BITCOIN IS 9 DAYS AWAY FROM A MAJOR HISTORICAL TEST.
The U.S. midterm elections are set for November 3.
Look at what happened around previous midterm cycles:
2014: BTC dropped 65%
2018: BTC dropped 52%
2022: BTC dropped 27%
Now 2026 is approaching, and traders are watching the $73,000 support zone.
History points to serious downside risk, but those crashes weren't necessarily caused by elections.
Will Bitcoin break the pattern this time, or is another brutal correction waiting?

Bitcoin Is Becoming a National Security Topic
The U.S. Defense Secretary reportedly confirmed in April that Bitcoin can be used to project power and that the Pentagon has classified initiatives involving the technology.
Meanwhile, the head of U.S. Indo-Pacific Command told Congress that his command already operates a node on the Bitcoin network.
Why it matters: Bitcoin is increasingly part of discussions around strategic infrastructure, digital technology, and national security—not just financial markets.
Could government involvement become another long-term factor in Bitcoin's adoption?

A buyback announcement means little to me until the tokens actually leave circulation.
That’s what caught my attention with @grvt_io.
The GRVT token issuer has completed its first buyback, purchasing 1.1M ethereum:0xad29f2723fcdbcf665f210f25e06f97477e417cf on the open market and permanently burning them.
That represented nearly 1% of circulating supply at the time.
Here's the important distinction: these tokens weren't moved into a treasury where they could potentially re-enter circulation.
They were burned, with onchain transaction records available for anyone to verify.
Future buybacks are

Does a Larger Token Supply Mean a Lower Price? Don’t Be Misled by Unit Price
In the cryptocurrency market, there’s a common way of thinking:
“This token only costs a few cents. If it rises to $1, wouldn’t I make a lot?”
It sounds very appealing, but this reasoning overlooks a key issue: a token’s unit price alone cannot reflect a project’s value.
I. Why Aren’t Low-Priced Tokens Necessarily Cheaper?
Suppose there are two hypothetical projects:
Project A: 1 billion tokens in circulation, priced at $1 each.
Project B: 100 billion tokens in circulation, priced at $0.01 each.
By a simple calculatio

$ETH ETH is currently at 2326. On October 25, it tracked BTC in choppy, slightly weak trading. Near-term resistance is 2360; repeated tests failed to hold above it. Continued outflows from spot ETFs are weighing on buying, while four-hour indicators are bearish and volume is subdued. Near-term support is 2300, with strong support at 2280 and key resistance above at 2400. ETH is primarily moving in tandem with BTC and lacks sufficient independent upward momentum. ETH will only have a chance to rebound and recover if BTC holds the 80000 level. A break below 2280 would open up further downside. A

That’s Schrödinger’s Trump for you:
I might attack Iran, or I might make a deal—it all depends on what position I open.
Either way,
when you go long, Trump attacks;
when you go short, Trump makes a deal.
Man, he’s just messing with you!
I’m just curious,
does Trump pull this stuff and not worry about being held accountable after he leaves office?🧐

#Gate广场万圣节 Buying the dip halfway up the mountain: I thought I’d caught a falling knife, but it kept on falling
🎃 Halloween is here, so here’s a true story scarier than any ghost—one I experienced firsthand😁

I bought the Dogecoin spot dip around 0.11, thinking I’d caught a golden shovel, but it turned out to be a falling knife.
The worst part is, the knife is still falling, and I’m already stuck at the mountaintop, shivering in the cold.

Every day I stare at the K-line and chant: Bounce, bounce, bounce…🧙♂️

The real Halloween horror movie, it turns out, is my own portfolio.😭

$LIGHT : Sellers Have Another Zone to Defend
$LIGHT is trading around $0.314 and has returned to a supply zone that has triggered multiple rejections. The key question is whether sellers can defend this area again.
Short Entry: $0.314–$0.325
Invalidation: $0.345
Downside Targets:
TP1: $0.301
TP2: $0.291
TP3: $0.282
My approach is to scale in gradually, with greater interest near the upper end of the supply zone. A liquidity wick higher remains possible, so entering the full position too early could increase risk.
If sellers defend this zone, the lower targets remain in focus. A sustained move

$SOL ‌ is stuck in a heavy downtrend, and the bounce is looking too weak to break through the moving average wall.
Trading Plan Short SOL
Entry: 100.50 - 101.50
SL: 104.50
TP1: 98.57
TP2: 96.00
TP3: 94.50
SOL is down 0.55% today at $100.85, and the 4-hour chart is clearly bearish. Price is trading below all three key moving averages: MA5 at $101.65, MA10 at $101.67, and MA30 at $104.17. That's a textbook bearish alignment, with the MA30 acting as a heavy ceiling.
The MACD is also confirming the weakness. The histogram is negative at -0.15, and DIF at -1.01 is sitting below DEA at -0.85. The m

📉 Spot Gold Falls Below $4,000: Precious Metals Face Renewed Selling Pressure
The global gold market has entered a challenging phase as spot gold briefly dropped below the psychologically important $4,000-per-ounce level on October 23, 2026. The decline pushed prices to their lowest levels since July, highlighting growing uncertainty across financial markets. Gold also recorded a sharp weekly loss as investors reassessed inflation risks, interest-rate expectations, and the outlook for the global economy.

The October 25 subscription order is legendary once again, delivering perfect profits

$ETH , not Bitcoin, took the biggest hit from forced selling on Oct 24, with $124.0M liquidated and most of it from leveraged buyers. Recorded liquidations reached $414.6M, far above the 7 day average of $258.5M.

In 2000, at a restaurant in Shanghai, 29-year-old Li Yapeng was surprisingly handsome. No wonder Faye Wong pursued him.
