Longs got wiped out again, and this time there wasn’t even a convincing bearish catalyst to point to: according to Coinglass data, over the past 24 hours, total liquidations across the entire network reached $119 million, including $82.01 million in long positions, nearly 70% of the total, while shorts accounted for only $36.71 million. $ETH was the hardest hit, with long positions liquidated for $22.41 million; $BTC also saw $13.24 million in long liquidations. The largest single liquidation was a $7 million ETH long on Binance, which got taken out in one sweep. The market didn’t crash; prices only pulled back slightly, but those with heavy leverage fell first—right now, this market is not killing direction, it’s killing leverage. #爆仓 #leverage

Korean retail traders have taught the entire market a lesson again: $ORDER has gone absolutely wild on Upbit’s KRW market, briefly surging to 124 won intraday, with its reported daily gain peaking at 172%. Its 24-hour trading volume exploded from $25 million to $386 million—not driven by institutions, but by Korean retail traders piling in with real money. But the other half of the story is even more dramatic: after the spike, it gave back nearly 80% of its gains and now sits around $0.044–$0.049. CoinStats’ figure for the day is also down to +62.66% (about $0.05682). Listing FOMO always works like this: early buyers take the profits, latecomers get left holding the bag. The only difference is the minute you get in. #Upbit #Orderly

The ETF weekly report is out, and the numbers look scary—but the real story is the complete opposite: For the week of October 19–23, $BTC spot ETFs saw $443 million in outflows. $ETH had it even worse: five straight days of outflows, with no positive day since September 28, and cumulative net inflows shrinking from $13.95 billion to $13.26 billion. The worst single day was October 22, when $BTC ETFs saw $635.5 million flow out in one day—the biggest outflow since June. But Bitwise CIO Hougan set the record straight on CNBC: ETF investors weren’t behind the selling. It was OGs who’d held for 15 years trimming their positions, while financial advisors were quietly buying the dip. In the same product, fast money is running while long-term money is buying. Now, about 40% of $BTC spot ETF holders need a 50% rally just to break even, and gold has topped $5,000. Once the panic selling runs its course, the coins can change hands. #ETF #Bitcoin

$DODO This price action makes no sense: while the broader market moves sideways, it’s surged more than 11% in 24 hours, with a 10% spike in just one hour, climbing from 0.022 all the way to 0.0276. Its intraday high was 0.0278. And the craziest part? This isn’t just a one-day pump—it’s up 29% in 7 days and 48% in 30 days, breaking out on heavy volume, with 24-hour trading volume hitting $7.3 million. The price is now holding above the 0.025 support, and 0.028 is the last barrier overhead. Get above that, and another rally could be underway. Those who didn’t get in yesterday are kicking themselves again today. With coins moving against the trend, the worst thing you can do is hesitate. #DODO #AltcoinSeason

Bitwise's October research estimated Bitcoin's fair value at $197,000. With the current price hovering around $80,000, the model suggests there's still roughly 2.5x upside, driven by expanding global liquidity and a weakening U.S. dollar. But models are just models: BTC just closed at $80,019, down 0.8% on the day, while 29 of the top 50 coins were falling. Those who trust the model are focused on the direction; those watching the charts are focused on the price level. Both can be right—but don't mistake a model price for money in the bank. #Bitcoin #Bitwise

$MORPHO Today, it’s the biggest loser in the top 100: down about 5% in 24 hours, trading around $2.08, down more than 10% over 7 days and nearly a quarter over the past month. Morpho is a decentralized lending protocol on Ethereum, and it was only listed on Binance spot last October. Given this decline, funds are clearly flowing out of the lending sector. When the market is moving sideways, the biggest losers tell you the most—not because this coin is weak on its own, but because the entire DeFi sector is bleeding. #Morpho #DeFi

The most important day of the week is almost here: the Fed’s October 27–28 policy meeting. Of the 100 economists surveyed by Reuters from October 16–20, 94 are betting the Fed will hold steady this time, keeping rates at 3.75%–4.00%. But all 100 expect a rate hike in December—meaning October is just a breather, and the real test comes at year-end. The Fed unanimously raised rates by 25 basis points in September, the 10-year Treasury yield is still hovering around 5.10%, and $BTC is around $80,000 while $ETH 2326 is trading sideways near $749,293,802. The market is already waiting for the other shoe to drop. Volatility is sure to pick up around the announcement, so don’t make impulsive trades in the first few minutes after the news breaks. #美联储 #RateDecision

While the broader market was falling, this one quietly surged 35% all by itself! $CAP shot straight to the top of CoinPaprika’s 24-hour gainers list today, up +34.8% in 24 hours. Its price climbed from $0.0787 to $0.1119, with more than $260 million in 24-hour trading volume. If you were watching it hover around $0.08 at this time yesterday, you might have opened your eyes today to find your account up by over 30%—the most frustrating thing about a move like this isn’t missing out; it’s having seen it and scrolled right past. With volatility this high, think carefully about how much of a pullback you can stomach before chasing the price. Don’t get carried away. #CAP #Top Gainers

