The most magical part of this bull market is that: BTC, ETH, and BNB all hit new highs, yet the market is full of panic — yesterday it dropped a bit, and the voices of "U.S. stocks are about to crash, dragging the crypto market down" and "liquidity is being drained" emerged again. No one dares to believe that the bull market has really arrived, let alone hope for an altcoin season. But in fact, what the main players want is this effect of "retail investors panicking and not daring to enter the market"; only when you are ground down to numbness will the upward space truly open up.
1. First, break the misconception: "U.S. stocks draining liquidity from the crypto market"? That's purely overthinking.
When the market drops, all sorts of ridiculous bearish reasons come out, the most typical being "U.S. stocks are too high and will drop; if they drop, the crypto market will crash" and "the rise in U.S. stocks drains liquidity from the crypto market" — but if you think about it a little, you'll know this is illogical:

ETH broke through a key level, and many people shouted, "It will drop below 4000," but I chose to go long instead — it’s not about luck, but understanding the "liquidation logic" and the "short trap": now that shorts are crowded, continuing to sell off is not beneficial for the main players; instead, after clearing out the long positions, the probability of a significant rise is much greater than a deep drop.
1. First, calculate the liquidation: 4200 long positions have been cleared, and there’s "no profit to be made" by pushing lower.
First, it’s important to understand a core concept: the purpose of the main players selling off is to "liquidate long positions for the price difference," not to "blindly push to zero."
Previously, a large number of long positions piled up around the 4200 dollar mark, and this drop to below 4150 has basically cleared out those long positions — the main players have already profited from the "liquidation of long positions," and their cost basis is now lower;

The crypto market has just experienced a "quake"! Federal Reserve Chairman Powell's fierce confrontation with Trump has directly turned the market upside down, with Ethereum (ETH) plummeting to $4077. What exactly triggered this storm? Will there be even bigger storms coming? Let's take a look together.
Powell's tough stance causes market panic selling
Just now, Powell gave a resolute response to Trump's camp's call for a 50 basis point rate cut: "There is no broad support for a 50 basis point rate cut." This statement was like a heavy bomb, instantly stirring up waves in the market. All along, Trump has frequently pressured the Federal Reserve to cut rates significantly in order to stimulate the economy and consolidate his political advantage, trying to drive investment and consumption through low interest rate policies to promote a new round of economic growth. But Powell has shown no signs of compromise, firmly upholding the independence of the Federal Reserve's monetary policy.

Recently, the market for ETH has indeed been frustrating — not only is it rising slowly, but when it falls, it can be quite fierce, and many people have lost patience with this 'weak oscillation'. However, a closer look at the market reveals that the current 'dullness' is actually 'the energy buildup before the storm'. In the next 3-4 days, ETH is likely to surge upwards first, harvesting a wave of shorts!
1. First, understand the current situation: oscillation narrowing + a bearish funding environment, which instead hides reversal signals
First, two key facts must be clarified:
K-line narrows to 'extreme': Recently, the volatility range of ETH has become increasingly smaller, especially on the daily chart, with the bodies of consecutive K-lines being very narrow, and trading volume shrinking accordingly — this is not 'lying flat', but rather both bulls and bears are 'holding back their big moves'. Once the range is broken, the direction will be very clear;

The Federal Reserve's interest rate decision has finally been settled, and at this moment, the altcoin market seems calm, but in reality, there are undercurrents. Let me be honest with you: the market risk is extremely high right now, and as I always say — don't touch high-leverage contracts; preserving your principal is the top priority in a bull market. Based on past market trends after interest rate cuts, the market has never been 'soaring to the sky,' but rather follows the rhythm of 'first washing, then absorbing funds, and finally exploding' — this time is likely no exception.

First, look at the short term: In the next 10 days, the altcoin market is very likely to enter a period of 'up and down fluctuations.' It might collectively drop 5% today, making you anxious to cut your losses; tomorrow it might suddenly rise 5%, tempting you to chase high prices — this kind of repeated back-and-forth market movement is essentially the 'washing' strategy of the main players. The purpose is simple: to shake off impatient retail investors who cannot withstand the volatility while quietly collecting low-priced chips. Don't be intimidated by this fluctuation; the more it fluctuates, the more it shows that the main players are building momentum for future trends. Enduring it means opportunity.

