How much did WLFI actually print? 👀

yesterday everyone was joking about the whole Trump crypto circus…
today it’s starting to look like a full-on business model
let’s break it down 👇

➥ first red flag

during the WLFI presale, key people were listed as Co-Founders
sale ends → suddenly titles change:
co-founder → chief crypto advocate
co-founder → web3 ambassador
…and then?
they just disappear from the website
clean exit energy.

➥ now the real move

WLFI basically built on top of Dolomite (via advisor Corey Caplan)
then did something interesting:

• deposited ~$400M of their own $WLFI as collateral
• borrowed real demand assets like USDC
translation:
instead of dumping tokens on market (and nuking price)
they loop it into lending and extract liquidity
smart? yes
safe? debatable

➥ problem

more than half of the stable liquidity got pulled
users now limited to:
• ~$32M USD1 (FCFS)
• ~$12M USDC
not exactly DeFi “freedom”

➥ community split

side 1:
“trust the process, nothing will get liquidated”
(usually anon accounts, you know the type)
side 2:
actual builders + analysts raising concerns about user funds
(comparisons to past disasters already floating around)

➥ but zoom out…
this wasn’t random
this is a stacked revenue machine:

• $WLFI presale → ~$550M raised
• $USD1 stablecoin → ~$100M–150M/year revenue
• TRUMP token → ~$800M extracted (rumored)
• MELANIA token → ~$100M+
• NFTs → millions + ongoing fees
and that’s not even counting everything still held

➥ bottom line

this isn’t just crypto
this is politics + branding + DeFi liquidity engineering
and like it or not…
it’s working
the real question:
are you early to the system…
or exit liquidity for it?

$BTC just did something most people didn’t even notice… and that’s the setup 👇

While headlines were screaming about geopolitics, price stayed flat above 73K.

No panic. No breakdown. Just pressure building.

➥ What the data is saying:

• $430M shorts already wiped
• Long/short ratio dropped to 0.76 → majority still short
• Open interest rising (98.2K BTC) while spot barely moves
• Funding negative (-0.0074%) → market paying you to be long

That combo? Not normal.

➥ Translation:
Positioning is getting crowded
Volatility is compressing
Retail is leaning the wrong way again
Meanwhile… on-chain shows seller exhaustion.
Losses cooling off. Accumulation quietly picking up.

➥ Key levels right now:

72.5K → support (lose this = setup invalid)
73.4K → resistance (daily close above = short squeeze trigger)

Break 73.4K → liquidity sits at 74–74.5K
Lose 72.5K → fast move into 71K zone

➥ My take:

This isn’t a breakout call.
This is a warning.

Flat price + crowded shorts + negative funding + exhausted sellers =
historically not a good place to bet against $BTC blindly.

Most people still waiting for “better entry”…
and that’s exactly why price hasn’t dropped.

NFA. DYOR.

$ETH is finally lifting its head. +3.01% to $2,240, tagging $2,254 at the high — still 12% below the $2,500 magnet every desk is watching.

The valuation tell: ETH on-chain metrics just printed levels not seen since the 2022 bottom zone. Priced for the apocalypse while BTC trades a stone's throw from all-time highs. The ETH/BTC dislocation is the widest it has been this cycle — and historically, mean reversion on that spread doesn't arrive quietly.

Perps picture: OI parked at 2.31M ETH, funding basically flat (+0.002%), retail L/S ratio 1.37 — longs are already crowded before the move has confirmed. That is the risk. Crowded longs into a laggard bounce get liquidated into the ground on the first 5% flush.
Trigger: daily reclaim of $2,254 opens the $2.35K–$2.5K air pocket. Loss of $2,169 and we're re-testing sub-$2.2K lows instead.
This isn't the trade that screams. It's the one that whispers — right up until it doesn't.

NFA.

$BTC third rejection at $73K is starting to look less like weakness and more like setup.
Tape: +2.69% on the day, high $73,155, low $70,929. Spot bid from BlackRock IBIT (+$269M, best inflow day since early March) into a cool core CPI print (+0.2% MoM). Here's the part nobody's pricing: funding on Binance perps sits NEGATIVE while BTC presses highs. Retail long/short ratio at 0.85 — shorts outnumber longs on a tape that's up nearly 3%. A rally with a net-short book is exactly how squeeze fuel builds.
Counter: old whales offloaded $271M this week and we're still below the $73K line.

Three swings, zero daily close above. Bulls need a clean daily >$73.2K to flip this from "triple top" into "ascending base."
Game plan: $70.9K is invalidation, $73.2K is the trigger. Until one breaks, this is a range — not a thesis. The guys leaning short here are the exit liquidity if it pops.
NFA. Stay frosty.

$BTC just flipped the script… and most people missed it

While everyone was waiting for a deeper pullback,
Bitcoin quietly reclaimed 70K+ and didn’t look back.

No panic.
No hesitation.
Just clean strength.

➥ What’s happening right now:

$BTC holding strong above key levels

dips getting bought instantly
no real fear in the market
whales clearly not selling

This is not how tops look.
This is how markets behave
before the next expansion move.

