Within the same Bitcoin ecosystem, CORE and MERL are fundamentally on different tracks
⚠️Risk warning: This is a discussion of sector logic and does not constitute investment advice. Both belong to the BTCFi sector, but their underlying positioning and architectures are completely different.

I. Underlying Positioning (The Core Distinction)

CORE (Core DAO): Independent L1 blockchain
It uses Satoshi Plus hybrid consensus and is an independent Layer 1 blockchain.
It uses Bitcoin-delegated computing power as its security foundation and is natively EVM-compatible; its goal is to build a “Bi

QuantTrader:
Written quite thoroughly. However, I’d add one point: CORE’s relay nodes are indeed the biggest point of contention, and I’ve previously seen some audit discussions on this as well. MERL’s custodial risk is also an open secret; inscription players simply care more about liquidity than security. As for token capture, CORE uses revenue-funded buybacks plus dual staking, while MERL uses profit-funded buybacks plus node staking. The former is more aligned with a traditional cash-flow model, while the latter focuses more on ecosystem incentives. In the short term, narratives and capital may favor Merlin more, but in the long term, if an independent L1 can truly establish institutional custody and RWA, its valuation logic will be entirely different. Overall, I agree with the conclusion: they are not in the same sector, so making a forced comparison is of limited value.

It all started in Mrs. Henderson's kindergarten class, 2004. Five kids at the same table: Me, @MidCurveMortal, @imperooterxbt, @remusofmars, and @MarcellxMarcell. We shared crayons, we shared juice boxes: we were inseparable
@MidCurveMortal was the kid who ate glue but somehow always got the right answer on the test. Nobody understood how his brain worked, he'd say something completely wrong, get laughed at, and then the teacher would realize he was right 3 days later
@imperooterxbt was the fastest kid in the class. Not because he was athletic, because he wore heelys every single day including

Attention all $Pons believers. 👋
In order to attain global dominance on Robinhood chain, we simply need to keep pushing like delusion bulls, backed by strong fundamentals.
We need to send a fucking dog to the stratosphere.
@theunipcs has already hinted about $Brodie from the @PonsEcosystem so my vote goes for that one.
We need to send Pons to 500mc asap and then we spend the rest of the bullrun rallying behind Bonkguy on a dog meme like @BrodieHasFun , and just spend the rest of the bullrun to send it to billions - like he did with Bonk on Sol.
And we all make it and live happily every after.

MultiWalletFisher:
The author breaks down the custody models quite clearly. I used to think these BTCFi projects were all pretty much the same, but after reading this, I realized the differences in risk levels are huge. MPC custody still feels a bit shaky.
Gold trend outlook: range-bound today! Consider shorting at 4346-4357, with a defense level at 4366 and stop-loss/take-profit set at 4295-4303$XAUUSD

they are hyper-inflating the global reserve currency to pump stocks that only 5% of the population own a significant amount of and making life unaffordable for everyone else.
Inflation is destroying the economy and there is a 62% chance that the FED does NOT raise rates before the end of the year.
Insanely irresponsible.

$BMT Signal】1H short squeeze taking shape, negative funding rate + resilient price
$BMT After breaking out on the 1H chart, the price is consolidating at high levels, currently at 0.03472. The 4H Bollinger upper band at 0.0309 has been left behind, while RSI 14 is at 95.81, indicating extreme overbought conditions. 4H MACD bullish momentum is still expanding, while the 1H red histogram bars are shortening, showing weakening short-term upward momentum.

I’m not holding $SYRUP because someone told me to.
I’m holding because I believe in what @maplefinance is building; a team focused on bringing institutional grade credit and yield on-chain, backed by a growing ecosystem and community.
Markets change ➡️Sentiment changes 🔁Narratives come and go But real conviction is built when things aren’t easy.
$SYRUP is a long-term bet on Maple’s vision, execution, and the future of institutional DeFi...
The journey continues......

8.10 Jingchuan Gold Morning Market Analysis
Market review: After Friday’s nonfarm payrolls data was released, gold prices surged strongly, reaching a high of 4371 before retreating somewhat toward the close. They are currently fluctuating around 4340. The broader bullish trend remains intact, but after the consecutive rally, the market’s RSI is in overbought territory, and short-term upward momentum has weakened somewhat. The market entered a high-level consolidation phase in the morning session.
Technically, short-term resistance above lies at 4370‑4400, with initial support below at 4320 and

Upon waking up, Buffett started turning around—Berkshire Hathaway’s second-quarter results are out:
1) Net profit was $25.66 billion, more than doubling from last year’s $12.3 billion, entirely propped up by $13 billion in unrealized investment gains.
2) Operating profit was $13 billion, up 16%. Energy, railroads, and manufacturing all performed strongly, with only insurance lagging somewhat.
3) The real focus is that its cash reserves hit a record $397 billion in the first quarter, then fell to $365.5 billion in the second quarter—a whopping $31.5 billion spent at once. This was Abel’s first

It has been a long time since my last update. I’ve been caught up with various matters recently, but today I’m officially back and will continue sharing market insights!
8.10 Gold Morning Analysis:
Nonfarm payrolls drove gold prices to open higher, with prices maintaining a high-level consolidation. After a sustained rise, indicators have entered overbought territory, bullish momentum has slowed, and there is a risk of a short-term pullback. Do not blindly chase the rally.
The bullish trend on the larger timeframe remains unchanged, with strong resistance at 4370–4400 above; short-term support
