Quantum Fintech founder and Chinese-overseas crypto bigwig Ye Junde (Harry Yeh), 40, fell to his death from an apartment on the 30th floor in Asunción, the capital of Paraguay. The front door at the scene was left wide open, the interior was in disarray, and there were no obvious defensive injuries on the body. Police have not yet ruled out whether it was an accident, suicide, or homicide.
Even more bizarrely, before his death he had repeatedly appeared nude in public areas. There were also handwritten notes, stones, and handprints on the windows left at the scene—everything seemed confusing and hard to make sense of.
As for the huge amount of encrypted assets he left behind: if some private keys are known only to him, those assets may become permanently unusable; meanwhile, the company’s control and how his estate is attributed may also very likely trigger further legal disputes.
The truth of the case still awaits the investigation’s results, but this incident has led many people to remark again: wealth should not be displayed publicly. It’s not just an old saying. When one’s wealth reaches a certain level, excessive exposure can hardly avoid attracting covetousness and risk.
Whatever the final outcome—whether it was truly an accident or there is something else behind it—staying low-key and putting safety first may be the greatest kind of wealth.
This market lately has really been wearing people out.
If it rises a bit, it gets pressed down. If it dips a bit, someone comes in and pulls it back. The hardest part isn’t the crash—it’s this kind of repeated, back-and-forth oscillation.
A lot of people break their mindset in this sort of market: staring at the chart all day, trading constantly, and in the end they don’t capture much profit—while they end up paying plenty in fees.
In a choppy market, it’s not about who’s fastest. It’s about who can hold their nerve.
When you don’t understand what’s going on, move less. Don’t let a few candlesticks lead you around.
The market won’t stay sideways forever. When real opportunities arrive, patient people are often the ones who benefit most.
I find Williams’ speech this time quite interesting.
On one hand, he says he remains confident that inflation will fall; on the other, he stresses that if the data deviates from the target, the Fed will act decisively.
In other words, it’s like: “Right now they don’t want to make things chaotic, but the tools in hand haven’t been put down yet.”
I’m focused on three points.
First, inflation hasn’t actually been fully resolved. The New York Fed chair’s position carries significant weight, and he admits that there is still a clear gap to the 2% goal.
Second, the Fed isn’t monolithic internally. Some officials are already calling for further rate hikes, which shows there are still disagreements in the market about the direction of subsequent policy.
Third, there are too many uncertainties right now. Energy, geopolitical conflicts, and changes in demand driven by AI investment could all affect the assessments ahead.
My understanding is that the Fed is essentially walking a tightrope right now.
They don’t want to tighten too early and hurt the economy, but they also can’t easily relax and risk letting inflation rise again.
So at this stage, I think it’s best not to put too much faith in a single piece of news to drive everything.
Before the data is fully confirmed, the market may keep oscillating. Controlling positioning matters more than trying to guess the direction. #FederalReserveRateCutsCycle
Recently keep an eye on a few key time points (personal advice)
On September 16, the Federal Reserve will announce its policy decision. Market expectations for further rate hikes are picking up again. In the meantime, there are also two key data releases: August 7’s unemployment rate and August 12’s CPI. If any of them comes in above expectations, it could sway market sentiment.
This isn’t bearish—it's just that the risk-reward ratio doesn’t look that favorable. The closer the market is to key moments, the more likely it is to keep slicing through positions and then reversing.
If this crypto market correction cycle hasn’t finished yet, there may still be one more opportunity between August and October. The truly good spots usually don’t appear when everyone is the most excited.
A lot of trading comes down to whether you can wait for your own opportunity.
Looking back at my own three years ago, I was definitely pretty immature.
Back then, I thought that by reading a few articles and learning how to read candlestick charts, I’d already tapped into the workings of the market. At one point, I even thought I had understood the market.
Now, looking back, I realize that many times I was simply standing at the right spot when the winds were favorable.
After going through a full bull–bear cycle, losing money and also making money, I slowly came to understand: there is no such thing as “graduating” in crypto.
The market keeps changing, the narratives change, and the playbooks change too. Using experience from a few years ago to deal with today’s market is often just using an old map to search for a new continent.
The biggest takeaway from the past few years isn’t learning how to predict price swings—it’s knowing that there’s still so much I don’t know.
What I used to think I understood has many gaps when I look back; what I used to think couldn’t happen has happened one by one.
