CPI hasn’t been released yet, but BTC first falls to 76.5k, and the market’s line of defense is moving lower

The latest market snapshot shows Bitcoin at about $765,600, down more than 2% over the past 24 hours; ETH at about $2,438. Nasdaq and the S&P 500 are also weakening in tandem, and the Fear & Greed Index has dropped from 69 to 56. Tonight’s 20:30 U.S. CPI could determine whether this pullback expands.

Right now, what traders truly care about is the range:

First, whether the $75,000–$76,000 zone can hold—this is the first line of defense tonight;
Second, if CPI comes in cool, whether BTC can first reclaim $77,000 and then challenge $78,000;
Third, if CPI is hot, whether ETF outflows and higher yields will create a second wave of pressure.

The PPI has already delivered the market a “high-inflation shock,” so even if CPI is just slightly above expectations, it could still trigger an amplified price reaction. At this point, it’s more suitable to watch key price levels and trading volume rather than guess a direction.

Do you think $75,000 will become the bottom of this pullback, or will CPI lead to another dip?

In the final hour before the CPI, two key price levels for BTC have already emerged

After a period of continued weakness, the market is now focused on two numbers: the on-chain average cost of around $766,000 below, and the corporate treasury profit-and-loss break-even line of around $805,000 above. Price oscillating between these two zones suggests that both bulls and bears are waiting for tonight’s CPI to provide direction.

If CPI comes in below expectations and yields pull back, the first thing to watch won’t be chasing rallies, but whether BTC can reclaim $770,000 and move closer to $800,000. If CPI stays hotter and breaks below $766,000, shorts may shift their targets down toward around $750,000.

ETF flows have been out for two straight days, while ETH and SOL still see inflows—indicating the market isn’t fully exiting, but rather reducing BTC exposure and looking for a relatively stronger direction.

Tonight’s most important thing isn’t predicting the number, but whether the first reaction after the data release can be confirmed by trading volume. Will you watch the $766,000 support, or wait for BTC to reclaim $770,000 before acting?

BTC falls below 77,000 for the fourth straight day; tonight’s CPI will determine whether the slide stops—or continues digging deeper

The impact of “hot” PPI has not been fully digested yet. Today, Bitcoin briefly fell to about $76.86k and has weakened for the fourth consecutive trading day. The latest single-day spot BTC ETF still saw net outflows of roughly $120 million, and ahead of the CPI release, the market has clearly reduced risk exposure.

The key now is not just whether CPI is “high or low,” but that the price has already sold off for a while:

First, if CPI comes in below expectations, short-covering could quickly push BTC back above 77,000—even up to 78,000;
Second, if CPI remains on the hot side, the area around 76,000 may become the next line of short-term defense;
Third, whether ETF outflows can stop will determine if the rebound is merely a technical repair—or if spot buying reappears.

After the liquidation following PPI, leverage has come down somewhat, but macro risk remains. The most likely scenario tonight may not be a one-way move, but rather a two-sided sweep—up and down—around the time the data is released.

Will you treat 76,000 as support, or wait until the CPI lands before making a call?

BTC ETF sees consecutive outflows, while ETH and SOL pull in funds: this rotation is different

Latest one-day capital flow data shows that US spot BTC ETFs recorded net outflows of approximately $120.2 million, marking the second straight day of outflows. Meanwhile, ETH ETFs saw net inflows of about $34.75 million, and SOL ETFs also absorbed around $11.73 million. While the BTC price is under pressure around $77,000, capital hasn’t fully left the crypto market—it’s simply shifting direction.

The implications for trading are very straightforward:

First, for BTC to rebound and regain momentum, you need to see ETF outflows narrow first;
Second, whether inflows into ETH and SOL can be sustained matters more than single-day price gains or losses;
Third, if CPI remains on the hot side, capital may prioritize mainstream assets with better liquidity, making altcoin rotations more fragile.

This isn’t a simple either/or between “bull market or bear market.” It’s a redistribution of capital between BTC and other major coins. After tomorrow night’s CPI release, this divergence may be amplified further.

Do you think this capital is accumulating ETH/SOL on the dip, or temporarily avoiding BTC volatility?

