NFTs on RH Are Heating Up Again
NFT activity on RH has been gaining momentum, bringing back memories of the 2021–2022 NFT era that many newcomers never experienced.
Interestingly some projects that faded away years ago are starting to reappear and position themselves around the renewed NFT narrative. If this wave continues, older projects could use the momentum to revive their brands, collections, or communities.
A few things are worth watching:
- Revisit NFT projects you previously followed.
- Watch for dormant collections making a comeback.
- Pay attention to renewed community activity and n

28k yesterday, 30k today—at this torturously slow pace, I’ll still have to slog through another 230 days to reach 500k views. By then, once I collect the subsistence allowance Musk hands out, I can officially announce that I’m checking out! 😂 This isn’t a creator incentive at all—it’s clearly cyber bricklaying. Before the bricks are all moved, I’ll have aged first.

$BB wicked down to 0.0112 ten minutes ago and has now bounced back to 0.0115, but it’s down 10% over 24 hours. Do you think this is a dip-buying opportunity? Check the funding rate first—it has been negative for 6 consecutive hours, meaning shorts are paying to hold their positions. Catching a falling knife at a time like this is no different from testing the blade with your face.
Today, the Fear & Greed Index plunged from yesterday’s 68 straight to 29, right on the edge of the fear zone. Even more strikingly, $BB ’s futures open interest surged 12% over the past 4 hours while the price fell

Fed Rate Hike Odds Ease
Markets are now pricing a 40.1% chance of a Fed rate hike in September, down from 48.4% a day earlier, according to CME FedWatch.
That shift suggests traders are becoming less confident about another hike, which could support risk assets if the trend continues.
For crypto, Fed expectations remain a key market driver. 👀

Gold Market Analysis: $XAU (2026-8-13)
From the higher timeframe and hourly timeframe perspectives, gold has encountered a major resistance level, with three consecutive attempts to push higher and form wicks without breaking through. I directly entered a small-position short at market 📉
A volume-price divergence has appeared on the hourly timeframe, and it appears that the decline is not over yet~
As long as there is no volume-backed breakout above 4460 followed by holding above that level, there is no need to worry about the short position, and you can continue shorting. Downside target: ar

Investors are watching inflation closely as softer price pressure could support a more balanced outlook for interest rates and broader financial markets.

🚨 Bitcoin ETFs just recorded a $46.8M net outflow.
After weeks of strong inflows, this is a notable shift but it's not a bearish reversal just yet.

📊 $52.45B in cumulative net inflows
₿ 651,510 BTC accumulated through spot ETFs
💰 $79.09B in total ETF AUM
Institutional demand is still very much alive.
The key question now is whether this is just a short-term pause or the beginning of a broader trend.
👀 If inflows return while Bitcoin holds key support, that's a bullish signal.
⚠️ If outflows continue and BTC starts losing major support levels, caution
