⚡ The October 21 Countdown
Solana’s next major technical milestone is approaching. According to the Solana Foundation’s October 2026 upgrade documentation, Alpenglow is scheduled to activate on mainnet at the beginning of epoch 1064, approximately October 21 at 15:00 UTC. That is a planned activation, not a completed upgrade: the Foundation’s published status still lists mainnet as not activated. The transition must be verified on-chain when it happens.

Update on the Ledger devices with spy chips, because this has now reached Spain.
MediaMarkt has removed all Ledger devices from its stores and website in every country. Spain included.
Why? A user in Germany says they bought two at MediaMarkt, opened them, and found cables and mobile phone parts inside that should not have been there.
For those who missed it: a few days ago, it became known that tampered Ledger devices had been sold through a distributor in Southeast Asia. They contained a hidden component that read the 24 words during setup and sent them elsewhere through a hidden mobile conn

🚨 US SEPTEMBER PPI: WILL INFLATION PUSH BITCOIN LOWER OR TRIGGER A MARKET RECOVERY?
My Original Market View | October 15, 2026
Inflation is back in the spotlight! After hotter-than-expected US CPI data, September PPI is the next major test for Bitcoin, stocks, gold, the US dollar, and Federal Reserve rate expectations.
My view is cautious: the market needs confirmation before buyers can confidently take control. A hot PPI report could increase selling pressure, but a cooler result could trigger a relief rally. The key is how prices react aft

ETH at $2,360—would you dare buy the dip?
Over 90% of longs were just liquidated, ETFs saw $130 million in outflows in one day, and everyone is shouting “the bear is here”—but RSI has fallen to 34, with the 200-day moving average right under our feet. Is this ultimately the last chance to escape, or a golden pit dug by market manipulators?
First, the surface: blood is everywhere, and panic is at an extreme.
From 2,800 in late September all the way down to 2,360, ETH fell 5% intraday alongside BTC. Liquidations over 24 hours totaled $290 million, 90% of them from longs—which means that over the

#美国9月PPI数据公布 #每周来晒 US September PPI exam begins tonight at 20:30: CPI has already pushed the probability of an October hike to 42%. Will PPI deliver a “final blow” or call a halt?

I. First, the forecast: PPI will likely “remain elevated,” but the key is the “structure”
Market expectations: US September headline PPI is expected to rise around 0.6% m/m, continuing CPI’s “energy-led” characteristic—the inflation pressure at the production end is “significant, but structurally narrow.”
My forecast: The probability of headline PPI exceeding expectations is not high (oil prices have already been
