Perp DEX open interest has surged above $20B, marking a new 2026 high and a strong recovery from the $11B lows seen earlier this year.
While still below the 2025 peak, rising activity on $HYPE , $ASTER and $AVNT shows traders are returning to leveraged markets, signaling renewed appetite for risk across crypto.

✨️✨️ Strategy Stops Selling $BTC and Builds a $6.7B Liquidity Buffer
Strategy made no $BTC purchases or sales from Aug. 17–23, keeping its treasury unchanged at 840,447 $BTC, acquired for $63.36B at an average price of $75,385. The pause is notable because it follows four weeks in which the company sold a combined 6,916 BTC.
Instead of immediately recycling new capital into Bitcoin, Strategy sold 18.26M $MSTR shares for ~$2.01B. It used $300M to lift its restricted USD Reserve to $5.1B, spent $136.4M repurchasing $STRC, and created a separate $1.59B “USD Cash” pool.
That distinction is importa

Nice to see half a trillion dollars show up in the crypto market in a matter of weeks. The pattern clearly broken and if the red line breaks out I don't think there's any way you can still be skeptical of the move.

From the overall metrics, both groups’ total revenue was 1,000,000, and both had a conversion rate of 8%, so there was no apparent difference. However, concluding that the experiment was successful based on this would mask the mechanism contamination in the experimental design.

330 million ≠ 3 points! Fulham to recreate last season’s stoppage-time winner at home!
Friends, I know everyone is backing Chelsea. 330 million in signings, Alonso’s debut, and overwhelming strength on paper. But football is unpredictable—330 million does not guarantee three points.
Fulham have three major advantages. First, their home-ground strength—they won 11 home matches last season, and Craven Cottage is their fortress. Second, tactical superiority—against strong teams, Fulham sit deep and counterattack. Chelsea’s aggressive attacking leaves plenty of space behind. Third, the psychologic

#Web3SecurityGuide
In Web3, opportunity is huge, but security should always come first. Unlike traditional financial systems, crypto users often have direct responsibility for their assets. One small mistake can sometimes lead to permanent and irreversible loss.
The first rule of Web3 security is simple: Never share your seed phrase or private key. No legitimate support agent, project team, moderator, or platform should ask you for it. Anyone requesting your seed phrase is a major red flag.
Phishing is another serious threat. Fake websites, fake airdrops, fake giveaways, impersonation account

Short-sighted and unable to hold on—the profits from this move are as thin as paper, but I love it. After I saw the bearish news, the market was in a panic, yet $XRP kept grinding at the lows without breaking down. I thought, isn’t this an opportunity? The longer the bottom moves sideways, the more it suggests that someone is quietly accumulating. I went straight long, and my friends mocked me for catching a falling knife. Looking back now, the falling knife has turned into barbecue.

Silver$XAG /USDT, is 68.5 the top or a continuation point?

XAG_USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 68.42 – 68.66
SL: 69.68
TP1: 67.69
TP2: 67.12
TP3: 66.27

Why focus on this setup?
The 4-hour direction is clear: SHORT, with 55.4 confidence. The 1D trend is range-bound, but the 1-hour EMA has turned down, while the 15-minute RSI at 45.16 is weak and the rebound lacks strength. Entering now at 68.54, with TP1 at 67.69, TP2 at 67.12, and SL at 69.68, gives a risk-reward ratio above 1:2. Why now? Because the 4-hour timeframe has just confirmed the bearish structure; waiting to chase after a brea

#AIBoomDrivesTungstenShortage
The AI revolution is creating demand far beyond GPUs, servers and data centers. One of the less visible pressure points is tungsten, a critical material used in advanced semiconductor manufacturing and other high-performance applications.
As AI infrastructure expands rapidly, semiconductor production is also scaling up. Tungsten-based materials such as tungsten hexafluoride (WF6) are important in processes used to manufacture advanced logic chips, DRAM, HBM and 3D NAND. Recent reports indicate that tighter tungsten supply and export controls are increasing pressu

Next Week’s Big Events
——The market’s favorite thing is “certainty,” but it won’t get the answers it wants before Friday at the earliest.
Monday (oil first): The US plans to roll out its “toughest-ever” sanctions on Iran, with Treasury Secretary Bessent saying the details will be announced on Monday.
Wednesday (inflation next): The US will release its July core PCE price index, the inflation indicator favored by the Federal Reserve. The market expects the year-on-year increase to remain at 3.3% and the month-on-month increase to rise to 0.2%. The market currently puts the probability of a Sept
