USDC Circulation Drops by $300 Million in One Week
USDC circulation has slipped by around 300 million tokens over the past 7 days.
According to Circle’s latest data, around 9.1B USDC was issued, while approximately 9.4B USDC was redeemed, bringing the net change in circulation to roughly -300M USDC.
As of September 17, 2026, about 73.8B USDC remains in circulation.
What’s interesting is the reserve side. Circle says USDC is backed 1:1 by highly liquid cash and cash-equivalent assets, with reserves including short-term U.S. Treasuries, overnight reverse repos, and bank deposits.

#SEC批准代币化股票有限链上交易 #Gate广场中秋团圆局 The bill died by one vote, yet Bitcoin rebounded to $81,000: the one stamping crypto's approval has changed
The bill died, by a single vote. Rates were hiked, yet the market did not fall. More bizarrely, when people opened their market apps on Friday morning: Bitcoin had climbed above $81,000, surging more than 6% in a single day to a two-week high; Ethereum rose 7%; Solana gained nearly 12% in one day. About $250 million in short positions were liquidated within four hours.
A bill the crypto industry regarded as its “household registry” was torn apart, yet the m

$LUNC is back in a highly energetic phase, with bullish structure and speculative enthusiasm combining to create a potentially explosive setup. Buyers are showing conviction, while meme-driven attention is rapidly returning to the market.
Such conditions can accelerate quickly when participation expands, making the next move particularly important. Strength across $WIF could further reinforce the current momentum if the broader meme rotation continues heating up.

Good morning everyone! 🌄

Despite nonstop conflicts, defense stocks still cannot gain momentum.
The S&P Aerospace & Defense Select Industry Index has barely changed year to date, despite ongoing conflicts across Eurasia and widespread expectations that a new arms expansion cycle is about to begin. Some analysts believe the pricing on prediction market Polymarket may have provided the answer earlier.
In markets where expectations lead the way, stock prices trade on “what is already known.” Once a thesis is built into everyone’s models, it is no longer a source of excess returns, leaving only the risk of realization.

#美国众院推动比特币储备立法
The most important update around #USHouseAdvancesBitcoinReserveBill is not simply the 28–21 committee vote. It is the amended text that produced that vote. On September 16, the U.S. House Financial Services Committee advanced H.R. 8957, the American Reserve Modernization Act of 2026, by 28–21. The measure now moves toward consideration by the full House, but it is not law and still requires House passage, Senate action and presidential approval before it could take effect.
① The first major change: the purchase mechanism was narrowed. The committee-approved substitute removed t

If #BTC remains above 80,700, the move to 88,000 will occur shortly.

I didn’t make any judgment; I just held it a little longer, and didn’t expect it to really reward me.

When I checked the charts right after lunch, $HOME was clearly facing resistance above, with heavy selling pressure and low trading volume. I judged that the bears weren’t done yet.

From 0.00899 to 0.00625, +2146.81% secured—this trade was satisfying.

I put the bulk in my pocket first, closed 80%, and protected the cost basis on the remaining +2146.20%. Let profits run as it continues lower.

Now is not the time to rush. The market never lacks opportunities; what it lacks is patience.

Smart money is quietly stacking shorts on $XAU /USDT while you are still waiting.

Trade Plan:
Entry: 4381.75 – 4384.69
SL: 4397.37
TP1: 4372.61
TP2: 4365.54
TP3: 4354.93

Why this setup?
Why now? The 4h trend is range bound, which often precedes a sharp directional breakdown. The 1h ATR of 5.89 confirms enough momentum to reach the first target. The 15m RSI at 59.81 shows room to drop before oversold, supporting a move toward 4372.61. Entering near 4383.22 gives a clean risk reward, with the invalidation level at 4369.76 acting as the line in the sand.

$SKY SKYUSDT Forming Bullish Momentum
SKYUSDT is forming a clear bullish momentum pattern, a classic bullish reversal signal that often indicates an upcoming breakout. The price has been consolidating within a narrowing range, suggesting that selling pressure is weakening while buyers are beginning to regain control. With consistent volume confirming accumulation at lower levels, the setup hints at a potential bullish breakout soon. The projected move could lead to an impressive gain of around 40% to 50% once the price breaks above the wedge resistance.
This bullish momentum pattern is typical

🟢 $ZEC LONG
$ZEC is around $1,550 after a huge run, so I’m not chasing the move here. Price is holding above the $1,520 area while $1,580–$1,585 is the key breakout zone.
Entry: $1,520–$1,550
TP1: $1,600
TP2: $1,680
TP3: $1,750
SL: $1,470
If ZEC breaks $1,585 with strong volume, the next leg could open quickly. If $1,470 breaks, I’d step aside and wait for a new structure.

Narrative here is as clean and natural as it gets.
$KNOTS - $STONK (50m ath)
$ETAC - $CATE (SUB 200K(!))
Survived initial pvp against a cabal etac early on. Proven community. No bundle. Everyone buying organically.
No forced narrative or vamp meme.
A pure accelerator and direct beneficial project to help push cate, just like knots did for stonk.
Paired with cate.
CATE goes up - etac goes up since its paired to cate. Etac goes up, more buybacks on gate - more flywheel and beneficial for both. Not a vamp. Not a beta. Pure accelerator.
Just as knots was for stonk and helped push it from 130m to
