Bitcoin is testing the $64,000 pivot again.
BTC swept the $63K lows, found buyers and ripped back to $64,529 before getting rejected and settling back around $64K.
This is the level that matters now.
Hold $64K and I’m watching $65K first, then $65.7K.
A clean reclaim of $65.7K would be a meaningful shift in structure and opens the door towards $67.2K.
But if $64K fails, I’d expect another move towards $63K.
Lose $63K on a 4H close and the bounce is invalidated.
Then I’d be looking towards $61K.
For me, the map is simple:
$63K = floor
$64K = pivot
$65.7K = confirmation
$67.2K = next major resis

NVIDIA, OpenAI, and the 12 Gigawatt Computing Power Revolution

The artificial intelligence industry has reached a turning point. On August 17, 2026, NVIDIA and OpenAI formally announced a strategic partnership to deploy at least 10 gigawatts of NVIDIA systems for OpenAI's next-generation AI infrastructure. Combined with OpenAI's existing and planned NVIDIA deployments, the total secured computing capacity now stands at approximately 12 gigawatts, with the potential to expand to 16 gigawatts if NVIDIA extends its commitment in Ohio.

Gate’s 7-Day Net Inflow Ranks Among the Global Top 3 — What Is the Market Telling Us?
According to DeFiLlama data, Gate recorded more than $273 million in net inflows over the past seven days, placing it among the top three centralized exchanges globally during this period. For me, this is a figure that deserves more attention than simply being another exchange statistic. Net inflow provides a useful view of how much capital is moving toward an exchange after accounting for capital flowing out. When the balance remains strongly positive, it can indicate that users are activel
