I came across Sun Yuchen’s latest interview with Jin Ming at TOKEN2049 and noticed he’s fairly cautious about BTC, ETH, and the Nasdaq, but more bullish on AI applications and RWA.
After watching it, Yangyang had one thought: There are too many hot topics these days. AI today, RWA tomorrow—it feels like there’s a new story every day.
But just because everyone is bullish on a sector, does that really mean it’s worth getting into?
Whether AI can ultimately deliver practical applications and whether RWA can meet real needs matter far more, in my opinion, than simply listening to a story.
Here’s a

October 17, 2026 (Saturday) BTC Futures Analysis and Strategy (updated to around 22:53 HKT)
Current Market Overview
BTC is currently trading around $81,370–$81,500, down slightly by about 0.5%–1% over 24 hours. Today's price range is roughly $80,800–$81,800, with the market still near the lower end of this week's range. Weekend liquidity is low, making directionless trading or small wicks more likely.
Price continues to trade within the $80,800–$82,500 range, still some distance from the key $82,000–$83,000 area above. It remains about 35% below its October 2025 all-time high of around $126,00

THE HEADLINE
Bitdeer's weekly update on X says that as of October 16, its Bitcoin production for the week was 294.2 BTC, all of which has been sold, with a net increase of 0 BTC and holdings at 0, excluding customer deposits.

🔥 GATE FUTURES: BILLIONS IN VOLUME, GLOBAL TOP 3 MOMENTUM! 🔥
The competition in crypto derivatives is intense, but Gate is making a statement that deserves every trader’s attention.
Bitcoin and Ethereum futures are generating billions of dollars in trading activity, and Gate is reportedly ranking among the TOP 3 exchanges worldwide for both BTC and ETH futures volume.
This is more than a headline. It highlights the scale of Gate’s derivatives market and the growing importance of liquidity, execution quality, and reliable trading infrastructure in a mark

Previously, I noted that the ZEC short setup remained solid and that the short-term rise was merely an oversold rebound, with a short position to be set up in the 1250-1270 resistance zone.
Price surged to 1253, met resistance, and turned lower, reaching a low of 1130 for a 123-point move. The forecast played out precisely.
Don't be misled by short-term rebounds. Stay disciplined with the trend and risk management, and wait for the market to reach the target.$ZEC

Bitcoin: The $80,000–$82,000 Zone Matters
Bitcoin was trading near $82,106 in market reporting on October 16, while another report showed it had briefly fallen to $79,770 on Thursday before stabilizing near $81,985. These figures show how quickly BTC has been moving around important psychological levels.
My view is cautious while Bitcoin struggles to establish sustained support above $82,000. The PPI surprise can increase concerns about higher interest rates, but Warsh’s measured comments and a weaker dollar can provide temporary relief.

I feel AGT and VVV are very similar. Over the past year, both have risen dozens of times from their lows, maintaining a long-term upward, choppy trend. Most importantly, many people have no idea why they’ve risen so much… until I saw Grayscale shilling VVV, and it suddenly dawned on me. I think AGT is much like VVV, with a powerful market player like Grayscale behind it. They both want to package these worthless altcoins as value coins through their token prices and upward momentum. $AG $VVV

There are no surprises in the market, only foresight;
Yesterday, I flagged a short strategy on Bitcoin's rebound. The price surged to around 82900 and met resistance, then fell all the way to 80780, providing 2100 points of room. The forecast played out in full.
Trading isn't about making frequent moves, but understanding the trend, identifying key levels, and sticking to the plan. Leave the rest to time.$BTC

$INJ SHORT SETUP — SELLERS GAINING CONTROL 📉
Entry: 8.55 – 8.70 (Short) SL: 8.98 TP1: 8.40 TP2: 8.20 TP3: 8.00 TP4: 7.75
$INJ is showing bearish momentum on the 1H chart, with lower highs and increasing selling pressure.
As long as price stays below 8.95, further downside remains possible. A sustained breakout above 8.98 would invalidate this setup.