PPI hotter than expected: BTC breaks below 77,000, and $562 million liquidations hit first

U.S. August PPI rose 0.4% month over month, above market expectations. After the data was released, Bitcoin briefly fell to below about $76,650. Over the past few hours, the total liquidation across the market was nearly $562 million, including approximately $74 million liquidated from long positions.

Markets are now pricing in a tighter rate path again. Before the Fed’s September meeting, the weight of inflation data clearly outweighs ETF and certain altcoin narratives.

Next, watch three things:

First, whether BTC can quickly reclaim 77,000; otherwise, the 77,000–78,000 zone will turn from support into resistance.

Second, whether tomorrow’s CPI continues to come in hotter than expected—which will determine whether this pullback is a one-off shock or a sign of weakening momentum.

Third, after the liquidations, whether funding rates and open interest cool off meaningfully; if leverage is still there, volatility could keep amplifying.

This time, the most dangerous part isn’t how much it’s fallen, but that macro data is continuously pressuring the bulls. Do you think tomorrow’s CPI will continue to pressure the market, or will there be a rebound after the data print?

BTC traded around the 78,000 level for a whole day. Tonight’s real risk is in the data, not in emotions.

Bitcoin probed a few times down toward the 78,000 area today, and there was buying support each time—but it still couldn’t effectively reclaim the 80,000 mark. The market is waiting for the U.S. PPI, and CPI is also coming tomorrow night. In this kind of data window, ranging sideways is itself a signal: longs don’t want to chase price, and shorts don’t want to load up early.

Next, what’s more worth watching is the structure:

First, whether support in the 77,000–78,000 zone can hold;
Second, whether there is real trading volume above 80,000—not just fleeting wick spikes;
Third, whether ETH and large-cap altcoins can follow. Otherwise, BTC’s rebound on its own won’t be sustainable for long.

If the PPI comes in below expectations and rate-pressure eases, BTC could quickly move back above 80,000. If the data is hotter, what usually gets cleaned out first are high-leverage long positions.

Tonight, are you more focused on a breakout signal—or would you rather wait for volatility to play out?

The data hasn’t been released yet tonight, so BTC is in a “wait-for-the-result” mode.

There are still a few hours until the U.S. PPI is released. BTC is trading in a narrow range around $78,000. The market isn’t chasing higher prices, and there hasn’t been any out-of-control selloff. The most notable change right now is that capital is starting to reduce its directional bets—waiting for the inflation data to provide the next signal.

Tonight isn’t a good time to focus only on one number up or down. What’s worth watching instead:

First, whether BTC’s volatility continues to contract ahead of the PPI release;
Second, whether there’s proactive buying at the $77,000–$78,000 support zone;
Third, whether ETH and other major coins weaken early, suggesting that capital is positioning itself for a high-inflation outcome.

If the data matches expectations, price action may first test the $80,000 area. If it comes in clearly hot, the market will reprice the interest-rate path, and short-term leverage may be cleared first.

Tonight, will you wait to trade after the PPI lands, or make a bet on volatility in advance?

Tonight’s PPI and tomorrow night’s CPI will both be released in succession, and the $78,000 support for BTC needs to withstand a stress test

The U.S. August PPI will be released tonight. Market expectations are for core PPI to rise about 0.3% month over month. Tomorrow, CPI will follow. This is the final round of key inflation data before the Fed’s September meeting. BTC is currently still hovering near $78,000, right at the point where it’s caught between “ETF inflows” and “higher yields, with oil prices rising.”

In this kind of environment, the market is most likely to see two types of quick moves: if the data comes in cooler, rate expectations ease, and BTC moves to retest the $80,000 level; if the data comes in hotter, the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields rise, and the $77,000–$78,000 support is repeatedly tested.

For trading, don’t just look at the first candlestick—you also need to watch what happens in the half hour after the data is released:

First, whether BTC can gain volume and break above $80,000;
Second, whether ETH and other major coins move in sync—not just BTC surging alone;
Third, whether ETF fund flows and perpetual contract funding rates confirm the direction.

Tonight’s PPI may just be a warm-up—the one that truly determines the trend is tomorrow’s CPI. Will you wait for the data to land, or place your bet on the direction in advance?