➥ Important detail:

Market still not euphoric.
People still waiting for “better entry”.
And that’s exactly why price keeps going higher.
➥ My take:

As long as $BTC holds this zone,
any dip is just an opportunity — not a reversal.

Sooner or later,
we’ll get that one candle…

And suddenly everyone will remember
why they were bullish.

📊 Charts below 👇

Are you already in…
or still waiting for the “perfect entry”? 👀

#BTC #Bitcoin #Crypto #Trading #Degen #BinanceSquare

$BTC just refuses to die… and that’s the signal 👀

Been watching
Bitcoin hovering like it’s bored… but it’s not.

While everyone waiting for a “perfect entry”
whales already stacking in silence.

➥ What I’m seeing right now:

$BTC holding key zones like nothing happened
dips getting eaten instantly
funding not overheated → still room to move
retail still scared = fuel not used yet

This doesn’t feel like top.
This feels like compression before expansion.
And you know how it ends…
one candle and everyone FOMOs back in.

➥ My take:

If $BTC breaks higher →
we’re not talking about small moves anymore.

We’re talking about

“you should’ve bought when it was boring” phase.

$BTC right now feels like a trap… and most people don’t see it.
Price is stuck around $66K–$68K.

No breakout. No panic. Just slow compression.

But here’s what’s really happening 👇

– Q1 was the worst in years (-20%+)
– Short-term holders are exiting
– Huge liquidation cluster sits around $64K
– Resistance still holding at $69K

This is NOT a trending market.
This is a decision zone.

👉 Either:
• sweep liquidity below $64K
• or break $70K and send to $75K+

Institutions are quietly accumulating again
(ETF inflows just turned positive)
Retail? Still confused.

And that’s exactly when big moves happen.

📊 My take:

Market is coiling.
Volatility is coming.
The only question is direction.

Drop your bias below 👇
Bull or Bear?

$BTC is boring again… 👀

No hype.
No volume.
No retail.

Perfect.

Smart money buys here.
Not after breakout.

Charts don’t lie 👇

While you scroll:

• $BTC leaving exchanges
• ETFs still buying
• Long-term holders stacking
• Volatility compressed

This is not the move.
This is the setup.

By the time $BTC trends again —
it’s already too late.

Are you positioned or waiting? 👇

📉 Everyone is sleeping on $ETH … and that’s exactly why it’s interesting.
$ETH is sitting around $2,100
— down over 50% from its highs
— while all the attention is still on BTC

Sounds bearish?

Look closer:

→ ETF flows are inconsistent — inflows, then outflows
→ Institutions aren’t aggressive (yet)
→ Macro pressure is still weighing on the market
Now the flip side:

→ ETH is holding the $2,000 level (key support)
→ Inflows are starting to return after recent outflows
→ Institutional money is slow… but sticky

And here’s what most people miss:

ETH is not just a “store of value”
ETH is the infrastructure of Web3
💡 The takeaway:

When the market ignores an asset —
it’s usually not the end… it’s accumulation.

$ETH right now looks:
→ undervalued
→ overlooked
→ but not broken
🎯 Trigger:
If $ETH holds $2K and capital flows return →
$2.5K–$3K becomes the next logical target

🧠 Final thought:
BTC is the narrative
ETH is the foundation

And markets always return to fundamentals.

📉 $BTC is holding around $66,800 — and here’s why that’s interesting

March became the first green month for Bitcoin in six months. Just +1.8%, but after five months of decline from $126,000 — that’s an important signal.

Why the pressure now?

→ Conflict in the Middle East is weighing on risk assets

→ Oil surged to $120 — increasing inflation and reducing hopes for rate cuts

→ Fear & Greed Index: 9/100 — extreme fear

But there’s another side:

→ Institutions continue holding Bitcoin through ETFs even during the dip

→ April is historically one of the strongest months for $BTC

→ Key support at $66,000 is still holding

Simple takeaway for beginners: when everyone is scared, smart money usually prepares — not panics. Watch the $67,000 level — if $BTC C holds above it, the next target is $70,000.

Will BTC break through $70,000 in April?

Top 15 wallets in Neiro CTOs are sitting on $32M of profit
Another shield show was arranged by Binance - pouring “on the appeals of concerned citizens” memcoin - a client of market maker Gotbit with capitalization of $10M.

This is the 4th token Neiro - a token in honor of the new dog owner of the Dogecoin coin's prototype dog.

The reason for today's bump was a message from a Binance funder - where she wrote that Binance has started to listen to the community (or did a market maker whisper in her ear?).
So they decided to flood another token Neiro, which supposedly has a good token distribution.

Truth is - the top 15 wallets have $32M in unrealized profits, which are probably already hedged via futures.

When will this Neiro burst? Let's look at the path of another Neiro (0 -> $320M -> listing on Bybit -> $22M -> $170M -> listing on Binance -> listing another Neiro on Binance -> $70M).

One is left to wonder if anyone brave enough to bet money on this.

