At $64,150, would you add to your BTC position?
Look at the surface first: it has been ranging for a month, and everyone is numb.
Over the past 30 days, BTC has moved from $60k to $66k, unable to move higher or lower. Retail traders are shouting, “The longer it ranges, the harder it falls,” while bulls are saying, “It’s building up for a breakout.” Yesterday’s price was $64,150, right in the upper-middle part of the range.
The entire market is waiting for a direction. The daily chart is above the 20-day and 50-day moving averages ($63,800-$63,900), but the descending trendline at $64,500-$65k

$ETH Foundation Launches Glamsterdam Testnet with Major Technical Changes
The Ethereum Foundation has released the Platåberget testnet for the upcoming Glamsterdam upgrade, warning developers that the upgrade could break some wallets, indexers, and gas estimators due to changes in how gas is calculated . Under a proposal called EIP-8037, a new "state-gas" charge will apply to actions that create new data on the blockchain—a normal ETH transfer to an existing wallet still costs 21,000 gas, but sending ETH to a brand-new wallet will cost extra . Developers are being urged to test their tools on

To be honest, I exited the long positions I opened on Sandisk too early, so I intermittently opened more longs for swing trades along the way. I failed to hold on at the beginning because I was afraid to keep too large a position, but the one thing I’m happy about is that when I watched Sandisk’s price at 1827 at the U.S. stock market open last night, I knew it couldn’t go any higher. I still hesitated for a moment, but when it hovered around 1810, I decisively shorted it. This time, as it rose all the way up, I didn’t short at 1400, 1500, or 1600–1700, but ultimately waited until 1810 to shor

Anthropic’s Meteoric Rise Past $65 Billion — The AI Growth Story Everyone Is Watching
Anthropic has delivered one of the most remarkable growth stories in the artificial intelligence industry. The company behind Claude has reportedly pushed its annualized revenue run rate beyond $65 billion, marking an extraordinary acceleration in commercial AI demand. A company that was relatively small compared with the biggest names in AI only a short time ago is now competing at the highest level of the industry. In my opinion, this is not simply another impressive tec

8.18 Bitcoin, Tuesday evening
The overall intraday outlook remains unchanged. After an early-morning surge to test 64,592, price came under pressure and pulled back. Overhead resistance remains evident, while bullish follow-through was weak.
After the surge, the market continued to fluctuate and consolidate, with signs of resistance at the highs. Avoid blindly chasing rallies with oversized positions in the short term.
A short-term long trade may be attempted; exit directly when profitable. On the larger timeframe, continue waiting for opportunities to short at rebound highs, focusing on wheth

GATE CARD IS EVOLVING FROM A PAYMENT TOOL INTO A REWARDS ENGINE

Instead of treating cashback as a simple discount, Gate is turning those rewards into a more flexible asset-based system.
UPGRADE #1 — MORE WAYS TO USE YOUR POINTS
The new rewards system expands redemption beyond the previous limited choices. Gate says users can now redeem accumulated points for 1

They thought the ribbita-by-virtuals:native whale ran out of money.
Nope.
It never stopped buying. It just moved the accumulation somewhere we couldn't see.

Never sold. Just kept buying.

#Japan5YearYieldHitsRecordHigh
JAPAN'S BOND MARKET JUST SENT A SHOCKWAVE THROUGH GLOBAL FINANCE — AND MOST PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT IT MEANS
Something historic is unfolding in Tokyo right now, and it is not getting the attention it deserves from retail investors.
Japan's 5-year government bond yield has just surged to a record high of 2.16 percent, peaking at 2.18 percent in August 2026 — the highest level in history since this instrument's data began tracking. But this is not an isolated event. The entire Japanese yield curve is on fire.
The 2-year JGB yield has climbed to 1.69 percent, its
