Thursday, no rate cut, dust settles, the air force continues to play music and dance
In the early morning, the Federal Reserve concluded its two-day monetary policy meeting, announcing "no change" and no rate cut. After the decision was announced, gold and silver soared together, while Bitcoin came under pressure and failed to hold the 90,000 level. Currently, the overall trend has returned to weakness, and today’s strategy is to continue shorting on slight rebounds.
The daily chart shows a large bearish engulfing candle swallowing three consecutive bullish days, indicating strong resistance a

21Shares forecasts XRP target price of $2.45 in 2026, warns of correction risk
American asset management firm 21Shares in its latest report predicts a baseline target price of $2.45 for Ripple (XRP) in 2026; in an optimistic scenario, if institutional demand and RWA applications expand, the price could reach as high as $2.69. The report notes that XRP, which briefly surged to $3.65 in 2025, has now fallen back below $2. Analysis suggests that the 55 consecutive days of net capital inflows into XRP ETFs and the resolution of SEC cases have eliminated major uncertainties. 21Shares also warns tha

#GateLiveMiningProgramPublicBeta 🛠 The Engine Behind the Hype
While the memes provide the flavor, the infrastructure is the kitchen. Two things are making this "rebound" feel different from previous cycles:
Priority Fees & MEV Protection: New wallet updates and Jito-enabled bundles mean fewer failed transactions. The "user experience" is finally catching up to the "user demand."
The "Casino" Efficiency: Tools like DEX Screener and Birdeye have integrated so deeply with Solana that traders have Bloomberg-level data for coins that were created three minutes ago.
⚠️ The Reality Check (The "Candi

#BitcoinFallsBehindGold
In recent weeks, global financial markets have highlighted a clear shift in investor preference as Bitcoin has fallen behind Gold in performance. Once widely promoted as “Digital Gold,” Bitcoin is now facing tough comparisons with the traditional safe-haven asset. While both serve as alternatives to fiat currency, current market conditions show Gold reclaiming its long-standing dominance during periods of uncertainty.
Gold prices have surged due to rising geopolitical tensions, persistent inflation concerns, and slowing global economic growth. Historically, Gold has bee

It turns out that the Sol chain has two卧龙凤雏, now I understand 😂

ZEC hourly chart shows that after approaching around 405, the price begins to pull back. Currently, the basic setup is in place. On the technical indicators, the MACD shows a golden cross emerging, with the red histograms shrinking, and the KDJ also forms a golden cross and is trending upward. The momentum is building up.
Personal suggestion, for reference only (strictly set defensive measures)
ZEC can accumulate around 362-355, with a target of 390-430.

#MiddleEastTensionsEscalate The first wave felt a bit like a "gamified faucet"—if the game wasn't fun, the only reason to stay was the paycheck, which inevitably led to the tokenomic death spirals we saw in 2021-2022. Seeing developers prioritize fun-first gameplay is the "adulting" phase GameFi had to go through.
​Here’s a quick breakdown of the core shifts you mentioned, organized for clarity:

#ContentMiningRevampPublicBeta 📊 The Technical Battlefield
The market is currently deciding if the recent drop below $87,000 was a "deviation" or a structural shift.
Key Support ($84,000 - $86,000): This is the line in the sand. Bears are actively targeting a break below $84,000. If this floor gives way, technical analysts are eyeing a deeper slide toward the $72,000 - $68,000 zone.
Key Resistance ($88,000 - $91,000): For the "break + hold" continuation you mentioned, the bulls first need to reclaim $88,000 on a daily close. Heavy liquidity and sell orders are stacked near $91,400, which acte
