#WCTCS9 WCTCS9 Trading Competition: Three Rules to Note
1. Zero-fee trading pairs do not count toward the competition trading volume—don’t try to inflate volume with zero-fee trades.
​
2. Subaccounts do not count as independent participants, and the same KYC counts as one person—don’t create multiple accounts; it’s useless.
​
3. Registration closes on 10/26 at 16:00 (UTC+8)—remember to register in advance. Positions opened before the competition period (10/26–11/25) begins do not count.

ethereum:0xb1d1eae60eea9525032a6dcb4c1ce336a1de71be is up over 1000% YTD
i’ve been saying that for a while now
this cycle’s alpha is in the small caps
everyone is either focused on the majors like HYPE, ZEC, or NEAR, which are all good trades but somewhat limited in their upside and have already played out a big part of their move
or they’re stuck in the trenches or on leverage chasing that 1000x
meanwhile, there are dozens of incredible low cap gems that already make or are set to make a shit ton of revenue, which you can pick up right now for cheap
some of these will 10x, 20x, or even 30x+

79thVault: New developments in the $14.35 million withdrawal incident on BNB Chain!
🐳 On October 7, the suspected attacker allegedly exploited Operator permissions to execute 7 transactions within 1 hour, withdrawing approximately 2.01 million 79AU from PancakeSwap liquidity pools and exchanging it for approximately 16,249 BNB.
💰 October 9: 15,000 BNB was returned, equivalent to approximately $11 million (at the reported price).
🛡️ The project team has recovered the relevant access permissions and continues to monitor the remaining assets.
One point worth noting: this appears to be an issue

🔥Profit surged 8x, yet the stock was hammered: memory stocks recovered overnight, and the “sell into good news” curse will be settled next Tuesday
(Saturday, October 10 · Weekly review)
The most surreal plot twist this week: Samsung’s Q3 operating profit surged nearly 8x to a record high, yet its stock was hammered—this wasn’t the first time; when profit surged 18x in July, the stock still fell 10%. The more explosive the results, the harder the sell-off. Veteran traders call this “selling into good news”: the good news has already been fully priced in, and the day it materializes is the day

7u Challenge: 100 million!
Day 50
Principal: 7u, target: 100 million
Current: 3750u
Survival costs: 2950u
Available funds: 700u+
I’ve basically made no moves over the past half month—just spending money or losing money. Now I see that I only have 700u in principal left. It’s so painful!
I need to find a way to earn some principal quickly. The overall strategy remains unchanged: write content to earn some precious principal. Only with principal can I trade contracts and chase memes.
1. I’ve been keeping an eye on $ENA and $ONDO recently, but it still doesn’t feel right;

#LedgerLossesNear90Million
🚨 #LedgerLossesNear90Million: A Major Wake-Up Call for Crypto Security
The crypto world is facing another serious security warning as reported losses linked to Ledger hardware wallet users approach $90 million.
🔐 What happened?
Ledger is investigating reports involving devices purchased through a Southeast Asian reseller. Blockchain analysts have tracked suspicious transactions across multiple networks, while Tether has reportedly frozen some USDT linked to the incident.
⚠️ Key Lessons for Investors
• Always purchase hardware wallets from trusted, verified sources

$ERA Short-term bullish, but it has entered a high-risk zone for chasing gains; only buy on pullbacks, not breakouts.
Bottom line: The Fear and Greed Index remains in the greed zone at 64, BTC has not shown systemic weakness, and funds are rotating from stagnant or weakening tokens such as RAY and GMT into strong breakout tokens such as ERA. ERA surged 35.42% over 24 hours, and its current price of 0.0845 has risen above the Bollinger upper band at 0.0796. MA5 (0.07476) has crossed above MA20 (0.068135), forming a bullish alignment, while the MACD histogram at +0.001775 continues to expand, co

GRAYSCALE'S MINI $ETH ETF HAS BOUGHT $103M
Grayscale's Mini ETH fund bought $103.3M of ETH over the past 20 days. Its older ETHE fund saw $71.6M of outflows in the same window, which appears to be a rotation into the Mini fund.
Grayscale clients have net bought $31.7M of ETH.

In mediocre circles, hard work is mistaken for showboating; in relationships that tear you down, excellence is seen as a threat; in environments rife with internal friction, clarity is viewed as the sin of not fitting in.
A bad environment treats pearls as dirt, and over time, people mistakenly believe they are truly worthless.
There is no need to remain trapped in place, judging yourself.
Leave the draining environment and strive for a broader platform, and you will soon discover that the traits that once made you feel inferior and were constantly questioned are precisely the qualities whose

#Mining Bitcoin isn’t just about hashrate. It’s also about how efficiently you use electricity.
J/TH measures how much energy a miner uses to produce computing power. The lower the number, the more energy-efficient the machine.
Electricity costs directly affect daily expenses, while the break-even point tells miners when their revenue covers operating costs.
A machine with high hashrate isn’t always the most profitable. Energy efficiency and power costs make a real difference.

$SPCX /USDT short setup about to pay off while others wait for a pullback that may never come.

$SPCX /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 163.17 – 163.53
SL: 165.05
TP1: 162.08
TP2: 161.23
TP3: 159.95

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is range-bound, so mean reversion favors short entries near resistance. The 1h ATR of 0.707341 confirms enough volatility to reach targets quickly from the 163.35 entry zone. The 15m RSI at 56.22 shows momentum is not overbought, allowing room for a clean move down toward TP1 at 162.08 and TP2 at 161.23. The invalidation level at 163.97 is the hard line

Bitcoin had a sharp stop hunt below support before regaining strength and flipping above the area. Volume is dried up for now, so we need to wait for a small time frame structure shift to move further
