I only wanted to grab some breakfast, but the order book first took care of the work for the shorts. At the start of the morning session, when the market was just getting dumped, $CYS started loosening from the high point downward, and the lively rebound finally showed signs of fatigue.

A few days ago, I was watching CYS at midnight. What I saw was clear resistance overhead—several times it surged higher but fell short, and the volume still couldn’t catch up. When I saw this kind of low-volume rally, what I advised wasn’t chasing longs, but waiting until the follow-through/consolidation fai

#StrategyInitiatesSTRCBuyback Strategy has announced the initiation of its STRC buyback program, marking another important step in strengthening shareholder confidence and improving long-term value. Share buybacks are often viewed as a sign that a company believes its shares are undervalued and is willing to invest in its own future rather than simply holding excess capital.
The decision to launch an STRC buyback demonstrates a disciplined approach to capital management. By reducing the number of outstanding shares, the company can potentially increase earnings per share while enhancing value

#MinnesotaPredictionMarketBanBlocked
The ban on prediction markets in Minnesota will not happen now. A federal judge stopped it in time. This ban was supposed to start on August 1.. Judge Katherine Menendez said no it cannot be enforced until a final decision is made. This is a win for people who work with prediction markets.
What was this state law trying to do?
* It made operating prediction markets a felony, which's a serious crime.
* People who did this could have gone to prison for up to five years.
* They could have also been fined $10,000.
Governor Tim Walz signed this law on May 18. I

【$ON Signal】The long side breaks above the Bollinger Band upper band; 1H momentum accelerates
$ON RSI 1H 76.78, buy-side depth share 28.81%, Bid/Ask depth ratio 1.81, funding rate 0.0663% positive. The 4H Bollinger Band upper band at 0.2135 has been probed by price; the MACD histogram at 0.0092 continues to expand. Consecutive bullish 1H candles push higher, but the last candle closes with a upper shadow, meaning there is short-term profit-taking pressure. Cool assessment: current risk-reward ratio is 1.5; the stop loss is only a 1% position risk and remains controllable. Before the trend show

$ETH Facing a Key Decision Zone
Ethereum has reached the upper boundary of its descending channel, where price action often becomes volatile.
If bulls fail to secure a breakout, a rejection could open the door for a move back toward lower support levels.
📍 Watch the reaction around resistance. 📉 Rejection = Potential short opportunity. 📈 Breakout = Bearish setup invalidated.
Trade the confirmation, not the prediction.
#MinnesotaPredictionMarketBanBlocked

The chart action in that earlier high-level move looked pretty lively—the price kept probing higher, and many people thought it would keep pumping. But what I noticed was that the higher it surged, the weaker the post-trade follow-through became. The sell pressure became more obvious each time, so around 0.03382 I started seriously considering a short opportunity.

At the beginning it didn’t go smoothly. There were several quick rebounds in price; the order book kept ping-ponging with needle-like moves, which was really wearing. I didn’t panic and jump off just because of the short-term rally

Is Bitcoin about to drop again?
Yesterday, Bitcoin failed to break above 65,500 and continued falling, breaking below 64K again, with bears once more taking the dominant advantage
With crude oil falling and the upcoming rate-setting meeting, why did Bitcoin drop first?
My view hasn’t changed—this is just the surface situation. It’s a short-term reduction in risk exposure, a washout of the earlier long positions
With recent data acting as a negative catalyst, continue to buy the dip and look for a rebound
Today the price is near 63K—this is the key support area of the prior 4-hour adjustment wa

KOSPI Plunges 9%: Sharp Sell-Off Sends Shockwaves Through Asian Markets
South Korea's KOSPI experienced a dramatic 9% decline, highlighting the growing uncertainty facing global financial markets. The sharp sell-off reflects heightened investor concerns over economic growth, corporate earnings, geopolitical risks, and shifting monetary policy expectations.
A decline of this magnitude often triggers risk-off sentiment across regional and global markets, prompting investors to reassess their exposure to equities and other risk assets. Such volatility can also influence currency

gn $BNKR fam, maybe bankrbot will be back on the TL soon.

XRP is currently around 1.055 u. It fell quite sharply today, down nearly 4.6%, the largest drop among these pieces.
Over the past week, it’s also been down, down 5.6%. On a monthly basis it’s basically flat—up only less than 1%. The small gains it had built up earlier have basically been wiped out by these past couple of days. The 24-hour high was 1.11 and the low was 1.055; today’s drop directly broke through that high-low range, with pretty big volatility.
It’s down more than 70% from its all-time high of 3.65. This round of decline is related to the overall weakness in the broader market o
