Whoa, I just saw this chart in the square, and I'm completely stunned. This isn't trading; it's practically a real-life 'suicidal attack'.
Brothers, did you see clearly? This dude went short on $LAB at 0.68, and now the price has skyrocketed to 4.7. He's sitting on a paper loss of $487,000, with a return rate of negative 85.95%. What's heartbreaking is his message: he's mortgaged his house and car, and has been margin-calling ever since; he really can't borrow any more money now. The liquidation price is at 5.29, just a step away from the current price.
Honestly, looking at this chart really reminds me of my past self. That desperate feeling of watching the price jump toward the liquidation line while being completely powerless is enough to drive anyone insane. This isn't shorting; it's like playing a 'life swap' game with the market makers. You thought 0.68 was a high point, but the market makers are telling you there's always a higher high.
What I admire (and feel sorry for) is his obsession. Going all-in short with 1x leverage, enduring nearly a 7x increase. That takes some serious 'courage' and a thick wallet, huh? But the trading market doesn’t care about tears, and definitely doesn’t believe in 'holding on for dear life'. You try to reason with the market makers, but they just want to drain your last drop of blood. $BTC #LAB
Wow, this guy made 140,000 times his investment in 14 years. Who else can be as awesome as him? In 2011, he spent less than $8,000 to buy 10,000 $BTC , when one Bitcoin was only $0.78.
So what happened? He just held on for 14 years! By October 2025, when Bitcoin broke through $109,000, he sold everything and cashed out over $1 billion. A 140,000 times return, this is not just investment, this is simply like cultivating immortality.
To be honest, what I admire most is not that he bought early, but that he was able to hold on. Over these 14 years, he experienced hundreds of crashes and endured four long bear markets lasting several years. How many times did the market halve, how many times did the media shout 'Bitcoin will go to zero', and he never wavered once. This kind of determination is really not something ordinary people can possess.
I used to have quite a few good stocks, but I sold when they rose two or three times, and cut losses when they fell by 20%. Seeing others get a 140,000 times increase, I can only mock myself: people like us who can't hold on deserve to miss out on big money.
Risk Warning: This kind of 'get rich quick myth' is an extreme case of survivor bias. Just because he made a fortune after 14 years, don’t think you can do the same. Investment requires caution; first, ask yourself if you can withstand a 90% drawdown.
What do you think? If you bought 10,000 Bitcoins in 2011, could you still hold on until now? Be honest in the comments, at which point would you get off the ride? $BTC
Holy crap! A big shot's one sentence reveals the essence of money—money is actually alive. The more you use it, the more money you end up having. Like BTC: if nobody uses it, BTC has no value at all. If you were in that position, how would you hold your own cryptocurrency?$BTC
$133 Million Bought Against the Trend: Why Binance Users Are Betting on AI Storage
This isn’t just a simple “bottom-fishing” in chip stocks; rather, it’s funds redefining the core bottleneck in AI trading. As of the week ending July 8, Binance users net invested about $133 million into the AI storage sector, doubling versus the previous week. Of which: SanDisk obtained about $67 million, while Micron obtained about $66 million; together, they account for about 79% of the platform’s net stock inflow. The technology sector’s net inflow is about $191 million. In the same period, the net inflow of all stocks is about $169.2 million, down 12% month over month. The most unusual thing is that the funds are not chasing the rally; instead, they are集中 buying during the downturn. On July 2, SanDisk fell by about 14% in a single day. Meanwhile, funds flowed out of the robotics and aerospace themes by $38 million and $31 million, respectively. Binance Research Institute summarized this rotation as: funds left the periphery of AI applications and shifted toward storage infrastructure.
Robinhood Chain goes live on the mainnet—$CASHCAT surges to a market cap over 100 million yuan. Full interaction guide here
Robinhood Chain goes live on the mainnet. The first on-chain Meme, $CASHCAT, surged to nearly a $100 million market cap. Then a wave of new Memes followed. Trading volume and the number of addresses ramped up quickly. Only then did many people realize that Robinhood’s own chain can already support cross-chain transfers, swaps, and lending—and even enable direct trading of US stock tokens like AAPL, NVDA, and TSLA. Let’s start with one key point: As of July 10, 2026, Robinhood has not announced a native token, no chain-level points, and no airdrop plans. If you interact now, it’s to get familiar with the ecosystem and to leave on-chain records. There’s no need to use batches of wallets to artificially boost volume.
