Lately I've been watching $OKB closely Fluctuating around 100 USD I think it's undervalued Why do I think it's underved The total supply is permanently capped at 21 million tokens, just like $BTC Last year there was a one-time burn of over 65 million tokens, which is an irreversible fact More importantly, the demand side is changing OKB is no longer just a "platform token discount coupon" It is the Gas for X Layer It is the staking threshold for the Exchange OS deployment market Every new market locks up another batch of OKB Supply locked down × demand rising This combination is not fully priced in at the current price level Why I am starting to build a position now It has dropped about 69% from the all-time high of 258 Market sentiment is still in the fear zone I'm not going all in Building a base position first, and will add more depending on the Q3 rollout of Exchange OS ⚠️ Personal operation record, not investment advice X Layer's TVL is still very small, whether the narrative can be realized depends on the data But I'm willing to use a small portion of my position To bet on "the market hasn't priced it correctly yet"

Woke up from a sleep and found that the long position on $BTC hasn't been liquidated yet I'm already quite satisfied, even though the rebound is weak At least it's still alive Starting today, I'll begin dollar-cost averaging to buy $CORE and $CFX again Not buying a lot, just a little every day to lower the cost basis Even if everything goes to zero, it won't affect my life Keeping it within what I can afford Being a patient and calm holder Let's all keep it up

Right now in the crypto world, good news for the US stock market is bad news for it, and bad news for the US stock market is a black swan event for it. The crypto world is terrifying—what kind of news can actually stimulate it? CPI and PPI have been released consecutively, and the signals of cooling inflation are clear enough. July CPI year-over-year is 3.4%, core CPI 2.5%, all right on target. PPI month-over-month is flat, year-over-year dropped from 5.5% to 4.7%. According to the classic script, the probability of a rate hike should decrease, and risk assets should rise. CME data confirms this—the probability of a rate hike in September dropped from 40% to 32%. But the market has split. In the crypto world, Bitcoin $BTC is still hovering around 64,000, now almost like a stablecoin. It surged a bit before the news was released, but as soon as the news came out, it immediately fell flat. What about Ethereum? $ETH has been fluctuating between 1,870 and 1,890. It spiked briefly after the data but then faded. Over 60,000 people were liquidated in the past 24 hours, ETF funds haven’t flowed back, and 1,900 has become a short-term ceiling for ETH. On the US stock side, it’s a completely different story. SanDisk jumped 10% to 1,550, and SK Hynix rose over 7%. Same data, two worlds. This can’t be explained by economics. Inside the Federal Reserve, there’s a big fight—Harker calls for a rate hike, Kaplan says wait and see. On the surface, it’s a data disagreement, but behind it are two political forces arm-wrestling. Whether to hike in September depends only half on economic data. Crypto is stuck in an awkward position. Inflation has cooled, the probability of a rate hike has dropped, so it should rise, but funds aren’t moving. Because the market wants "rate cuts," not "no rate hikes." No rate hike just stops the bleeding; rate cuts are the transfusion. ETH has been stuck around 1,900 for almost two weeks; it gets slammed when it tries to go up—a typical wait-for-catalyst scenario. Once rate cut expectations shift from "whether to hike" to "when to cut," ETH’s elasticity will be much stronger than BTC’s, and a drop in staking yields will directly push up the ETH/BTC exchange rate. SanDisk $SNDK rose 10%, apparently due to AI, but behind it is the expectation of chip production capacity shifting due to the chip bill. The crypto world is still stuck in liquidity narratives, while US stocks are already trading politics. My strategy: don’t chase BTC above 64,000, buy on dips around 63,000; slowly accumulate ETH below 1,850, don’t chase above 1,900. Wait for the political cards to be played out, then liquidity will shift. #CPI与PPI同步降温，加息分歧扩大

$CORE I saw someone saying that if this thing rises by dozens or hundreds of times years later, the things I said will be heavily criticized. What I want to emphasize is that even if it rises in the future, it doesn't mean much. If it rises, that is also a very normal thing; even a vapor coin has a chance to rise. However, objectively speaking, this thing has already dropped by hundreds of times, and the facts prove that what the project team said and did completely do not match the factual logic. May I ask, have all the things he said been implemented one by one? Even if not implemented, if it rises by dozens or hundreds of times, can it prove that painting a rosy picture is also a successful method? Is there any problem with the logic I am expressing now?