The weekend wrapped up with Bitcoin holding above $80,000: It closed at around $80,019 at 00:00 UTC on October 25, with an intraday range of $79,812–$80,904, down 0.8%. Ethereum closed at $2,326, down 1.1%; BNB was essentially flat at $737.53, while SOL stood at $101.19 and XRP at $1.29. Total market capitalization was around $2.64 trillion, down 0.9%, with Bitcoin dominance at 60.6%. Among the top 50 coins, 14 rose and 29 fell; the median decline was 0.5%. The market hardly looked strong, but on-chain signals were intriguing: whale tracking showed about $623.8 million in exchange inflows, versus a hefty $1.9 billion in outflows—a net outflow, with coins moving to custodial wallets. One transfer alone moved nearly $1 billion in USDT from Binance to an unlabeled wallet. Prices are moving sideways as coins leave exchanges; ahead of the Federal Reserve decision on October 28, the market is waiting for a clear direction. $BTC $ETH #比特币 #Federal Reserve

While the broader market moved sideways, oracle veteran $PYTH quietly turned green: its current price is around $0.075, up about 5% to 7% over 24 hours (a Binance-linked snapshot shows around $0.075 and a 5.9% gain, while ChangeHero shows around $0.0756 and a 7.5% gain). Its market cap is about $560 million, with 24-hour trading volume of around $23 million to $24 million. What’s really worth watching isn’t those percentage gains, but the fundamentals: on October 8, Pyth DAO passed OP-PIP-136, the “100% rule,” directing all product revenue it receives toward market buybacks of PYTH. Third-quarter annualized revenue was $11.49 million, up a whopping 86.5% quarter over quarter, with 276 paying accounts. The DAO gets about 60% of the revenue, with a monthly buyback budget of around $574,500, and reserves now stand at about 42 million tokens. But don’t get carried away: that amount is small relative to trading volume. Support this week is around $0.0764, and the current price is sitting just below it, while resistance is at $0.0881. Is this an oversold bounce, or is the buyback thesis starting to get priced in? Just watch whether it can reclaim $0.0764. #预言机 #Pyth

Do you understand what Strategy is doing? In the week of October 12–18, it spent just $22.1 million to buy 267 $BTC at an average price of $82,900, bringing its holdings to 848,517 coins at a total cost of $64 billion. Yet in the same week, it spent $193.1 million buying back STRC preferred stock—nearly nine times as much as it spent on Bitcoin. The board directly raised the preferred stock buyback cap from $2 billion to $3 billion, with $1.16 billion of capacity still remaining. Put simply, dividends and buybacks on the preferred stock are draining cash from the treasury company, and the pace of Bitcoin purchases has visibly slowed. Shareholders are also due to vote on October 28 on whether STRC should switch to daily dividends. In this Bitcoin treasury saga, the lead character is shifting from “buy, buy, buy” to “make sure the creditors are taken care of first.” #Strategy #Bitcoin

This rally is seriously strong: from $55 in September, it surged all the way to $373—nearly 7x. Plenty of people got off midway and are kicking themselves now. Then came a brutal half-way pullback, dropping to around $177, right on the 0.618 golden ratio level, where buyers stepped in and caught it. Today it rebounded to around $190, up nearly 9% in 24 hours, with a market cap of $2.8 billion and 24-hour trading volume of $200 million. The 50-day moving average at $162 is providing support below. As long as it holds above this demand zone, the September breakout structure remains intact; the first target to the upside is $214, followed by $252. While others panic, it’s quietly reclaiming lost ground. #QNT #cryptocurrency

Ethereum has chosen to back down this time—not in a bad way, but wisely. The Glamsterdam upgrade, originally set to activate on the Hoodi testnet on October 26, was called off by the development team at the 248th All Core Developers meeting. The reason: the EIP-8037 gas repricing change could break older contracts already deployed on mainnet. Security firm ChainSecurity has identified 13 real-world cases of affected contracts. The plan to raise Hoodi’s gas limit to 200 million has also been scrapped, and a new activation date has yet to be set. Glamsterdam ran successfully on Sepolia on October 6, but the mainnet timeline remains uncertain. ETH is currently trading around $2,320, while the market awaits the Federal Reserve meeting on October 27–28. In a Reuters poll, 94 of 100 economists expected rates to remain unchanged. Better to upgrade slowly than get it wrong—a sentiment that feels especially apt for Ethereum today. $ETH #以太坊 #Glamsterdam

AAVE has had a really rough week: it hit a weekly high of $158.75, then steadily slid to around $136, down about 13.8% from the high. The weekly low of $135.06 is right below us. What stings even more is the on-chain activity: an institution transferred 156,690 AAVE worth about $22.86 million in one go, with 62,000 tokens sent straight to an exchange—clearly preparing to sell. Even DeFi’s old guard couldn’t withstand this week’s selling pressure. If the $140 level doesn’t hold, $135 is the first stop, followed by the $130 area. To turn the downtrend around, AAVE first needs to reclaim $155. Until then, don’t rush to buy the dip—trying to catch a falling knife is the easiest way to get hurt. $AAVE #DeFi #AAVE