Latest: Eric Trump calls for BTC to reach $1 million—his family holdings are 8,000 BTC, worth $520 million on paper. This time, it’s not just talk! Many people say they want BTC to rise to a million, but behind Eric Trump’s words there are 8,000 BTC backing them. At current prices, it comes to over $520 million. This isn’t a tweet—it’s a position. Putting the relevant figures together: the Trump family’s private holdings are 8,000 BTC, worth $520 million on paper; the U.S. federal government holds about 300,000 BTC, and official policy is not to sell; Donald Trump disclosed in federal property disclosure forms that he holds more than $50 million worth of BTC, stored in a cold wallet; the Trump family’s annual crypto income exceeds $1.4 billion (TRUMP coin license fees 635 million + WLFI token 515 million + direct holdings). This family’s bullish exposure in the crypto market is no longer just a matter of statements. Of the Trump family’s crypto income, over $1.1 billion comes from TRUMP coin license fees and WLFI token sales—these two sources of funds are ordinary buyers, and TRUMP coin holders are currently down more than $3.8 billion on paper. A family that goes long on BTC while cashing out on self-issued tokens has a complex interest structure. They’re bullish on BTC as a real thing; whether they’re bullish in the best interest of each holder is another question. Two choices—how do you bet? A. The Trump family’s holdings are a genuine signal, and BTC will touch one million within the next five years B. Political endorsements have an expiration date, and family interests may not align with retail investors’ interests $BTC #特朗普家族
Strategy model reverse engineering: BTC annualized return 30%, theoretical price in 2030 $302,000; but breakeven ARR only needs 3.33% At first glance, this set of numbers looks wild, but first let’s figure out what it’s actually calculating. This isn’t a price prediction model—it’s a scenario analysis tool. If you input a hypothetical annualized return rate (ARR), it tells you what the theoretical BTC price path would look like under that assumption. The model itself doesn’t judge whether the ARR will be achieved. Current parameters: BTC $62,664, ARR 30%, volatility 40%, calculation period 30 years. The breakeven ARR is only 3.33%. The path produced by 30% annualized compounding: in 2027 $137,673, in 2028 $178,975, in 2030 $302,468, and in 2034 $863,879. When ARR increases by 5%, the long-term outcome diverges dramatically—2030 goes from $111,000 at 10% ARR to $463,000 at 40% ARR, a fourfold difference. What’s truly interesting about this model is the breakeven number: 3.33%. Meaning: as long as BTC’s future annualized return over the next 30 years stays above 3.33%, Strategy’s credit structure won’t break. What does 3.33% mean—US 10-year Treasury yields are around that level. In other words, Strategy’s risk pricing is effectively using Treasury yield levels as the minimum assumption for BTC. This framework makes Seller’s logic very clear: he doesn’t need BTC to reach $1 million; he only needs BTC to outperform US dollar inflation. Combining BTC’s actual compounded growth over the past 15 years (about 25%–35%, source: Glassnode historical data), the 2030 outcomes for three scenarios are: Conservative (15% ARR): $147,000 Neutral (25% ARR): $238,000 Optimistic (35% ARR): $373,000 Note that the "conservative" here is 15%, which is already far above the long-term returns of any traditional asset. If you believe BTC won’t deliver 15% annualized in the future, then this framework isn’t meaningful for you. If you think it can, then the numbers are on that order of magnitude. The model also has a largely overlooked implication: as BTC’s price rises, Strategy’s credit condition keeps improving. BTC Reserve increases, the asset coverage multiple rises, and the breakeven ARR may even fall below 3.33%. This means it’s a self-reinforcing structure—provided BTC doesn’t drop below a certain threshold. Where is the threshold? With the current model parameters, the 3.33% breakeven corresponds to an extremely low BTC price floor—far below the current level. What do you think will happen to BTC’s future price direction? $BTC #BTC
Warn students not to take the civil service exam and instead trade U.S. stocks: Niuke CEO Zhang Xiaolong resigns. Behind it is a “civil service exam empire” propped up by 2.677 billion yuan in revenue, self-tearing apart Earning 2.677 billion yuan a year from selling civil service exam courses, yet the CEO runs to public lectures to say “don’t take the exam—go trade U.S. stocks.” Put this contradiction together, and it’s already an awkward situation that’s hard to justify. At a public lecture in China’s universities, Zhang Xiaolong advised students not to take the civil service exam, but to invest in U.S. stocks. Taken on its own, the statement doesn’t sound like a problem—many people agree with this logic. But the person saying it is running a company whose core business survives by selling civil service exam training courses. Last year, revenue reached 2.677 billion yuan, almost entirely funded by the tuition paid by the students he advised to “not go down this road.” After the controversy erupted, he chose to resign. The real tension in this matter isn’t about what he got wrong; it’s about a public rift between one person’s real judgment and the business model that he has been living off of. If he truly believes trading U.S. stocks is more promising than taking the exam, what does this 2.677 billion yuan in revenue mean? If he doesn’t believe it, then what does that lecture mean? Either answer doesn’t look good. The essence of the civil service exam boom is a pressure valve in the job market. Koolearn’s business model is built on that pressure. The more people feel that their options are narrow, the larger the civil service exam training market becomes. When a CEO publicly sings against the grain, it’s not just a personal opinion issue—it shakes the underlying logic of why his company exists. To resign is, in a sense, the only decent exit from this contradiction. What do you think about this—was he telling the truth, or did he just say the wrong thing at the wrong time and in the wrong place?$AAPL.US #SK海力士美国IPO募资265亿美元
