Kashkari will explain next year to raise it once, and the year after that it will stay unchanged. It sounds quite mild. But he is from the Minneapolis Fed, and he has voting rights this year. He isn’t just saying it casually.
He’s concerned about inflation, saying the inflation pressure range is widening—not just the Middle East issue.

Also, what about Waller and Williams. Waller is a newcomer, having taken office in June. At his first meeting, he didn’t submit his own dot plot. He said the dot plot is drawn with a pencil and can be erased, so don’t take it too seriously. But at the same time, he did something else: he scrapped forward guidance. Going forward, the Fed won’t tell you in advance whether to raise or cut rates; everything will be determined by the data.

Williams is the president of the New York Fed, essentially the third in line. He said current interest rates are at the right level—there’s no need to raise them and no need to cut them. He expects inflation to return to 2% only in 2028. That doesn’t sound urgent, but hitting the target only by 2028 suggests he has more patience on inflation than Kashkari.

Inside the FOMC right now, there are roughly three groups of people. Kashkari is one of them—slightly dovish but already moving toward the hawks. For him, one hike is enough; don’t add more. Williams is a centrist—if rates don’t move, that’s best, and inflation will gradually come down. There’s another group that hasn’t said much, but the dot plot leaked the secret. Of the 18 officials who submitted forecasts, 9 believe there should be at least one hike this year, and 6 of those think it should be 50 basis points or more. Back in March, nobody thought a hike was needed. This shift says more than anyone’s comments.

Who is closer to the final policy path? I think it depends on the unemployment rate. Morgan Stanley just issued a report, keeping its view that there will be no rate hikes within the year, but it set a red line: if the unemployment rate falls below 4%, or if inflation keeps failing to come down, the Fed may be forced to raise rates. The unemployment rate is now 4.3%, just 0.3 percentage points above 4%.

Kashkari’s “hike once” view aligns with the dot plot—9 people agree on a rate hike. Morgan Stanley says hikes would happen if unemployment is below 4%. The three lines point in the same direction; it’s not whether to hike, but how many times.

The market has already priced in a 66% probability of a rate hike in September, more than doubling from 29% a week ago. The market isn’t betting on Kashkari or on Williams—it’s betting on the nine pencils in the dot plot.

Waller doesn’t draw a dot plot, but he set a rule: go by the data. The current data are inflation at 4.1% and unemployment at 4.3%, and it’s only slightly above Morgan Stanley’s red line.

罗素大换血 今天收盘后SpaceX正式被纳入
先说个关键数字 被动基金要被迫买近30亿美元的SpaceX股票 集中在收盘前那几分钟执行
**但有个细节很多人忽略了**
SpaceX市值2万亿美元 但市场上能自由交易的只有约1000亿美元 其他都在马斯克和内部人手里 流通盘就这么点 30亿的被动买盘扔进去 理论上是能砸出水花的
问题来了
SpaceX这周已经跌了17% 收在153.23美元 从最高225跌下来 市值蒸发快一半
主动资金在跑 而且跑得很快 6月22日单日暴跌16% 就是因为200亿发债计划引发市场对马斯克AI烧钱的恐慌
**现在的情况是 被动资金必须在收盘前买 不管价格多少 不管公司基本面怎么样 不管亏不亏钱 买就完了**
这就好比一个人在前面拼命卖 另一个人在后面被迫接 谁的力量大 今天收盘见分晓
**尾盘成交量能不能反映真实承接力**
能反映一部分 但不是全部
收盘竞价那几分钟的成交量 是被动基金集中建仓的真实记录 这个数据是实的 骗不了人
但如果今天尾盘拉起来了 你要问自己一句 这是主动资金看好SpaceX 还是被动基金在机械执行 如果是后者 明天没有被动买盘了 价格还能不能撑住
反过来 如果今天尾盘被动资金进场后价格还是起不来 甚至继续跌 那说明主动资金的抛售量已经超过了30亿的买盘 这个信号比任何技术指标都值得警惕
**我个人看法**
今天尾盘会有一波脉冲 但脉冲之后怎么走 才是真正该关心的
被动资金不是来接盘的 是被迫来接盘的 区别很大
等今天收盘再看吧 数据不会骗人$BTC

