【Bitcoin’s rally is consolidating—has it really reached a short-term top?】
Today’s market action was once again slightly weaker than yesterday’s, and many people are starting to worry: Is this rally already nearing its top?
Lao Jin’s answer remains clear: No.
At present, it looks more like a consolidation phase after the rally. After moving up to a certain level, the market needs time to consolidate; it does not have to refresh its highs every day. A truly healthy rise requires volatility and accumulation of momentum before choosing a direction.
Resting is for moving forward

Dumfries’ Right-Side Barrage—Real Madrid’s New Weapon Tonight
Finally, let’s talk about an easily overlooked variable—Dumfries.
In the opening round away against Espanyol, the Dutch right wing-back made a team-high 4 successful interceptions and also made 4 incursions into the box to get shots away. Although he did not score, he already gave the opposing defense plenty of headaches. He was renowned for his explosiveness and boundless stamina at Inter. Real Madrid’s attack is already formidable, and with a wing-back constantly making overlapping runs down the right, Real Sociedad’s left-side de

Trying to turn my life around through trading is just too difficult. I only have a few hundred U left in total; I made a little, but I still have to withdraw it to cover my living expenses, and today I got cut in half again. Every day, all I can think about is making money. I want to make money so badly, and I want so badly to prove myself, but I’m just useless. I can’t find anything proper to do in real life either, so all I can do is take the little money I have left and immerse myself in this virtual world every day. Is my whole life really going to be like this? I can’t accept it.

$SOL
A bit of a correction day in the crypto markets. I think Solana lands around 92.

I originally wanted to cut my losses and sacrifice them to the heavens, but before the sacrifice could happen, the meat roasted itself. During the intraday plunge, $FORM fell so hard it was terrifying, but the key level never broke. I figured it was just a shakeout, so I directly signaled to go long. It has now climbed from 0.2015 to 0.2337, with a return of +770.12%. Feels amazing—this grind was worth it. 🔥

Take profits when it's time: lock in 80% first, and protect the remaining 20% by placing it at the entry price. Don't let cooked ducks fly away. I'd rather miss a limit-up than catch a

$ZEC The daily chart has formed an inverted hammer here, so the downtrend may reverse. The four-hour chart is interesting, moving from 790 to 760: an evening star and a double bottom. Don’t open a position in the middle; chase longs at 790 and chase shorts at 760. On the one-hour chart, it rebounded upon reaching 760. If the rebound moves upward, don’t short anymore. If it fails to rebound and breaks below 760, chase shorts. The likelihood of moving upward is low, but if it does move up, don’t open short positions lightly; the daily resistance level is 870. Experienced traders understand that

BEA’s July PCE release lands today. For crypto, the decision-useful question is not simply “hot or cool?” It is whether the policy and liquidity outlook actually moves. 🧭
Score the release in order:
1. Headline vs. core inflation
2. Goods vs. services pressure
3. Real spending, income and saving
4. Fed pricing, 2Y/10Y yields and the dollar
5. Bitcoin’s response after the first burst of volatility
Hot core + resilient spending + higher yields and dollar = tighter-liquidity confirmation.
Cooler inflation + softer demand + lower yields and dollar = a more supportive backdrop, not an automatic cr

ETH is currently trading at $2,449, down slightly by -0.5% over the past 24 hours, but still up +28.58% over the past 7 days. Institutional funds continue to increase their positions, with ETH spot ETFs recording net inflows for 7 consecutive trading days and a single-day net inflow of $179.8 million. Large purchases by BlackRock and BitMine, among others, provide bullish support; however, the broader market saw profit-taking after BTC’s 23% weekly gain, while PCE inflation data and uncertainty surrounding Federal Reserve policy have made short-term sentiment more cautious. Bullish and bearish

8.26 Gold Midnight Review
The low-buying approach in the evening review went awry. After the U.S. session data, gold prices directly broke below key support and plunged sharply, causing the short-term trend to reverse.
Technical analysis: The 1-hour Bollinger Bands have opened sharply downward, with gold prices trading below the lower band; the 30-minute Bollinger Bands are also expanding downward, the MACD green bars continue to widen, and the RSI has retreated to low levels. The broader bullish structure has been damaged, while short-term bearish momentum is being released strongly.

$7.8 billion in revenue vs. $18.4 billion burned—SpaceX’s “Now” and “What If”
SPCX’s financial report actually tells a very conflicted story.
Where’s the conflict? Revenue looks good, but the cash burn is even more aggressive.
Q2 revenue was $7.81 billion, up 92% year-over-year and far exceeding expectations. Starlink contributed $4.29 billion in revenue and $1.66 billion in profit, making it the company’s only profitable business at present. Starlink added more than 1.7 million global consumer users net in Q2, with ARPU stable at $66. Enterprise and government revenue grew 108% year-over-year
