🔥$ZEC has rushed to 1500—can it still move higher from here?
This round of ZEC’s strength has indeed gone beyond many people’s expectations.
From breaking through a key resistance level and continuously setting new highs, it has now entered a very critical position:
The uptrend hasn’t shown obvious signs of being broken, but the short-term market has already entered a high-level standoff.
Currently, the market has a few viewpoints that are quite interesting.
Some traders believe that ZEC now looks more like high-level consolidation within a strong trend. As long as the core breakout zone can be defended, there’s still a possibility for further upward expansion.
But some analysts are starting to warn:
Rising too fast is itself a risk.
Derivatives positioning continues to increase, and technical indicators have also moved into a clearly overheated area.
So going forward, I won’t simply chase the number “1500.”
I’m watching three areas instead:
First, the breakout zone overhead.
If ZEC can continue to break the prior high with expanding volume, and after breaking out it can turn this zone into a new support level, then the strong uptrend still has room to continue.
For the next phase above, keep an eye on higher integer psychological levels.
Second, the pressure around 1500.
This is a very important psychological level.
If it spikes up and then quickly falls back, it suggests that profit-taking from higher levels has started to cash in.
In that case, the short term is more likely to enter consolidation rather than immediately pushing higher.
Third, the core support zone below.
Right now, market analysis is focused on the earlier breakout zone.
As long as this zone holds, ZEC is still in a strong structure.
But if it breaks down and the subsequent retest can’t reclaim it, then be careful—this rally may be entering a deeper correction. Earlier analysis also pointed to the next lower layer of support as an observation area if the trend starts to weaken.
So my conclusion is simple:
ZEC still has upside potential, but the risk of chasing after a spike is getting higher.
Strong breakout and holding firm → continue to look for trend extension.
Push high and then pull back at high levels → wait for the dip to confirm.
If core support is lost → guard against the uptrend structure weakening.
When the market is strong, you can’t rely on emotion to chase.
I’d rather wait for a comfortable entry point than FOMO just because I see 1500.

September 14: AI megacorporations will not slow down development, and AI stocks will not collapse because of it! Serenity said that leading AI labs such as OpenAI and Anthropic are almost certainly unable—or unwilling—to intentionally slow down development. Moreover, most of the “regulations” they are trying to put in place are largely regulatory capture intended to slow down competition. The public statements about “slowing development” are mostly performative. 🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧🧧
Serenity also criticized claims on the X platform that AI-related stocks (such as NVDA and TSM) are “about to collapse,” emphasizing that memory and the chip supply chain will remain tight through 2031. This shows that the contest for AI development resources is still accelerating.
🔥 FOMC delivered results, and the market shifted from “waiting for answers” to “digesting the answers” The Federal Reserve raised rates for the first time in three years by 25 basis points, bringing the federal funds rate to 3.75%–4.00%. BTC briefly fell to around $75.3K, then regained and moved back above $76K. 📉 ETFs: about $746M outflow over two days On September 15, spot BTC ETF net outflows were about $450M; on September 16, there was another outflow of about $296M. Together, the two-day total is nearly $746M—one of the largest consecutive outflow streaks recently. But this looks more like a concentrated reaction to blocked CLARITY momentum and the FOMC outcome, not simply a sign of long-term capital leaving. 🏛 US Regulation: the Senate and House head in different directions The CLARITY Act did not receive the 60 votes needed to advance in the Senate. Meanwhile, two related bills passed in the House committee: American Reserve Modernization Act: 28–21 Digital Asset Tax Certainty Act: 38–5 Market-structure legislation is temporarily stalled, but BTC reserves and the digital asset tax framework are still moving forward. ⚡ Circle Arc Mainnet officially goes live Circle launched an L1 Arc that uses USDC as gas, targeting sub-second finality.