World Cup upsets and contract liquidation are essentially the same thing
I watched the Netherlands match, 0–3.
Before the game, the odds had the Netherlands giving 1.5 goals.
After the game, the comment section was full of “fixed match.”
What’s the difference from the contract market?
Say you like a certain coin,
you open a long position with more than 10x leverage,
then a sudden piece of breaking news comes out,
the price reverses and spikes against you, and your position is wiped out.
The Netherlands match was the same:
you backed the Netherlands,
you went heavy,
and then three goals happened—
and your money was gone.
The difference is this:
In football, you can call it a fixed match.
In contracts, you can say the market is controlled by the whales.
But the truth might be the same—your understanding of probability is off.
An upset isn’t impossible,
neither is liquidation.
The real issue is whether your position size left room for the “impossible”

About the recent AI craze and decentralized computing power direction with strong momentum
Everyone can pay more attention to the actions of @OpenGradient OpenGradient
Its core token label $OPG has been getting a lot of buzz lately in the ecosystem’s discussion forum
Especially their promoted OpenGradient Chat and the recommended discussion topics
As a sector that combines AI with Web3
There are still clear disagreements between both bullish and bearish sides regarding the current technical structure
If the hype in the AI sector can keep borrowing momentum
It means the market is recognizing the urgent demand for decentralized AI inference and intelligent compute power
As long as $OPG can increase volume on the order book, break through, and hold the key “right-side structure” signal
Once the panic selling from this altcoin market wave and the high-leverage positions have been washed clean by the main force
On a 4-hour timeframe, if it once again forms a nice bottoming and rebound
Next, it is highly likely to ride the ecosystem tailwinds and trigger a one-sided, huge breakout rally
And directly force out the short-side positions made on the left
But if this wave of momentum is only a smoke screen used by the main force to pump and distribute
Once market funds are pulled away again by US stocks or broader macro liquidity
After the hype fades, this new narrative is most likely to become the worst area for a washout
If the price action also breaks down on increased volume below the recent key support range
The main force will likely take advantage of the situation and cooperate to pressure the market downward
Down below, in no time, there will be a deep drop to clear out long positions’ leverage
At that point, stubbornly holding single-directionly with blind conviction can easily lead to a big loss
So for this newly emerging ecosystem and new topic
Blindly trying to guess the top or bottom at high frequency, or going all-in to bet on it, is really dangerous
I’m going to keep my hands off for now
Until the most certain trend signal appears, I’d rather stay in cash and watch
Controlling your desires is what keeps your bullets
Brothers, do you think this wave of #OPG is a real opportunity or a trap dug by the main force? Chat in the comments

People are trading coins aggressively—can you hold up through this wave of downturn?
This time, anyone who’s been bullish has mostly gotten burned, including me

Unexpected outcomes in the World Cup and liquidation in contracts are fundamentally the same thing.
I watched the Netherlands match where they lost 0-3.
Before the game, the odds had the Netherlands giving 1.5 goals,
and the comments section was flooded with "match-fixing".
How is this different from the futures market?
You’re bullish on a certain coin,
open a 10x long position,
then a sudden news flash hits,
price spikes against you,
your position is wiped out.
The Netherlands match was similar;
you were confident in the Dutch team,
placed a hefty bet,
then three goals against you,
your cash is gone.
The difference is:
in football, you can claim match-fixing,
in contracts, you might say the house controls the game,
but the reality could be the same—your understanding of probability was off.
An upset isn’t impossible,
liquidation isn’t impossible,
the question is whether your position allowed space for the "impossible".

