Then I scrolled down and saw he had already posted the answer himself—three orders in hand, all three lines collapsed, and the principal was directly reduced by a large chunk. The profits he’d built up over the past few months were all dumped back out in a single day, and he even took a selfie in the car while eating zongzi.
That kind of smile-with-bitterness look—I really understand it too well.
Earlier, I saw $DOGE bo

#STRC跌破面值11%創上市新低
Saylor's pref hits a fresh low
Michael Saylor's cash cow cracked. Strategy's STRC pref closed near $89, ∼11% under its $100 par, a new low since its 2025 debut.
What broke: STRC – Variable Rate Series A Perpetual Stretch – is built to hug $100 via monthly dividend resets. BTC slide + cash reserve talk pushed it down. Price print: ∼$88.59, day low ∼$82.53, with heavy turnover.
Why traders care: STRC funds MSTR's BTC buys. Under par = ATM tap shuts, BTC bid slows. Rival Strive SATA offers a higher cash yield with daily pay, pulling flow away.
Gate take:
• MSTR / BTC beta st

#TokenizationWave
THE REAL-WORLD ASSET BOOM: WHY TOKENIZATION HAS BECOME THE NEXT BIG STORY
Not every transformation in finance begins with excitement.
Some begin with efficiency.
Behind the scenes, one of the fastest-growing conversations among institutional investors, asset managers, and blockchain researchers revolves around the tokenization of real-world assets. While much of the public remains focused on price movements, large pools of capital are increasingly interested in how blockchain infrastructure can improve traditional financial systems.
The reason is practical.

Honestly, this market really knows how to mess with people. 🚨📉 A few days ago in the afternoon, $NEAR was still repeatedly testing it, many people wanted to chase after it when it didn't fall, but I thought it was suspicious. The rally had no volume, the rebound was weak, and it was soft at the first touch.
While everyone was still watching, I focused on NEAR's support, and the result was clear: when it pulled back, no one bought, the buying pressure wasn't strong enough, so I executed a short position around 2.7663 👀📌
Now from 2.7663 down to 2.1224, with a return of +1651.60%, the timing

$BTC faces defensive pressure as put options cluster around $55,000–$52,000
📉 Bitcoin options market is seeing stronger demand for put options, with several contracts positioned at lower strike levels such as $55,000 and $52,000. This suggests professional traders are increasing downside protection as short-term sentiment turns more cautious.
🧭 At the time of the report, Bitcoin was trading around $62,400 after pulling back from nearly $67,000 earlier in the week. The $60,000–$64,000 zone is now an important area to watch in assessing whether this is only a short-term correction or the start

A few days ago, I was acting all confident, and today I just revealed the answer directly! 📉😎 When I checked the market this morning and saw $ERA this dip, my first reaction was: that massive surge a few days ago was definitely not strength.
The last glance before bed caught my attention on the issue; every time ERA tries to go higher, it falls just short, with clear resistance above, and the support can't keep up. At that moment, I judged this was more like a trap to lure in buyers, not suitable for chasing, and instead I looked for a short opportunity to cash out 👀.
So I shorted around 0
