【9/14 Early · Market Heat】

On Monday at the open, the big BTC coin is trading near 76,800. $BTC is about 76,805 (−0.6%); ETH is about 2,476 (−2.0%); SOL is about 99.4 (−2.4%). Fear & Greed is 61—Greed. The relative strength from the weekend has been fully unwound; it looks more like a de-risking/position-reduction before an event, rather than a fresh upswing.

Heating up
1. Thin-book pulse: CVC is about +39%, ZKJ about +25%, and $LSK about +17%. Volume is still there—don’t treat it as a trend until liquidity returns on Monday.
2. Storage/old-coin spikes: FIL about +19%, with AR / BAT also in the green; the CG trend board shows LSK / PONS / PENDLE.

Cooling down
STORJ is about −13%, continuing to wipe out the weekend gains. ETHFI / RAY / PUMP are soft. ZEC is around 1,064 (−5.5%); privacy heat steps down another level.

Sentiment: Hot tickets give back gains + majors are dull/soft. This week’s hard gate (rule) doesn’t change—tomorrow’s CLARITY program vote (needs 60 votes), followed immediately by the FOMC. Public pricing of interest-rate hike odds remains high. Don’t chase the pulse on Monday morning.