Oil prices have regained $100, can BTC hold above 78,000?

Risk appetite in Asian markets has clearly cooled today: Brent crude has climbed back above $100, US stock futures are weak, and Asian equities generally fell. At the same time, the latest US spot BTC ETF print shows net outflows of about $46.6 million—pausing the inflow streak seen in the past few weeks.

This puts Bitcoin to a very real test: on one side, institutional buying driven by ETFs; on the other, macro pressure as oil prices and yields rise. BTC is still hovering around $78,000, suggesting neither bulls nor bears have yet gained a decisive edge.

Next, the focus is on three key levels:

First, whether $77,000–$78,000 can continue to act as support;
Second, as oil prices keep moving higher, whether ETF flows will turn negative consecutively;
Third, if tomorrow’s CPI comes in hot, whether the market will start pricing in a tighter interest-rate path earlier.

If ETFs flip back to net inflows, the oil-price shock may be absorbed. If funds continue to flow out, $78,000 could turn from support into resistance for rebounds.

Do you think BTC is currently more influenced by ETF flows, or more affected by oil prices and interest rates?

The US Treasury raises the buyback amount to $6 billion—why is BTC still hovering around $78,000?

Today, the US Treasury plans to repurchase up to about $6 billion in 10- to 20-year Treasury bonds, a scale that is clearly higher than the previous $2 billion. On paper, buybacks can improve long-end liquidity, but the market is also dealing with oil prices pushing above $100, rising yields on long-dated Treasuries, and tomorrow’s US CPI data.

So Bitcoin hasn’t broken out directly; instead, it’s been back and forth around $78,000. What’s being traded right now isn’t a single positive catalyst, but a hedge between “improving liquidity” and “inflation/rate pressure.”

The next few price-and-volume signals are crucial:

First, whether long-end yields can pull back from their highs;
Second, whether BTC can reclaim $79,000 and lift ETH and other major coins along with it;
Third, before CPI is released, whether ETF flows continue in or whether investors choose to lock in profits first.

If the buyback only brings temporary liquidity, while yields and oil prices keep climbing, risk assets may still spike higher and then retrace. Conversely, if inflation data cools, the current consolidation could turn into the buildup zone for the next leg of the rally.

Before tomorrow’s CPI, do you think BTC will break out first, or pull back first?

BTC is back around $78,000, yet ZEC surges to $1,242: what are the funds doing?

In this morning’s trading, Bitcoin fell to about $78,300, ETH hovered around $2,467, and BNB’s 24-hour drop briefly exceeded 4%; but ZEC instead rose to $1,242, up about 5% on the day.

This looks more like a structure where mainstream assets trade sideways while funds search for high-volatility narrative—rather than the whole market pushing up together. After Zcash ETF inflows accumulated quickly a few days ago, the combination of shrinking supply and the privacy track’s rising popularity naturally amplified volatility.

Next, watch three things:

First, whether BTC can hold above $78,000, preventing any rebound from turning into a spike-and-fade move;
Second, whether ZEC’s ETF buying continues, or whether short-term funds keep concentrating their trades;
Third, as large-cap assets like BNB weaken, will that pull liquidity back into BTC.

The easiest place to misread things is to treat a single coin’s strength as a bull market broadly spreading across the market. The real confirmation signal is still: BTC holds steady, major coins follow through, and ETF funds keep flowing in.

Do you see this as a new round of rotation, or as a temporary safe haven within a high-volatility market?

Metaplanet’s “coin hoarding” story—why did it suddenly turn into a story about equity dilution?

Metaplanet originally had an executive option pool of about 46 million shares. As the company continuously issued new shares to raise funds and buy BTC, its potential scale expanded to about 319 million shares. The company’s stock price fell as much as 17% at one point this Monday, and the market began to recalculate: with each additional BTC, is there a corresponding increase in per-share value?

The key issue isn’t just executive compensation—it’s the boundary of the “bitcoin reserve company” model:

First, can the BTC growth brought by additional share issuance outperform per-share dilution?
Second, since the option pool floats based on fully diluted share count, are incentives aligned with shareholders’ interests?
Third, for these kinds of companies, does the market’s premium come from the number of BTC holdings, or from a higher amount of BTC per share?

