Bosses, if you haven’t bound an invitation code for a Binance Web3 wallet yet, you can use my invitation code to bind it. Even older accounts that are already in use can also fill it in. It can reduce trading fees by 30%. If you’re刷刷(trading)every day, the savings over the long run can be significant.
How to bind: On the Binance app, go to the Wallet homepage, tap "Invite" → tap to enter the invitation code → copy the invitation code "EMBER" and paste it, then tap OK.
The treasury is pulling in too now as well. MicroStrategy won’t buy crypto in the short term. Bitmine is still buying, but the volume is already very small. What’s noteworthy is the “taste” of maintaining the record of continuous purchases without interruption.
Treasury operation update from last week: ◎ MicroStrategy didn’t sell BTC last week. Instead, it sold stock worth $525 million to increase its U.S. dollar reserves for the shareholders’ benefit. They currently hold $3.75 billion in U.S. dollar reserves, which can cover 25 months of interest payments. ◎ Bitmine bought 9,946 ETH last week ($18.87 million), a small amount—enough to keep the weekly ETH-buying record since the treasury was launched.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------- ◎ Bitcoin treasury company Strategy (MSTR) now holds a total of 843,775 BTC ($54.634 billion), with an average cost basis of $75,476. It is currently down $8.85 billion (-13.9%).
◎ Ethereum treasury company Bitmine (BMNR) purchased 9,946 ETH at a price of about $1,897 last week ($18.87 million). It now holds a total of 5,787,414 ETH ($11.274 billion), with an average cost basis of $3,373. It is currently down $8.247 billion (-42.2%).

Whale welcomes a Changxin opening after an hour, with a $18 million short order, and plans to close at $2–$4.5 (¥13~¥30).
Since yesterday, he has been continuously shorting, bringing his CXMT short position to $18 million, with an average short price of $6.4 (≈¥43). Just now, he placed take-profit orders for his short position at $2–$4.5 (¥13~¥30).
Right now, the CXMT pre-market contract price surged to $7, and he is currently down $1.4 million. Do you think he can make money today, or will he lose?

Whale $6.4 (≈¥43.5) goes long $12.70 million in short positions and other positions… Changxin Memory (CXMT) is set to list tomorrow. Basically, it’s just betting that Changxin can’t get up to a ¥3 trillion (RMB) market cap. Do you think it can open tomorrow and hold above ¥3 trillion (RMB)?
Changxin’s issuance price is ¥8.66 (≈$1.29) per share, corresponding to a market cap of ¥580 billion. Meanwhile, the market’s expectations (Hyperliquid pre-market contracts) are $6.1 (≈¥42), corresponding to a market cap of ¥2.8 trillion.
At this pre-market price, Changxin’s market cap is roughly 40%~50% of SK hynix or Micron’s market cap.
Yesterday, TRUMP team address unlock and transferred tokens to CEX: 13.8 million TRUMP ($21.94 million) were transferred to Binance, OKX, and Kucoin 15 minutes ago.
TRUMP team token address unlocked and transferred 10.837 million TRUMP ($16.91 million) about 45 minutes ago.
Judging from the previous two unlock-and-transfer routes, these tokens will subsequently be transferred into BitGo, and then flow into CEXs such as OKX.

AFX Trade hackers have started swapping ETH for BTC using the cross-chain exchange tool THORChain.
The AFX Trade bridge was stolen for 24.15 million USDC two days ago, and these USDC were then converted into 12,467.4 ETH. Today, about 1 hour ago, the hackers began using THORChain to cross-chain swap ETH for BTC; so far, 655.4 ETH has been cross-chained into 18.86 BTC.

Hackers are stepping up again this year. It’s bad enough that the market is terrible, but they’re also repeatedly getting hacked, and the amounts are huge.
The Arbitrum bridge for Perp DEX AFX Trade was apparently hacked about 3 hours ago, with 24.15 million USDC stolen.
USDC was anomalously drained from the bridge, then bridged across to Ethereum, and swapped at a price of $1,937 for 12,467.4 ETH.
The abnormal ETH outflow was then swapped for ETH: 0x2f2974fAbc54dbA33442261211c06BD20E0FEefc Currently, the ETH is held at: 0x627654B2782bfC57580ecD11d40869b350B6ebAC
TRUMP team token address unlocked and transferred 10.837 million TRUMP ($16.91 million) about 45 minutes ago.
Judging from the previous two unlock-and-transfer routes, these tokens will subsequently be transferred into BitGo, and then flow into CEXs such as OKX.
Worldcoin Foundation sold 217 million WLD tokens to institutions including Pantera Capital about 8 hours ago in exchange for $52.5 million in funding.
Although they did not disclose the token sale price, they carried out on-chain token transfers after releasing the announcement: the team wallet distributed 217.4 million WLD to multiple addresses.
Based on the token quantity and the amount raised, their selling price was approximately $0.24, which is a 36% discount compared to the current WLD price. These WLD must be locked up for 1 year, which is (one of) the reasons for the discount.
A whale sold off 8,010 ETH ($15.11 million) and transferred it to Binance 3 hours ago. The whale held the ETH for 8 months and lost $10.82 million.
◎ In November last year, 10,026 ETH ($29.26 million) was withdrawn from Binance at a price of $2,918. ◎ 2,010 ETH was transferred into Binance in June this year, and 8,010 ETH was transferred into Binance today. The average transfer-out price was $1,838. The whale lost $10.82 million.
A MakerDAO founding team/investor address that sold MKR it had held for more than 10 years about 20 minutes ago, converting it into USDC.
1. In April 2016, it received 1,050 MKR. 2. After that, the 1,050 MKR sat in the wallet for 10 years without any movement (except for a small token migration when the MKR token was upgraded in 2018). 3. Finally, this 1,050 MKR was sold today, 10 years later, and converted into 1.316 million USDC, which was transferred to Kraken.

