One-time declaration mechanism helps resolve historical tax issues
An important part of Latvia’s tax reform is a one-time declaration channel for eligible existing crypto assets. According to information published by parliament, individuals may declare relevant crypto assets held as of December 31, 2026, and pay tax of 10% based on their market value on that date. The declaration period runs from April 1 to May 31, 2027.
This arrangement has practical significance. In the past, some investors may have faced difficulties declaring assets due to incomplete records of early transactions, difficul

NEARJumpsNearly10% #ShareWeekly
The global financial market is sending mixed signals. Persistent producer inflation is challenging expectations for easier monetary policy, Bitcoin is attempting to maintain its recovery near $82,000, and NEAR Protocol is attracting attention with a rally of nearly 10%. At the same time, NVIDIA’s AI-driven growth story and Tesla-inspired meme-coin speculation are adding new dimensions to investor sentiment.
My view is that this market requires more than bullish headlines. Traders must understand how macroeconomic pressure, liquidity, technology trends, and spec

Tax Policy Will Affect Latvia's International Competitiveness
Against the backdrop of rapid growth in digital finance in Europe, crypto asset tax policy has become an important factor shaping the investment environment. Through this reform, Latvia is seeking to strike a balance between tax compliance and investment convenience by introducing an investment account system and a one-time declaration mechanism for historical assets. This affects not only domestic investors but may also influence how crypto asset service providers assess the local market.
A more flexible tax approach can reduce the

October 19 Market Analysis: Daily Chart Bottom, 4-Hour Chart Finds Support—Is the Rebound Starting?
Not easy, but this storage-sector downturn has formed what looks like its first bottoming pattern on the daily chart. On the 4-hour chart, the candle at 12:00 has officially broken above the BOLL middle band. The moving averages also point to a potential end to the decline, so the daily chart may turn bullish over the next few days (though the large bearish weekly candle means the bullish outlook may not last).
A few levels to watch on the shorter timeframes: For Micron, 926 could act as resista

U.S. Threatens "Devastating" Retaliation if EU Restricts American Firms' Satellite Spectrum Access
The United States has threatened "devastating" retaliation if the European Union moves forward with restrictions on American companies' access to satellite spectrum, according to a statement released on October 19, 2026. The dispute centers on the EU's efforts to prioritize domestic satellite operators, such as those involved in the IRIS² constellation, for limited spectrum resources, potentially disadvantaging U.S. firms like SpaceX's Starlink. The U.S. warning marks a significant escalation in

Is the 80k support like a wall—do shorts still have a chance?
Brother Hao, I’ve been bearish since 87,000 on September 22, with a target below 73,000. I’ve gone from being firmly convinced to feeling hesitant. It’s not that I’m no longer bearish, but after nearly a month of choppy trading, anyone’s mindset would shift.
Drops are usually fast and forceful. This time, price has tested 80k to the downside too many times, and each time it has bounced quickly, leaving a long lower wick. While watching the charts last night, I thought that if the selling pressure held and the daily candle closed red

#NEARJumpsNearly10% NEAR Protocol Jumps Nearly 10 Percent, Is a Bigger Rally Taking Shape?
The cryptocurrency market continues to create new opportunities for traders, and NEAR Protocol has captured attention with a price surge of nearly 10 percent. This kind of movement can quickly change market sentiment, attract fresh buyers, and put an altcoin back on the radar of investors searching for the next major opportunity.
But there is an important question behind every sudden rally. Is NEAR beginning a stronger upward trend, or is this simply a short term price movement that could lose momentum?

The Fed goes quiet, earnings take center stage, PMI wraps up: “volatility harvesting week” is here
From October 17 to 29, the Fed is in its pre-FOMC blackout period, when officials are barred from publicly commenting on monetary policy. In his final speech before the blackout, Warsh explicitly rejected the very idea of “forward guidance.”
The market has lost what it relied on most over the past decade: officials’ remarks as its traditional navigation system.

I’ve mentioned several times that BTC 80800 is a key level to watch.
It was pushed back up several times after dropping during last night’s session.
If BTC loses 80000, ETH will accelerate downward to consolidate around the 2100-2200 support.
Watch the 79000-76000 support range for BTC.
Manage your position size; just trade within the planned range to take profits.
This rapid V-shaped rebound may just be a weekend oversold bounce and shakeout.

#GateWCTCS9全球交易赛 I’m bullish on tonight’s market and don’t believe Black Monday is coming. I’m planning to hold a few medium- to long-term long positions and be a diamond hand for once. Looking at historical Q4 market trends over the years, the vast majority rose, except in 2025. I believe this year won’t follow the same script as 2025—that would be too unoriginal, and market makers are unlikely to do that. I believe the broader trend will prevail.

$BTC Retesting the Key S/R right at the start of the week.
For continuation towards the upside, we need to flip this level into support. As long as we're rejecting here, a sweep of the PWL stays in play.
A short from here could do pretty well, but I'm personally not interested in taking it given that we're in the middle of the range and the Risk to Reward just isn't favorable.
The POIs for me this week are the PWH and PWL.
Given that we pretty much ranged for the entire last week, it's quite likely that we hunt either the high or the low of the previous weekly candle this week.
