Lately, the Clarity bill has been completely stuck in the Senate, leaving everyone yawning and wondering whether the market will have to sit on the sidelines indefinitely. But the SEC seems just as impatient, and it is carving out its own path with two fairly earth-shaking moves.
Around August 14, the SEC is set to discuss a dedicated issuance framework for crypto contracts. This could be a major win for projects, giving them a clearer path forward and reducing the risk of being lumped together and hit with traditional securities laws as before. The agency is also considering a limited exempti

A whale withdrew another 9,000 ETH (approximately $16.87 million) from Gemini today. Over the past month, the wallet has withdrawn approximately 121k ETH (approximately $227 million) in total, transferred it to self-custody, and staked most of its holdings.

Today's sharp take on Sandisk: $SNDK
U.S. stocks fell broadly yesterday, but Sandisk remained strong at elevated levels. Once the daily downtrend line is broken, the upside will open up. 📈
Key support below: around 1164. This level can serve as the stop-loss for a medium- to long-term entry.
I prefer to enter a long position at market with a small position, then, when it falls to around 1220, add another position ➕. Set a stop-loss if 1164 is breached.

#GateRankedTop3Globally
Gate continues to strengthen its position in the global crypto market, with Gate highlighting a Top 3 global ranking in overall comprehensive strength and Top 2 globally in spot trading volume and liquidity.

The BTC short strategy disclosed in advance hit perfectly, with both take-profit levels reached and over 1,300+ points captured🔥
On the morning of August 11, a resistance entry at 64,500–64,800 was given, with the first target at 63,800–63,600 and the second target at 63,200–63,000.
After surging to a high of 64,474, the market plunged directly, reaching a low of 63,162. Not only were both take-profit levels hit, but the drop also exceeded expectations!
With the market cautious ahead of CPI, any rebound is an opportunity to short. Levels are disclosed in advance and the trend validates them a

Little Genius: Gold enters range-bound consolidation; tonight’s CPI will determine strength or weakness
The long entry levels given yesterday were not reached. Instead, gold showed a typical high-level surge-and-pullback washout, with the intraday high reaching 4435 before coming under pressure and retreating, quickly falling to test the key support at 4350.
The daily candle ultimately closed as a bearish candle with a long upper shadow. A long upper-shadow candlestick indicates heavy selling pressure above, with clear profit-taking by bulls at high levels. Short-term upward momentum needs to

8.12 Market Analysis
Bitcoin Silk Road reference setup
Entry range: around 64200–64700, Kong
Zhishun: above 65100
First target: 63200; second target: 62500
After probing down to 632 last night, the market only saw a weak, slight rebound. The 4-hour Bollinger Bands are opening downward, and the MACD death cross clearly indicates a bearish trend. KDJ has entered the oversold zone and may see a slight rebound. There may be a short-term recovery, but the overall direction is bearish. Do not chase shorts; wait for a rebound before entering.
Choosing the right direction is the key to making pr

July CPI Could Redefine the September Fed Narrative
The July US CPI report is arriving at a critical moment for global markets.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is scheduled to release July CPI today, August 12, at 8:30 AM ET. Markets are looking for approximately +0.1% month-over-month headline CPI and +0.2% MoM core CPI, with annual headline inflation expected around 3.4% and core inflation around 2.5%.
But the real story is not simply whether inflation rises or falls.
The bigger question is whether June's unusually soft inflation report represented the beginning of a sus

Good morning this Wednesday, friends! 🌻
A dream is like a seed waiting to bloom. Before it breaks through the soil, no one knows whether it will wither away in silence or burst into dazzling bloom. We may still lack strength, or may not yet have achieved what we seek, but we must never lose our direction or ambition.
This is even more true of investing. Every step must be calculated, and every trade must have its logic. Speculation without a plan is nothing more than blindly running around like a headless fly, only to be swallowed by the market's torrent in the end. What Brother Liang shares

The Eve of Tonight’s 8:30 CPI Showdown: Who Is Holding Their Breath Amid the Tug-of-War Between Bulls and Bears?
With the countdown to the U.S. July CPI data at 20:30 tonight underway, global capital markets are entering an extremely sensitive and delicate “silent period.” For major assets such as gold, prices will likely continue to fluctuate and consolidate at high levels before the data is released. This is not accidental, but the inevitable result of the multiple resonance of current macroeconomic fundamentals and technical factors.
