⚠️ #Bitcoin down about 3% on the month with two weeks left.
Last October closed red. 🟥
Going back to 2013 there's never been back to back red Octobers, so either that streak breaks or the market has two weeks to fix it.
Rektober or Uptober?

🛢️ US$515 million that never made it into the country. The Bare Block case revealed how much a Venezuelan oil field is really worth… and how much revenue the Republic failed to collect.
Engineer Elías Matta, a former member of Congress and an expert in the energy business, put numbers to an issue that almost always remains just talk: awarding oil fields directly, without a public tender. The Bare Block, located in the Orinoco Oil Belt, is a case that can no longer be swept under the rug.
The technical details are troubling: the deal was structured through the purchase of a Panamanian company,

The major venues just force closed $6.2M of leveraged bets on a higher Ether price, all inside 30 minutes. Bets on a drop saw only $6.4K closed out, so the pain landed on $ETH buyers using borrowed money.

Justin Sun says he sold 80–90% of his ETH around $3,600–$4,000, after seeing what he described as a fragile double top. He kept his core BTC holdings, hadn’t bought back into ETH as of the interview, and shifted heavily into US stocks, expecting capital to flow there.
A sharp call on where the next wave of money might go.

What the hell
All my supplements are from Swisse,
and it turns out that some SWISSE products have excessive lead levels??

BNB — ~$716, up about 0.9% in the last 24h, holding steady after slipping around 6% this week from the $770 area.
The pullback tracked a broad market cooling after a strong stretch, though BNB again held up better than most large tokens and buyers stepped in near the $708.64 swing low.
To watch: the 37th quarterly BNB burn is due any day — the last one erased 1.62m BNB (~$932m) — and whether BNB can reclaim the 50-day average near $734 or breaks below the $708.64 floor. ‌

Ziggs enjoyers: Let me be the first to introduce you to this fun tech if you go 9/3 Fury/Chaos rune split.

$SOL is trading at 102.46 USDT, down 1.67% over 24 hours, but its 1-hour trading volume is only 0.21x. That figure looks a little weak: the price has moved, but volume has not clearly followed. The current price is already close to the 1-hour support at 101.25, while the 1-hour resistance at 104.79 still lies ahead.
I’m more inclined to view this as a tentative dip. The price has moved, but volume hasn’t followed, which suggests this move may quickly lose momentum. If volume picks up and support at 101.25 holds, this could be a good opportunity to watch.
But if the price fails to find enough s

different risk appetite with different time horizon.
you don’t have to agree with his strategy, but you can’t pretend he’s thinking about the next 15-minute candle.
what if he announces another massive purchase?
will the bears call it a top signal again, or will they finally admit this guy isn’t playing the same game as retail?

#每周来晒 #USSeptemberPPIDataRelease
#USSeptemberPPIBeatsExpectations
September PPI beat expectations by a wide margin, and the market's reaction tells a more interesting story than the number itself. The report came out at 20:30 Beijing time on Thursday, October 15. Producer prices rose 1.3% on the month against about 0.6% expected, and the annual rate hit 6.3% against a consensus of 5.5%, with energy up 10.8%. That makes the monthly gain more than double the forecast, so the answer to whether it exceeded expectations is a clear yes.
Inflationary pressure on the production side is strong, and i

#ShareWeekly #WarshIMFSpeech Warsh said nothing, and the market loved it: what Bangkok really told us about rates and BTC
Sometimes the loudest message from a central banker is the one he refuses to send. In Bangkok, Fed Chair Kevin Warsh sat down with IMF chief Kristalina Georgieva and gave traders no hint about the next rate move. The result was a relief bounce across dollars, stocks and crypto. Here is my read on the two questions everyone is asking.
Hawkish or dovish? Neither, and that is the story
Warsh stuck to price stability and refused to prejudge upcoming meetings. He also skipped fo