In the roller coaster of cryptocurrency, Dogecoin (DOGE) has recently become the market focus. As the countdown to the Dogecoin ETF listing begins, a series of market signals suggest that a new trend may be brewing, with the actions of the market makers already surfacing. How can retail investors gain insights into opportunities, avoid risks, and seek survival and development in this game? Next, let us delve into the analysis.
Technical Analysis: $0.238 strong support builds a 'safety cushion', $0.3 strong resistance becomes the 'charging target'
From the latest K-line chart, Dogecoin is currently in the critical double support range of $0.238 - $0.26. The MA5 and MA10 dual moving averages show a bullish arrangement, and the MA20 is steadily forming medium-term support at $0.24, echoing the current neutral state of the RSI indicator at 53.30. The market's bullish and bearish forces are maintaining a delicate balance at this stage. It is worth noting that the key resistance level at $0.27 has undergone three effective tests, and the MACD indicator has successfully formed a golden cross above the zero axis. This series of technical signals collectively suggests that the probability of Dogecoin breaking upward in the short term exceeds 60%. Once it breaks $0.27, based on the Fibonacci 0.618 retracement level, the price is expected to hit $0.29. If it can coincide with daily trading volume expanding to $20 billion, the strong resistance level at $0.3 is not out of reach.

1. Market sentiment has significantly warmed, entering the 'Greed' zone
Today's fear and greed index has surged to 55, marking a strong shift in market sentiment from the previous neutral state to the 'Greed' zone. Behind this change, the robust recovery of the altcoin market has played a core driving role. Recently, many altcoins have shown explosive growth in prices, with several cryptocurrencies achieving double-digit or even higher percentage increases in a short period. For example, some niche altcoins with innovative application scenarios or unique community cultures have seen price increases exceeding 50% within a week. This significant wealth effect has attracted a large number of investors, with previously cautious funds flooding into the altcoin market, significantly increasing investors' risk appetite. As market activity has notably increased, trading volumes have continued to expand, creating a strong speculative atmosphere in the market. Investors' optimistic expectations for the cryptocurrency market are gradually replacing the previous cautious wait-and-see attitude, laying the emotional foundation for further market upward movement.

In the cryptocurrency market on September 13, 2025, Ethereum (ETH) shone like a dazzling star, with a price trend that was extremely striking. Its price strongly broke upward, once surpassing the important threshold of 4700 USD, and this significant surge instantly ignited the market's enthusiasm, attracting the attention of numerous investors and causing the entire cryptocurrency field to boil. However, behind this exciting breakthrough, the future direction of the market is full of uncertainties, like a fog waiting for us to clear. Next, let us delve into the various key aspects of this wave of Ethereum's market movement to provide investors with clear market insights and practical investment guidance.

Dear friends in the crypto circle, recently Solana (SOL) has performed spectacularly in the market, like a dazzling new star, soaring from just over 200 dollars to quickly rise above 230 dollars. This impressive surge has attracted countless eyes, and many friends have messaged asking: "Rui, with SOL's current momentum, can we still chase it? Will there be a pullback later?" Don't worry, today Rui will analyze SOL's market from both technical and fundamental perspectives, providing practical trading advice so you'll have a clear understanding after reading.
Technical Analysis: Key levels determine market direction

In the grand chess game of the financial markets, every move of the Federal Reserve is crucial. Currently, the 'piece' of interest rate cuts is poised on the board, ready to strike. According to the Chicago Mercantile Exchange's FedWatch tool data, as of September 9th, the market's expectation for a 25 basis point rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September has surged to about 88%, and even the possibility of a 50 basis point cut has reached 12%. This strong expectation sharply heated up after the release of August's non-farm employment data, where the U.S. added only 22,000 jobs in August, far below the market expectation of 75,000, and the unemployment rate climbed to 4.3%, reaching a nearly four-year high.

