$AKE $USELESS $MARSCOIN I’m watching Bitcoin recover toward $78K, but what stands out to me isn’t just the price move — it’s where the strength is coming from.
BTC is up around 0.76% since midnight as a weaker dollar gives risk assets some breathing room. But the more interesting part is happening in altcoins, especially PONS and ARB, which are extending the Robinhood Chain narrative.
PONS is up over 30% in 24 hours and more than 300% this week. What catches my attention is its revenue model: around 80% of protocol revenue is reportedly used to buy back and burn PONS. That creates a much clearer value-accrual story than simply riding a trending narrative.
ARB is also showing unusual strength, with open interest reaching a record level while trading volume remains massively elevated. That tells me this isn’t purely a spot-driven move — derivatives traders are increasingly participating too.
At the same time, BTC and ETH positioning remains relatively light, volatility is calm, and higher-strike BTC calls around $82K and $84K are leading options activity.
The key takeaway for me: “Bitcoin’s recovery looks healthy, but the real momentum is currently shifting toward specific narratives and tokens with stronger underlying catalysts.” If BTC holds $78K, I’ll be watching whether this altcoin rotation accelerates or fades quickly.
$AKE gonna pump more recently with high performance showing buyers are in strong control on market but still you will see short pump more so be patient and take long from here
Big move from Russia’s biggest bank 🚨 $BTR $UAI $TUT It now plans to accept Bitcoin and Ethereum as loan collateral.
The bank says this is part of its push to bring cryptocurrencies into its financial products. Accepting BTC and ETH would allow customers to use major digital assets to secure loans.
This could reshape how some clients access credit and signals growing mainstream interest in crypto from traditional banks.
What would you do if you could borrow against your crypto? 👀

Bitcoin withstands $90 oil and rising yields while gold slides. A firm dollar is the catch
$BTR $SKR $KORU I’m seeing BTC trade choppy as $90 oil and rising bond yields weigh on stocks and gold. I think the headwinds hitting bitcoin aren’t landing, even as they inflict damage on major traditional assets. That relative strength, however, may still get challenged by the resilient Dollar Index. Futures tied to WTI oil have topped $90 and are up nearly 9% for the week, as of this writing, according to data from TradingView. A higher oil price means more inflation and less room for the Fed to cut interest rates. Longer-duration government bond yields across the advanced world continue to surge on fiscal concerns. The U.S. 10-year yield, which influences borrowing costs in the economy, has jumped 10 basis points to 4.81%, the highest since 2023. This can cause financial tightening, disincentivizing risk-taking in the economy and in financial markets. Both developments are causing jitters in stock markets. Wall Street’s S&P 500 index fell for the third straight trading day on Monday, reaching a four-week low. Asian stocks are bleeding as of this writing, as the oil rally poses macro risks to energy-importing nations. Gold, too, has come off sharply from $4,700 per ounce to $4,300 per ounce in less than a week. I’m also noting that bitcoin remains steady. The follow-through to Friday’s 3% drop to just under $77,000 has been tepid at best, leaving prices choppy between $76,000 and $80,000, data from CoinDesk show. “A market that holds up in the face of headwinds is telling you it’s bullish.” I interpret this as one possible sign that rising bond yields are the result of fiscal concerns, not economic growth, and are hence boosting demand for hard assets like bitcoin that fall outside the fiat financial system. Whatever the case, I see BTC’s price action as offering hope to bulls. Still, it’s not without some challenge, and that’s coming from the Dollar Index (DXY), which is looking to extend last week’s nearly 1% gain to 99.67. When I look closer at the DXY price chart, I see the index hovering close to a pivotal bullish trendline from the 2011 lows. A bounce from this support could galvanize more demand for the greenback. Historically, BTC has had an inverse relationship with the dollar. “Trendlines are widely watched, and that attention makes them self-fulfilling.” Because so many traders draw the same diagonal support and resistance levels on their charts, those lines become reference points for entries, exits, and stop-losses. When price approaches a trendline, the collective reaction buying near support, selling near resistance often pushes the market in the expected direction, reinforcing the line’s validity.
“Mostly just a router, a slow one” 😂😂 That line is GOLD. No formalities, just straight to the point. 🫡🔥

Communication Tips by CZ (Sept 2026)
Don’t be polite. Be efficient. Get to the point. I hate formalities. I don’t chit chat. You won’t get a response if you say: "Hi", "How are you?" "Good day to you sir!” (waiting for a response)“Merry Xmas, Happy New Year, Happy Birthday, etc”“Can we have a meeting?” (no agenda given)“Let’s discuss an important partnership” (no specifics)“Want to introduce you to XYZ (someone important)” (no specifics)
You may be referred to this article. I am efficient with my time, even if you may consider it impolite (apologies). So, please be direct and tell me, in ONE message (not multiple): I am ___. I need ___ (or) I can provide ___. If your first message is too long (more than one mobile screen with large fonts for an elderly like me), it will likely be skipped. A few tips: For project pitches, go to www.yzilabs.com For listings, apply online at www.binance.com For buying/selling large amounts of crypto, please contact Binance OTC desk.Don’t ask open ended questions, I usually won’t know the answer.Don’t ask me to interact with some meme coin. For most things, going through me is slower. I don’t do much. I am mostly just a router, a slow one. Hope you are not offended. Let’s communicate efficiently. Cheers, CZ
Life can be heavy sometimes. 🌿 When you’re tired, don’t call it the end—give your soul some peace. And remember, taking care of yourself is not selfish. 🤍
Michael Saylor Hints at Strategy’s First Bitcoin Buy in Two Months
$SKR $ZKC $BTC I’m watching Bitcoin push back toward $79,000, and one line from Michael Saylor caught my attention: “We’re Back.” That post appears to hint that Strategy could be preparing for its first Bitcoin purchase since June 22, after nearly two months without a fresh BTC accumulation. Bitcoin has recovered from Friday’s low, gaining almost 1% over the past 24 hours and more than 2.5% from the recent bottom. At the same time, Bitcoin dominance has climbed back above 60%, while Strategy’s valuation continues to expand. What makes this interesting is the shift in Strategy’s capital strategy. After selling some Bitcoin-related assets in recent months to strengthen its balance sheet, the company has now paused those sales and has been using MSTR share sales to build U.S. dollar reserves while also buying back its preferred stock. With Strategy now holding almost four years of preferred-dividend coverage, the next capital raised could increasingly be directed toward two priorities: buying more Bitcoin and continuing STRC buybacks. To me, Saylor’s “We’re Back” is more than just a post. If it confirms a new BTC purchase, it could signal that Strategy is returning to the accumulation strategy that made it one of the market’s biggest institutional Bitcoin buyers. #MichaelSaylor #bitcoin
