WE. ARE. SO. BACK. Okay, composure, Friday, GM.
Yesterday, Bitcoin did the thing. First daily candle close above the 1D 200 SMA since November, and, as Sykodelic points out, every single time this has happened in Bitcoin’s history, it has marked the end of the bear market.
Every time. I spent the evening checking the levels for yesterday’s closure with Krown; four of his eight bottom signals have now flipped, and the closure itself was the heavyweight.
As I’m typing this, Bitcoin is at $78K. The old $65,631 ceiling that rejected us five times is now the floor I never want to see again.
All timeframes are ALIGNING for a macro bottom confirmation, we're gonna be so back, boys and girls. Check out this summary and get bullish, it’s the cleanest walkthrough of why this close was different.
And the fuel is not just charts. Make sure you understand the Bessent story, because it’s the most bullish macro development in months, years even:
The 30-year yield hit a 19-year high at 5.34% last week, and instead of praying, the Treasury announced it will at LEAST double its long-end buybacks: $2 billion per operation becomes $4 billion, with twice as many operations per quarter, running September 9 through November 4. Then Bessent went on TV and said it could be more than the $4 billion, that there’s “nothing magic about the $40 trillion figure”, and that fiscal consolidation news is coming within days.
Translation for humans: the Treasury buys old, long-dated bonds that nobody wants and pays for them with fresh T-bills. Debt stays the same, but DURATION leaves the market, and cash-like paper replaces it. That’s Operation Twist run from the Treasury building, QE-shaped liquidity without the Fed touching a thing, and it’s why long yields dropped on the spot while Bitcoin added $280 billion of market cap in 24 hours, liquidating $3.5 billion of positions on the way, the 7th largest liquidation event in history, 8.6 shorts nuked for every long.
This video explains the whole mechanism better than anyone. Watch it; it’s worth your time.
Next week is loaded:
Wednesday is the everything day (durable goods, Q2 GDP second estimate, July core PCE around 3.3%, then NVDA earnings after close), and Jackson Hole runs Thursday through Saturday with Warsh’s first keynote as Chair on Friday. The theme is literally “Financial Innovation: Implications for Payments and Policy”. I don’t expect Warsh to hand us anything substantial. The man deleted forward guidance as a concept. September stays priced roughly 71% hold and 28% hike, so the tape trades its own momentum until Wednesday.
Now, the part where I keep you alive:
This indicator says a lot, too; the long downtrend structure has broken, and the macro bottom keeps confirming unless something drastic happens by the end of the month.
So, don’t be afraid when pullbacks happen. And they WILL happen, longs are paying up to 97% annualized funding to chase some coins right now, which always gets flushed.
Also (hehe),here’s the volatility expansion we were expecting and talking about for weeks, a rare 5.8-sigma daily move, the strongest upside spike since October 2023. Expansion cuts both ways. I mapped the coil on Wednesday, and it fired up. The aftershocks come next.
For those of you sidelined and hurting, here’s one that might interest you. Price is sitting right at the anchored VWAP from the all-time high, the exact zone where previous cycles built their launch pads. You did NOT miss anything. We still operate inside lower highs on the high timeframes; there’s no rush. Stay patient, position on dips, then stay even more patient.
Bullieve, but with a plan.

Breakout day report card, and I’m going to enjoy this one:
✅ ENA - called Aug 3 at $0.088 → $0.1396 today (+59%) - the day’s leader, and Wednesday I told you the Risk Committee reveal was “the biggest dormant catalyst on this beat”
✅ PUMP - called Aug 5 at $0.00252 → $0.00385 today (+53%) - the other leader of the day, buybacks plus breakout beta
✅ ZEC - called Aug 3 at $472 → $652 today (+38%) - 81% through the turnstile, snapshot in three days
✅ NEST - called Aug 5 at $11.2M FDV → $13.7M today (+22%) - Monday’s honest red is now green, more below
❌ ORANGE - the honest one: CUT as DEAD at -99.6% from the Aug 11 call - fomo lottery tickets stay lottery tickets on green days too, full body count in the Green List ledger below
Mokus called the whole thing on Tuesday, three months of waiting, one tweet:

We’ve been pounding the table on Hyperliquid since this letter’s first edition, the $163 million Circle switch, the smart money flipping long, the unlock math. Called perfectly, and it’s still early: US access isn’t approved yet, it’s “being worked on”. That gap is where the trade lives.
Arkham surfaced the position of the cycle: trader “watershedpath” has been long HYPE since October 2025, $55M grew to $99.7M, up $46.3 million in profit, and he just took $10M off the table:

He’s long $100M of HYPE. Trader “watershedpath” has been long HYPE for almost a year, since October 2025. His position has now grown from $55M to $99.7M as HYPE’s price rebounded. He is now up $46.3M in profit, and withdrew $10M from this position to Coinbase just last night.

