Precious metals could vaporize 50-70% from their peak when the 'Russia-US-Iran peace deal' is signed.
The hottest topic in the financial market right now is that Vladimir Putin is reportedly considering paying for oil in USD (Petrodollar) again to escape the 'Yuan trap'. In exchange for lifting sanctions and allowing Russia back into the SWIFT system, along with other concessions. By hinting at a partial return to the greenback, Putin is sending a message to China: 'Pay the market price for our oil in a real currency, or I’ll go back to the Americans.' This is a 'bombshell' for silver and gold. If the 'Russia-US peace deal' is signed and Russia returns to the SWIFT system, the metals market will witness a wave of sell-offs as fear-driven trading and the bearish trend dependent on USD dissipate. At that point, gold and silver could drop from recent peaks losing 50-70%. Especially if the US negotiates further Peace with Iran in a way that favors the US Petrodollar, precious metals could lose 50-70% from their highs.

Washington and Tehran have announced a deal to end hostilities, in which the US will "immediately" lift the maritime blockade against Iran.
"The agreement with Iran is finalized. Congrats to everyone," US President Donald Trump posted on social media.
President Trump also announced the immediate lifting of the US maritime blockade against Iran, as well as reopening the Strait of Hormuz "without transit fees." "Ships around the world, rev up those engines. Let the oil flow," he wrote.
The statement from President Trump came after Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that the US and Iran had reached a peace agreement. "Both sides have agreed to immediately and permanently cease military operations on all fronts, including Lebanon," Sharif said, adding that the agreement will be signed in Switzerland on June 19.
Gold is super safe, but "buying gold at the wrong time" can be extremely risky. Let's take a look back at 1979. The whole world was in panic, and gold prices skyrocketed 4 times in just one year. Everyone thought gold was the "king." But then, history recorded a painful truth: Gold prices went sideways and dropped for the next 20 years. Those who bought at the peak that year had to wait 28 years (until 2008) to see gold prices return to the level they bought at. Gold didn't lose its value, but you lost 28 years waiting to "break even." Will history repeat itself in 2026? All speculation is just speculation! 👉 IN CONCLUSION: - Gold is like a life raft for your assets. When there's turmoil, it's incredibly useful. But when the "premium" (gold prices) gets pushed too high due to panic, you need to be extremely vigilant. ⚠️ Note: This article is based on historical events and objective analysis of market psychology; it should not be taken as investment advice and holds no responsibility for any decisions made by you.$PAXG $XAU $XAUT
After dumping 32 Bitcoin tokens and sending the crypto market into a frenzy, Strategy quickly scooped up 1,550 Bitcoin during a dip that saw prices drop below $60,000.
According to yesterday's announcement from CEO Michael Saylor, Strategy purchased 1,550 Bitcoin (BTC) for around $101 million, bringing their total holdings to 845,256 BTC. Strategy is now the largest holder of BTC in the world.
This deal came after Bitcoin's price dropped about 15% last week, trading below $60,000 before bouncing back above $62,000. The market attributes Bitcoin's decline significantly to the event where Strategy sold 32 BTC on June 1. $BTC
How to dodge market manipulation when the MM strikes
In times of market panic, it’s both a promising tale and a cautionary note. Investors should consider: When token prices dip below their intrinsic value, it could be a prime buying opportunity. Conversely, when prices soar well past their true value, it’s time to think about selling off or maintaining a cautious stance. Staying vigilant is key in a market where everything can change in a heartbeat.
