Last night I dreamed that BTC entered a markup and kept rising all the way to $2.5 million. What a great dream 😂
ChatGPT really has some stuff. The BU pullback alerts I set earlier—these days the price has basically been staying within the range I set.
Anyway, I’m already fully loaded on Bitcoin. The remaining USDT (U) hasn’t been idle either. Around 77,500, I keep placing dual-currency low-buy orders to rent out, and the coin-minted grid is running too. This annualized return—looks really comfortable 🤔 Feels like getting a DVF each day.
Once BTC truly reclaims and stands above 100,000, my thinking should gradually flip around as well.
For now, the task at low levels is still to accumulate more coins. Once we truly enter a markup, and after the bull market is well underway—then I’ll take a portion of my flexible position and slowly ladder/sell at higher prices. The core position, though, I’ll keep holding—staying with BTC on the way to bigger targets. I still want to hold core BTC long-term, because my ultimate script hasn’t changed: I want to see the day when BTC hits $1 million.
This cycle I’m aiming to achieve: don’t lose coins in the bear market, and don’t get too excited and sell everything too high in the bull market 🙌 $BTC
Binance has recently started to look a bit like it's going crazy upgrading its own account—at first I really wanted to step in this time and, for this Binance launch of US stock options, actually go buy a Google Call just to experience it.
But when I opened the options chain and saw a full screen of Calls and Puts, strike prices, expiration dates, and after studying it for a while, I silently came to a conclusion:
I still think [dual-coin] is more fun 😂🫢
That said, because I took this seriously and researched it properly this time, I think there are a few points worth saying separately about the US stock options launched this time.
First, what it offers are real options on US-listed stocks and ETFs, with physical settlement. NTL is responsible for introducing and routing orders, while Alpaca Securities handles execution, clearing, settlement, and custody. When you exercise, it corresponds to the actual underlying shares.
For people like me who are just getting into options, the rules currently don’t seem as scary as you might imagine.
For the initial offering, only Buy Call / Buy Put are available. In simple terms, that means buying options—no “naked selling” strategies like that. Before you buy, you pay how much premium; as the buyer, your maximum loss is capped at that premium.
For example, if you spend $200 to buy a Call, the worst case is that you lose all $200 of the premium.
“Knowing your maximum loss in advance” doesn’t mean “risk is low.”
Options have expiration dates. If you get the direction wrong you can lose money; if you get the direction right but the price doesn’t rise fast enough, you might still lose. And when it reaches expiration and the option loses value, the premium can still end up at zero…
This is also why, after my first time opening the Google options chain, I felt that it’s the part that you need to learn more than dual-coin 😂 (a noob’s statement)
Fees are currently about $0.6 per contract. Eligible spot accounts and fund accounts can also be used directly—there’s no need to set up a separate wallet just to trade options. Before you can start officially, you need to complete the Options Suitability test and the related agreements.
One more small piece of knowledge that people who are playing for the first time often overlook: US stock options typically mean 1 contract corresponds to 100 shares, so before placing an order, you really should check the contract specifications clearly.
After researching the whole thing, for now I still haven’t been successfully “upgraded” into an options player hahaha.
As for options, I’m going to study a bit more. I understand the rules after looking around, but I still can’t quite play it—I’m feeling a bittersweet loss 😭
The first domino in crypto has already fallen. The story after that may have only just begun.
Yesterday, while reading at the Four Seasons Hotel, I ran into a friend who had moved from Web3 to A-shares. We sat and talked for a long time, from stocks to Crypto, and then to the future development of the market. As we talked, he suddenly asked me: “If you look at the next three to five years, what direction do you like the most?”
I still think it’s crypto, and it’s a huge blue ocean. More and more traditional assets will be traded again in a Crypto way.
Take Binance’s bStocks data today as an example: monthly trading volume rose from 2.9 billion dollars to 8.8 billion dollars, and in July it accounted for 85% of tokenized stock DEX trading volume. You can already see that the first domino in crypto has fallen, and the future trend of crypto trading methods is unstoppable.
Once more and more people have experienced 24/7 trading, they get used to being able to trade on weekends, in the middle of the night, and immediately when major news comes out. The idea of “waiting for Monday’s open” itself starts to become unreasonable. That is the domino effect. Once you go back to a world of “waiting for the market to open,” it becomes hard to adapt to the old world.
