✅ DON'T TRADE AT SUCH MARKET!
The top trader on the centralized exchange Aguila Trades, who made $77 million this year, left for another decentralized platform - and immediately lost $12.47 million on his first Bitcoin long trade
Now he's reopened the trade: he opened a 1,894 BTC long with 20x leverage - for $200 million.
Then he has opened long on BTC again, and result - another loss of $17 million.
This is the third losing long position in two weeks - a total loss of $32.7 million dollars.
Today he opened a short on $BTC - and quickly fixed in a profit.

✅ LEARN THIS! LEARN ON MY MISTAKE !
One of the worst trades I've made in a while.
My mistake is that I succumbed to my emotions this time around much more than I could have imagined
I gave up too soon and locked in a minimal profit. And after that, the price went on to break a series of supports over the next few hours, sending the price of Ethereum to $2360. I fixed 0 profit (compared woth my target) at $2512.
If I had followed my strategy and despite the drawdown and emotions waited beyond the initial targets - I would have earned at least several times more.
Well. It's a bull market. Too much accumulation of the asset is being seen by the big players. ETH was not allowed to fall below $2500 for a long time and the support of the level was defended by the bulls very strongly. But when the price started to pump almost to $2600 - I could barely stand the liquidation and wanted to get out near zero faster (it's emotions, it's a big problem if you want to be a trader).
As a result, I got out very early, thinking that the price will not let it reach $2500 again. But it broke all the supports down and flew off to where we saw. I missed out on a bunch of profits.
That hits the psychology and emotions.
My mistakes: experiencing FOMO + gave up and didn't stick to the trading plan. This is categorically unacceptable. This micro profit could play me badly in the future. I am undermining my own plan and goals.
Don't do the same.
I will stand corrected.

🇺🇸📈🚨US national debt surpassed $37 trillion dollars - spending like there is no tomorrow
The Donald Trump administration added $800 billion dollars debt during the five months being in office.
Federal spending is $7.172 trillion, federal income $5.164.
Always Remember: there is no debt reduction in the parasitic and Ponzi known as the fiat money system.
Thats why cryptocurrencies were created and promoted to us - to reset their debt. Fiat financial system and other tradefi systems - are all scam.

🚨 BREAKING! X the everything app, as envisioned by Elon Musk himself.
On the way to make a clone of China’s WeChat, getting ready for the control grid and social credit system. All is underway and going according to plan.
Believe them when they tell you what they want and what they’re going to do.
This reminds me of Klaus Schwab’s predictions of a little while ago… economic crisis, limited wars, hacking events, powergrid issues, etc.
It is coming? No, it's here a long time while we were sleep.

"HE IS A REAL DUMMY! HE IS WORST!"
US President Donald Trump has again criticised Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, saying the man he put in the role during his last term had done a poor job. Trump’s remarks on June 18, 2025, came just before the US central bank announced its decision to hold interest rates steady for a fourth consecutive time. Powell said that despite elevated uncertainty, the country’s economy was “in a solid position”. While criticising Powell for not cutting rates, Trump mused about appointing himself to lead the Fed, claiming that he would do a “much better job than these people”.

F@&* Powell go to hell!
📝✅ What are the key points from FOMC - and what does it mean for asset markets?
This week's FOMC was a "steady as she goes" meeting.
Rates unchanged.
Fed chair Jerome Powell believes:
Financial conditions are meaningfully restrictive - labor market is weakening and inflation is falling.
But further progress must be seen on weakness in the labor market and/or inflation to see continued rate cuts - Fed not in a hurry to cut rates.
And, we finally got a question on Quantitative Tightening.
Powell said:
"The most recent data do suggest that reserves are still abundant. We do plan to reduce our balance sheet... We are closely monitoring a range of indicators to access conditions."
So, no change - QT continues.
So what does all of this mean for asset markets?
In my view, this meeting wasn't explicitly "bullish" or "bearish" for asset markets.
It was essentially "as you were".
And "as you were" is: inflation slightly elevated but not likely to move massively higher in the medium-term, growth humming along nicely, business cycle improving.
Asset markets initially sold off upon the release of the FOMC statement - which seemed to have a hawkish tilt due to a change in wording around inflation...
...but then recovered during the press conference when Powell confirmed the change of wording was a "clean-up" of the statement and not an indication of a change in the Fed's views on inflation.
I don't think there is anything to be fearful of here in relation to the Fed.
Rate hikes are seemingly not in the picture, the Fed is still "in a cutting cycle", but pausing.
To push higher, asset markets don't need the Fed to be continually cutting, they just need the Fed to be continually tilted towards further cutting.
In fact, the slower the cuts, the better - generally - because it indicates no panic.
Gold has already made a new all-time high today.
Risk assets have generally been trading in a range for months, but recently, on the whole, have been consolidating at the top of that range (bullish).
Everybody decided to panic about Chinese AI for ten minutes on Monday.
This actually created what looks like quite bullish price action.
Both the S&P 500 and bitcoin retested the Point of Control of the range (🟡) and bounced strongly back out of the range Value Area (sign of strength).
And in the current climate, a pause in rate cuts might mean the Treasury market stops freaking out, as it has done in recent months.
10-year Treasury yields have been falling since January 14, and have continued to decline following FOMC.
The Treasury yield indicator below (overlaid with S&P 500) flipped green on January 17.
This indicator aims to capture (in red) when yields are in the area that has historically negatively affected risk assets.
That "area" is when yields (US10Y) move to the 80th percentile of their rolling 1 quarter (63 day) range

