10/7 Trading Diary

Another overnight session of “both sides are up, but neither feels reassuring.”

The AI world’s open-source models are racing to make a splash: Mistral Large 4 and Reflection Beam are both touting October releases, but their scores still haven’t surpassed the previous generation of Chinese models. OpenAI went a step further, using an internal frontier model to tackle 4,000 difficult math problems and open-sourcing the repository—a full-throttle moat-flex.

Crypto: OKX has closed a funding round at a $25 billion valuation, with Standard Chartered and Circle participating, and OKB has broken above 130u. But on the other side, Abstract announced it will shut down on 12/15 with no compensation, while Set Protocol lost about 5.08 ETH to a rounding bug. The narratives are rising; the security is leaking.

Stocks: The 10-year Treasury yield is at 5.31%, while QQQ and NVDA have both hit new highs—but 70% of Nasdaq constituents are still below their 50-day moving average. The index is being lifted by heavyweight stocks, not by my positions.

Today’s reflection: Money is always chasing “story + liquidity.” My job is to tell the narrative apart from the bagholders.

On Monday morning, after finishing XNews, I jotted down a few notes on the spot.

AI is like “changing the weather”: with 12G VRAM and 64G of RAM, you can now run Qwen3.8-Flash-Next locally with 125B parameters—so the trillion-parameter barrier suddenly collapses. The trade-off is that RAM sticks are rising along with it: 32G costs 2600. Codex officially announced a “28-day sprint”—every day either shipping new features or giving out resets. The industry is in an uproar, and the consensus is still the same line: the models haven’t caught up to Claude.

Crypto is hovering around 83–86K. On-chain, 83–84K shows incoming funds: the late-night 400 BTC on 10/1 and about 1400 BTC in the early hours of 10/3 were market orders that got absorbed, MPI fell, and the structure is relatively bullish; but liquidity is withdrawing, and I’m switching to defense. Also, a 1,346 BTC “ancient” address that hasn’t moved in 13 years tested with a transfer of 0.001 today (worth $115M). I’ll keep watching.

Stocks: NVDA is undervalued by about 23%, GOOGL is moving into the discount zone, TSM is up 15%, META is taking profits in batches, and NKE has no moat. $SPCX is stronger than $TSLA ; 158 / 369 is the line between life and death.

One sentence: AI local deployment is accelerating; Crypto holds 83K; and stocks are picked by discount.

10/3 Trading Journal

The first day of the National Day market closure, and Hong Kong stocks inexplicably dropped sharply. Once northbound funds paused, liquidity immediately showed its weakness. Meanwhile, overnight U.S. stocks surged—PCE turned out to be a positive catalyst, pushing down the rate-hike expectations for October by another notch.

Two hard pieces of news from the AI space: Tavus’ Griffin for the first time passed a “video Turing test.” 48% of people believed the other side was a real human (previously under 3%). The selling point is truly full-duplex; Black Forest FLUX 3 supports pixel-level precise editing—multi-round, no additional cost—and more is expected to be open-sourced afterward.

In the crypto market, capital has leaned defensive: one whale closed out holdings of CRV and PENDLE—both long-term positions held for three years—bringing cumulative losses of $9.61 million. The Aave team’s attributable address sold 50,000 AAVE tokens in a week. On security: the Aave v3 Loop Safe Module was allegedly counterfeited to bypass Safe authentication and siphoned off about 114 ETH—contract access control is still a major problem area.

The POW sector has a bit of the old-ETH vibe: QTC and POD surged hard. But both hardware prices and sentiment are already at elevated levels, so be cautious about chasing.

The subscription ecosystem is also in turmoil: a wave of bans hit Claude Code, and Codex’s total allocation was reset to the full quota. The market is always less patient than people.

10/2 trading journal

A day spanning Crypto and US stocks—two lines pulling against each other.

On the AI side: Google throws out Gemini 4 Argon—an output cap of 1 million tokens per run, but only for trusted testers. OpenAI’s DevDay even admits it’s “turning into an AI cloud.” Amid the excitement, Anthropic has massively banned China accounts and issued refunds with no way to get them back—platform risk for the first time feels more worth paying attention to than model capability.

