Guys, there’s a reason prices can’t move higher right now.
Yesterday’s meeting minutes were released, but they had absolutely no impact on the broader market—there was no reaction whatsoever!
The main reason is that there are too many people going long, with retail longs everywhere.
Whether it’s Bitcoin or Ethereum, retail traders going long are everywhere.
Under this macro pressure and in these market conditions, with so many retail traders going long, the market makers’ willingness to push prices higher is naturally very low.
Look at $ETH : it was dumped from 2725 to 2536, and now i

September FOMC Minutes, October CPI and the Next Big Move for BTC and U.S. Stocks
My Market View
The September Fed minutes have changed the short-term macro conversation, but in my view they have not created a clear signal for an October rate hike. The Federal Reserve raised the policy rate by 25 basis points at the September 15–16 meeting, taking the target range to 3.75%–4.00%, while the minutes showed that inflation risks remained tilted to the upside.
At the same time, market pricing has moved strongly toward an October pause. Recent Fed-funds futures pricing showed

💥🤔 Pi Blockchain for Elections: Ambition or Delusion? 🗳️🌐
“Pi has revolutionized KYC worldwide, but if its application is merely to log in to social networks or open a bank account... then spending years just to optimize it does not seem reasonable.”
This speculation is entirely reasonable. If Pi Network is used merely for ordinary identity verification tasks, which banks and Web2 social media platforms already handle quite effectively, then there is no reason to spend years building and refining a large-scale KYC system.
Could Pi Network be applied to elections in a democratic country lik

LTF BTC doesn't look great.
If we don't manage to go back in the range I believe we are likely going down - first target around 81k after that 79k and 75k are the strongest supports. 🛑

#FedSeptemberMinutesLeanHawkish
🏦 The Fed Sounds Hawkish, But Bitcoin Is Waiting for the Next Inflation Test
The latest Fed minutes have put traders in an interesting position. Policymakers still see a possibility of another rate hike before the end of the year, but the market is not convinced that October is the right moment. Current pricing puts the probability of an October hike below 20%, leaving investors increasingly focused on a potential pause now and another policy move later in the year.
That difference between what the Fed wants the market to believe and what traders are actually

The whales are squeezing the shorts—not to let you get on board, but to turn your short positions into fuel! Viewpoint: Many people feel tempted when they see $MET surge from 0.28 to 0.53, but this is a classic short squeeze. The funding rate is -0.38%, meaning shorts are paying, which shows that the whales have no intention of turning back—they are using the rally to “suffocate” shorts one by one in the trade. Case analysis: Look at the liquidation data: $2.48 million in short positions were liquidated, 2.6 times the amount of long positions! This is where the whales are most ruthless—using

Would you cut your losses on BTC at $83,000?
Oil prices jumped to $102 overnight, the Fed minutes just put “another hike by year-end” back on the table, and another $410 million was liquidated across 92k accounts in 24 hours—BTC dropped another level from $84,000, breaking straight through $83,000. Is this the “second leg down” or the start of a crash?
First, the surface picture: two legs down in succession, leaving the bulls stunned.
It briefly fell to $82,100 in the Asian morning session, down 1.6% in 24 hours. Yesterday’s low of $83,560 failed to hold, and today it also broke through $83,00

#RobinhoodAdds$25MBitcoinToBalanceSheet
Robinhood just made a move that looks small on the balance sheet but could be much bigger as a signal for Bitcoin adoption.
The company has added approximately $25 million of Bitcoin to its corporate balance sheet, its first publicly reported proprietary BTC allocation. At Bitcoin prices around the mid-$80K range, that works out to roughly 292 BTC. Robinhood’s crypto chief Johann Kerbrat made it clear that the purpose is not to dramatically change the company’s financial profile, but to align Robinhood more closely with the Bitcoin and broader crypto e