So now I’m more willing to keep learning and to stay in awe.
The market won’t reward people who think they already understand—it only rewards those who continually update their mindset. #South Korean stock market sets a record intraday surge of 17%
Looking back at the crypto world over the past two years, the biggest feeling I have is: it’s gotten quiet and desolate.
In the past, there were newcomers everywhere, hot money everywhere, and all kinds of “get rich” stories. Now, most of what’s left are basically familiar faces.
That decline last year wasn’t a real crash in terms of prices, but the sentiment was already cool. A lot of people exited, and those who remain are just waiting for the next opportunity.
In the future, there are really only two directions: either a new narrative emerges and capital comes back; or AI continues to siphon attention, and the crypto space stays dormant for a few more years.
What I care about most is whether, when the next bull market returns, crypto can still deliver new value.
What we can do now is simply survive and keep some “ammunition.”
Opportunities won’t disappear, but many people will fall before the opportunities arrive.
Sun Yuchen once said something: “Investments under 500,000 won’t mean much for the purpose of life.”
At first, it sounded a bit exaggerated, but later I realized he wasn’t talking about the amount—it was about the input-to-output ratio.
If you invest 50,000 in principal and double it, making 50,000 profit, you may feel happy for a while, but it won’t change too much.
But to chase that 50,000, you might end up staring at the market every day, letting your emotions rise and fall with it. After years, you may not have made much money, yet you’ve burned a lot of time and energy.
In many cases, what small capital should invest in most isn’t the market—it’s yourself.
Improve your skills, increase your income, and build up your principal. That’s more important than constantly researching the next chance to double your money.
Once your principal and your understanding are both built up, investing becomes truly about making money from money.
Don’t trade a few years of your youth for just one small fluctuation #美联储9月加息概率升至约82%
On the subway, the guy next to me had his phone screen glowing a vivid green. I glanced at it—wow—his watchlist was longer than my life. At a street-side snack stall eating fried rice noodles, two people at the next table were chatting about positions: adding to the position, pressure levels—sounding so confident. I almost thought I’d stumbled into some kind of private fund dinner.
The most ridiculous part is scrolling Douyin—out of every ten videos, five are somehow related to stocks. Sure, there are genuine analyses too, but there are also some accounts that use “stocks” as a banner to do other things. I clicked in and after three seconds I couldn’t even tell what the ticker/code was.
My biggest confusion right now is: are there still people around me who don’t touch stocks at all?
There are—but there are two types. One is someone who’s never played before. No matter what you say, they can’t keep up; the look they give you is like you’re a gambler. The other is someone who used to play, got completely burned, and now—no matter how hot the market is—they’re still indifferent. Occasionally they’ll say something, and it’s all just lies.
Which kind am I? Hard to say, but I do feel that the number of people around me talking about stocks is more than double what it was a few years ago.
While others play the World Cup chasing the Golden Boot or the championship, he brought back the World Cup’s first meme king and a bunch of emoji memes with him 😂
On the pitch, he’s ruthless—defenders find it a headache, goalkeepers sigh, and with seven goals he directly rewrote Norway’s all-time team record.
Off the pitch, he’s hilarious—stealing sips from the keeper’s water, then filming people who filmed him, too; and when netizens turn him into memes, he doesn’t get angry at all—he even jumps in personally to like and interact.
The most absurd part is that he has a face that looks unapproachable, yet he’s doing all the things that netizens have “possessed” him to do.
You think he’s a cold superstar, but it turns out he’s even more fun than the comments section.
That’s why people like Haaland—not only because he scores, but because he has zero idol baggage.
On the field, he’s there to provide goals; off the field, he’s there to deliver meme-worthy content.
With a player like that, even after he goes home, the trending searches will probably stay up for a few more days.
Many people in the community discuss “rolling over positions.” In fact, it’s just one sentence: If a small amount of capital wants to grow big, you basically can’t get around this road.
It’s not that rolling over is so magical; compared with constantly fiddling with short-term trades every day, it’s more about—catching a big wave in one go + managing your position size well.
If the direction is right, add gradually; if the direction is wrong, the loss is still within a controllable range, so you won’t get wiped out in one shot.
The core comes down to three points: wait for opportunities, start with a light position, and add as the trend unfolds. It’s not about trading every day; it’s about waiting for those obvious trend start points—like after a brutal selloff when stabilization and reversal kick in—then ride it all the way.