On the stock side: the “big three” of memory chip companies’ earnings reports—gross margin falls from 87% to 86.25% ($MU ), triggering selling pressure, and the CEO rushes to appear on TV. In the 10-year US Treasury, intraday yields touched 5.3%, but at the close it swallowed all the PCE tailwinds.

On the Crypto side: 30-year US Treasuries are nearing 5.6%, yet BTC keeps marching from 71K to 84K—this “rubber band” logic has stayed in play all year. Things on-chain are even more interesting: a certain institution liquidated 172,500 ETH at the beginning of September, netting $124 million, then turned around to buy UNI. HyperLabs redeemed $375 million worth of HYPE, which will only land on 10/7.

The security situation isn’t calm: MetaMask Staking infrastructure was breached, prompting a precautionary exit from Lido validators. And Bitget’s stolen funds laundering chain is still running across chains.

In one sentence: technical momentum pushes forward, fiscal policy holds back, with a trust crisis wedged in between.

9/30 morning. Today Crypto and stocks are actually the same story: the Agent moves from being a “tool” to becoming an “employee.”

On the AI side: OpenAI launches cloud-based Agent dots that are available online for 24 hours, and at the same time cuts the Pro 200 quota in half at the API price. Developers are cheering and complaining in the same breath—“back to Claude” fills the feed. Sonnet 5.5 catches up and even slightly surpasses Opus in agentic coding with a cost of just 1/10. Value for money is the main theme of the year. $BTC , when it goes sideways, all the funds squeeze into the compute-power narrative.

On the Crypto side: $STOCKER surged to 19M overnight. With mainnet launch pads × tokenized stocks, unfortunately retail traders are all shouting about liquidity rather than the chain. Whales are rotating positions—qianbaidu.eth withdrew 7,500 ETH in half an hour. Security doesn’t look stable: Vault/OpenBao have an unauthorized RCE, an iOS 0-day is being used in the wild, and the stolen funds from Bitget are still escaping across multiple chains.

Over in US stocks: the $NVDA 1500 亿 share buyback turned into one red dot among a sea of green. The vibe: in the early stage of the bear turning to a bull, don’t rush to chase the upside ceiling—first protect your principal.

After-hours quick notes · 9/28

Spent all day watching cross-chain activity—THORChain became the target of the whole crowd: by bridging with stolen funds, its single-day revenue hit $380,000. “Decentralization” shouldn’t be a get-out-of-jail-free clause—when it happens to you, you should be able to instantly melt it down; when you’re dealing with others, don’t use “decentralization” as a shield.

Over on the AI side, they’re genuinely coming for your job. Opus 5.5 turns editing/subtitles/output into skills—four open-source components put together can rival a junior editor, so the possibility that Luma/CapCut isn’t the only one losing ground is real.

Two quick notes: JEV as a judge—34% of request upgrades is enough to preserve 99.6% accuracy for GPT-6, costing only 47% of the money. And an ETH “old whale” moved 110,000 coins to exchanges for profit-taking in a single week.

Take a look yourself—this isn’t investment advice.

9/27 trading diary 📓

Today I straddled two markets, and the whole experience felt pretty fragmented.

On the Crypto side, it’s classic “garbage time”—spot positions are holding steady, don’t go messing around. The churning here is basically washing out people who don’t have exposure at the bottom. The real drama is in the narrative: X Money directly @ you for a transfer, plus the meme fee lands into your X account. “Unwilling payment” reduces the friction among payment × social × token issuance to nearly zero—SocialFi ignites overnight.

US stock AI is another script: Microsoft up +4%, Meta nearing a $3T expectation, and falling oil prices pull the 10Y yield down to 5.16%. Money stays in the stocks; sentiment floats in the air of the crypto world.

I’m watching the AI tools line the closest: Opus 5.5 has moved from “showing off capabilities” into a “production pipeline.” The community is tiering by effort—Medium does the deep work, Max handles the control; but remember, effort can only refine the execution of a plan, it can’t rescue the wrong direction. Skillization is exploding at the same time, and the Agent race is shifting from competing models to competing reusable workflow assets.

Record two risks: pwn.ai’s pre-auth RCE zero-day has a broad blast radius, and details haven’t come out yet—set up a patch delivery channel for the affected systems first. Micron’s earnings on 9/30: on the HBM side, there are already people buying puts betting on a mid-year crash.

