December 22 morning thoughts A new week has arrived, and the recent market has shown a typical rhythm: the day session is mainly oscillating, slowly rebounding before the U.S. market opens, and shortly after the U.S. market opens, a downward trend emerges. We still need to pay attention to this pattern this week. The current global situation is complex, with ongoing geopolitical conflicts, and risk aversion sentiment is spreading in the market. Once the situation escalates, the market may experience significant fluctuations, so it is essential to manage risk and position carefully. From a technical perspective, the daily candle for Bitcoin yesterday closed with a long upper and lower shadow, indicating fierce competition between bulls and bears in the short term; the hourly price is oscillating narrowly in the 87500-89000 range and is in a consolidation state. The hourly MACD histogram remains negative, with the DIF and DEA diverging downwards, indicating a short-term bearish bias; the RSI value is 46.4, in a neutral slightly weak area, with market sentiment stable but cautious. The price is below the EMA7, and both EMA7 and EMA30 are trending downwards, indicating a short-term bearish outlook; however, it is still operating above the EMA120, and the medium to long-term bullish structure has not been completely destroyed. Overall, recent operational suggestions are to trade within the 85000-90600 range, going long in batches at the lower edge and looking for opportunities to short at the upper edge, while strictly setting stop-losses and controlling positions to cope with potential volatility risks.

Why didn't I buy Bitcoin when it was at $60,000? Now there is no market activity at all on the weekend, $BTC is still hovering around 88K. Suddenly I remembered when it was at 120K, a bunch of people pounded their chests and said: If it drops back to 90K, I would definitely go all in. But when it really got to 90K and 80K, they started hesitating, watching, and waiting for it to go lower. Every time they missed out, the reasons were different; but every time they regretted it, the reasons were exactly the same. #比特币流动性 #美国非农数据超预期 #ETH走势分析 #加密市场观察 #BinanceABCs $BTC $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT)

Confirm! The U.S. ends quantitative easing, and the probability of a rate cut in December rises to 91%
Remember on October 29, when Powell warned that a rate cut in December was "not a certainty," the probability of a rate cut was just a pitiful 35%
In my view, this end of QT + rate cut represents a significant shift in the Federal Reserve's policy. It indicates a transition from prioritizing "inflation" to placing more importance on "employment."
The September employment report released on November 20 looks a bit bleak: 119,000 new jobs added is far below the first half of the year, and the unemployment rate has risen to 4.4%, the highest in nearly four years.
Once the Federal Reserve shakes off the burden of inflation, there is a chance for rate cuts to move into the fast lane, which is also the biggest hope for 2026...... #BinanceBlockchainWeek #加密市场回调 #美联储重启降息步伐 #ETH巨鲸增持 #美SEC推动加密创新监管 $BTC $ETH {future}(ETHUSDT)

The current fluctuation trajectory of the big pie is highly synchronized with the trend of the yen. Behind this phenomenon, the core logic stems from the transmission effect of yen arbitrage trading: Previously, Japan maintained a long-term ultra-low interest rate environment, with borrowing costs nearly zero, and a large number of institutional investors borrowed yen, exchanged it for dollars, and invested in high-risk, high-return assets like the big pie, thus establishing a typical yen arbitrage trading model.
As the Bank of Japan has begun its interest rate hike cycle, the borrowing costs of yen have significantly increased, forcing institutions to accelerate their positions—selling the big pie to convert back to dollars, and then exchanging for yen to repay debts. This has formed a linkage pattern of "yen appreciation (position closure leads to increased yen buying) → big pie facing selling pressure," making the synchronized movement of both trends quite reasonable.
This phenomenon profoundly indicates that the big pie has fully integrated into the global macro liquidity cycle, no longer being an isolated niche market, but rather becoming a "barometer" reflecting the migration of global funds. The biggest risk in the current market is the concentrated position closure of yen arbitrage trading: this type of fund is massive, and once there is a large-scale withdrawal from the big pie market, it will directly trigger sustained downward pressure.