If the company continues expanding its BTC reserves but per-share metrics get diluted, the stock’s premium could disappear first. Conversely, if BTC per share can continue to grow, the market may treat this controversy as a governance discount rather than as a breakdown of the asset logic.

For these “bitcoin treasury companies,” should you focus most on total holdings or on holdings per share?

Strategy: This week didn’t buy BTC, but spent $176 million to repurchase STRC—has the funding strategy started to shift?

According to the latest regulatory filings, in the week ended September 7, Strategy did not buy or sell Bitcoin. Instead, it used approximately $176.3 million in cash to repurchase 1.81 million shares of STRC preferred stock. At the same time, it increased the authorization for digital credit securities repurchase from $1 billion to $2 billion.

This is different from the market-familiar “issue shares—buy coins” cadence. The company still holds about 845,000 BTC, but in the near term, the cash deployment looks more like it’s aiming to repair the discount on preferred stock and the financing structure.

There are three signals in the trade to watch:

First, if Strategy pauses buying BTC, will it weaken institutional expectations of the company’s “buying” activity;
Second, whether STRC repurchases can reduce the discount, or if it’s merely converting cash into another type of asset;
Third, if BTC continues to trade sideways around $79,000, which—MSTR or STRC—will reflect the pressure first.

This isn’t direct evidence of a bearish view on BTC, but at least it suggests that, for now, Strategy cares more about capital-structure management than about mechanically adding positions every week.

Do you think this is a tactical pause, or that the company’s model is switching?

BTC rebound is nearing $79,000, but the one stealing the spotlight is ZEC: it sucked up over $500 million in ETF flows in two weeks

After Bitcoin briefly dipped below $78,000, it rebounded, and the market is still waiting for inflation data and the Fed’s September meeting. Meanwhile, Zcash-related ETFs accumulated more than 550,000 ZEC in the past two weeks—about 3% of the circulating supply. The price has regained the $1,180 level, and 24-hour trading volume is close to $1 billion.

This isn’t just a simple “altcoin broad rally.” Capital is weighing interest-rate expectations while also hunting for tighter supply and more concentrated targets. Three things are worth watching right now:

First, whether buy pressure in the ZEC ETF can continue, or whether it’s a short-term concentrated inflow;
Second, whether the BTC rebound can hold above $79,000 again;
Third, before the Fed decision, whether the US dollar and Treasury yields will once again push risk assets back down.

If ETF inflows keep coming while BTC goes sideways, the market may continue to rotate structurally; if macro data turns hawkish, the freshly gathered high-volatility capital may retreat first.

Will you track ZEC’s concentration of funds, or treat this as a short-term event?

Ethereum schedules “quantum-safe” for 2029—why it’s worth paying attention to now?

The Ethereum Foundation has set an unusually specific goal: by the end of 2029, the execution layer, consensus layer, and data layer should all be able to withstand quantum attacks. The Hegotá upgrade in 2027 isn’t really the finish line—it’s more like putting a timetable in place for the subsequent hard forks.

In the short term, this may not directly move the ETH price, but it will change how the market prices Ethereum’s long-term security. What’s really worth watching isn’t whether quantum computing will “break” things tomorrow, but three things:

First, whether the migration of account and validator signatures has been completed into executable EIPs;
Second, how much upgrade cost wallets, staking nodes, and exchanges will have to bear;
Third, whether L2s, cross-chain bridges, and custodial platforms can keep up with the same timeline.

If the roadmap keeps delivering, the long-term infrastructure narrative for ETH will become more complete. If it’s just talk of a target without migration details, the market may treat it as a distant story instead.

Do you think quantum safety will become ETH’s next major theme, or will it only start getting traded once the upgrades actually land?

3,400 BTC are back—this Liquid turmoil hasn’t truly ended yet

Of the approximately 4,000 BTC previously transferred out from Liquid Network, 3,400 BTC have already returned to the federated wallet, with about 85% of the funds recovered. However, around 598.5 BTC remains at the original address—worth roughly $47 million at the time. In addition, L-BTC minting/redemption and network services are still waiting to be restored.