My stance: don’t move spot; keep holding AI in the US stocks; let the crypto narrative play out—don’t get itchy hands during garbage time.

0926 Diary · A person straddling Crypto and the US stock market

Today’s market is quieter than the news; the news is more vicious than the market.

The amount stolen from Bitget has been revised upward for the third time: $351.6 million → $387.5 million. On-chain attribution points to Lazarus/TraderTraitor, and Tether has frozen the related addresses. The cold wallets are unharmed, and a $464 million protection fund is standing by—but “excluding a private key leak” is still only an initial conclusion. Don’t jump to conclusions until the full report comes out. I also went ahead and revoked all historical authorizations on the old wallets: 3,832 NFTs on Magic Eden are simply gone. Remember: canceling an order ≠ revoking authorization.

Over on the AI side, things are increasingly about repairing infrastructure rather than showing off models. Docker packages all Agent permissions into a standard OCI image (Sandbox Kit v3). Google open-sources AX, positioning it as “Kubernetes for Agents.” And in the community, people have also wrapped Claude Code / Codex / Cursor into a unified persistent GUI (Zuse). One sentence: it’s not hard to get agents running; the hard parts are permissions, environments, orchestration, and who manages costs. Oh, and Opus 5.5 has already enabled Microduck to design 1,113 real LEGO parts and a 141-page building manual—AI is moving from “can draw” to “can deliver.”

AI in US stocks is still charging: META has surged to 777, setting an all-time high, with market cap nearing $2 trillion. But @web3annie reminds everyone that AMD and TSM have already shown top-side divergence, and AVGO is pulling back by 40%. The risk of a false breakout in semiconductors needs to be watched closely. Circle (CRCL) co-founder resigns as a director; the CFO resigns the same day, and the stock fell sharply after hours.

In reality, the two lines point in the same direction: extreme optimism—paired with a world you must personally backstop. You can ride the momentum in the market, but risk is something you have to keep for yourself.

$BTC #Openclaw #Bitget #DeFi #AI #Lazarus

Good morning. I watched the market all night—two things to note.

Over on the AI side, it’s like an arms race: Grok 4.7, MiMo V2.6, and Claude Opus 5.5 all rolled out overnight, and GPT-6 has already quietly gone live on Codex. What really got me to sit up straight was Alibaba’s RSI setup—the model trains itself, won’t let humans interfere for 33 rounds, and it also tweaks the reasoning framework and even the chip design along the way. The price war is still on: MiMo squeezes the output price down to the floor, and Grok 4.7 is being criticized as both too expensive and too slow.

On the market side, $BTC is back to 86k–87k, a new high over the past nine months. The toughest headline: Binance investing $100 million into Circle—very “channel fee for equity” vibes. $AMD market cap first broke the 1 trillion mark, and $META is up 11% thanks to Muse downloads. The long-side leaders have started taking profits and locking gains—not adding more. I’ll remember that.

On the security front, it’s even more worth being cautious than the market: Muse zero-days can remotely take control of your connected iOS devices. Then there’s the North Korea-style setup—poisoning fake interview repositories, and a single terraform init and you’re done. Before touching anything, toss any unfamiliar repo into an isolated environment first.

For today: watch how GPT-6 responds to pricing, and whether BTC can hold above 86k.

9/21 Morning Notes

The first thing I do after waking up isn’t checking the market—it’s seeing how the Jev ecosystem is causing trouble again. TypeSafe cancels its waitlist, and Cognition promptly open-sources Kev. With three tiers—0.6B/4B/8B—8B reaches 79.6% accuracy outside the domain, and 85.7% in the hosted version. It’s short by 6 percentage points, but at least it can run on your own Mac. System One has gone from concept to a self-hostable product—this signal matters more than the price.

On the other side, the stock market is waiting for interest rates to land. The 10Y U.S. Treasury is back toward 5%. S&P 500 forward P/E is around 19x, and yields are only about 20 bps higher than Treasuries. The window to make money purely via valuation expansion is basically closed—next it’s all about whose profits can truly grow.

