Thursday BTC Morning Brief:
This move $BTC has indeed been fierce! It reached a high of 70,450 last night, a 6,000-point gain, triggering over $1 billion in liquidations in a single hour!
A sharp rise, but is the bull market back?
Around 69,500 is exactly where the 200-day moving average lies, making this level extremely important.
Only if it can truly hold above 69,500 will I look further toward 73,000–75,000;
If it fails to hold after a surge, I think a pullback to 67,000–68,000 to seek support would be completely normal.
Now let's look at the broader picture:
The Bank of Japan may adjust i

CYS went long at 0.52 yesterday, and it’s at 0.6 now, more than doubling.
I called this one out on the public feed. I made it very clear at the time: the short had already run from 1.28 to 0.5, and the move had played out, so there was no point shorting again at that level. Once it dropped to 0.5, it could no longer be pushed down. The downward momentum had already faded, and those who wanted to exit had already left.
Going long in the opposite direction paid off in just one day.
The first thing to do now is move the stop-loss up to the entry price and secure breakeven.
There’s no way to lose

The breakout is real, but it is currently undergoing its first stress test.
This is an important moment, so let me share some operational advice:
The following are just my own thoughts for reference!
It is rare for this move to reclaim both MA120 and MA200 at the same time;
bitcoin:native’s current price is around $69k, which means that after the 8:00 a.m. close confirmed at $69,300 this morning, it has now immediately returned to around MA200 ≈ $69,031.
This is a very good observation window:
If: $69,300 breaks through → retests around $69,000 → holds support → then continues upward, that wou

SK Hynix leads a risk-on day as South Korea’s KOSPI jumps ~6.3% intraday, with Samsung also higher; chipmakers rally on broad market strength. $KRW? (no ticker for index; include $SKHYNIX if relevant) - but we can add ticker: $000? SK Hynix ticker is not standard; in KRW it's ...

SK hynix has announced a record 40 trillion won share buyback and cancellation program, making it the largest such move by a South Korean listed company. The company plans to repurchase about 24.07 million shares, roughly 3.3% of shares outstanding, and cancel them.
Why does this matter?
A large buyback can support shareholder value by reducing the number of shares in circulation. It can also signal that management believes the company’s current market value does not fully reflect its long-term potential.
For investors, the move could strengthen confidence at a time when semiconductor and AI-r

Tong Ge’s 8.20 ETH Strategy
$ETH @2180-2220, go long; stop loss at 2150; target 2350-2450.
ETH has been seriously strong in this move. It rallied from 1905 all the way to around 2336, decisively breaking through 2050, the ceiling of the two-month consolidation range. And this was not merely a brief wick higher—the solid bullish candle held firmly above it.
The level that had capped price for two months has changed roles—2050 has turned from resistance into support. The daily chart has broken out of the consolidation range, the 4-hour rebound structure remains intact, and buying volume has

I was just about to go curse it out, but then I checked the account and decided to let it dump however it wants while I keep quiet. 😤

When the sell-off started in the early session, buying support was insufficient and the bull-trap vibes were strong. A rebound like this is just sending people to their deaths, so I immediately flagged a short position.

Shorted $AIOT at 0.04561 and took it down to 0.03842, +78.46%. It feels great when you get the timing right. I’ve closed 80% to lock in profits, set the remaining 20% at the entry price for protection, and will let profits run if it keeps du

Has the big move really arrived?
On August 19, Bitcoin finally broke through the key level around $70k; Ethereum also reclaimed the level around $2,300, gaining more than 20% in 24 hours. More importantly, this was not an ordinary slow climb, but a rare short squeeze that unfolded within an extremely short period.
Data showed that on August 19, more than $1 billion worth of Bitcoin short positions were liquidated in the crypto market, while total short liquidati

Last night, a recovery in macro expectations, news catalysts, capital flows in the market, short squeezing, and the buildup in the technical setup itself combined to trigger an explosive move in crypto prices, sending them sharply higher in a short period! On the weekly chart from a long-term perspective, the price rebounded directly from near the lower band, broke through the middle band, and reached resistance at the upper band. The previous high of 4958 was the historical major top. The current move is an intermediate rebound after a major decline and has not yet entered a fully fledged bul

#CryptoCommunityReturnsHome
For almost two years my feed was full of people saying they were done. Wallets emptied, groups muted, friends who used to send charts at 2am went quiet. Everyone was somewhere else, trying other things.
Then last week I opened three different group chats and saw the same names again. Not with hype, just with "are you still holding that old self custody wallet?" or "did you see tokenized A shares are live?"
That is what returning home feels like in crypto. It is not a price.
It is a cycle every community goes through. First everyone gathers around a new idea. Then

The three I’m still focusing on most are $BTC $ETH $HYPE . 👀HYPE often does indeed rally with higher elasticity after BTC and ETH first ignite risk appetite, but that is not a fixed script. This round, $HYPE has already risen nearly 20% in a single day, so it has actually caught up; I won’t use “half a beat behind” as a reason to chase higher. Having an ETF, hype, and genuine trading demand are all positives, of course. But ETFs can also see outflows, and having an access channel doesn’t mean funds are buying every day. To me, a good token isn’t defined by having lots of news, but by buyers