Opening remarks: - In the crypto realm, look for solid projects that are undervalued and particularly those backed by reputable exchanges and major funds—these are the ones to buy and hold! - Never chase projects that are overpriced and exceed their potential. - The market’s ups and downs shouldn’t make you jittery; stay committed and wait for the MM to pump before you smartly take profits.
Turns out, whether you're launching rockets to Mars or running the richest company on the planet, when it comes to "babysitting," you still have to take your kid to meetings like everyone else! The title of babysitter for the busiest guy in the solar system (Elon Musk) makes men worldwide tip their hats in respect and feel a bit ashamed in front of him!
Maybe, a lot of people think that's just media hype. But in reality… seasoned men understand more and more... At some point, what you want to carry the most isn't wealth or power… but your own kids.
A man can conquer the whole world… but still wants to look back and see if the kid behind him is smiling happily. Perhaps… that's the common thread that connects every father (ordinary or extraordinary)!
International media is particularly focused on the payment giants accompanying President Donald Trump during his visit to China on 14-15/5/2026.
The payment giants, like Mastercard and Visa, are hoping this trip will boost their position in the heavily regulated payment market in China. Specifically, Mastercard is looking for the government to lobby for an increase in their ownership stake in the joint venture here.
Visa has yet to secure a license for processing domestic card transactions in the world's second-largest economy, unlike Mastercard and American Express. Therefore, they are aiming to enter this market with a 100% ownership stake in future joint venture licenses.
Fed keeps interest rates unchanged The cryptocurrency and precious metals market is bloodied
The Federal Reserve (Fed) kept interest rates unchanged in its second policy meeting of the year, as expected by the market.
On March 18, after a 2-day policy meeting, the Fed decided to maintain the reference interest rate at 3.5-3.75%. This move is similar to the meeting in January. Last year, the agency cut interest rates 3 times.
"Economic activity continues to grow at a steady pace," the Fed noted in its announcement on March 18. However, inflation "is accelerating" and the labor market "has remained virtually unchanged in recent months".
In the subsequent press conference, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell began with the statement: "We believe the current monetary policy stance is appropriate". After summarizing the policy decision and the latest forecasts from the Fed, he addressed the conflict in the Middle East.
"The impact of developments in the Middle East on the U.S. economy is still unclear. In the short term, rising energy prices will push overall inflation higher, but it is still too early to assess the magnitude and timing of potential impacts on the economy," he said. $PAXG $XAU $XAG
The reason precious metals show signs of being sold off!
The U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced on March 14 that it had conducted precision strikes against 90 military targets on Kharg Island, considered the "artery of oil" of Iran in the Persian Gulf.
In an interview with NBC News later that day, President Donald Trump stated that U.S. forces "had completely destroyed the island."
"We could strike a few more times just for fun. We have totally devastated the place, except for the oil pipelines, because rebuilding those pipelines will take many years," he said.
Kharg Island is located in the Persian Gulf, about 25 km off the coast of Iran, more than 480 km from the Strait of Hormuz, and serves as a processing hub for approximately 90% of Iran's crude oil exports. Therefore, Kharg is likened to Iran's "precious oil gem."
The island is 6 km long and 20 km² wide, with many storage facilities and an oil export port that remained intact during the first two weeks of the conflict, as the U.S. and Israel were cautious due to the island's role in the global oil market.
When oil prices rise, countries will sell reserve gold to balance energy cash flow! A very accurate sign that countries will not buy gold but rather are quietly selling it!