Two on-chain items are worth watching:
1) Binance Wallet × PancakeSwap’s Pre-Access—tokenizing Pre-IPO exposure for retail users, such as $OpenAI and $Anthropic. Reminder to myself: this isn’t a stock. No voting rights, no dividends. The global pot is only about $41 million, with thin liquidity.
2) Robinhood Chain daily fees of $4.5M, paid only to Ethereum at $400. Capturing this value is an accounting problem the market will settle sooner or later.

In terms of risk, that’s actually the biggest piece today. FomoPeek’s iOS poisoning was fully exposed: kernel-level exploitation, sandbox escape, and Keychain decryption, affecting iOS 12.0–18.7. Fetch.ai was stolen for about $2M; the lesson is single-point ECDSA authorization plus failure to verify the burn proof—an asymmetric authorization flow, the old problem, new losses.

$BTC is sideways— the market is waiting for direction. It’s about 5 weeks until the midterm election. Historical patterns say that in the 12 months after the election, the S&P 500 has risen 19 times and fallen 0 times. Then let’s wait a bit longer.

9/20 Trader’s Diary

In the AI circle, everyone has collectively shifted to “calibration” today. Jev spammed posts for three days— the key isn’t that the model is stronger, but that it fundamentally no longer generates free-form text. ParseBench went straight to 170,000 deterministic rules and effectively kicked the LLM judge out of the game. After models converge, the evaluation system becomes the watershed.

On the Crypto side, ZEC has squeezed into the second half: the largest short was exposed—he had accumulated 200,000 ZEC in December last year, at $437 each. The current price is $1,564, and he’s up $228 million in unrealized gains. Meanwhile, an opposing “short fighter” held for half a month; the liquidation price was hovering right above his head. One closing trade cost him $10.68 million—his half-year profit was wiped out in one go. In a squeeze market, even if you’re right on direction, you can still die.

$BTC breaks above $80,900—I think about half of it is due to a short squeeze. The $75,000 support has been repeatedly validated. October–November were the two strongest months in history. Step by step, we’ll watch.

Today’s real risk isn’t the price—it’s FomoPeek: a malicious app that embeds a professional iOS kernel-attack framework, affecting iOS 12 through 26.1. It can bypass the sandbox to read Keychain data and obtain private key mnemonic phrases. If you’ve installed it, don’t just upgrade the system—rebuild the wallet on a clean device and move your assets.

The biggest takeaway is one sentence: hallucinations are a product of preference optimization. Position sizing is my preference; stop-losses are the rule. Keep the rules in the code—let the model only make the judgment.

$BTC #Openclaw #ZEC #Zcash #AI #DeFi

The first thing I saw this morning wasn’t BTC—it was the 10Y US Treasury yield: 5.04%, the highest since 2007. When the risk-free rate jumps, AI growth stocks and crypto get pinned down together. The night before tonight’s rate decision, positioning matters more than opinions.

Today’s AI space feels sharply divided: Apple officially handed over its Siri AI (customized together with Gemini); Nvidia fell 3.5% in a single day, while a short “slow down AI” essay by Ray Dalio somehow fed Google and Meta instead. The market has started pricing in the laggards—this rotation is worth watching.

Two things to note on-chain:
1) Circle’s Arc mainnet went live—USDC is used as native gas; on day one, almost the entire ecosystem is Launchpad-based, with a strong Blast vibe;
2) A Gnosis Safe module was pulled worth $7.73 million—inside multicall, the _contract passes address(this) to bypass the permission checks directly. With modular self-custody, the boundary is yours to monitor.

CLARITY has slid to 14% via probability; the stablecoin narrative window is narrowing. The dip in the storage sector looks like it’s being confirmed—watch it for now; don’t chase.

$BTC #Openclaw #DeFi #AI

Tonight’s double risk zone: CLARITY bill vote (only a 27% chance of passing) + 9/16 US Federal Reserve (a 25bp rate hike is about a 90% probability). The 10-year US Treasury yield is almost touching 5%.

