This past week...
South Korea’s stock market had its worst week since 2008. Down 14.5%
Chip stocks had their longest losing streak in almost 20 years
CoreWeave fell 25% & the market started pricing its debt like there’s a 60% chance it defaults
Oil closed at almost $110
The VIX almost hit 20
& my timeline was full of people calling it the start of the AI crash...
So what did the S&P 500 do?
Down 1.95% for the week...
It’s 2% off its all time high & still up about 12% on the year.
This is not a crash my friends...
So what did I do this week?
Pretty much nothing.
Allocated a little more to a few

Someone bought 248.8 Bitcoin in 2013 for $88,000.
They watched Mt. Gox happen. They watched China ban crypto. They watched FTX collapse.
Never sold a single coin.
That wallet is worth $20.2 million today.
13 years of doing absolutely nothing turned out to be the best trade of their life. $BTC

After the riots in France
Le Pen’s odds on Polymarket rose by 10%+
Her platform also calls for tighter immigration controls and putting the country first
Expanding social welfare and securing retirement benefits
But at present, whoever wins
If they fail to secure a majority of seats in the subsequent parliamentary elections
France will still remain in this sorry state
France is a microcosm of all of Europe
A microcosm held hostage by democracy
But in reality, the conflicts all erupt in city centers
And European city centers are also a different concept from those in East Asia

He’s the most impressive crypto big shot I’ve seen who took on the real task of building from small beginnings. You can score red envelopes during his regular livestreams, and, more importantly, ride along on trades—the kind he shares for free in the livestreams

Someone asked me why I went all-in on CRCL. I missed out on Bitcoin earlier, so I could only look for a relatively safer project. I don’t want to be a dead fish anymore—it’s that simple. I originally planned to build positions in BTC, SOL, and CRCL. The first two have already risen, while CRCL is the only one still at a low level. I want to take a shot, and I can accept being stuck for a year.

$WLD has already moved. Why hasn't trading activity followed?
$WLD There is a very typical debate right now: one side cites the 24-hour -0.84% move as proof of direction, while the other pushes back with key levels. I’m not taking sides based on the percentage change for now, because the full picture is still unclear: $WLD has already moved, but trading activity and volume have yet to catch up. We can tentatively trust the direction, but not its continuation; a move without follow-through can be reversed at any time.
My view is that the direction is tentatively there, but low participation has

Use price-volume action to find opportunities in $ZEC ; the levels and exit lines are here
When I looked at $ZEC again, I first set aside the 24-hour -3.28%. It’s not that this number is unimportant, but it’s too easy for it to grab your attention. What really needs explaining right now is that the price of $ZEC has moved, but trading activity and volume haven’t kept up. We can tentatively trust the direction, but not its continuation; a move without follow-through can be reversed at any moment.
My view is that the direction is still there for now, but low participation has reduced the credibi

Gold is continuing to trade sideways in the $4065–$4227 range. I #XAUUSD 'deki bu yatay seyrin düşüş yönlü kırılacağını düşünüyorum. 3700$'a kadar bir geri çekilme mümkün bence. #Gold

#GT You can acquire the token without worrying that Gate will delist it, and it’s Gate’s own token—because if Gate misled its own token, that would be comedy. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