Sun Yuchen Tops the Hurun U35 List: TRON Valued at RMB 227.5 Billion—Does a Single Controversial Figure Become China’s Startup Vanguard? When the Hurun list was released, what was most surprising wasn’t who made it onto the榜—it's the figure for TRON. RMB 227.5 billion, accounting for 47% of the combined total value of all first-generation startup companies on this year’s list. With 187 people selected, TRON alone captures nearly half of the valuation weight. Other names on the same榜 include AI-sector leaders such as SenseTime, Moonshot AI, and MiniMax. Sun Yuchen is one of the most hotly debated figures in the crypto industry. The USDD de-peg controversy, multiple times being accused by the SEC, and frequent scrutiny over large transfers on-chain—these are almost common knowledge within the圈. But purely from the numbers, TRON’s on-chain data does appear to support the valuation. Current TRON (TRX) data: • Average daily on-chain transaction volume remains consistently in the global top three (Source: TronScan) • The circulating supply of USDT on the TRON chain exceeds $60 billion, making it the largest stablecoin settlement chain in the world (Source: CoinGecko) • Protocol revenue in 2025 exceeds $1 billion, ranking among the top across all public chains (Source: Token Terminal) In the stablecoin settlement space, TRON’s market share is real. No matter how you feel about Sun Yuchen personally, USDT-TRC20 is one of the most widely used on-chain payment tools globally, covering regions with high levels of dollarization such as Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and Africa. Behind Hurun’s chosen valuation method is a question worth asking: how exactly was the RMB 227.5 billion calculated? TRON is not a listed company, and it does not release public financial reports. The valuation is derived from TRX market capitalization plus a valuation of ecosystem assets. This kind of approach is common among crypto assets, but it doesn’t align with the logic used to value the AI companies on the same list—typically based on revenue or funding. To draw an analogy: if you translate Bitcoin’s market cap into an “entrepreneur’s company valuation,” Satoshi Nakamoto would have been number one on the list long ago. The real signal here isn’t which榜 Sun Yuchen made it onto, but that Hurun—an organization that serves China’s traditional wealth circle—has started placing crypto founders alongside leaders in AI, life sciences, and advanced manufacturing on the same list. This is another step toward legitimizing asset categories. It doesn’t come from regulators; it comes from recognition within the wealth community. What do you think of this list?$TRX #胡润研究院
4chan anonymous post accurately predicts BTC topping in October 2025; two cycle models point to a bottom in Q4 2026 at the same time At the end of 2023, an anonymous user posted on 4chan and wrote a specific, month-level prediction: BTC would top on October 6, 2025. And it really happened. This isn’t a retrospective interpretation—there’s a timestamped public record. BTC 2025 cycle high point: about $109,000; the time window closely matches the prediction (Source: CoinGecko historical prices) The prediction is based on two independent cycle-based mathematical models. Core variables: the halving cycle (about 1,064 days) + the historical pattern of how drawdowns from previous bottoms tighten. Currently, BTC is down about 53% from the 2025 high. Historical bottom drawdowns: 2015 -87%, 2018 -84%, 2022 -77% (Source: Glassnode) The next target indicated by both models: a bottom in Q4 2026. Then BTC targets $190,000, ETH $15,000, SOL $1,000 Why should this prediction be taken seriously instead of dismissed as mere noise? First, the timestamp is verifiable. The 4chan post has a public archive and wasn’t written after the fact. This is what distinguishes it from most “I said this earlier” predictions. Second, the cycle math has internal logic. About 12–18 months after the halving, the cycle tends to reach its top; and the bear-market bottom drawdown gradually tightens from one cycle to the next—these two patterns have been highly consistent across the first four cycles. Since two separate models reach the same conclusion, it suggests that even if the assumptions differ, the derivation paths converge. Third, the current position matches the models. From the $109K high, a 53% pullback combined with the historical tightening pattern implies this cycle’s bottom is predicted in the $38K–$45K range within the Q4 2026 time window. This overlaps with multiple independent analysts’ views. If Q4 2026 is truly the bottom of this cycle, then there are still about 3–6 months left until that window. Historically, the final “last leg” before the bottom is often the fastest drop, accompanied by extreme panic and shrinking trading volume. The real question for holders right now isn’t “Is the model right?”—it’s: if the bottom is $38K–$45K, can your position structure hold up until then without getting shaken out.