South Korea’s crypto tax is set to be delayed again: On October 25, the presidential office said it supported postponement. The 22% tax on virtual assets, originally scheduled to take effect on January 1, 2027, could be pushed back to 2029 under a ruling-party bill. A final decision will be made during the November tax-law review. Until an amendment is passed by the National Assembly, January 1, 2027 remains the tax’s legal start date. The tax would apply at a combined rate of 22% to annual gains exceeding 2.5 million won. The reasons for delaying it are practical: authorities cannot obtain trading data from overseas exchanges, and the U.S. will not join the OECD’s CARF information-sharing system until 2029. That would leave users of domestic exchanges facing scrutiny first, raising fairness concerns. The rules for taxing staking, airdrops, DeFi, and cross-border wallets also have yet to be worked out. This would be the fourth possible delay for the tax, which was first due to take effect in 2022. Young people commonly trade crypto on overseas platforms, so if the tax cannot be implemented, there is no need to rush into planning for 2027—but don’t assume it has been canceled either: without a legal amendment, nothing changes. #韩国 #CryptoTax

65 of the 90 large-cap coins were falling, but $ZRO was one of the few leading gainers in the day’s snapshot: On October 25, it was around $1.73, up about 1.94% over 24 hours. Quotes from various platforms later hovered near $1.73, with a market cap of about $691 million and 24-hour trading volume of about $44 million. That day, BTC was around $80,759, down 0.28%, and ETH was around $2,361, down 0.93%. Even AKE plunged 21.93% to $0.0297. ZRO wasn’t just following the broader market—it held up and closed higher amid a widespread slump. A week ago, it was around $1.84; a month ago, just $1.52. If it fails to hold $1.70, watch for $1.60; only a firm hold above $1.80 would open up more room to rise. In the cross-chain sector, few coins managed to close higher in a falling market, and ZRO was one of them today. Not investment advice. #Cross-chain

After reviewing the week, there’s really only one way to put it: the declines were slow, but they came every day. Four of the top five coins closed lower this week; only BNB managed a modest gain of 2.05%, yet it’s still down 14.56% year to date. BTC fell 2.27% this week to around $80,217, and is down 8.34% year to date; ETH fared worse, dropping 3.95% to around $2,324, and is down 21.67% year to date; SOL fell 3.31% to around $100.62, and is down 19.17% year to date. XRP held up relatively well this week, slipping just 0.61% to around $1.29, but it’s already down 29.86% year to date—the steepest drop among the top five. There wasn’t a single crash, but every bounce was sold off. This kind of slow grind lower is more exhausting than a sharp sell-off. With the Fed’s decision coming up on October 28, don’t rush to buy the dip just yet. $BTC #WeeklyReview

DUSK pulled off a textbook intraday turnaround: it was still among the 200 biggest losers in the morning, but by afternoon, market snapshots showed gains of +2.5% to +4%. It’s currently around $0.11, with a market cap of roughly $69 million. Don’t be fooled by today’s gains—it’s still down 6% to 8% over the past 7 days, though it’s up about 20% over the past month and has surged 127% since the start of the year, more than doubling. The harsh reality is that it’s still down around 90% from its all-time high of $1.15 in December 2021. At these levels, there are just as many dip-buyers as there are people hoping to break even, and the volatility makes it unsuitable for a large, directional bet. $DUSK #Privacy sector

On-chain activity is much livelier than on CEXs today: TokenPost/GeckoTerminal’s daily DEX report puts 24-hour DEX trading volume across the market at about $6.3 billion, down 17.9% from the previous period but up 11.35% from a week ago. The gainers’ list is so absurd it looks Photoshopped: BIBI surged 53,175% in a day, dope wif sword rose 51,259%, and iPhone Duo gained 46,752%. Meanwhile, Universal High Income, the hottest pair by trading volume, plunged 99.98% in a day and still ranked first among trending pairs. The top token by trading volume was Niannian (年年), at $234.6 million, with just over $1 million in liquidity and 206x turnover—take figures like these with a grain of salt; don’t put real money into it. DEX Screener reports about $5.65 billion in 24-hour volume on a comparable basis, in the same ballpark. #DEX #On-chainData

While the broader market moved sideways, $ENA charted its own course: Binance spot briefly surged 4.46% in an hour to $0.2037, with 24-hour gains of around 9.5%–10.2%. It’s now trading near $0.206, with a market cap of about $2.7 billion, ranking 40th. The catalyst is clear: on October 23, USDe launched natively on OKX’s X Layer, with Aave v3 integrated at launch. OKX Wallet users can now access USDe directly on-chain for the first time, while one-click looping is still in the works. In that same hour, $120,000 in short positions were liquidated, compared with zero in longs—the shorts paid the price first. It’s up around 11%–14% over seven days, but still down about 20%–24% over 30 days. Is this the start of a reversal or just an oversold bounce? First, watch whether it can hold above $0.2105. #Ethena #USDe