Demand is the biggest moat. When a trading method is truly more convenient and more free, users will naturally vote with their feet. Demand will always be more powerful than educating the market.
Once the first domino falls, the changes that follow may come faster than we imagine.
Free trading is, in itself, a demand. Who wouldn’t want to trade whenever they want to trade?
I’ll keep focusing deeply on crypto, and I’m also keeping up with the pioneers who dare to try @币安Binance华语 to eat the crab first. #binance #bStocks #RWA
Haha! Yesterday I was envious of the 1000u air drop others received. Today I’ve also become one of the kids getting a huge “bear market” air drop meat!
And the investors are seriously top-tier: YZi labs, OKXVentures, Hashkey Capital, Red Shirt China, Polychain, and other institutions—this is a project with funding of over $20 million.
My box 1 is now worth around 880u. I heard there might be something in box 2 too?
After TGE, and only after it’s time to claim, will there still be a chance to pump the market? The current pre-market price is 0.33, with a market cap of 350 million. In this bear market, can it at least push past 1 billion? The project team that dares to issue an airdrop in a big bear market—bold, like a bull, honestly 👀
And you can’t just take other people’s airdrops for free: @dappOS_com is an AI operating system focused on building low barriers to entry. It aims to help everyone easily use powerful AI—no complicated learning required. By combining intelligent research with on-chain execution, it translates your requirements into plain language, and the system automatically completes the tasks. Its flagship AI product is xBubble.
Finally: Please open the market and pump it fast! Because I have! 😳
Have you ever personally looked at the exchange Assets metric?
In a bear market, you’ve read too many stories about exchanges blowing up. After FTX, when looking at an exchange, besides the data that everyone pays attention to—like trading volume and trading fees—there’s another thing to look at: how many publicly verifiable assets it actually has. In this bear market, when I talked with an AI chatbot, I asked: besides looking at branding and reputation, what data can help regular users judge an exchange? It suggested a metric that I used to almost never pay attention to—Assets (on-chain publicly verifiable assets). Honestly, I hadn’t looked at this data much before; in practice, I mostly focused on trading volume, products, and promotions. This time, I took a quick look into it and found it pretty interesting.
🎁 ⌚️ I received the event prizes! Thank you @币安Binance华语 for the Apple Watch ✨
I’m so happy that in the 5th Binance Week Ambassador event, I won the 【Best On-Stage Look】 Award 🙌 It feels great to have prepared seriously to be seen 🫶🏻
Here’s to this little bit of luck for today 🥂 Keep living with intention, and keep creating with intention— #LoveCryptoLoveLife
Google’s earnings just came out, and the market is still debating: with AI burning so much money, is it really worth it?
After Yu Yongping posted on social media a few hours after Google’s earnings report was released: “I think I’ll add some more Google.” Today, this earnings report from Google truly gives me more confidence in $GOOGL than anything else, and it’s based on two data points: First, everyone worried that AI would take away Google Search’s business, but Google Search revenue actually grew by 17%. ChatGPTs have already arrived at the doorstep. The most core cash cow of Google has not shrunk and is still maintaining double-digit growth. Second, Google Cloud revenue grew 82% to $24.8 billion, and operating profit rose from $2.8 billion to $8.8 billion—almost three times.
Tonight, Google and Tesla will release their Q2 earnings together.
Don’t panic just because you see the word “earnings” 😂
In plain terms, it means companies hand in a report card every three months:
How much did they make? How much did they spend? Can they keep making money going forward?
⏰ Specific timing:
Both companies will report after the close of trading on July 22 in the U.S., which is after 4:00 a.m. Beijing time on July 23.
Google earnings call: 4:30 a.m. Beijing time Tesla earnings call: 5:30 a.m. Beijing time
Earnings are usually released before the call starts, so after 4:00 a.m., starting with GOOGL and TSLA—and including the tokenized U.S. stocks XGOOGL and XTSLA—volatility may increase noticeably.
So what should we, the newbies, look at?
🔍💻 Google mainly focuses on three things:
1️⃣ Are search ads still profitable?
This is Google’s core business. With everyone using AI to search, the market will worry whether traditional search ads might be affected.
2️⃣ How fast is Google Cloud growing?