Told you Monday, the machine pays even when the chart doesn’t. The chart caught up: NEST ripped to $13.7 million FDV, +46% off Wednesday’s level, and I don’t think we ever see the sub-$10M cheap level again.
This is the Aerodrome of HyperEVM, a ve(3,3) DEX where 100% of protocol revenue goes to the token, nearly $2.5 million paid to voters in under nine months, on the chain the President just green-lit.

The degen advice: you can still buy the discount. HyperWarp just launched as a marketplace for locked veNFTs (hyperwarp.fi).
veNEST positions are listed below spot value because they’re locked; you buy the lock, and you collect the vote revenue the whole way through. Honesty line: the venue is brand new with near-zero volume so far, listings are thin, size accordingly. But buying locked governance positions at a discount while the underlying re-rates is exactly the kind of trade nobody does until it’s obvious.

Willy’s framing is the one that sticks:
“…agents shouldn’t help you trade MORE, they should help you trade BETTER, and a green book is the only proof that counts. Week 2 is LIVE with the board reset to zero, same $20K pool, same rules (2 days of chart analysis, 2 days of trades, one agent, $50K volume), settles August 26 at 13:00 UTC, and the team is teasing an easter egg on top. The design still favors small smart accounts. Go be one.”

The tokenized-stock casino doubled from $7.8M FDV at Monday’s feature to nearly $16M, cooled -18% today, and the updates underneath got MORE interesting than the chart: the treasury added $225K in 24 hours to ~$1.73 million, growing 13.2% against 1.5% token inflation, so backing per token rose 10.4% in a day:

Add the new TURBO desk (546 option-style cards sold in two days, calls selling out in 30 minutes, a claimed 126% net APR for RWA depositors) and community-built Dune dashboards tracking NAV per token, and this thing is evolving from casino into a weird little onchain Berkshire of degeneracy.
Numbers are the team’s own; verify on the community dashboard. Standing warnings hold: $2M-class microcap, live mint function, one LP holder. Chips are for playing, not marrying.
On Wednesday, I said I wanted the V2 ship date before saying more. It’s shipping NOW:

$PONS sits at $30 million, +34% since Wednesday’s letter where I said the structure was POTENTIALLY bottoming. Potentially is doing less work in that sentence now.
Quick follow-up on the Stonkbroker machine from Monday: the CLOCKIN launch angered every sniper on the chain, which means the anti-snipe mechanism worked exactly as designed, and goon’s numbers say the launcher printed $1.78 million of revenue in 24 hours off ONE hyped launch, ranked #1 on the chain above Uniswap and Pons (his math, receipts in the tweet):

Standing warning to the chasers: ZEC funding runs at +76% annualized; you’re paying real money to be late. Spot accumulation is how the whale above does it. Note the difference.
$1.90, +11% on the call, and the confidential-compute tracker keeps climbing. But NEAR funding is +97% ANNUALIZED, the most crowded long on the entire funding board. I like the beat, I don’t like paying 97 cents a year per dollar to hold it with leverage. Spot only up here.

Four, not five. The fifth-best sheet today had a rugged-token creator history and I don’t print those for any target.
📒 Marked to market (the honesty ledger, every prior pick, and today it bites):
✅ BULLSHIT +11% WIN - called Wednesday at $3.53M, now $3.91M and +45% on the day, the unlocked-Meteora warning stands
✅ DPG +105% open - but it took a -39% day off the +163% peak. Wins decay too, take profits like a thief ➖ Qenis +9% open, faded from +40, the copycat warning stands
❌ SOLUG DEAD -99.8% - Wednesday’s top scorer round-tripped to DUST in 48 hours. Every gate passed, still died, that’s what 30x churn on $79K liquidity does. This is why I say starter bags and lottery tickets, shown not hidden
❌ ORANGE DEAD -99.6% - the Aug 11 call is dust, closed ❌ MemeSeason CUT -65% and
ź❌ MOMO CUT -46% - both closed out
---
CATE (Solana) - the old cat revived: $36M FDV, +173% today on $14.7M volume, 179,522 holders (!), LP 99.9% locked, top-10 just 13.5%. The one flag my filter raised: 254 tagged insider wallets in the graph. Big crowd, real distribution, watch the insiders
BULLBALLS (Solana) - day-old bull-market meme with the cleanest sheet on the board: $6.7M, +367%, 11,408 holders, LP 100% locked, top-10 owns THREE POINT FIVE percent, zero flagged insiders. The name is the timing. Chase math applies after +367%
AI (Robinhood Chain) - the day’s weirdest pair: a meme called AI trading AGAINST tokenized NVDA, $18.3M FDV, +125%. My filter says LOOK, DON’T TOUCH: proxy contract (upgradeable) and the top LP position unlocked, which on this chain is the signature rug setup. Radar only