Many people misunderstand the risk. Actually, what really blows up is opening positions randomly and betting heavily on a direction, not rolling over itself.
But the prerequisite is also clear: this is a play that uses small positions to test and iterate—not a full send (all-in). Let money be the best profit, and don’t put all your principal in.
In the end, what trading comes down to is whether you can get your position size right during a small number of key opportunities.
Anyone who's been through a few rounds of big volatility knows: a bull market looks great, but a bear market is more real.
A major drawdown can wipe out years of gains, so many folks get used to being conservative, sitting on cash, and waiting it out.
The problem is, while you're waiting, the market might just take off. You think it will retrace, but it keeps hitting new highs. You want to wait for a better entry, and before you know it, all that's left are higher prices.
The real challenge is finding a balance between fear and the desire to make a profit.
Today, a new buddy from the community DM'd me: What’s this new coin A8? Is it an airdrop? Why's everyone talking about it?
I almost spit my drink on the screen.
Bro, that’s not just a coin, it’s a wealth code.
A = Asset Digits = the number of zeros in your assets. A8 = ten million in assets (8 zeros) A9 = over a hundred million A10 = over a billion Going beyond that is like chasing a dragon you can't see 😂
This lingo originally came from the property trading circle (those big shots in the reservoir forum). Instead of directly asking how much you have, they use A+ number of digits to subtly flex their wealth.
Then it spread to the crypto scene, Xueqiu, Xiaohongshu, and became a semi-public ranking joke.
So next time you see someone say they’re A8 looking for guidance, they’re not calling a trade, they’re showing their bag.
As for me, always AA when I'm out, I patiently explained to the big shot: How many A's do you all have? Drop it in the comments, let me see 👀
Spending two billion to go to space, only to return and remain silent for three days. Sun Yuchen's experience has been interpreted by many as having witnessed some cosmic secret.
But the truth may be simpler and more shocking. From space, looking at Earth, it is not a rush of blood, but a sudden calm. A blue planet hangs in the darkness, without borders, without disputes, beautiful yet fragile.
Astronauts call this experience the overview effect. It is not an enlightenment of truth, but a gentle reset of perception. What you thought was important suddenly shrinks, while what you overlooked becomes clear.
Many people experience temporary speechlessness upon returning. It is not an act of profundity, but a shift in perspective pulled to a cosmic scale, and returning to daily life inevitably brings a sense of disparity. It's like coming back from the wilderness to a room; you need to adjust.
Perhaps this is where space truly changes a person. It does not allow you to escape from the human world, It simply makes you cherish this quiet, glowing planet beneath your feet.
When a bull market comes, it's a lie to say you're not excited. I've chased rises and experienced FOMO before, and the result is classic— the faster you rush, the higher you stand, the stronger the wind.
When BTC fluctuates, I used to think randomly: Is it over? Am I being tricked into the market again? Later I realized that the market is actually fluctuating most of the time; stability is the norm, yet I always want to prove how smart I am when it shakes.
I truly started making money when I pulled back. I don't randomly switch tracks, and I don't scatter my positions everywhere; I only focus on one or two directions. If I can eat, I eat; if I can't, then forget it.
Now I don't chase rankings, nor do I add drama. Strategy is in front, and positions are in hand. The market will come back repeatedly, but if the principal is gone, then you're really offline.
This map of life, to put it simply, is just a super long K-line.
When you reach a high point, don't get carried away. Take your profits as needed and set a stop-loss for yourself. The moment you start to think "I'm invincible," is often the prelude to a pullback.
Don't rush to doubt yourself when you're hit to the bottom. During a sluggish market, no one has it easy. The positions you hold and accumulate now will be the foundation for future rebounds.
The hardest part is the sideways market. Neither up nor down, your emotions are worn down bit by bit. But the true players often quietly accumulate chips during this time. Those who can endure the boredom will be able to wait for the main upward trend.
After the significant drop yesterday, the market has entered a period of low-level fluctuations. The short-term moving averages are showing clear resistance, and the overall sentiment is cautious.
The MACD green bars are shortening, indicating weakening bearish momentum; the RSI is neutral to weak, not showing oversold conditions. The trading volume is declining, with funds mainly on the sidelines.
If the short-term moving averages are broken, a rebound is expected; otherwise, it may continue to seek a bottom. Like + Follow 🧧🧧 continuously