Two years later, $BTC is still at 63,000: all macro narratives fell flat—what signal is the market waiting for? This set of data has had me watching it for a long time. In June 2024 it was 63,000; in 2026 it’s still 63,000. What happened in between? Trump elected, the Fed pivoting to support crypto, the conflict between Iran and Israel, and U.S. stocks hitting fresh all-time highs—each one, taken alone, was a reason for “BTC to break out.” In the end, the price just stayed put. Current on-chain data (source: Glassnode / CryptoQuant): BTC spot price range: $61,000–$64,000—its center of gravity hasn’t moved in two years BTC net outflows from exchanges have continued, but haven’t turned into price momentum Stablecoin supply (USDT+USDC) has risen from 130 billion to about 230 billion USD—an increase of nearly 100 billion USD of potential buying power Cumulative net inflows into BTC ETFs exceed $35 billion (source: Bloomberg ETF data) The question is: money is coming in—why hasn’t the price moved? Three possible explanations: First, the macro narrative is exhausted. Before every “bullish” catalyst, the market has already priced it in. Before Trump’s election, BTC surged from 40,000 to 100,000; once the narrative played out, it was “cash-checked,” and there was no additional demand. Second, structural selling suppresses price. Profit-taking by MicroStrategy and long-term holders, plus miners’ selling pressure—all combine to form a ceiling. On-chain data shows that whenever price approaches $70K, there are large transfers back to exchanges. Third, capital is waiting for a real catalyst, not a narrative. ETF inflows are allocation flows, not speculative ones—they won’t chase the upside. What can truly push price is a new source of demand, not a repeat of old stories. What the market faces now isn’t a bear market—it’s a vacuum after the narratives run out. The drivers of 2020–2021 were the DeFi + institutional entry narrative. The drivers of 2024 were the ETF + halving narrative. Both have already been fully priced in. The next real catalyst could be: Mass-scale on-chain payments from AI Agents (CZ has publicly stated this; the window is “a few months”) Safe-haven demand sparked by a U.S. Treasury crisis (Trump mentioned using crypto to repay debts) Global M2 expansion breaking through a critical threshold Until a new catalyst appears, $63K may be the equilibrium price. It may not rise, but it’s also hard to fall—costs are here, and long-term holders aren’t selling. In the next three months, which direction will $BTC break first? $BTC #BTC走势分析
Too strong—SK hynix’s US IPO subscription multiplier exceeds seven times, at $24.5 billion, the second-largest foreign company to list in the US in history! Seven-times oversubscription: the orders are backed by long-term global funds, technology special funds, sovereign wealth funds, and investors focused on Asian themes. Institutions lined up and rushed to get in. With a $24.5 billion offering size—only Alibaba’s $25 billion offering in 2014 was able to rival it. For the past few months, Wall Street has been publishing one bearish piece after another about storage chips—saying AI doesn’t need that much memory, that storage is oversupplied, and that HBM demand is slowing. Korean stocks have been under pressure, and retail investors are selling off. At the same time, institutions quietly stacked subscription orders to seven times in the primary market. Two things happen at once, but in completely opposite directions. The meaning of a seven-times subscription is very straightforward: at this price, institutions think it’s cheap—and cheap enough to fight over. The logic behind opening up 30% to 50% on Friday is clear: the offering price is fixed, subscription demand is seven times the shares offered, and the chips available at the open are likely to be snatched up. Of course, whether investors can hold after the initial surge is another matter. The first-day rally may have already priced in expectations; afterward, the trend depends on whether the fundamentals can support the sentiment. The demand from AI data centers for HBM is real. SK hynix is the world’s largest supplier of HBM—clearly, this logic has already been “voted for” by institutions. If you hold SK hynix or positions related to memory, what are you planning to do on Friday? #海力士ADR申购获超额认购