BTC Treasury Company KULR Technology transferred 145.8 BTC (US$9.45 million) to Coinbase Prime 5 hours ago.
◎ After multiple partial sell-offs over the past 3 months, the 1,021 BTC (US$101 million) they had reserved now only leaves 100 BTC (US$6.47 million). ◎ Their average BTC holding cost was US$98,923, and their sell-off average price was US$74,368. They lost US$22.62 million.
They should have abandoned their Bitcoin treasury strategy: selling BTC, taking down the Bitcoin treasury page on their official website, and their official X account hasn’t mentioned Bitcoin in a long time.

Another BTC treasury company "cutting losses": KULR Technology transferred 300 BTC ($24.36 million) to Coinbase Prime 2 hours ago.
They announced in December 2024 that they would allocate 90% of surplus cash to BTC, accumulating a reserve of 1,021 BTC ($101 million) by July 2025, with an average price of $98,923. At the current price, their BTC has lost $18.25 million.
This seems to be just another "game" of telling a financial story using reserve BTC: KULR's stock price skyrocketed nearly 10x to $43.92 after announcing the BTC reserve in December 2024, only to plummet since then. As of now, it’s down to $3.19, losing 92.7%.
The $285 million stolen assets from Drift Protocol have begun being moved by hackers via Tornado.
1. On April 2, multiple assets worth up to $285 million were stolen from the Perp DEX Drift Protocol on Solana. 2. The hackers bridged the assets to the Ethereum network, then converted them into 129,066 ETH at an average price of $2,154 ($278 million). 3. The hackers started moving ETH into Tornado (the “tornado”) 20 minutes ago today; they have already transferred 5,800 ETH ($11.14 million).

Drift's stolen assets worth $285 million have been exchanged for 129,066 ETH ($278 million).
1. The Perp DEX Drift Protocol on Solana was hacked in the early morning, with various assets stolen, valued at up to $285 million. 2. The hacker, over the past few hours, sold these assets and cross-chained them to the Ethereum network, then bought ETH on the Ethereum network. 3. Now, the $285 million worth of assets stolen by the hacker on Solana has been converted to 129,066 ETH ($278 million) on the Ethereum network.
The exchanged ETH is currently stored in the following 4 wallets: 0xAa843eD65C1f061F111B5289169731351c5e57C1 0x0FE3b6908318B1F630daa5B31B49a15fC5F6B674 0xbDdAE987FEe930910fCC5aa403D5688fB440561B 0xD3FEEd5DA83D8e8c449d6CB96ff1eb06ED1cF6C7
Whale sold Google after the company’s earnings report, then shifted to storage.
This Google earnings report gamble paid off for Whale: CapEx (capital expenditures) was raised again by an additional $15 billion, and Google Cloud revenue grew 82%. The problem is that while the data is good news for AI infrastructure, it’s not good news for the company itself: Google fell 3% after hours, while storage-related SK Hynix and Micron rose 3%.
So after the earnings release, Whale cut a $740,000 loss by closing his Google long position worth $13.5 million. Then he immediately went long storage again: at a price of $977.6, he bought Micron worth $24.1 million.
Yesterday, a whale who went long on Micron ($MU) and profited $171 million, is back to bet on Google’s earnings report in 5 hours: In the past half hour, he went long on $10.66 million worth of GOOGL at a buy price of $349.7.
After-hours at 4:00 AM, Google releases its earnings report—now AI-stock holders should be more nervous than Google-stock holders about the data in their earnings report 😂
Half the year has only just passed, and multiple theft incidents have already resulted in losses exceeding $800 million. Hacker bull market.

The next 10 days are when the U.S. “Magnificent Seven” are set to report earnings. Whether their capital expenditures (CapEx) keep ramping up—and whether their AI revenue growth is strong enough—may determine whether AI infrastructure-related activity cools off with a pullback or keeps soaring.
Big players are also placing bets: over the past hour or so, one whale transferred 14.64 million USDC into Hyperliquid, then went long on Micron (MU) worth $28.5 million at a long entry price of $918.
Looks like Multicoin Capital is selling 607,000 HYPE ($37 million): They transferred 395,000 HYPE to Coinbase 4 hours ago, as well as applying for redemption on Hyperliquid for the 211,000 HYPE they had staked.
◎ These HYPE were bought via Galaxy Digital OTC about 5 months ago (in February), when the price was around $30. ◎ Of these, 210,000 HYPE were deposited into staking, while the remaining 395,000 HYPE were left untouched in the wallet. ◎ Today, they chose to sell: both the portion transferred to Coinbase from the wallet and the staked portion that has requested redemption. ◎ At the current HYPE price of $61, they would have gained a doubled return ($18.8 million).