✅ #FOMC 18 June 2025 Key Takeaways from Fed Chair Powell’s Remarks:
- Rate cuts are still on the table, but not just yet. The Fed expects the right conditions to emerge down the line.
- Holding off for a few more months will allow the Fed to make more informed, deliberate policy choices.
- Inflation is expected to remain elevated for the near future, and that pressure is not going away overnight.
- The job market is holding steady. Unemployment levels remain within an acceptable range.
- The full impact of inflationary pressures, especially from tariffs, will take time to become clear.
- The Fed revised its 2025 inflation outlook upward, largely due to the expected effects of new tariffs.
This meeting signals a clear pause, with the Fed staying patient and data-dependent

✅ URGENT! Key points from #FOMC meeting today:
1. Economy is in a solid position
2. During summer we will see the data which shows how much tariffs effect inflation and based on that decide our further set of actions
3. Labor market and unemployment rates are good for now but expecting some weakness during summer
4. FED stays on the course of their actions, they are very forward-looking and don't want to take immediate steps of changing policy until they see their goal of inflation and labor market data to be met
5. They are making buyouts of treasuries to show they are good guys - translation is wait some more buyouts of treasuries during summer
What I think (not financial advice):
1. During summer no changes in FED policy and QT won't fully end until September at least
2. Crypto prices will surge even without FED rate cuts
3. Pawel is well-positioned and guy is just doing his job to make sure economy is in a normal condition
4. We are getting close to final phase of bull run, so be prepared

I don’t expect a rate cut at all, so the markets with clear 99% vote that no rate cut will happen today. Again and what’s more interesting will be the speech of Jerome Powell. This will definitely bring volatility and I recommend the traders among you to watch the speech live and learn how the chart moves on certain statements. This will help you a lot

The last time BTC printed 12 red 1H candles was back in 2019 6 years ago. What was next do you remember?
Todays PA has been something we have not seen in half a decade. More than 5 years.
My trading style is simple - when I see s**t like this especially in a FED rate/FOMC day, I'm quitting. I prefer to wait in stablecoins. Who knows this old man Powell. Who knows this games between US/Israel/Iran/Pakistan and others. Who knows what about this rare 13 red candle behaviour.
Stay away from market today, guys. Not financial advice. DYOR

BIG ALERT: I just found the Fidelity Stablecoin Smart Contract on-chain 👀🧠
They’re gearing up for launch - waiting on the GENIUS Act to pass 💥🇺🇸
Once it does…
💸 TRILLIONS in stablecoins are coming to Ethereum
The floodgates are about to open 🌊🧱
ETH is the foundation. Don’t fade it.
Many big politicians share the ame predictions. For example senator Cynthia Lummis says:
“THE GENIUS ACT WILL PASS, THEN WE ARE HEADING STRAIGHT INTO MARKET STRUCTURE!“ 🇺🇸
RLUSD IS READY & WILL DO TO XRP WHAT USDT DID TO BTC! 📈
I think market cap will increase minimum x3-x10 times very soon. Not financial advice. DYOR