So reassuring—our market is about to enter a wild, explosive bull run! Based on the classic Wall Street memo-chart: We’ve already moved far beyond the “euphoria” phase (a peak around $126k in 2025). With BTC currently at about $62k after roughly a 50% pullback, and the Fear & Greed Index stuck in extreme fear (around 20), the market is in the Anxiety → N* phase (“this drop is lasting longer than expected” / “it will come back”). If the sell-off accelerates, it will head toward panic / capitulation—typical of the late stage of a bear market, with cycle lows usually forming by the end of 2026. The classic psychological effect. Not financial advice. Do you think the bull market will arrive in 2027?$BNB
Unbelievable—how much sell pressure is there on MicroStrategy’s BTC, I’ve worked it out First, put the numbers on the table. The fixed annual sale quota totals $3.25 billion (additional reserve $1.25 billion + redeeming preferred stock $1.0 billion + redeeming MSTR $1.0 billion). In addition, annual dividends and interest expenses are $1.763 billion. March/June/September/December are high-pressure months, and spending in a single month at quarter-end exceeds $230 million. When you calculate across the three scenarios: Worst case (full-year fixed quota + full-year dividends, BTC price at 60K): MicroStrategy would need to sell 83,549 BTC, which is 3.09% of the BTC circulating on exchanges; 1.86% of the combined holdings of exchanges + ETFs; and 14.41% of MicroStrategy’s own holdings. Neutral case (fixed quota + dividends for one quarter, BTC price at 60K): it would need to sell 61,512 BTC, which is 2.27% of the exchange amount. The higher the price, the fewer coins sold: for the same dollar amount, at a 90K price the worst case requires only 55,699 BTC, or 2.06% of the exchange amount. Two key takeaways: First, there’s no death spiral. The fixed quota is a budget authorization, not a price-trigger mechanism. If BTC drops, it won’t force MicroStrategy to sell more—that’s completely different from leverage liquidation. Second, the USD reserves can cover expenses through November 2027. That means in the near term, dividends aren’t paid by selling BTC; they’re paid with cash. The timing to sell BTC is chosen by MicroStrategy, not dictated by market pressure. The sell pressure is real and the market already knows it—the emotional impact has already happened. What remains is a slow release of the effects, not a sudden collapse. How long do you think the market would take to digest sell pressure of this magnitude? #比特币走低
It’s incredible—DOGE quietly closed its doors. It pledged a reduction of $2 trillion, but ultimately only delivered $215 billion. Even the case report never materialized. On July 4, 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, the DOGE website went offline without warning. The account with 5 million followers went silent, leaving only a statement: “The mission will continue.” The budget director said clearly in Congress that no closure report would be released. An organization that claimed it would bring a transparency and efficiency revolution to the government ultimately chose to provide no official summary of its 18-month term. That, by itself, is the biggest irony. The collapse of the numbers is worth recording: $2 trillion promised → revised down by $1 trillion → finally announced $215 billion. That’s one-tenth of the original target. And even that $215 billion is questionable—GAO and independent agencies can’t fully verify it. Many of the figures count projected future savings as already realized savings. The IRS estimates that DOGE-related layoffs and institutional chaos would cause more than $500 billion in lost tax revenue—more than what it “saved.” Musk himself worked for 130 days. When he left, he said, “Not too bad, but I won’t do it again.” The overlooked cost: A statistical model from the School of Public Health at Boston University shows that DOGE’s cuts to overseas aid indirectly caused about 780,000 deaths as of February 2026, mostly children. It’s an estimate—but that number never appeared in any official summary. The cybersecurity line is even harder to repair: a 19-year-old engineer obtained database access covering identity information for 500 million Americans. The former engineer claims he has a thumb drive containing NUMIDENT and the death master file, and says he has “God-level” access. These data won’t expire, and they can’t be reissued. There’s a line between efficiency and accountability. When a startup makes a mistake, investors pay the bill. When the government makes a mistake, it’s the ordinary people—those who never even had the chance to participate in the decisions from start to finish—who foot the cost. The article ends with the Ulysses mast from Homer’s epics: rational people, before temptation arrives, bind themselves with institutions. The most valuable design of DOGE may well be that self-destruction deadline written into the executive order.