Bitcoin Short-Term Trading Strategy $BTC current price is around $63,400, with an intraday high of $63,918 and a low of $62,822. It is still within the large volatile range of $62K–66K, and the short-term direction is unclear. US inflation data is relatively mild, but BTC's positive response is moderate, indicating that buying strength is not yet strong. Resistance: $63,900–64,200 After breaking through and stabilizing, look towards $64,800–65,000. Support: $63,000–62,800 If it breaks below, watch $62,500 → $62,000. $62,500 is also an important mid-term defense level currently. Trading Ideas Hold above $64,000, with a pullback that does not break it → bullish bias Break below $62,800, with a failed rebound → bearish bias Currently, $63,400 is right in the middle of the range. I prefer to wait for the price to reach either side before making a choice, rather than chasing the middle. This is only a personal market observation and does not constitute investment advice.

$ETH The SEC cancelled its August 14 meeting on "Regulation Crypto," delaying a vote on a new framework for digital assets. This heightens short-term regulatory uncertainty, putting mild bearish pressure on ETH and the broader market while they sit at weak support levels. However, this is just a schedule change—not an outright policy rejection—so it avoids a long-term regulatory shock. It will remain in the resistance zone for quite some time.

Today's $SNDK finally let out the breath it had been holding. A few days ago, when I looked at SanDisk's earnings report, I was honestly a bit stunned. Quarterly revenue was $8.97 billion, a 51% sequential increase; gross margin reached 84.6%, and the data center business doubled, yet the stock price still took a hit after the report came out. My initial feeling was: if this isn't satisfying, what exactly does the market want? Later I realized, what everyone worries about isn't whether SanDisk made money this quarter, but whether the money earned now can be sustained. After all, the storage industry has been too cyclical before—when prices rise, everyone acts like a stock genius, but once capacity comes online, profits can just disappear. So what was truly useful at today's investor day wasn't management repeating "AI" over and over, but that they started answering a more practical question: How can SanDisk stop being just a cyclical stock? Currently, the company has signed new long-term agreements with 8 customers, covering about 50% of shipments expected in fiscal 2027 and about two-thirds in fiscal 2028. Simply put, this means locking in some demand and prices in advance to avoid the "feast one year, famine the next" scenario. More directly, management's targets for fiscal 2028 to 2030 include about 80% non-GAAP gross margin and about 50% adjusted free cash flow margin, and they stated that after completing necessary investments, they plan to return all remaining cash to shareholders. Seeing this, I roughly understand why the market was willing to buy in today. In the past, when people thought of $SNDK, they thought of NAND price increases; now the company wants everyone to believe it’s selling not just storage chips, but the "data warehouse" increasingly needed by AI data centers. Of course, I still dare not shout about the stars and the sea just yet. Long-term goals are still just goals; whether HBF can truly be implemented, whether long-term contracts can sustain profits, and how much gross margin remains after NAND prices fall all need to be verified quarter by quarter in future earnings reports. But at least today, $SNDK showed the market a bit of change: It may still be a cyclical stock, but behind this cycle is an AI engine that keeps generating data nonstop. Compute power makes AI think; storage makes AI remember. People used to only focus on the former; now finally someone is seriously looking at the latter. $SNDK #美股全线走高，加密股领涨 #存储股抛压缓和，AI内存牛市还稳吗？ #海力士推进NAND扩产，存储供给预期上升

$OFC Don't fool yourself, this thing is not about the Hormuz theme at all, it's purely riding geopolitical sentiment to scam chatter. With 2 million U in circulation, it looks like a "light market easy pull," but in reality, it's dead liquidity—depth is so thin that a few tens of thousands of dollars can create a big dip. The project team hasn't made a market or created a narrative to sustain it; the World Cup hype has long since cooled off. Holding for half a month without a rise isn't a shakeout, it's that no one is buying. This kind of SportsFi fringe coin, 99% of the time, ends with a slow decline to zero before being delisted. Listen to this: small market cap ≠ guaranteed explosion; without new money coming in, what you put in is just someone else's exit liquidity. While there's still some life left, switch to mainstream coins; don't use the hard-earned money you made from BTC/ETH to keep it alive.