Now the market is really watching the Dot Plot, the inflation path, and whether the remaining time through 2026 will still see tightening. BTC is still looking for direction within the $75K–$80K range. #1688家族family #蓝朋友1688 #CryptoWatchMay2024 #EthereumEFT #FOMC
Will the Federal Reserve raise rates as expected this week? Wall Street is debating: will it end the U.S. stock bull market?
After an unexpectedly strong U.S. CPI report came out last Friday, traders generally expect the Federal Reserve to begin raising rates at this week’s policy meeting—marking the first rate hike in more than three years.
Historically, previous rounds of rate hikes have offered a reference point for today’s market. Based on past experience (though history of course can’t guarantee the future), U.S. stocks may first weaken, then rebound.
Among the six tightening cycles since 1994, during the first four months after the rate-hike cycle began, the S&P 500’s average return was negative.
This suggests that once the “rate-hike shoe” drops, U.S. stocks may look lackluster through the beginning of next year.
As of the close last Friday, the benchmark U.S. equity index, the S&P 500, is up nearly 12% year to date. Strong corporate earnings and a fairly resilient economy have provided solid support for bulls in the stock market.
If you extend the time horizon, the S&P 500’s performance tends to improve gradually: in the 12 months after the start of a rate-hiking cycle, the index’s average return is close to 7%, with a median return of about 11%. (Using median-based statistics helps remove distortions from extreme outliers—for example, the index surged more than 40% after hikes began in March 1997.)
If the Federal Reserve implements a rate hike this Wednesday, it will be the first hike since July 2023—when the Fed raised rates to a range of 5.25% to 5.50%.
Currently, the federal funds rate in the U.S. is at 3.50% to 3.75%. According to the CME Group’s FedWatch tool, futures traders currently assign an 86% probability to a 25-basis-point hike this week.
One positive factor for the market is that mega-scale cloud service providers are still driving growth in excess returns through large-scale AI spending. The S&P 500 component stocks’ forecast for earnings growth in 2027 is expected to reach double digits. If the outlook for AI spending remains unchanged, it may be enough to offset any cooling in optimistic sentiment caused by the rate hikes.
Another bright spot for equities is that although inflation remains sticky, it appears to be slowing. The inflation rate has fallen from a May peak of 4.2%. This should allow the Federal Reserve to take a more gradual approach, and the data shows that the pace of rate hikes is crucial for stock performance—slower pacing gives investors more time to absorb policy changes! $BZ
🧧🎁🧧🎁🧧🎁 Around September 18, a series of important infrastructure upgrades, project pivots, and industry ecosystem developments took place in the blockchain sector:
1. The Vanar chain completed a major migration and formally shut down its independent L1 mainnet Vanar project. On September 18, it officially initiated the shutdown and liquidation procedures for its original independent Layer 1 blockchain. Before that, on September 17, the project had completed the migration of its token contracts, and trading of VANRY tokens on Ethereum and Polygon was formally paused, fully transitioning to the Base chain. This move marks its departure from the early era of independent public chains. In the future, its strategy will fully shift toward an AI application ecosystem built on the Base chain and “AI Organizations” (AI orgs) platform (such as the Foundry platform planned for release on October 1).
2. In mid-September, the industry’s pragmatic shift toward real-world Web3 business adoption accelerated. The focus of discussions in the Web3 space is moving faster from pure token speculation and concept hype toward “eliminating real-world friction in commerce.” Developers and startups are increasingly inclined to apply blockchain technology to scenarios that truly require multi-party trust, tamper-proof credentials, supply-chain anti-counterfeiting, and digital identity verification—while keeping sensitive data and core business logic off-chain. The emphasis is on “trust infrastructure is better than token theater.”
3. Global regional Web3 and blockchain conferences continued to advance. With mid-September approaching, Web3 technical events and conferences combining academia and industry (such as regional tech events like Brazil’s Web3 PE, etc.) are also rolling out in close succession. These discussions mainly focus on concrete deployment cases of blockchain in areas such as the digital economy, compliant payments, and the creative industries. Overall, as of September 18, the Web3 industry is undergoing structural adjustments: public-chain ecosystems are converging toward mainstream high-performance networks (such as Base) through architectural upgrades, while the industry’s application layer is becoming more pragmatic and compliant.

Are you really suited to make a living by trading? Part Six
⑥ Finally, ask yourself one more question
Do you really spend a lot of time every day learning and analyzing?
Many people ask me:
“Why don’t I have results even after trading for a year?”
But if you dig in carefully:
How many hours do you actually spend learning every day?
Do you do a review afterward?
Do you keep a trading log?
Do you track your win rate, profit-to-loss ratio, and maximum drawdown?
Do you analyze what kinds of market conditions you are most likely to make mistakes in?
In the end, you’ll find that:
In fact, many people don’t really do it.
So some people say:
“I’m not good at trading, so trading isn’t for me.”
I think that conclusion was reached too quickly.
You should first ask yourself:
Have I really built a trading environment that suits me?
Have I really found a trading approach that fits my personality?
Have I really put in enough time to learn?
Have I systematically verified my method?
If these questions still haven’t been resolved,
then it’s time to say:
“Trading isn’t working.”
Actually, it’s still too early.
Finally, what I want to say is:
Many people understand “successful trading” as:
Finding a magical indicator.
But in reality, truly long-term, stable trading is more like a complete system:
your income structure +your lifestyle +your trading +your personality +a trading style that suits you +knowledge +risk management +mental resilience
As long as any one of these elements has been a problem for a long time,
it may eventually show up in your trading results.
So before asking:
“Can I get rich by trading?”
first ask yourself:
“Is my current life really already prepared for me to become a trader?”
This may be far more important than learning another indicator.