Explosive: Stephen Chow transforms into a “Soccer Kid” to promote “Kung Fu Women’s Football” with a big splash. Zhang Baizhi generously supports—bookings for 18 screenings to stand firmly behind it! Stephen Chow’s directed new film “Kung Fu Women’s Football” has announced that it will be released in mainland China on the 11th, and it also revealed the complete cast lineup. The starring cast includes Golden Rooster Best Actress winner Zhang Xiafei, Dilraba, and Zhang Yixing. The special appearances feature a star-studded lineup such as Zhao Liying, Sun Zi Qi, Japan’s heartthrob Sato Takeru, Cecilia Cheung, Tsai Si-Bei, Cheung Kai-chung, Wu Yang, Jimmy O. Yang (Yang Wancheng), and more. In addition, former Chinese women’s national team players Zhao Lina and Sun Zi Qi, as well as Japan’s well-known dance troupe Avantgarde, have joined—an extravagantly impressive lineup that has left many viewers pleasantly surprised. With less than a week to go before release, promotion has naturally entered a sprint phase. As both director and screenwriter, Stephen Chow also personally took the stage this time. On his official account, he shared a promotional video in which he appears as “Soccer Kid.” In the video, he stands in front of a green screen preparing to shoot and can’t help but show off his skills. After skillfully controlling the ball, he fires a powerful shot— the football first hits the underside of the crossbar and then bounces into the goal. Even the staff member acting as the goalkeeper was startled by the speed and force of the ball, completely unable to react in time. After the video was released, it quickly garnered a large number of likes from netizens. Many commented: “Old Stephen Chow’s blade is still sharp!” and “His ball skills are still so impressive!” In the film’s poster, a female lead shows her prowess. A massive soccer ball is surrounded by raging flames. The poster also features a striking slogan: “Let the fire in my heart never go out.” Full of blood-pumping energy and passion overall, it makes people even more eager for the official release of “Kung Fu Women’s Football.” $AAPL.US #世界杯

Incredible—Cook already held Bitcoin in 2021, and Apple’s CEO has quietly been part of the crypto crowd He said at the time, “I’m very interested in Bitcoin,” and that he held it in his personal capacity—not as an Apple-company allocation. He even added this: he believes that holding cryptocurrencies is a reasonable choice to diversify one’s personal investment portfolio, but he doesn’t think Apple should put Bitcoin on its balance sheet. Given the context of 2021, this stance was very restrained—and very smart. Buy personally, not for the company. One sentence cleanly separates his own risk from the company’s: he doesn’t miss out on the asset, yet he doesn’t have to take on the pressure from Apple shareholders. Looking back now, holding it from 2021 until today—no matter where he bought in—most likely is still a net gain. But what’s even more worth thinking about is this: the CEO of the world’s highest market-cap company, at a time when Bitcoin was still widely questioned by mainstream media, had already quietly allocated it at the personal level. The actions of people like this always come earlier than what they say. Back then, when Cook allocated, so did Trump; BlackRock entered, and Charles Schwab enabled spot trading. Tie this timeline together—the sequence isn’t a coincidence. It’s a complete path for a new asset class to be gradually accepted by top-tier capital. In 2021, did you allocate to Bitcoin, or were you still waiting for “a more certain signal”? $AAPL.US #SEC将提议加密新规
Too ruthless! 2013 *Global Times* front page: Bitcoin—perfect money or a Ponzi scheme? Fifteen years later, the question hasn’t gone away, but the answer is becoming clearer. That year, BTC rose from $40 to $230, and *Global Times* thought it was important enough to merit the front page. The article was still weighing issues like “the founder’s disappearance sparked doubts” and “it’s hard for people to trust virtual money entering the market.” Now BTC is included in the official asset declarations of the U.S. president and vice president. BlackRock has issued an ETF, Charles Schwab has enabled spot trading, and the U.S. government is discussing strategic reserves. With the same asset, after 15 years you get two completely different pictures. Here’s a real pattern: in every cycle, the debate over “perfect money or a scam” reappears, and every time there are new reasons backing both sides. People in 2013 couldn’t have imagined it would rise to 20,000 in 2017. People in 2017 couldn’t have imagined it would reach 69,000 in 2021. And people in 2021 also didn’t expect institutions to move in so quickly. Voices opposing BTC never disappeared, but in the 15 years those voices were around, BTC climbed from $230 to today’s price. It’s not to say the critics are definitely wrong—it’s to say that the asset has walked all the way to today amid controversy, and that process itself is the data. If you saw this newspaper in 2013, would you buy or not? $BTC #比特币未能守住6.44万美元