🤔US STABLECOIN MONOPOLY?!
The U.S. just passed a major crypto bill and barely anyone is talking about it.
It’s called the GENIUS Act, and it’s the first proper federal law focused on stablecoins.
This could change how stablecoins like USDC and USDT operate in the U.S. completely.
Under this new law, only licensed banks or fintechs will be allowed to issue payment stablecoins. And they’ll need to hold 100% reserves in cash or short-term Treasuries.
They’ll also need to publish monthly audits, follow AML/KYC rules, and give users priority in bankruptcy.
This gives a huge edge to USDC, Circle, and any U.S.-based player willing to play by the rules.
At the same time, this could pressure offshore options like USDT, which has always operated in a grey zone.
The GENIUS Act also opens the door for big banks and even tech giants to issue their own stablecoins. Think JPMorgan or Apple-backed digital dollars.
From a data standpoint, stablecoins are now too big to ignore. Over $150 Billion is circulating. USDT alone sees more volume than Visa on some days.
With this law, stablecoins become more trustworthy, and the path to institutional adoption becomes clearer.
But it’s not all bullish.
Smaller crypto-native projects might get locked out. DeFi protocols could struggle to comply. And power could shift back toward traditional finance.
Still, this is a big step toward integrating stablecoins into the U.S. financial system.
The real impact will be felt in the next 6 to 12 months once implementation starts.
If you're holding stables or building in crypto, this law changes the game.

✅ STOP TRADING BTC BEFORE THIS IMPORTANT REMINDER!
FIRSTLY, BTC is clearly forming a bearish pattern on 1H timeframe
Due to terrible news from political conflicts between Iran and Israel, Bitcoin could not hold the important $106,000 level
The last time we saw a "crash" like this, we got an V-shape recovery
This time we are not able to build up enough positive momentum
If we manage to break out throug the upper side ($106,000), a recovery seems likely
If we break out bearish, it seems like going back to $100,000 area
Of course any situation coud change directly due to new news
No matter what, $BTC is showing strength.
Only a few months ago, news like this caused crashes up to 20% and spread big sell of events
Now BTC is still trading above 100k levels in such a dificult time
It seems like BTC is oficially the new digital gold and "safe heaven" for investors
🙏🏼🤦🏻♂️ 17-18 june. FED rate. We'll see...

June FOMC Meeting: Powell Expected to Be Closed – Focus on Dot Plot and Geopolitical Risks
The June FOMC meeting is scheduled for tomorrow, June 18, 2025. I still expect no change in interest rates and expect Powell to adopt a more hawkish tone again. Powell has already appeared cautious in recent meetings due to the tariff discussions triggered by Trump. Now he is likely to act even more cautiously as the situation in the Middle East continues to escalate
An escalation there could cause oil prices to rise significantly, which in turn could further drive up the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and thus inflation
Above all, potential tariff inflation remains a risk factor that should not be underestimated
The dot plot will also be published; while I don't expect any drastic changes, I do expect a more hawkish adjustment compared to the March dot plot. At that time, the median key interest rate was still at 3.75% (375 bps) for the end of 2025
However, market expectations have since shifted significantly and currently predict fewer interest rate cuts. Therefore, an increase in the median forecast to a higher level is quite conceivable
Reminder: What is the Dot Plot?
The Dot Plot shows the interest rate expectations of the individual members of the Federal Reserve Board (FOMC). Each member anonymously marks where they see the key interest rate in the coming years. The higher the dots, the more interest rate hikes the members expect – and vice versa. The Dot Plot is published only four times a year and is an important indicator for the markets
A good example was the Dot Plot Update in December 2024: At that time, significantly fewer interest rate cuts were signaled than expected, to which the markets promptly reacted with a sell-off in risk assets.
In addition to the dot plot, the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) also provides new projections for:
- GDP Growth
- Unemployment Rate
- PCE Inflation & Core PCE Inflation
The current situation in the Middle East could prompt the Fed to adjust its inflation expectations.

A good example was the Dot Plot Update in December 2024: At that time, significantly fewer interest rate cuts were signaled than expected, to which the markets promptly reacted with a sell-off in risk assets.
In addition to the dot plot, the Summary of Economic Projections (SEP) also provides new projections for:
- GDP Growth
- Unemployment Rate
- PCE Inflation & Core PCE Inflation
The current situation in the Middle East could prompt the Fed to adjust its inflation expectations.

The cryptocurrency market is showing signs of fragility after $1 billion in liquidations were triggered by an unexpected rise in the Producer Price Index (PPI). Bitcoin briefly dipped below $112,000 as traders adjusted positions, while Ethereum ETFs saw strong inflows of $729 million despite the market turbulence. The market's sensitivity to macroeconomic indicators highlights the growing correlation between crypto and traditional markets.
💬 Do you think investors should change how they manage risks because crypto is acting more like traditional markets or do you see this more as a chance to make profits from new market opportunities?