It’s Friday. Let’s break down the key data from this week in the crypto market. After you finish reading, you’ll have a pretty good sense of where things stand:
📊 Price Data
BTC this week: high 79,800, low 74,944, range 6.2%. Currently around 77,000. Weekly: nearly flat. ETH this week: high 2,640, low 2,360, range 11.9%. Currently around 2,460. Weekly: slightly up. BTC dominance fell from 59.3% to 58.6%. Funds started rotating toward altcoins and derivatives: trading volume down 13.8%, suggesting short-term capital is waiting on the sidelines—nobody’s making reckless moves.
🔥 Sector Performance (24h)
DeFi +6.8% (top performer): UNI +17%, NEAR +24%, AAVE +8% DePIN +5.5%: Geodnet +45% L2 +4.5% RWA +5% Meanwhile, major coins rose the least: BTC +0.7%, ETH +1.5%
📰 Weekly Highlights
Monday: The “Clear Act” Senate vote failed 50:49; probability of passage within the year is only 16% Wednesday: The Fed raised rates by 25 bps to 3.75%–4%; passed unanimously; the dot plot suggests another hike is likely still this year Thursday: BTC ETF saw a daily outflow of $450 million, the largest since June Thursday night: The SEC issued an “innovation exemption,” allowing tokenized stocks to trade on-chain (with trading limits and transparency requirements) Friday early morning: S&P Global announced the acquisition of smart contract security firm OpenZeppelin
💡 My Take:
It looks like there were plenty of negative catalysts this week—failed legislation, rate hikes, ETF outflows—but prices didn’t drop much at all. In fact, altcoins started rising. What does that mean? It suggests the damage from the negatives is weakening, and buy-side demand is stepping in from below.
Especially worth noting are the last two pieces of news: the SEC allowing tokenized stocks to trade on-chain, and S&P Global acquiring OpenZeppelin. Many people focus only on the “Clear Act” failing and assume regulation is basically over—but regulation isn’t simply black or white. Major legislation may not move, but innovation in smaller areas keeps progressing. Traditional finance is also quietly moving into blockchain.
So don’t be too pessimistic, and don’t be too optimistic either. What you’re seeing now is a choppy “bottoming-out” range market: pressure overhead, support below. In terms of strategy, don’t chase or panic-sell—buy low and sell high.
At 4 p.m., let’s chat in the room: “How will next week likely go, and which sectors could have opportunities?” If you’re interested, come join.

BTC falls below the 78,000 mark—today’s PPI is the “trailer” for the CPI This morning, BTC tested the 78,000 support, dipping as low as 77,900. The market is like a fully drawn bow, just waiting for tonight’s PPI and tomorrow’s CPI to release the string. First, let’s talk about why PPI matters. PPI is the Producer Price Index—basically a “leading indicator” for CPI. If factory costs rise, it will eventually filter through to consumers. Market expectations are PPI MoM +0.2% and YoY +1.4%. If it comes in above expectations, it’s basically like previewing that tomorrow’s CPI won’t look good either— the probability of further rate hikes keeps climbing, and BTC will most likely drop to test lower supports. Conversely, if PPI is below expectations, markets may price in optimism in advance that “the CPI could cool off,” and the 80,000 level might be pulled back just like that. My plan today: I’m not betting on direction—I’ll wait for the data. I cut my position to 30%, keeping plenty of ammunition on hand, and I’ll make moves once the numbers come out. The PPI release is tonight at 20:30, and I’ll interpret it in real time in the chat. Want to know first how the data will affect the market? Tap my avatar to enter the chat—the code word is “PPI.” By the way, do you think today’s PPI will beat expectations or come in below them? Drop your bet in the comments: if it beats expectations, you lose 1; if it’s below expectations, you lose 2.
