🇦🇹 A statue of Satoshi Nakamoto was unveiled in Vienna…
This stainless steel sculpture is the work of Italian artist Valentina Picozzi.
Installed beside a lake in the Viertel Zwei district, it is part of the global “21 Nodes” project, which plans to install 21 statues of Satoshi around the world.

Recently, it’s peak breakout season for small-cap altcoins

Can I get a GM back

Complex market conditions call for sticking to your own judgment. Warsh’s Bangkok remarks; inflation surges.
Warsh’s remarks were broadly neutral. He neither clearly signaled an October rate hike nor struck a dovish tone, only emphasizing that some policy easing was reversed in September. He also said not to believe claims about what actions might be taken at meetings during the remainder of 2026. The market is staying on the sidelines for now.
The obvious bearish factors behind this decline include a strengthening yuan index, persistently rising oil prices, renewed high-inflation pressures, a

I was already about to close Crash, but the last round pulled me back to +230 U
Such an exhilarating experience is on @Roobet:

Candlestick Pattern:
Prices have been trending downward with fluctuations over the past few days, particularly between October 12 and October 16, forming clear highs and lows.
After the close on October 15, a slight rebound occurred, but it failed to break above the previous high, indicating considerable selling pressure in the market.
Technical Indicators:
The MACD indicator shows divergence between the MACD and DEA lines, with values in negative territory, suggesting bearish sentiment remains strong in the short term.
The RSI is currently 49.20, approaching neutral territory and hovering nea

Bets against Cosmos carry the highest fee on our funding board, with $ATOM funding at -0.02%, meaning shorts are paying longs to keep their positions open. Open bets on the coin still grew 1.72% over the 24 hours to Oct 16.

Guys, I’m preparing to open a large short position here: $TIA .
Take profit: $0.596 Stop loss: $0.696 Look at the candle near the top. Price broke sharply above the range, with the wick pushing even higher and sweeping up a lot of shorts there. At first glance, it looked like a breakout, but to me, this doesn’t look like a healthy breakout at all. The move failed to hold. Now, many late buyers have entered after seeing that rally, and their liquidity is concentrated lower, around $0.59–$0.60. That’s exactly what I’m watching. The uptrend in $TIA has punished the shorts. Now I think the market

FTR is at the bottom—rush to buy the dip! It's about to pump hard!!!

Buy the dip fast, it's about to take off 🛫

Many people see the Fear and Greed Index at 63 and immediately cry “greed is peaking,” then turn around and short strong coins—that’s treating a sentiment indicator as a timing switch. Greed can get even greedier; what really matters is where capital is rotating.

$XAUUSD I posted the day before yesterday about buying at the lows. Wait for 4250 and manage your position, guys. Holding for the long term is far more profitable than watching the charts and scalping every day

Avalanche's DEX volume rose 43.29% in the past 30 days to $4.16B, from $2.90B in the 30 days before. Pharaoh's V3 and DLMM pools handled $3.11B of it.

The Fed’s Final Signals Could Move Bitcoin, the Dollar and U.S. Stocks
Today’s focus is on the Federal Reserve’s message from Bangkok, with markets searching for clues ahead of the October 27–28 FOMC meeting.

When expectations are this divided, even a carefully worded statement can trigger sharp moves across financial markets.
The inflation picture has made the decision m