About the recent buzz in AI and decentralized computing
Everyone should keep an eye on @OpenGradient OpenGradient's actions
Their core token label $OPG 's ecosystem is currently very hot in the discussion forums
Especially with their flagship OpenGradient Chat and the recommended discussion topics
As a segment combining AI and Web3
The bulls and bears are still showing clear divergence in the current technical structure
If the hype around the AI sector can sustain itself
It indicates that the market is recognizing the essential demand for decentralized AI reasoning and smart computing
As long as $OPG can break out with volume and establish a solid right-hand structure signal
Once the panic selling in this altcoin market and high leverage is cleaned out by the big players
If the 4-hour chart shows a nice bottom reversal
Next, it is very likely to see a massive surge driven by positive ecosystem news
Directly squeezing the shorts from the left side until they shed tears
But if this hype is just a smokescreen for the big players to offload
Once market funds are drawn back by U.S. stocks or macro liquidity
After the hype retreats, this new narrative could easily become a washout zone
If the price breaks down through the recent key support area
The big players will likely take advantage and crash the market
Down below, they might need to deep clean the long leverage in minutes
At this point, stubbornly holding onto a one-sided blind strategy could lead to significant losses
So this new ecosystem and topic that just emerged
Blindly trying to guess tops and bottoms or going all in is really risky
I'm preparing to keep my hands steady
I'd rather sit in cash and watch the show until the trend signals are clearer
Controlling desire is how you keep your ammo
Brothers, do you think #OPG this time is an opportunity or a trap set by the big players?

Ethereum Foundation directly slashes 20% of staff
Core researchers are leaving one after another
Even more bizarre is
That on the night of the restructuring announcement, big institutions rushed to withdraw massive amounts of ETH
Is this a sign that institutions are sensing risk and retreating
Or are they repositioning in line with Vitalik's new framework
The long-short divide is getting intense
The logic of being caught in a squeeze is crystal clear:
If the restructuring is 'bad news priced in'
Then the institutions withdrawing ETH might not be for dumping, but rather shifting to long-term staking channels
With a streamlined foundation, internal strife will lessen, and future sell pressure might actually drop
As long as the 4-hour level can hold support and show breakout signals on the right side
The main players could very well launch a massive one-sided rally that makes the shorts cry
But if the layoffs signal that the ecosystem is crumbling
Then this so-called restructuring is just a fig leaf, failing to address the hard truth of the mainnet lacking a profit-making effect
Institutional withdrawals indicate that big money's confidence in ETH has already shaken
Once the market volume breaks below the previous ironclad structure
The main players will definitely ride the wave to push down, creating a bottomless pit in no time
So facing this major reshuffle, blindly guessing tops and bottoms is the easiest way to get pinched from both ends
I'm planning to keep my eyes open and my moves limited, waiting for the right-side trend to become crystal clear before diving in
What do you all think? Is Vitalik's move a self-rescue or the beginning of stepping down from the pedestal?

then most likely it will ride ecosystem tailwinds to trigger a one-way, massive surge,

But if this burst of momentum is only a smokescreen used by the main players to distribute,

Upsets in the World Cup and liquidations in contracts are essentially the same thing. I watched the Netherlands match where they lost 0-3. Before the game, the odds had the Netherlands giving away 1.5 goals, and the comments after the match were flooded with "match-fixing". How is this different from the futures market? You’re bullish on a coin, open a 10x long position, and then a sudden piece of news hits, causing a price spike against you, and boom—your position is wiped out. The same goes for the Netherlands match; you had faith in them, placed a hefty bet, and then three goals later—your money's gone. The difference is: in football, you can blame it on match-fixing, while in contracts, you might say the market makers are manipulating things. But the truth could be the same—you just misjudged the probabilities. Upsets aren’t impossible, and liquidations aren’t impossible either. The real question is: did you leave room in your position for the "impossible"? #BinancePickAndWin

You can't hold onto tense and worried positions; otherwise, in the end, you'll end up with nothing. The outcome is already set in stone.

In this trading market, you can't just grab profits that aren't yours; they're like free money you shouldn't touch. This refers to profits outside your strategy and plan, where the risk exposure is huge. Don't go all in on a single asset and a single trend; the market is always right. With the ebb and flow of trends, why do you think it should move in the direction of your fantasies? Unless you're a major player, it's best to go with the flow.

Can't sleep, not tired at all

Is it too much tea or too much cola?

The consolidation we talked about earlier seems ready for a breakout to the upside, added to my position and going to catch some z's.

The BTC and ETH short-term converging triangle is setting up for a major showdown, it's a battle about to unfold ⚔️ The final showdown before dawn, with longs and shorts at stake. Let's hope it doesn't dip further; I've still got a long position that hasn't hit take profit.

I don't get why this crypto trade is so intense. Margin of 100k, leveraging 10x
But the position size is only 50k
