🛑Whales collectively pretending to be dead, Iran leaks oil + US military action, possible "突突" market move at 1 AM tomorrow
---
By 10 PM, the data was out, and none of the on-chain whales (BTC, ETH, SOL, XRP) moved, just as expected.
But outside, it's not peaceful:
· Iran says "a ceasefire is only nominal," the military is fully prepared, ready to fight at any moment. The US military actually took action, attacking a tanker trying to break through the blockade. Israel is still bombing Lebanon.
· Satellites captured a large oil spill near Iran's largest oil terminal, covering dozens of square kilometers, looking very suspicious.
Tonight's US data is also strange: public confidence is very low (48.2), but wholesale sales are quite strong (2.8%). Inflation expectations have slightly decreased. Overall, the economy is "saying yes or no, but not really," no sign of rate cuts yet.
Everyone is now waiting for 1 AM tomorrow — the US will announce how many oil wells were drilled this week. This number will directly impact oil prices and inflation expectations, possibly causing a sudden crypto market move in the middle of the night.
Summary:
Geopolitical conflict + oil issues + chaotic data → short-term market volatility possible at any time. Big players haven't moved; retail investors, stay calm and watch for 1 AM.