Google has poured a lot of money into AI. The market wants to see not just how smart Gemini is, but whether AI is actually bringing real orders and revenue to the cloud business.
3️⃣ Is the spending on AI happening too quickly?
Building data centers and buying chips costs a lot. It’s good if revenue grows fast, but if spending accelerates faster than the pace of earning, the market may not be happy.
One-sentence summary: Google needs to prove that AI has started making real money.
🚘 Tesla also mainly focuses on three things:
1️⃣ Does selling cars actually make money?
Tesla delivered about 480,000 vehicles in Q2—very impressive volume.
But if sales are driven by price cuts and incentives, profits may not rise along with volume. That’s why automotive gross margin matters more than delivery numbers.
2️⃣ Does the company have enough cash to keep going?
Robotaxi, FSD, and the Optimus humanoid robot all require continuous investment. The market will look to see whether these new businesses are burning too much cash.
3️⃣ How much of Elon Musk’s future vision has been delivered?
When will Robotaxi expand operations? How is FSD progressing? When will Optimus truly reach mass production?
These timelines may influence Tesla’s stock price even more than plain revenue numbers.

📜 Jianghu Rumor: Recently, a fragment of a book called “RWA Crypto Heavenly Scripture” has surfaced… It has now found its way into Binance’s Hidden Sutra Pavilion.
In the old financial Jianghu world, though the U.S. stock “artifacts” are powerful, they come with several limitations:
🕰️ They can only be traded at fixed times 🔒 Assets lie dormant and are hard to access ⚔️ After buying, you can only wait for price to rise or fall
Until one crypto monk, who accidentally deciphered a key insight from the heavenly scripture: Assets can also be transformed—and cultivated.
🪄 First Sect: Turning Stones into Chains Transform real-world assets into on-chain spirit contracts.
🌍 Second Sect: All Things Return to the Vault All assets under heaven can be gathered into your grasp.
⚔️ Third Sect: Heaven and Earth Forging the Tool Asset tokenization—forge a digital magical treasure.
🔥 Fourth Sect: Borrowing Strength from Heaven and Earth Without moving your original foundation, you can still ride the momentum.
And thus, stocks are no longer just “buy and wait.”
They begin to have more possibilities: You can trade them, you can combine them, you can unlock liquidity.
As for this “RWA Crypto Heavenly Scripture,” it is now passed into Binance’s Hidden Sutra Pavilion. One page reads:
Hold bStocks, and they can serve as collateral assets to enter the margin system— so assets are not only held, but can also release more room for use.
However—
📖 Even if the Jianghu manual is great, not everyone can practice it.
Especially the art of “Borrowing Strength from Heaven and Earth.” If your internal power is insufficient, forcing it to activate can risk going off the rails into madness.
Fellow seekers, remember this: First cultivate your inner power, then practice the divine arts.
Control your position size, proceed according to your capacity.
Don’t let the blood bar get emptied before you’ve truly understood the secret arts.😂⚔️
Price-Volume Behavior and Subsequent Sustained, Steady Upward Trend (High Support) The market shows demand
Price enters a dead-end—supply is exhausted; and with supply exhausted, it indicates that there is no pressure in the market. As long as there are three highs, and the volume increase is sufficient.
After the dead-end, the fluctuations are very large. After breaking through the three highs, I entered some positions.$BTC Learning📚mark

A human is 9 years old and may still be doing summer homework 👶
Binance is 9 years old now. It has already been with this industry through the DeFi Summer, NFTs, inscriptions, RWA, on-chain U.S. stocks, and several bull-and-bear cycles.
Crypto kids really do grow up early. 😂
Of course, I didn’t know it since it was born. But when I first entered the space, it was only around 3 or 4 years old.
Back then, DeFi Summer was in full swing. Every day, everyone studied liquidity mining, and seeing those outrageous APYs made your heart race.
Then came NFTs—everyone on the entire network was changing their profile pictures. After that, inscriptions: people would wait at launch, submit for new listings, and study “聪” (smart strategies).
Then RWA got closer and closer—until today, even U.S. stocks are starting to be moved onto the chain and invested and traded directly on Binance.
These past few years in crypto really feel like someone else’s decade.
Round after round of new things kept showing up. Many concepts that once sounded far away are now everyday features on our phones.
As Binance grows up, I grow up with it.