The three most important things to watch after the “recovery” are:
First, after bridge node repair, when will the network reopen?
Second, are the remaining BTC a white-hat retained bounty, or is there still likely selling pressure that could move later?
Third, before L-BTC is restored to circulation, can trust be reestablished in the reserves proof and redemption mechanism?

Funds coming back doesn’t mean the risk is gone. For traders, the real confirmation signal isn’t a single refund transaction—it’s the network being restored, reserves becoming transparent again, and minting/redemption reopening. Do you think the remaining 598 BTC will become a bounty, or will they be the fuse for the next round of volatility?

Reversing to recover $111 million: What is the real issue Cronos has left behind this time?

Cronos released a post-incident review of the Tectonic vulnerability: the attackers used manipulated collateral to borrow about $120.4 million. The validators then rolled the chain back to before the attack, recovering about $111.2 million. However, roughly $9.19 million had already left the network and could not be recovered.

What’s most worth关注（attention） in this incident is not “how much was recovered,” but the cost of the rollback itself:
First, transaction history spanning nearly two hours and more than 10,000 blocks was undone;
Second, on-chain finality—something users expected—has been redefined;
Third, whether future DeFi protocols will dare to use low-liquidity assets as collateral.

A rollback can stop the bleeding, but it can’t turn all losses back into something that never happened. For traders, what to watch next is how Tectonic will be restarted, whether collateral rules will be tightened, and whether the CRO and Cronos ecosystem can restore liquidity. Do you think the rollback was a necessary emergency measure—or a bigger governance risk?

BTC falls below $79,000—why is ZEC the first to retreat?

Today, major coins broadly pulled back. BTC dipped below $79,000, while ZEC’s single-day drop is close to 5%, yet over the past week it has still risen by more than 30%. This contrast suggests the market isn’t simply turning bearish across the board; instead, in high-volatility sectors, profits are being booked first.

Next, there are three levels worth watching:
First, whether BTC can hold the support around $77,000;
Second, whether the ETF flows for ZEC and the price retreat move in sync;
Third, before Thursday’s PPI and Friday’s CPI are released, whether the probability of Fed rate hikes continues to hover near or above 60%.

If BTC holds support and ZEC is only taking profits, capital may keep rotating; if BTC and high-beta altcoins both weaken together, it indicates that macro pressure is spreading. Do you think this is a normal cooldown, or has the market structure started to change?

Harmony will shut down its mainnet—what should ONE holders look at next?

Harmony proposes to shut down the Layer 1 network that has been running for years and to migrate ONE into an ERC-20 token on Ethereum. The plan is currently a non-binding proposal, but it has already outlined a key date: starting September 10, validators may begin stopping nodes; liquidity pools, contracts, and multisig assets will not be automatically migrated.

This is not just a matter of “switching chains”:
First, when the final snapshot and the new token contract will be confirmed;
Second, whether exchanges will support the ONE migration and the deposit/withdrawal switching;
Third, how to handle supply and liquidity issues left behind by security incidents on the old chain.

If the migration details remain stalled, the price may continue to be discounted for uncertainty; only if exchanges and contract arrangements are clear will the market be able to reassess ONE’s liquidity. Do you see this as a project restart, or a respectable exit?

US Treasury yields rise—why hasn’t BTC faced obvious pressure like gold?

In the latest market observations, an unusual signal stands out: BTC’s 90-day return correlation with gold is about 0.59, but its correlation with the yield on US 10-year Treasuries is only around -0.17, significantly weaker than gold’s roughly -0.41.

This doesn’t mean BTC has already detached from the macro picture; rather, it suggests that in BTC’s pricing, there may be more capital flows and supply-demand factors specific to the crypto market. For now, focus on three areas:
First, when Treasury yields continue climbing, will BTC play catch-up and fall?
Second, can BTC hold near the $80,000 level?
Third, can ongoing inflows into ETFs offset macro headwinds?

If BTC truly can withstand interest-rate shocks better than gold, the market’s “risk asset” pricing for it may be changing. If it’s only a short-term divergence, the next macro data release will provide the answer. Do you think BTC is decoupling, or is it just reacting a bit late?
