the keeper's word :
there is nobody left who remembers you young
the ones who knew the version of you before all this

How could a gambler lose every day? Machi has turned things around.

On August 19, 2026, the New York Fed’s Open Market Desk settled a standard $4.243 billion purchase of short-term Treasury bills, injecting short-term liquidity into the banking system as part of routine reserve management. While crypto traders quickly highlighted the move as a "BULLISH" catalyst for digital asset markets, analysts emphasize it reflects scheduled SOMA portfolio operations rather than net-new stimulus. Combined with broader Treasury buybacks totaling $8 billion this month, the operational settlement helped expand bank reserves and bolster macro liquidity, providing a steady base

ETH 2320 short position is profitable

$UNITREE @A pullback-long signal has appeared, so I entered a live long again; there is no price-movement limit during the five trading days before Unitree Technology’s A-share listing. As the “first humanoid robotics stock,” online sentiment is extremely bullish. Given its astonishing 85.28% turnover on the first A-share trading day (a major reshuffling of holders), it will most likely surge for a second time and retest the resistance above. #宇树科技上市首日大涨629% #BTC升破69000美元日内涨幅6.43%

How to screen for 100x- and 1,000x-potential assets in a bull market
1. Choose the right sector, with a high enough ceiling, strong potential, and ample room for growth;
2. This year's hot sectors are the BTC ecosystem, ETH ecosystem, and SOL ecosystem;
3. The BTC ecosystem has produced assets with 100x, 1,000x, and 10,000x returns, with a clear wealth effect;
4. The ETH and BSC ecosystems have performed ordinarily, with no dark horse projects emerging for now and no wealth effect visible at present;
5. The SOL ecosystem has seen many coins surge this year, creating a wealth effect, with mostl

Some are happy while others are worried. After repeatedly reminding everyone to mainly go long and watch for a rebound, the expected 67,705 has basically been reached; only the final target level remains. Would it be too much for Er-ge, this die-hard bull, to come out and put on a ✗? Of course, as I always say, there is no right or wrong between bulls and bears in the market, but if you keep holding a position without cutting losses, that is your fault. I have closed all my bottom-fishing long positions. For the rest of the time, I’ll just wait for an opportunity to short again. Good luck, eve

The explosive surge really did exceed expectations somewhat.
Although I had already judged that it would most likely rally to this level over the past two days, I didn’t expect it to surge straight up overnight.
So what should we do at this level now? Let’s take another look at BTC.
After several long weeks of bottoming out, BTC has finally released the momentum for this move. That’s also why I’ve been emphasizing looking for long positions at lower levels over the past few days, because this upward force was already visible from the market structure.

The real cost of a bitcoin ETF: expense ratios, tracking error, and what holders actually
keep
Bitcoin ETFs charge fees that compound over years. This analysis runs the full arithmetic on expense ratios, tracking error, tax treatment, and self custody trade offs across all 11 U.S. spot funds.
BlackRock's IBIT charges a 0.25% annual expense ratio after its promotional waiver expired, meaning a $100,000 position loses $250 in the first year to fees alone, compounding to approximately $2,528 over ten years assuming the bitcoin price stays flat.
Grayscale's GBTC charges 1.50% annually, six times t