Morning Thoughts on May 29 From the in-depth analysis of the current market trends, it can be seen that, at the daily level, the market has recently experienced severe and frequent fluctuations, which strongly reflect the fierce struggle between bulls and bears. Switching to the hourly level, the trend shows a pattern of alternating small bearish and bullish candles. This candlestick formation indicates that, in the short term, the market lacks clear directional guidance, leaning towards a state of adjustment. Moreover, based on the current market sentiment and price performance, the bearish forces are slightly in the lead, resulting in an overall weak trend.
In terms of technical indicators, the MACD indicator at the hourly level continues to operate below the zero axis, with the DIF line and DEA line showing a clear downward divergence, visually indicating that the bearish forces dominate the current market, suppressing price increases. In contrast, the MACD indicator at the daily level, although still below the zero axis, shows that the green bars are gradually shortening, which is a positive signal indicating that the downward momentum of prices is gradually weakening, and there are signs of market stabilization. Considering the above market trends and various technical indicators, I offer the following trading advice: for short-term trading during the day, I recommend that investors continue to adopt a buy low sell high strategy within the price range of 106000 to 111000 to capture opportunities during price fluctuations. From a broader direction and long-term trend perspective, I remain bullish, believing that after the current phase of consolidation, the market is expected to regain upward momentum and start a new round of rising trends.

The 'Vague Agreement' between the US and UK Ignites the Cryptocurrency Market, Trump Shouts 'Buy Stocks Now' as Bitcoin Surges Past $100,000 and Gold Reaches $3,300
After Trump announced the trade agreement with the UK, expectations for easing trade tensions drove Bitcoin to break the $100,000 mark for the first time since February, surging over 7% in the early hours of Friday, reaching $104,000 per coin; Ethereum soared over 20% during the day, breaking $2,180 per coin. The dollar's rally expanded, weakening the safe-haven demand created by fears of a global trade war, causing gold to decline. Spot gold briefly fell below the 3300 mark overnight, with a drop of nearly 2%. Following Trump's urging for investors to 'go out and buy stocks now,' the US stock market surged to intraday highs.
The ideas provided in the morning have been perfectly validated According to this trend, the bulls remain strong Students can set their positions for long orders
Morning Thoughts on May 9 After a long two months of dormancy, Ethereum has finally ushered in a strong breakout, with a single-day price increase of over 400 points. This long-awaited upward trend not only brings hope to spot traders but also provides temporary relief for those who have been stuck at high levels. From a technical perspective, the daily candlestick pattern is quite impressive, having broken through key moving averages such as EMA30, EMA60, and EMA80. Currently, it has briefly paused above EMA120 before experiencing a slight pullback, confirming the previous prediction about a corrective rally. It is advised that traders exercise caution when shorting. In the short term, today’s focus should be on two key support levels: first is the 2100 level, which, as the March high, is expected to transition from a resistance level to a support level; second is the EMA80 moving average position. However, the specific entry timing should be flexibly assessed based on the intraday pullback speed. If the market's pullback strength is weak, it may struggle to reach the aforementioned levels. The upper resistance range is concentrated around the EMA120 moving average and the 2250 price level. Once this level is effectively broken, the price may further rise to challenge the new resistance band formed by MA120 and EMA180 moving averages.
From a weekly perspective, Ethereum still faces multiple pressure tests. The current candlestick has not successfully stood above the upper Bollinger band and EMA220 moving average, and the crossover of MA180 and EMA180, along with the resonance range of EMA120 and EMA60, constitutes strong resistance. At the same time, the MACD indicator's fast and slow lines have not yet completed a golden cross pattern, indicating that the market is still in a consolidation phase. Against this backdrop, it is recommended to continue monitoring the correlation between Ethereum and Bitcoin, and to make arrangements only after the upward momentum is further confirmed for greater safety.

Xi Jinping and Russian President Putin Interview Simultaneously
At noon local time on May 8, President Xi Jinping of China and President Putin of Russia jointly met with reporters after talks at the Kremlin in Moscow. Xi Jinping pointed out that just now, I had in-depth, friendly, and fruitful talks with President Putin, reaching many new important consensuses. We jointly signed a joint statement (on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the victory of the Chinese People's Anti-Japanese War, the Great Patriotic War, and the founding of the United Nations, regarding further deepening the comprehensive strategic cooperative partnership between China and Russia in the new era), witnessing the exchange of multiple cooperation documents by relevant departments from both countries, injecting new momentum into the development of Sino-Russian relations.