Why gold, silver, and precious metals could be sold off if the 'Russia-US-Iran peace agreement' is signed?
The most shocking story in the financial market right now is that Mr. Vladimir Putin is reportedly considering resuming oil payments in USD (Petrodollar) to escape the 'Yuan trap'. In return, sanctions would be lifted and Russia would be allowed back into the SWIFT system, along with other concessions.
By suggesting the possibility of partially returning to the greenback, Mr. Putin is sending a message to China: 'Pay the market price for our oil in a real currency, or I will go back to the Americans.' This is a 'bombshell' for silver and gold.
If the 'Russia-US peace agreement' is signed and Russia returns to the SWIFT system, the metal market will witness a wave of sell-offs as trading based on fear and the downward trend of USD dependence fades away. At that point, gold and silver could drop from recent peaks by 20 - 40%.
Especially if the US negotiates further Peace with Iran in a way that benefits the US Petrodollar, precious metals could fall from peaks by 40 - 60%.

BTC < 70,000 $ In 2026, cash is the most powerful nuclear weapon.
In a context of geopolitical economic volatility, cash is the strongest nuclear weapon.
Currently, all products are being overvalued. If a major correction occurs in 2026, investors with cash on hand will be the group with the ability to act quickly and effectively.
BTC could correct down 50-80% from its peak. (10/07/2025: 126,198 $ down < 70,000$/btc)
Gold and precious metals could correct down 50% -70% from their peak. ....
Stablecoins only exist when they can prove a stable and practically useful ecosystem; stablecoins created solely for asset sheltering or gambling will soon die or be purged by regulatory authorities and disappear by 2026-2028.
The market correction in 2026 will prove that Cash is the oxygen of life. Those with cash will be the kings of safe-haven assets in 2026; they will have the power to buy valuable assets at great prices when the financial crisis storm sweeps through.

Cryptocurrency is just a game of chance. Let the numbers speak for themselves: - $LUNC from $119 down to almost nothing - $0.00001 in just 24h. The catastrophic collapse of LUNC (Terra Luna Classic on May 7, 2022, shook the cryptocurrency world and remains one of the most tragic events in the history of cryptocurrency).
- $TRUMP after 3 weeks, from $75 down to $15 and currently priced at $7.3
- $USUAL after 9 months, from $1.6 currently priced at $0.0523
- OM after 1 night OM from $9 down to $2 and currently priced at $0.1666
- Etc... projects that evaporated 98% of their assets overnight!
Those who invested in usual were very lucky to have almost 1 year to make a decision to cut losses! Unlike Lunc, Trum, OM... investors had no chance to make a decision to cut losses - They quickly herded the sheep and took advantage!
Looking at the above indices, ace should not scream and curse the Dev of any project. Because in the world of cryptocurrency, anything can happen, you can rise to the top and fall to the bottom in an instant!
Note: Choose projects with good fundamentals and then invest in them, especially projects with contributions from exchanges, you might have opportunities that bring life-changing profits.

Cryptocurrency is a long-term game. The numbers speak for themselves: - After 8 years, $BNB is currently worth 1,000 $ - After 12 years, $XRP is only worth less than 3 $ - After 8 months, $USUAL is at 0.068 $
Eight years ago, those who invested only 100 $ in BNB now have over 1,000,000 $ This is the power of time + faith in the project, especially projects that have capital contributions from exchanges. Some projects will bring life-changing profits, while others stagnate! Which coin today will help you become a millionaire tomorrow? Note: Please research projects with good fundamentals, especially those with capital contributions from exchanges that are currently undervalued, then buy and wait!

