August 13 Market Update: CPI data comes in mild, BTC stabilizes at $63,800, building momentum at the bottom ahead of a potential trend change】
📊 Today's key data:
• BTC spot price: ~$63,750 – $63,900 (narrow, slight 24H fluctuations, holding the key $63,500 support)
• Macro indicators: The latest U.S. July CPI rose 3.4% year-on-year (slightly below the previous 3.5%). The moderate easing in inflation has eased market concerns about further tightening by the Federal Reserve, sending U.S. Treasury yields lower.
• Sentiment and capital flows: The Fear and Greed Index remains at 37 (fear zone).

Currently, approximately 41.1 million ETH are staked on Ethereum, accounting for about 34% of the total supply.
More notably, approximately 2.44M ethereum:native are also in the validator entry queue, with the waiting time reaching about 42 days;
while the exit queue has only about 480 ETH, which is almost negligible.

Perfect Storm Index™ 13 Aug 2026
Today’s PSI: 58/100 🟠
Risk Environment: Elevated
Bias: Risk-Off / Cautious
Risk has eased fractionally from yesterday’s 59, but the backdrop remains uncomfortable.
✅ VIX and credit stress remain subdued
✅ Inflation/Fed pressure has improved slightly
⚠️ US yields remain elevated
⚠️ Oil and geopolitical risk remain firm
⚠️ #Bitcoin trend and Elliott Wave structure still favour caution
The key point: we are not in a full “Perfect Storm”, but conditions remain vulnerable to deterioration.
A simultaneous rise in DXY, yields, oil and volatility would push PSI quick

🚨 SHAZUSDT SHORT SETUP — Resistance Rejection 📉
I’ve been watching SHAZ closely, and the current structure is giving me a bearish setup.
Price recently made a strong recovery from the lows, but now it has pushed back into the 68.6–73.5 resistance/supply zone. This is the area where I’m looking for sellers to defend and price to start moving lower again.
📍 Short Entry: 66.29–68.5 area
📉 Leverage: 10X–20X
🎯 TP: 40.06
🛑 SL: 78.05
💰 Capital: Use only 5% of your capital
⚠️ Risk management is a must.
The bigger picture still gives me a bearish bias while price remains below that major resista

⚠️ Note... most Twitter recommendations are like this
They look for the latest low, drag it down by -50%, and tell you it is an accumulation zone
Is this technical analysis? Of course not... analysis pulled out of thin air 💯
Because it basically depends on Bitcoin's movement and assumes that if Bitcoin "were to" drop, the other coins would make a new low... but what if Bitcoin does not drop? ... you're left high and dry
I mean... it has nothing to do with technical analysis because it did not consider the support zone in the first place, nor did it rely on technical patterns or any technical

📊According to available data, as of around the end of 2025, the employee counts of major AI labs are as follows
(The difference in scale is extremely large)
OpenAI: approximately 4,500 employees
Anthropic: approximately 4,000 employees
employees
MiniMax: 428 employees
Moonshot AI: approximately 300 employees
DeepSeek: approximately 200 employees
⚠️The data for OpenAI and Anthropic is as of March 2026 (except for and MiniMax, the employee counts of all other companies are estimates).

$BTC ’s short-term supply is declining. This chart does not show “how many people have left”; it shows that the proportion of $BTC that has moved recently is falling. Simply put, there are fewer short-term participants, and more of the supply is gradually aging. Historically, this often occurs in the late stages of a bear market or during an accumulation phase: weak hands gradually exit, and the supply slowly returns to those more willing to hold. But this is not a bottom-fishing signal. It is like feeling hungry: it means it is probably about time to eat, but it does not mean the meal will b

Lately, when looking at exchanges, I’ve been paying less and less attention to how they promote themselves and more to how funds actually move on-chain
Because no matter how lively the marketing sounds, it all comes back to one question:
Did the money really come in?
I took a look at DefiLlama’s CEX data, and this set of figures for @Gate caught my attention
Net inflows exceeded $300 million over 24 hours
Monthly net inflows exceeded $626 million
Monthly net inflows ranked third globally
And this isn’t just short-term capital inflow—Gate’s total assets currently tracked by DefiLl

$MMT fell to 0.1738, crashing 11.96% from 0.2044 over 24 hours on 267 million in trading volume—the price has already returned to the starting point of the rally three days ago, and the battle between bulls and bears is heating up. The most significant news today is that an address belonging to a top market maker placed sell orders for 5 million tokens in batches around 0.18, while on-chain monitoring shows a whale bought 8 million tokens at 0.1750. If you're a short-term trader, this level is a meat grinder; once the 0.17 round-number level is lost, 0.1650 below is the only support, and a bre

#GateHits59MillionUsers
Gate’s global user base has surpassed 59 million, marking another major milestone on its journey toward 60 million users.
Since its founding in 2013, Gate has continued to expand from a cryptocurrency trading platform into a broader global multi-asset ecosystem. Reaching more than 59 million users represents not only the scale of its community, but also the growing demand for accessible digital asset and financial products across international markets.
The latest milestone puts Gate only 1 million users away from the 60 million mark. While the difference may look small

July CPI In Line as Inflation Cools 📉
US Consumer Price Index for July came in as expected:
• Headline CPI: +0.1% m/m → 3.4% y/y (down from 3.5%)
• Core CPI: +0.2% m/m → 2.5% y/y
Energy prices fell 1.5% on the month, helping cool the overall reading. Shelter remained the main driver of the monthly increase.
The data confirms a continued moderation in inflation pressure after the June drop, giving markets a cleaner read ahead of the next Fed decision.
Risk assets may find some relief as the cooler print reduces near-term rate-hike urgency — though inflation is still running above the 2% target
