CFTC Warns Prediction Markets Over Trading Incentives ⚖️
The U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) is raising concerns about how prediction-market platforms structure trading incentives and reward programs.
Platforms such as Kalshi and Polymarket have seen rapid growth, but the regulator says some incentive-related filings may not provide enough compliance detail.
The concern is that aggressive rewards tied to trading activity could encourage users to trade mainly to hit volume targets, potentially increasing risks such as wash trading, pre-arranged trades and market manipulation.

August 13 Wanxin Midday Analysis:
The market is still waiting to see the pace of subsequent overseas policy developments. After gold prices surged, quite a few funds chose to take profits and stay on the sidelines. The U.S. dollar stabilized slightly, while upward momentum at high levels was insufficient, and the market began to pull back.
After gold prices surged to around 4449, they were unable to move higher. Highs on the five-minute timeframe kept getting lower, with prices moving down step by step,
while short-term indicators weakened in tandem and downward momentum gradually emerged.

$BTC # July CPI Comes in Steady, September Rate-Hike Expectations Cool
July CPI and core CPI matched market expectations exactly. Inflation eased slightly, and following earlier weakness in nonfarm payrolls, markets quickly cut the odds of a September rate hike, temporarily improving sentiment toward risk assets. However, the data only ease the Fed’s short-term tightening pressure; they do not mean the rate-hike alert is fully off.
The data show that inflation is declining slowly, while housing services remain its main support. Core CPI still has a significant gap to the 2% policy target. Geop

🇺🇸 US inflation fell to 3.4%, in line with forecasts.

Is the bear market about to leave? Hold that toast.
Matt Hougan’s words are like an old Chinese doctor taking a pulse—“Not falling is a good sign.” Bitcoin has taken several heavy blows in succession: Coldcard’s security failure, Strategy’s sell-off, and the CLARITY Act fizzling out, yet it has remained utterly unmoved. As the ancients said: “What does not kill you will ultimately make you stronger.” Bitcoin seems to embody that sentiment right now.
Yet a bottom is discovered, not shouted into existence. Bull markets never set out amid applause; they often arrive quietly when people are still

$ETH USDT is looking interesting around 1,880.
ETH is holding the 1,870 support after the recent drop. Buyers are trying to build some strength here, but the 1,895.65 level is still in the way.
If ETH breaks 1,895.65 and holds above it, I’d watch 1,921.18 and then 1,938.20.
For now, 1,870 is the main level to watch. If ETH stays above it, buyers still have a chance to push higher. A break below 1,870 would make this setup weaker.

BABY crashed 21.82% overnight, hitting a low of 0.0099, and those who chased the price earlier are now down 30% on average. The Fear & Greed Index has fallen to 17, funding rates have turned negative, and no one across the market dares to catch the falling knife. The last time we saw such an extreme reading was three months ago, after which every scenario was a V-shaped reversal rallying 50%+. Trading volume has surged to 18.3M, indicating that panic selling is being cleared out, but 0.0099 has not broken the previous low—this is the first stabilization signal.

8.13 $SNDK Midday Analysis
Fundamentally, inventory in the memory chip industry continues to decline, market expectations of rising flash memory prices are heating up, and funds are collectively flowing back into the sector, providing fundamental support for the token.
Technically, the three Alligator lines are synchronously diverging upward, with the price firmly above all moving averages and the lows rising in a stair-step pattern, forming a complete bullish upward channel. MACD remains above the zero axis with a golden cross, red bars continue to expand, and bullish momentum is strong.

Memory chip rally: can the AI memory supercycle continue?
The memory-chip sector is entering another powerful phase as AI infrastructure spending continues to reshape demand for HBM, DRAM and advanced storage.
SK hynix jumped more than 9%, SanDisk gained around 5%, Micron rose 4.9%, and Seagate advanced about 7%. The move shows that investors are increasingly looking beyond GPUs and focusing on the memory and storage companies that form a critical part of the AI infrastructure chain.
The fundamental story remains strong.
AI models require enormous amounts of data to be proce

Anyone knowledgeable about this Dota 2 match? I heard the team on the left is a former world champion, while my colleague says the team on the right is fully stacked—“a villa by the lakeside”? It’s supposedly a BO3 match, and the team on the right has already won one game, yet the odds are still 2x. Is the betting line skewed?