Recently, the price of Ethereum (ETH) has experienced a significant decline, attracting widespread attention in the market. The pullback from the high point in mid-August was evident, even briefly falling below $4200, leaving investors worried. So, what are the reasons behind the sharp drop in ETH? What will the future hold? Let's delve into the analysis.

From a market dynamics perspective, the outflow of ETF funds has become a major source of downward pressure on the ETH price. This week, there has been a large-scale outflow of funds from Ethereum-related ETFs, with the spot Ethereum ETF recording an outflow of $196.7 million on Monday, marking the second largest single-day outflow in history. Top issuers like BlackRock and Fidelity saw significant reductions, with BlackRock's fund decreasing by $87 million and Fidelity withdrawing $79 million. The large-scale withdrawal of institutional funds could be due to short-term profit-taking or to reduce risk exposure, which undoubtedly has a heavy impact on the ETH price.

A major announcement from traditional finance giant BlackRock has sent ripples through the global cryptocurrency market, much like a boulder thrown into a still lake, particularly spotlighting the Ethereum community. BlackRock's spot Ethereum ETF has achieved crucial progress, becoming today's most notable focal point in the crypto space.
BlackRock submits revised application for spot Ethereum ETF
Global asset management behemoth BlackRock has today submitted a revised S-1 application for its planned spot Ethereum ETF. Looking back, BlackRock's ETF (IBIT) has performed remarkably, achieving significant success; this step into the Ethereum sector undoubtedly injects a dose of 'steroid' into the market.

When it comes to Sun Yuchen ('Sun Cut') operations in the crypto circle, veteran investors always recall the sensational 'market crash farce' from the 2017 ICO era—now in the WLFI incident, his defense is strikingly similar to that year, only the project has changed, but the essence is still the old routine of 'avoiding core questions and shifting the focus of contradictions.'
First, let's take the time back to 2017, when the cryptocurrency ICO boom was in full swing. Sun Yuchen's TRX (Tron) and Martian's Xu Zijin's HSR (Braised Pork, later renamed HC) had a seemingly close cooperative relationship. To create the heat of a 'strong alliance,' the two publicly announced a 'token swap,' toasting and calling each other brothers in front of the cameras, sending a signal to the market of 'deep binding and jointly promoting the market.' However, no one expected that just after this 'friendship show' ended, Sun Yuchen secretly took action—on the night of the swap's completion, a large amount of HSR was concentrated and sold off, directly leading to a cliff-like collapse in HSR's price.

The cryptocurrency market experienced a sudden and severe shake-up. An organization linked to the Trump family suddenly froze two core wallets under Sun Yuchen's name, locking up 1.42 billion WLFI tokens valued at 3.5 billion RMB. At the same time, Eric Trump, the second son of Trump, quickly deleted all photos with Sun Yuchen and unfollowed him, leading to the collapse of what seemed to be a stable political and business partnership within 24 hours.

From close allies to urgent disconnection: A plot twist in 48 hours

The dramatic turn of events began 48 hours ago at a private dinner in Miami. According to on-site sources, Eric Trump and Sun Yuchen sat side by side at the main table, frequently toasting and conversing. Eric even publicly declared, "Mr. Sun is an important global partner for our family." This statement sparked a frenzy in the cryptocurrency market for WLFI tokens, with retail investors rushing to buy in, driving the price up by 12% in a single day.

The current market pattern of Ethereum ($ETH) is permeated with a strong "calm before the storm" atmosphere. On-chain data and market position structures point towards an unprecedented liquidation showdown, with the presence of large-scale long and short liquidation orders adding uncertainty and explosive potential to market trends.

According to the latest monitoring data from Coinglass, Ethereum is in a highly sensitive price range: at the lower level of $4084, there are as much as $1.54 billion in long orders piled up. Once the price drops below this critical threshold, these long positions will instantly trigger forced liquidations, creating a massive "long squeeze" market; while at the upper level near $4484, there are also $1.526 billion in short liquidation orders waiting. If the price breaks through this resistance level, shorts will face the risk of a concentrated liquidation.