Punk Monkey was bought out for 10 ETH with a minimum valuation of 600 ETH, as it were

In 2021, one of the considered promising niches was the fractionalization of owning expensive NFTs. In a bull run, people believed that rare NFTs could be worth tens of millions (e.g. a Compound funder bought a punk monkey for $24M), and platforms offered to buy small fractionalized fractions of such NFTs.

One such platform, Niftex, was safely shut down, but Punk Monkey 2386 remained fractionalized through this protocol.
Since the site was shut down, all interactions with the smart contract could only be conducted directly via blockchain/etherscan.

The rules of the platform included a redemption logic: the owner of a faction could initiate a buyback of all factions of other users at a price set by him and if there were no redemption requests from other owners within 14 days, the smart contract would execute the redemption at the first set price.

User 0x282 initiated the buyout 14 days ago. Other owners were alerted to the brazen attempt to seize the property at a throwaway price, however:

To block a buyout, you must actually buy back the offering person's shares at a price higher than their offered price.
0x282 offered a price of 0.001 eth per share (10 eth for the whole punk), i.e. the price was 0.0010000001 eth for 1/10000th of a monkey share.

Another large token stake holder tried to re-bid and re-purchase 0x282's offer, but he was wrong by two ten-trillionths of a cent, because he offered a price of 0.0010000000 eth.
As a result, the buyout process was not blocked and user 0x282 took NFT worth $1.3M for $25K in front of everyone.

Champion of onchain liquidations

Tweeters of Lookonchain have found a special degen, liquidating three times in 2022m for 74,426 compoundWBTC ($32.82M).

He now has another 488 WBTC ($26.47M) against which he borrowed $17.2M in steibles and has a liquidation price of $50,429.

A leaked Chainalysis video shows that Monero transactions can be tracked despite the blockchain's privacy-preserving nature.

The video, which describes the company's methods for tracking transactions, has been removed.

Chainalysis's potential ability to track XMR transactions is concerning because Monero positions itself as a “secure, private, untraceable cryptocurrency that keeps your money private.”

Neiro ETH has been poured on Binance, but there is, as they say, a nuance

Let's take two pieces of news:

On August 1, Binance News writes that Bubblemaps identified 78% of Neiro tokens as having been spotted by insiders/teams.
And already on September 6 lists this memcoin on Binance perp listings.

Between the receipt of tokens by market maker Wintermute, listing on Bybit it fell from $280M capitalization to $22M, where another market maker took advantage of the situation and got enough token supply for cheap.

He did the famous trick with catching up volumes on Bybit futures (up to $300M / day) and sold it as a high volum meme koin cambake story for Binance.

As a result - the token is worth $160M, the market maker and insiders are rubbing their hands happily waiting for the opportunity to trade the token on Binance.

The hunt for Hyperliquid whale with 1,170 BTC continues

Earlier in the blog I wrote about a major player who has concentrated 25% of the Hyperliquid exchange's open interest in BTC in one hand.

Whale's current position: 1,170 BTC, entry $62,217, liquidation moved to $52,825.

Funding costs for the position $907K, unrealized loss $6.88M.
His trading style is very specific, he adds on market upswings and often cuts on downswings. Yesterday, Monday, he added a lot on the local top at $59.3K and cut the position on the downside for a few million.

Also, the whale added $1.2M USDC collateral the day before.

Ethereum Foundation: Ethereum's long-term scaling plan is to use SNARK technology to virtually unlimitedly increase core network bandwidth (L1 EVM).

Instead of re-executing each transaction, validators will be able to check for low-cost cryptographic evidence (SNARK). This will significantly increase the gas limit without overloading the validators. All complex computations will be performed outside of consensus by specialized nodes. Users and consensus participants will be able to easily run their nodes even on their phones or watches.

In addition to vertical scaling, SNARK technology opens up possibilities for horizontal scaling. A dedicated precompiler will allow new EVM instances to be launched within the core network, creating an unlimited number of programmable shards known as “native rollups.”

SNARK will allow Ethereum to process many more transactions without increasing the load on the network and will allow the creation of an unlimited number of “child” networks (shards) for even greater scalability.

Binance plans to introduce a Solana steaking product (BNSOL) by the end of September

BNSOL will allow users to steak SOL tokens to receive a portion of the commissions paid by the network and to mine a liquid steaking token that can be used while native tokens are locked.

Nvidia casually fell 9.27% or $280B on the first trading day of September for no reason

The reason turns out to be. After the close of trading - the company announced it had received a subpoena from the US Department of Justice related to an antitrust investigation into Nvidia's position in the AI industry.

What kind of Polichinel secret is this if the market was falling behind this subpoena in advance without knowledge of its delivery?

The first one went! ZkSync is saying goodbye to 16% of the team

A couple months ago, TGE passed, ZkSync has $458M in investment rounds and it's time to say goodbye to every 6th member?

It's 2024, BTC is still $58K, ether is a month old with ETF recognition, rate will be cut in 2 weeks.

Bear market for alts is starting to cut the fat from the most wealthy (at least in terms of the amount of money stashed with investors).
