👉 Everyone Shared This Trump Tweet — Almost No One Explained It
I opened my Binance feed and saw this everywhere, but hardly anyone talked about why it matters for crypto. So here’s the clean version. Donald J. Trump says unemployment at 4.5% is rising because government jobs are being cut, not because the economy is breaking. That detail changes how the data should be read. If unemployment rises due to weak demand, that’s bearish. If it rises because the government is shrinking, the signal becomes unclear. And when data is unclear, the Fed usually waits instead of acting fast. That matters for crypto. $BTC doesn’t need a rate cut today. It just needs no sudden tightening shock. A messy labor signal lowers that risk, which quietly supports BTC and other risk assets. Short term, expect noise. Political comments often bring volatility around the US market open, with fake moves before real direction. 😺 My take: Short term → neutral and choppy Medium term → slightly bullish for crypto No hype. Just context. Keep thinking 😼 $ZEC $WLFI #TRUMP #CPIWatch #USNonFarmPayrollReport
A crypto user just learned the most expensive lesson in Web3 history. Here’s what happened: THE SETUP: 🔹 Victim sent 50 $USDT test transaction to his own wallet (0xbaf4…F8b5) ✅ 🔹 Everything looked good, so he prepared to send $50M more THE TRAP: 🔹 Scammer was watching 🔹 Created a FAKE wallet with same first & last 4 characters 🔹 Sent dust transaction to victim (address poisoning attack) 🔹 Fake address now appears in victim’s transaction history THE MISTAKE: 🔹 Victim copied address from transaction history 🔹 Only checked first/last letters: “0xbaf4…F8b5” ✅ 🔹 Looked identical because wallets hide middle characters with “…” 🔹 Sent 49,999,950 USDT to SCAMMER’s address 💀 RESULT: $50,000,000 LOST FOREVER ⚠️ PROTECT YOURSELF: ❌ NEVER copy addresses from transaction history ❌ NEVER just check first/last characters ✅ ALWAYS verify the FULL address ✅ ALWAYS use address book/saved contacts ✅ ALWAYS do multiple small tests for large amounts YOUR #CRYPTO = YOUR RESPONSIBILITY One moment of laziness = Life-changing loss Stay safe out there!
Bitcoin Price Alarming Pattern Points to a Dip to $80k as $2.7b Options Expires Today
Bitcoin price rebounded by 3% today, Dec. 19, reaching a high of $87,960. This rise happened after the Bank of Japan (BoJ) delivered its first interest rate in 11 months. However, technicals suggest that the BTC price may dive to $80,000 and below ahead of a $2.7 billion options expiry and as ETF outflows continue. Bitcoin Price is at Risk Ahead of Options Expiry Bitcoin price is facing substantial headwinds that may trigger a major bearish breakdown in the coming days or weeks. One of the key risks is the upcoming options expiry, which will happen on Friday. Data compiled by Deribit shows that over 31,000 contracts worth over $2.7 billion will expire. The maximum pain, which is defined as the strike where most positions will expire worthless, is $88,000, which is slightly above the current level. The date also shows that the put/call ratio is 0.8, meaning that there are more calls than puts, which is a bullish sign. A call is a trade that gives a trader the right, but not the obligation, to buy an asset. On the other hand, a put trade gives traders a right, but not the obligation to sell an asset. More data shows that the major open interest cluster is $100,000 for calls and $85,000 go puts. It is common for the Bitcoin price to experience volatility ahead of and after a major options expiry like this one. The options expiry is coming at a time when Bitcoin’s open interest has dropped to $59 billion from a high of $94 billion in October, a sign that investors have continued to reduce their leverage. Reduced leverage is a sign of weak demand. Meanwhile, data compiled by SoSoValueshows that Bitcoin ETF inflows have remained elusive in the past few days. These funds lost over $161 million in assets, bringing the cumulative total inflows to $57 billion, down from over $60 billion earlier this year. Bitcoin Futures Open Interest Bitcoin Price Technical Analysis Suggests that a Crash is Possible The daily timeframe chart points to more BTC price decline after the BoJ interest rate hike today. The coin has formed a giant bearish flag pattern, which is characterized by a vertical line and an ascending channel. It is now in the channel section, meaning that it may have a strong bearish breakdown in the near term. The coin has moved below the Strong, pivot, and reverse levels of the Murrey Math Lines tool. It has dropped below the 50-day and 100-day Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) and the Supertrend indicators. Bitcoin Price Chart Therefore, the most likely Bitcoin price forecast is bearish, with the next major target being at $80,000, which is its lowest level in November this year. A drop below that level means that BTC price will then drop to the ultimate support of the Murrey Math Lines tool at $75,000. On the flip side, a jump above the bottom of the trading range at $93,750 will invalidate the bearish outlook. $BTC
