After the price bounced off the second base, it remained stalled at the first base; this is to be expected, however, as the price breakout from the first base transforms the area from a demand zone into a supply zone.

Fed Chair Kevin Walsh said that price stability and controlling inflation remain the Fed’s top priorities behind today’s rate hike.
Here is what he said:
1. A strong labor market, higher-than-expected CPI and PPI data, and the latest escalation of the war drove this decision.
2. The decision passed unanimously, 12-0, because the Fed’s 2% PCE inflation target remains the primary objective.
3. The overall U.S. economy remains strong, domestic spending is healthy, and credit flows are robust.
4. The rise in Treasury yields is partly attributable to competition for capital between the government a

Overnight, Bitcoin formed a typical “bottoming and rebound” pattern after the news was released. The Federal Reserve’s 25-basis-point rate hike was fully in line with market expectations, and the vote passed unanimously at 12:0. The rate decision itself did not deliver any unexpected hawkish shock, as most of the bearish impact had already been priced in before the decision. The price first edged up to around 76,300, then mounted a strong rebound, dipping as low as 75,000 before quickly surging back to around 76,500. It is currently trading near 76,300 again.
Technically, the 75,000 level has

September 17 Morning Market Brief
$BTC approximately $76,200, $ETH approximately $2,470; the market saw a recovery after the Fed's rate hike, but overall sentiment remains cautious
① The Fed raised rates by 25bp to 3.75%-4%, its first rate hike in over three years, while 16/18 officials expect at least one more hike this year, keeping short-term liquidity conditions tight
② ETF funds have clearly retreated: on September 15, BTC spot ETFs saw net outflows of $450 million, while ETH saw outflows of $141 million, totaling nearly $592 million—the largest single-day outflow recently
③ The key shor

From the 4-hour timeframe, ETH remains in a downward channel following its retreat from the 2663 high, with successive lower highs (2663→2612), showing a clear weak trend. The current price is trading around 2421, with a 24-hour high of 2425.19 and a low of 2415.09. The price range is less than 0.5%, representing a typical low-volume sideways movement after a sharp drop. Bulls and bears have temporarily reached a weak balance here, which also means that a directional choice is imminent.
From the 1-hour timeframe, the previous low briefly dipped to around 2355 before finding support, after whic

#GateSquareMidAutumnReunion : A Celebration of Community, Culture, and Crypto Connection
The Mid-Autumn Festival is one of the most cherished traditions in many Asian cultures. It is a time when families and friends gather under the brightest full moon of the year, sharing mooncakes, tea, stories, and gratitude. The festival symbolizes completeness, harmony, and reunion. In the fast-moving world of cryptocurrency, where markets never sleep and prices can change in seconds, the idea of reunion carries a special meaning. It reminds us that behind every chart, every trade, and every blockchain tr

#OpenAISeeks1.2TrillionValuationBeforeIPO
$1.2 trillion for OpenAI sounds like a valuation story. I think the more interesting story is what investors believe OpenAI could become.
OpenAI is reportedly in early discussions with investors about a new funding round that could value the company at more than $1.2 trillion, ahead of a potential future IPO. The important word here is “discussions.” This is not a completed financing round, the valuation is not final, and there is still no confirmed IPO date. Reuters reported that the talks were based on Financial Times reporting, while other reports

#WhereToParkStablecoinsWhileWaiting
When BTC can't decide between a breakout and another sell-off, I don't think the answer is to pick a side with all my money. I’d rather keep my capital working while keeping enough liquidity to react.
Right now, the market is sitting in an uncomfortable zone. BTC is dealing with major macro uncertainty around the Fed, while traders are still trying to understand whether the current weakness is a deeper correction or simply another opportunity to buy the dip.
That changes how I would manage 10,000 USDT.
My priority in this kind of market is not chasing the h

#BTCDrops3.3% Deconstructing Bitcoin’s Recent Correction and the Path Forward
The cryptocurrency market is no stranger to volatility. It is a landscape defined by violent upward surges and equally abrupt retracements. In the last 24 hours, the market has once again reminded investors of its inherent unpredictability. Bitcoin, the flagship digital asset, experienced a significant drawdown, shedding 3.3% of its value in a relatively short period. While a 3.3% drop might sound trivial in traditional equity markets, in the world of crypto, it represents a substantial transfer of wealth and a psych

ETH’s one-hour price has touched the upper Bollinger Band channel while reaching a recent horizontal resistance zone. In terms of indicators, the KDJ J value has surged above 91, entering clear overbought territory, and the need for a short-term pullback continues to intensify. Regarding trading volume, the volume during this rebound has contracted significantly compared with the increased volume during the previous decline, making this a low-volume rebound with insufficient bullish momentum. As the price surges toward the upper Bollinger Band, selling pressure can easily be unleashed. The pro