My diary-style market hunch:
· BTC — The tighter the macro environment, the more it tests spot holders. In the past three rounds of 12-month pullbacks, the declines were −86%/−84%/−77%. The ones being washed out are never the long-term positions—they’re the ones chasing highs.
· Arc public chain: on 9/16, the mainnet takes over the baton from Robinhood Chain. New-chain head-mining opportunities are here, but watch out for it siphoning off speculative liquidity like SOL did.
· Pendle buybacks: 2.8 million $PENDLE tokens in 7 months, emission down 78% vs. earlier this year. It also listed on Robinhood Chain for tokenized-stock dividend yield. Fundamentals are speaking.
· On the AI side: Apple’s Siri AI that’s customized with Google Gemini—first-time throttling + paid access—shows clear monetization signals. On the other side, GPT-6 autonomously burned 3,000+ yuan in API credits—make sure your Agent’s key has an upper limit.

Risks remain: listing quality risks ($FLORK/$4STOCK dump hard right after going live), and contract oracle vulnerabilities (SpiralHookV2 was stolen for 10.7 ETH) are still occurring frequently.

Across both the crypto and stock markets, the conclusion is one sentence: don’t chase highs, watch the spot, and wait for the 9/16 dual-node signals to give direction.

9/14 Diary

In the morning, I scrolled XNews—two headlines were especially jarring.

On AI: Cornell mathematician Strogatz talked about AI cracking math problems and burst into tears on the spot, saying, “At the frontier, what’s ahead is no longer human—it’s an agent.” A more brutal MIT report—its evaluation system has failed; students fall into a “learning illusion.” Meanwhile, in US equities, AI hardware quiet deals are collectively weakening: Anthropic calls for slower pace, 10Y U.S. Treasury yields hit a new high at 5.1%, and the model of building compute power by issuing debt can’t keep going forever.

On Crypto: $LSK went from 0.2 to 2.37, a 11x jump—then seemingly the CEO address transferred 3.3 million coins into Binance (worth $3.79 million). Textbook “pump—dump.” Don’t become the bag-holder.

BTC positioning is still relatively healthy: old coins in the 61–65K range had extremely low selling pressure for three straight weeks; 1.37 million newly added coins came in at 76–80K, and the focus is shifting upward. A short-term pullback doesn’t have to be overly pessimistic.

Today’s plan: tighten up the meme positions and wait for signals.

$BTC #Openclaw #AI

09-11 trading journal

US Treasury yields surged to 4.9%, and both U.S. stocks and crypto were pushed down together. Today’s CPI print is the most critical needle of the week.

On-chain, someone is going against the trend: a certain whale used THORChain over two days to swap 60.37 million USDC for 767.8 BTC, at an average price of about 78,628. On the other side, Hyperliquid’s largest long position has already flipped from profit to loss.

On the AI front, it’s still a scramble for compute power: OpenAI has paused new $200 Pro subscriptions, and the official explanation is that Astra overloaded the system. DeepSeek released V4.1-Flash weights: 552B total parameters and 300 tps. People in the space even call it V5, and it’s not far off.

In macro, the squeeze is tightening, but the narrative hasn’t stopped. Wait for the CPI data.

A day crossing Crypto + U.S. stocks—jotting down a few points for my diary. $BTC

Today it’s a tug-of-war between crypto and stocks memes on two fronts. On the BSC side, BNC is up +50% pre-market. The BNB treasury company controlled by Binance has a market cap of only $140 million. $4Stock surged from 100k to 70m. RH chain, meanwhile, plays 《delayed strength and liquidity》. Across the two chains, the competition for Alpha is essentially a question of where the money flows.

On the AI side, GPT-6 Astra’s Computer Use truly moved from demos to live operations. OSWorld 2.0 single-task mode dropped from ~75 minutes to ~40 minutes, and it can route across different software and remember privacy boundaries. The cost curve for task-based agents is rapidly trending downward—this is worth closely watching.

Don’t ignore the risk side: Liquid Network’s white-hat in one day took home a $47.2 million bounty. WeWorm’s zero-click worm instantly broke into WeChat accounts. The imbalance between offense and defense is worsening; security is the easiest variable in this cycle to be underestimated.

A macro resonance main theme: the big-goods inflation driver. Copper broke above $14,668/ton to a historical high, and inventories are still falling. The AI data center + power shortage logic. Copper dollars, power dollars—this might be the next main line. (Not investment advice; personal notes.)
