Fed Dot Plot: 16 Officials Expect Another Rate Hike in 2026
Jin10 Data, September 17 — The Federal Reserve announced today (17th) that it would raise interest rates by 25 basis points, its first rate hike of 2026. The Fed’s latest dot plot shows that 18 of the 19 officials submitted projections (unchanged from June), with 16 believing rates should be raised again this year. Specifically, 4 officials believe rates should be raised by a cumulative 75 basis points in 2026 (1 in June), 12 believe rates should be raised by a cumulative 50 basis points (5 in June), 2 believe rates should be raised b

$1.2 trillion valuation: Is OpenAI really worth that much?
Guys, when I saw the news that OpenAI is reportedly seeking a $1.2 trillion valuation in pre-IPO financing, my first reaction was—is there an extra zero in that number?
After thinking about it calmly, it doesn't seem quite so outrageous. After all, its valuation was still around $852 billion in March, and now it has jumped straight to $1.2 trillion, an increase of roughly 41%. The key point is that this isn't even the IPO yet—it's only the pre-IPO financing valuation. The IPO won't happen before 2027, which means this $1.2 trillion is

$ETH Ethereum is currently in a correction (3H)
Ethereum appears to have completed a bullish double combination, with the second part of the structure forming as a diametric pattern.
If price pulls back into the supply zone, we could see a bearish reaction toward the targets marked on the chart. After reaching these levels, price may enter another corrective phase.
The targets are clearly marked on the chart for reference.
A daily candle close above the invalidation level would invalidate this analysis.

$ARB /USDT - LONG

Trade Plan:
Entry: 0.15560 – 0.15834
SL: 0.14382
TP1: 0.16684
TP2: 0.17341
TP3: 0.18328

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend has turned bullish, and a 95 percent confidence score on the 4 hour time frame signals strong alignment. The 1h ATR of 0.005481 shows enough volatility to fuel a clean move, while the 15m RSI at 38.6 suggests the asset is still oversold and accumulating. The entry zone between 0.15560 and 0.15834 gives a precise fill near the 1h price of 0.15695, with TP1 at 0.16684

#WhereToParkStablecoinsWhileWaiting
When BTC can't decide between a breakout and another sell-off, I don't think the answer is to pick a side with all my money. I’d rather keep my capital working while keeping enough liquidity to react.
Right now, the market is sitting in an uncomfortable zone. BTC is dealing with major macro uncertainty around the Fed, while traders are still trying to understand whether the current weakness is a deeper correction or simply another opportunity to buy the dip.
That changes how I would manage 10,000 USDT.
My priority in this kind of market is not chasing the h

Iran parliament speaker just posted this. Basically he is saying, “INTEREST RATE HIKES CANNOT REOPEN THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ." Thus, expect more rising prices/inflation in oil and the delivery of goods and services as most everything revolves around energy.

$ZEC Momentum Is Back
ZEC is showing strong buying pressure after yesterday’s pullback. Price reclaimed the $1,200 area, putting the bulls back in focus.
The key now is whether ZEC can hold above $1,200 and build acceptance there. A sustained move above this level could keep the current momentum intact, while losing it could bring another pullback toward the recent support zone.
Watching ZEC closely as volatility remains high.

An exchange CEO’s judgment is rather harsh: AI is a “net negative” for the crypto industry.
Federico Variola of Phemex believes AI is siphoning off capital that would otherwise flow into crypto while empowering attackers; rising cybersecurity costs could also push the industry toward a more centralized structure—as only large institutions can afford them.
This perspective is worth considering: over the past few years, “AI + Crypto” has been framed as a unified narrative, but at least in terms of capital and talent, the two look more like competitors.

Major development confirmed ❗ The Fed raised interest rates by 25 basis points for the first time in three years, lifting the benchmark rate to 3.75%-4.00%, after keeping rates unchanged for five consecutive meetings.
This rate hike was in line with market expectations. Tighter liquidity directly pressured risk assets, weighing on BTC.
Keep a close eye on the post-meeting remarks: if this is a one-off hike, the bearish news will be fully priced in; if hawkish comments signal continued rate hikes, further downside will open up.
Market volatility will surge sharply. Be sure to use proper risk co

Fear & Greed Index: 51, neutral. NIL is currently priced at 0.03965, down 3.27% over 24h, with trading volume at only 0.4M. MA5 has crossed below MA20, RSI at 37.6 is relatively weak, the MACD bearish histogram has not narrowed, and the funding rate is +0.0050%, meaning longs are still paying. Neither sentiment nor the broader market is providing support. $NIL is currently near the lower Bollinger Band at 0.03953; a light long position can be cautiously attempted on a short-term rebound, but insufficient volume requires quick entry and exit. Also monitor: $IO and $WBTC have relatively strong

Insiders are quietly fading the daily bullish trend on $ZEC /USDT right now.

$ZEC /USDT - SHORT

Trade Plan:
Entry: 1239.70 – 1253.66
SL: 1333.80
TP1: 1181.34
TP2: 1137.78
TP3: 1072.44

Why this setup?
Why now? The 4h trend is short-biased with 84% confidence, even though the 1d trend remains bullish, creating a clash that favors downside. The 1h ATR of 27.92 shows enough volatility to make a move from the entry zone at 1246.68 meaningful. The 15m RSI at 64.36 is still rising but has room to roll over before hitting overbought. TP1 is 1181.34, TP2 is 1137.78, and TP3 is 1072.44, offering a

What should you do with your positions if the market suddenly turns bullish? I’ve planned three steps in advance
Today, let’s talk about an issue many people overlook: if the market suddenly turns bullish, can your current fund allocation keep up?
When the bull or bear market is still uncertain, most people only think about “how to defend” and forget to plan ahead for “how to attack.” Once the market really takes off, they scramble to adjust their positions—either chasing the highs and getting trapped, or hesitating and missing out. So today I’ve planned responses for three scenarios in advanc

Continue holding and waiting, or accumulate in batches on dips? I chose a third option
When the bull and bear markets have yet to be determined, the most classic soul-searching question is: continue holding and waiting, or accumulate in batches on dips?
There are two types of people around me. One says: “The market is unclear, so stay fully in cash and wait until the trend becomes clear before entering.” The other says: “It has fallen so much—what are you waiting for if not to buy the dip?” Both arguments make sense, but both have problems.
First, the wait-and-see camp. Staying fully in cash u

I don't really want to exit this long position, as the technicals suggest there should still be a short-term rebound, but the position is a bit too large, so I'll just treat it as a short-term trade—the long from yesterday's low～😁

The Fear and Greed Index has returned to 51. Is FET’s decline a risk or an opportunity? My answer: this is a structural pullback amid a neutral, range-bound market, not a trend reversal, and $FET offers short-term dip-buying value.
First, sentiment. The Fear and Greed Index at 51 is in the neutral zone, with neither panic selling pressure nor overheated greed. In this environment, capital tends to rotate into oversold assets. BTC has recently lacked directional momentum, major coins have generally edged lower, and FET is down 3.28% over 24h with a trading volume of 8.7M USDT, representing a l