Medical data firm OneMedNet latest to pursue Bitcoin reserve strategy after funding round
OneMedNet (ONMD) raised $4.6 million in a private placement late last month and used $1.8 million of that to buy Bitcoin (BTC), according to a press release.
Among the investors was Off The Chain Capital, a crypto investment fund with ties to Bloq Chairman Matthew Roszak and Fortress founder Rob Kauffman, which bought a combination of shares and warrants in ONMD.
Shares of OneMedNet have fallen more than 90% since going public via a SPAC deal late last year.
“This is an opportunity that, if done right, can outperform Bitcoin,” Brian Dixon, CEO of Off The Chain Capital, told CoinDesk. “From our perspective as investors, we’re looking for these discount or value opportunities, and we’re trying very hard to outperform Bitcoin.”
Dixon believes it’s critical for public companies to reinvest some of their cash into Bitcoin, rather than real estate, stocks or bonds, to add the most shareholder value.
“I think more and more public companies are going to realize that if you don’t have Bitcoin on your balance sheet, then you’re not being a wise fiduciary when it comes to allocating that portion of your reserve strategy,” he said.
On this point, Off the Chain and OneMedNet make similar arguments to Michael Saylor, whose stock performance has outperformed Bitcoin’s returns since the company added the cryptocurrency to its balance sheet starting in August 2020. U.S.-listed Semler Scientific and Japan’s Metaplanet are among other public companies that are pursuing similar strategies. #TON #美联储何时降息? #BTC走势分析 #加密市场反弹 #美国7月非农就业增长放缓 $BTC {spot}(BTCUSDT)
The inflation in the United States in July was largely in line with expectations, preparing the Federal Reserve for a possible interest rate cut at the upcoming mid-September meeting.
According to a report released by the U.S. government on Wednesday morning, the Consumer Price Index (CPI) rose by 0.2% in July. This is higher than the decrease of 0.1% in June but aligns with the expected 0.2%. On an annual basis, the CPI increased by 2.9%, lower than the expected 3% and June's 3%.
Core CPI (excluding food and energy costs) rose by 0.2% in July, as expected, compared to 0.1% in June. On an annual basis, the core CPI was 3.2%, consistent with the expected 3.2% and June's 3.3%.
The price of Bitcoin (BTC) continued to rise modestly to $61,200 after the release of this report that was largely in line with expectations.
Before the data release earlier today, discussions about whether the Federal Reserve would lower its benchmark federal funds rate range at the next meeting had concluded: there is currently no indication that it will remain at the current range of 5.25%-5.50%, according to data from CME FedWatch, which calculates odds based on short-term interest rate market positions. In fact, the index shows a 52.5% chance of a 50 basis point cut, and only a 47.5% chance of a 25 basis point cut.
This report is unlikely to have a significant impact on these calculations. Upcoming U.S. macroeconomic data will include initial jobless claims and retail sales reports tomorrow. Before the end of August, the Federal Reserve will hold the Jackson Hole Summit, where previous Federal Reserve chairs have sometimes announced or proposed significant policy changes.

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) saw a rebound earlier on Wednesday, followed by a sharp decline, as the U.S. stock market gave up a significant portion of its early gains and turned negative during afternoon trading.
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading at $54,800, down nearly 4% from 24 hours ago and down more than 6% from $57,600 a few hours earlier. Ethereum (ETH) performed worse, currently priced at $2,322, down 7.1% over the past day, bringing its ratio to Bitcoin down to the lowest level in over three years. The broader CoinDesk 20 index fell by 2.5%.
Trading had a strong start on Wednesday after Bank of Japan Deputy Governor Shinichi Uchida stated that the central bank would not raise borrowing costs when the market is unstable. This dovish remark led to a decline in the yen, and significant gains in the Japanese stock market and U.S. index futures. Although the Nikkei index managed to close up 1.2% and U.S. stocks opened with an increase of about 1.5%, this optimism gradually faded throughout the day.
About 90 minutes before trading ended, the Nasdaq index was down 0.8%, and the S&P 500 index was down 0.6%.
In an interview with CNBC on Wednesday, JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon expressed uncertainty about whether the Federal Reserve could successfully raise inflation to its 2% target. His concerns about inflation included deficit spending, “re-militarization,” and the transition to a green economy. Regarding the upcoming Federal Reserve interest rate cuts, Dimon stated that they are likely to happen, but he does not expect them to have a significant impact.
Semler Scientific studied MicroStrategy's success before adopting a Bitcoin strategy.
More than two years before the birth of Bitcoin, Dr. Herbert Semler served as a flight surgeon during the Korean War and later led cardiology at a hospital in Portland; he co-founded Semler Scientific (SMLR) in 2007.
Seventeen years later, the medical device manufacturer has converted most of its cash reserves into Bitcoin and plans to purchase more.
"He was very excited at the time," said company chairman Eric Semler, reflecting on his father's reaction to this new investment strategy. Eric Semler told CoinDesk that Herbert's father and Eric's grandfather, Harry Semler, believed that gold was a good investment in his day, so he would be happy to see the company invest in the 'new gold.'