While CT stared at candles, biotech quietly became the momentum sector of 2026. The numbers first: XBI is +31.4% YTD versus +12.8% for the S&P, +85% over one year, and healthcare funds absorbed $2.44 billion of fresh money in July while AI-heavy growth funds BLED $7.2 billion. The rotation out of the crowded AI-capex trade has a destination, and it’s this.
The spark plug: Moderna went +176% IN ONE DAY last Wednesday when its Merck-partnered mRNA cancer vaccine hit both endpoints in Phase 3 melanoma, the first individualized mRNA cancer therapy to ever clear that bar. It gave back 24% the next day, that’s what parabolas do, but the science headline doesn’t un-happen.
Why does this keep running:
The M&A engine is historic: $106 billion of biotech deals by June, faster than any year since pre-Covid, with big pharma sitting on $2.1 TRILLION of firepower while $200B+ of annual drug revenue falls off patent by 2030 (Keytruda, the world’s best-selling drug, goes 2028). Takeout premiums are running 50-86%
Rates are the fuel line: small-cap biotech is a duration trade, and September hike odds collapsed from 82% to ~28% after the jobs miss. Same macro turn that lit crypto’s candle
The binary calendar is LOADED: Capricor’s FDA decision lands TOMORROW (Aug 22, negative AdCom on record, pure lottery ticket, analyst targets run $5 to $28 on the same stock), Novo’s CagriSema obesity verdict comes ~October, and the full Moderna data drops at ESMO late October
The degen bridge: you don’t even need a broker. BIO Protocol, the DeSci index bet, is +15% today, moving with the sector, and Hyperliquid’s HIP-3 equity venues added a biotech category this year, 24/7 leverage on the exact names above. Crypto rails, biotech beta.
The bear ledger, because I keep you honest: Wednesday was a -3.6% profit-taking flush across XBI, Moderna trades ~49% ABOVE its consensus price target, pharma tariffs hit the broad market September 29, and if Warsh sounds hawkish at Jackson Hole the whole duration trade reverses. Trade the sector, respect the calendar.

NVDA reports Wednesday, August 26, consensus ~$92 billion revenue, roughly DOUBLE a year ago. Same day as PCE and the Circle switch on Hyperliquid. Everything day
Semis stayed nervous into it, the sector’s worst stretch in weeks, while biotech eats its flows (see above). One earnings print re-arms or breaks the whole AI tape
Aave’s numbers went vertical with the breakout, the bullish dashboard made the rounds, +12.5% today. DeFi blue chips finally waking up is itself an AI-adjacent tell: the risk curve is extending

TVL at a 3-month high (now $86.2B and climbing since this tweet), DEX and perp volumes at their highest since June, $50M+ of daily fees, and the ETFs having their biggest inflow week since JANUARY:

That last one is the tell. January was the top of the last euphoria wave. The pipes are flowing again.
Thirteen hours before the rip, a fresh wallet deposited $20M USDC into Hyperliquid and opened a 4x long on 20,000 ETH. He’s up $6.66 million already:
Lookonchain@lookonchain
What a coincidence! 13 hours ago, a whale created a new wallet (0xedcd), deposited 20M $USDC into Hyperliquid, and opened a 4x long on 20,000 $ETH($45.38M). Shortly after he opened the position, $ETH started surging. He is now sitting on an unrealized profit of $6.66M.

Somebody always knows. The paid desk section today is entirely about who’s positioned how after the breakout, including one account that did NOT survive it.

Lighter x Robinhood Wallet’s FIRST weekly points drop is TODAY. If you farmed the 2x in-wallet rate this week, check the drop; if you didn’t, the program keeps running and $LIT is live so the points convert to something real. US and UK excluded
Axis Robotics is the best $0 farm on the board right now per Beiu, and I agree with his reasoning: task-based, high-friction, sybil-resistant by nature, which means humans who actually do it keep the whole pie:
Beiu@0xbeiu
This @axisrobotics campaign is the best sybyl resistant 0$ farm for low capital users right now It's high friction and impossible to sybyl by nature and these are the type of projects I love to bet on So I completed more tasks today Anyone can do it, it's not rocket science,
Beiu @0xbeiu
Not many of you know, but I'm a robotics engineer by profession So when @axisrobotics launched, I had to check it up and was quite impressed by their idea What you can do on their app is to train robots in order to accelerate physical AI - it sounds complex and complicated, but

What is actually growing
Where revenue is flowing
Which tokens capture value
Where valuations make sense
A clear framework for finding and judging high-upside opportunities.
Today we’ve got:
The full post-breakout book of every profitable desk we track - the liquidation, the nine-figure fade, the margin add, and the winner who pressed
The three tickers where funding says the crowd is offside by double digits - exact annualized numbers
A bear whale fighting the entire board at once - the wallet, the legs, the pain threshold
Krown’s exact levels for the reclaimed range - the floor that must hold, the trigger that must break, bull AND bear scenarios
The farm rotation pays three-digit APRs on one chain, exact pairs, exact risk tiers, refreshed for the new tape
A pre-TGE grind with a hard September deadline and a method I’m personally using to climb it
The whale ledger, both directions - who front-ran the candle with eight figures and who’s quietly feeding exits into it