The current market trend of Ethereum (\(ETH) is showing a similar “time for space” wash logic as LINK (\)LINK. The core of this method lies in sifting through the market's chips through long-term range fluctuations, rather than sharp price volatility, to patiently wear down investors with high expectations for short-term gains and unstable holding confidence, clearing the selling pressure obstacles for the subsequent trending market.

However, compared to the more volatile altcoins, Ethereum, with its core position in the crypto market and a large holding base, shows stronger “anti-wash” properties. Most long-term investors focusing on the Ethereum ecosystem have a deeper understanding of its value logic, so even when facing continuous sideways movement, they can maintain a higher holding determination, which sharply contrasts with altcoin investors who tend to frequently change hands during back-and-forth fluctuations.

In the cryptocurrency circle, there seems to be an almost instinctive intuition that interest rate cuts will instantly trigger a bull market. But is reality really that simple and direct? When we turn the pages of history, we find that the real story is far more complex and tortuous than imagined. Today, let's take a closer look at how Bitcoin is likely to react in the context of interest rate cuts and where the future market may head. If you find this helpful, don't forget to like, share, and save, thank you for your support!

First, let's dispel a myth: interest rate cuts are by no means a 'Doraemon's magical pocket' that can flood the market with liquidity overnight. An interest rate cut is more like a signal, indicating that the market environment is about to change, but for liquidity to truly flow smoothly in the market, it still takes time. Looking back at the 2008 financial crisis and the 2019 economic adjustment period, the market experienced a painful decline before hitting bottom, without exception. At that time, the cryptocurrency market was not yet formed, but the performance of traditional financial markets is enough to enlighten us. Under economic downward pressure, even if the central bank opens the interest rate cut channel, market panic remains strong, asset prices continue to decline, and only when market confidence gradually recovers and risk appetite rises again will risk assets like cryptocurrencies follow the trend and warm up.

Today, the financial market's attention is focused on the upcoming non-farm payroll data. At this critical juncture, the cryptocurrency market is also seeing undercurrents. Let's get straight to the point without further ado, but before analyzing the impact of non-farm data, let's take a look at the current trends of several mainstream cryptocurrencies.
ETH: Long and short are at a stalemate, key support is about to be tested
ETH's current small-scale trend still maintains a fluctuating pattern, and we should focus on the 4-hour and daily levels.

From the 4-hour level, ETH is still holding on to the Vegas channel and the key position of EMA144/169. It can be clearly seen from the chart that the support below is roughly in the range of 4150 - 4050, which I have clearly marked in the related charts. This support range is crucial; if the price stabilizes here, the bulls may still have the strength to counterattack; once it breaks down, the bears may further expand their gains.

The ever-changing tides of the financial market always catch people off guard. Just like that, overnight, the probability of interest rate cuts has significantly decreased, and this news has instantly become the focus of global attention. For ordinary people like us, the biggest concern is how our wallets will be affected.

Before delving into this issue, let's pay attention to a significant piece of news. U.S. Treasury Secretary Bennett recently revealed that before September, Stephen Milan is very likely to join the Federal Reserve. This Mr. Milan is no ordinary person; his resume is impressive. Looking back at the 2008 financial crisis, when Wall Street was in a panic, he helped stabilize the situation with a series of measures; when the European debt crisis broke out in 2012 and the European economy was on the brink, he stepped up again, using outstanding strategies to withstand the impact of the debt crisis, making him the 'firefighter' of the financial world, specialized in extinguishing various financial 'blazes.'

Recently, the Ethereum market has been quite turbulent, with price trends showing an astonishing similarity to last week, causing the emotions of many investors to fluctuate. The price first rapidly plunged to around $4300, and this swift decline instantly ignited tension in the market, with many investors worrying whether the market would face a new round of deep adjustments. However, a dramatic turnaround soon followed, with the Ethereum price quickly stabilizing and strongly reclaiming the $4300 level, followed by a steady upward movement, peaking at around $4500, where it faced some pressure, and the current price is fluctuating slightly below the pressure level.