Why do 98% of cryptocurrency investors lose money? Below are the hard-earned lessons I've learned; reading this may help you avoid being part of the 98% of investors mentioned.
The reality of investors: Most cryptocurrency traders stay up late at night, are not focused on their work during the day, and only want to check their phones to see the fluctuating green and red indicators... it haunts any trader even in their sleep. There is joy when making profits, but ultimately, most investors see their accounts dwindling. A lesson with an exorbitant tuition fee for traders.
Market reality: In the world of cryptocurrency, almost all tokens are subject to the following tactics by Market Makers (MM): - Buy in secret. - Organize public pump-and-dump schemes, FOMO... loudly to create new price peaks. - Quietly and secretly sell off and withdraw funds gradually.
The crowd 🐤 🦆 only sees the virtual reality when MMs: pump, push, green candles, FOMO... but never sees the silent plans of MMs! The market is like a chess game. MMs act quietly and secretly. The only time people see MMs in action when playing chess is to say the two words "Checkmate" - the game is over - accompanied by a catastrophic drop in the market and the panic selling of investors caught in the FOMO trap set by MMs.
An invitation: The 2% of investors in the remaining group apply the principle of "Searching for projects with strong fundamentals that are undervalued, buying the tokens and holding on steadfastly while waiting"; when MMs pump, be alert to take profits.
Wishing all traders good luck. (Note: This article is for reference only and should not be considered investment advice, and no responsibility is taken for any decisions made by anyone).
Reasons why capital is fleeing the cryptocurrency market in droves: 👉 Concerns about global economic inflation, along with the escalation of political instability in several countries, have led organizations and individuals to withdraw money from high-risk investment channels, with the cryptocurrency sector being severely affected; capital has been fleeing in massive amounts over the past 24 hours! 👉 MM is taking profits.
A note: In times of market panic, it serves both as a promising story and a warning. Investors should consider the intrinsic strength of the product: When the product price falls below its intrinsic value, this could be a buying opportunity. And when the price far exceeds its true value, that's when one should consider selling or maintaining a cautious stance. It's important to stay cautious in a market where everything can change rapidly.
Wishing everyone wise decisions and good luck. (Note: The information in this article is purely personal opinion and should not be considered investment advice. We do not take any responsibility related to your decisions.)
98% of cryptocurrency investors lose, are you in the remaining 2%? The horrifying truth in the cryptocurrency world is that almost all tokens are subjected to this tactic by MM: MM - The hidden player, they: 👉 Buy in secret. 👉 Organize pump, push, fomo ... loudly in public to drive prices up to create new peaks. 👉 Quietly and secretly sell off to withdraw money gradually.
🐤 🦆🐣 The crowd only sees the virtual reality when MM: pumps, pushes, green candles, fomo..., and never sees the vision or the quiet plan of MM!
💰 💲💰 The market is like a chess game. MM acts quietly and secretly. The only time people see MM act while playing chess is to say the two words "Checkmate" - The game is over - See you next season and MM still uses the old tactics!

Summary of the Dev's operational process at any token for the community to understand vaguely and then decide the fate of their assets as follows:
- Step 1: List on the exchange, pump to the peak. - Step 2: Reversal, decrease by 70% - 200%... - Step 3: Pump after the price drop and soar 150%-1000%... - Step 4: Signal sufficient accumulation - Go sideways (During this phase, many may confuse it as accumulation and that it will soar again). - Step 5: Dump from the peak gradually back to near the initial value when listed on the exchange! (End of the life cycle process of a token, goodbye and see you again in the next cycle when the Dev opens the stage for the continuation).
Conclusion about the general model of any token: list on the exchange, strong price increase, strong price decrease, accumulation, extremely strong soar, sideways and extremely strong decrease, goodbye and see you again next season.
If lucky enough to buy the token in step 2 and sell in step 3, then you only need to win the lottery 100$ when it soars, your assets will increase by 100 times!
Wishing the cryptocurrency community much luck. (Note: This article is not to be considered as investment advice and does not bear any responsibility related to your decisions).
Reasons for the capital flight from the cryptocurrency market: "Donald Trump officially imposes a 20% tax on all U.S. trade partners "
U.S. President Donald Trump has declared April 2, 2025, as Liberation Day when the U.S. will impose reciprocal taxes on all of its trade partners. Specific details about the tax rates will be announced by President Trump on the afternoon of April 2 (U.S. time).
According to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, the U.S. reciprocal tax rates will take effect immediately after being announced by President Trump. The U.S. sees April 2, 2025, as one of the most significant days in modern American history. The U.S. is one of the most open economies in the world and has the best consumer base while many countries are closing their doors to U.S. exports.
Concerns about global economic inflation have led organizations and individuals to withdraw money en masse from venture investment channels, with the cryptocurrency sector facing tremendous impacts, and capital is fleeing rapidly in the past 24 hours! Wishing everyone good luck.
Red candles are sweeping the market devastatingly! At this stage, more than 98% of small and medium investors have run out of financial capacity to buy additional products! This could be what the market makers desire!
In a panic market context, it will be both a promising story and a warning. Investors should consider: When the product price drops below its intrinsic value, this could be a buying opportunity. And when the price far exceeds its real value, that is the time to consider selling or maintaining a cautious stance. It is important to stay cautious in a market where everything can change quickly.
Wishing everyone wise decisions and good luck. (Note: This article should not be considered investment advice and does not take responsibility for any decisions related to your choices.)