At first, when I entered the space, I only knew how to look at up or down—what to chase, how to FOMO, what to rush for. Later, I started paying attention to products, capital, and researching market structure. I’ve made money and lost money, chased hype, and slowly learned what actually fits me. I began to share the new changes happening in this industry with more people.
Time flies so fast. I watched this baby—about three years old—grow all the way to 9. And it has also witnessed my changes throughout my journey in crypto.
Last year, we celebrated your 8th birthday. This year, we’ll keep taking growth photos of the 9-year-old baby. 📷💛
Wishing you continue to grow up healthy, and keep tinkering with new things. Thanks for being here. Crypto is just getting started~ Next year at 10, we’ll see you again 🧡
I used to think that I often bought the bottom too early because I didn’t have patience. I needed to find a way to PUA myself into cultivating patience…
Then I realized that patience, in essence, is a form of cognition.
Once you know there are still some market structures that haven’t finished playing out, you’ll naturally have “patience.”
When you understand the market structure, you won’t keep trying to rush the start.
You only get anxious when you don’t understand. After you grasp the规律 of the cycle, you’ll naturally end up with “patience” instead.
My current understanding of this big-bun (W-shaped) structure is:
At around 59,000: panic selling The market concentrates and releases supply, and you begin to see clear absorption.
At around 84,000: an automatic rebound After the panic sell pressure temporarily fades, the price naturally repairs upward.
At around 57,800: a second test It returns to the bottom area again to test whether the earlier supply has already been consumed.
Now that BTC is back around 63,000, I believe it most likely is still in the accumulation (absorbing) phase after the second test.
Next, the most critical part is to see whether the market can move into a漂亮的 SOS (a strong signal):
Break above the overhead supply area on increased volume, During the pullback, volume should shrink and it should hold the support, Then continue moving upward.
If it plays out, that would be more like accumulation gradually completing, with the early bull market beginning to take shape.
If it doesn’t play out, that means the supply hasn’t been fully cleared, and the market may need to continue ranging and testing.
Before, people only used to ask: up or down?
Now the questions are:
Has the supply been exhausted? Has demand taken over? Has the structure been confirmed?
Of course, these are only my current stage-by-stage judgments based on the Wyckoff structure—this is not me stamping the market in advance.
Look at the clues from the left side, wait for evidence on the right.
I’ll submit a round of this current understanding as homework for now.
In this bear market cycle, my biggest takeaway isn’t how much money I made.
It’s that I realized that I didn’t even wait for a “panic selling” setup.
Before the first initial support test, I actually entered from the left side early.
Back then, I didn’t know that
a real bottom
still has so many structures to go through.
As the book puts it: Panic selling is the first signal that a bear market is ending.
So, at the first stage of initial support,
it only means the market has, for the first time, shown demand that can confront the sell orders.
The following structures will still involve panic selling.
That indicates that larger capital is starting to take over.
The buyers are the main force,
while the sellers are the general public caught in panic.
Why does the market need panic selling?
Because only when emotional shares keep being handed out continuously can supply gradually dry up—and the bear market finally gets a chance to truly come to an end.
So, panic selling is actually often one of the important signals that a bull market is beginning to take shape within the bear market.
Of course, it’s not a confirmation of the bottom.
After that, it typically still needs to go through:
Natural rebound (AR) → Secondary test (ST) → Accumulation …
Until there are fewer and fewer floating shares in the market,
and the chips slowly shift into the hands of long-term capital.
The supply-demand relationship trend starts to turn upward 👆 And the bull market is about to set off.
Thanks to my little left-side entry, I also learned so much knowledge from it 🧡
In this bull-bear cycle,
what I’m turning over to myself isn’t just returns.
People look for books, and books choose the people. My little Xuan books—after encountering Wyckoff, they’ve started to gather dust on the bookshelf.
Price, volume, and the supply-demand relationship are really fascinating. Before, watching K-line charts was like watching the show. Now every day I have to hold the book and flip through a few chapters—reading a bit, taking it in bit by bit—slowly gaining understanding.
The more I look, the more I realize: the market isn’t just moving randomly. I’ve started to see the underlying supply and demand, emotions, accumulation, and distribution.
And this is also after my own frequency reached a new stage— many things I couldn’t understand before (things I didn’t recognize) suddenly I can understand. New stage unlocked 🌟$BTC
