On the Fed’s Rate Cuts At Powell’s congressional testimony last night, I personally think the most important part is this: you could say he was dodging direct answers (like practicing Tai Chi), but he also outlined the Fed’s decision-making path going forward:

•

If inflation isn’t as strong as expected or the labor market weakens, a rate cut could come earlier;

•

But if inflation and the labor market remain strong, then the cut would come later. It will take time to observe—seems like it all hinges on inflation and labor data from July and August. Previously, it was believed that with final tariffs expected to settle around the 10% level, inflation would have a one-time effect (not lasting too long). The recent Israel ceasefire mainly pulled oil prices down, which weakens the upward pressure on June inflation.

Personally, I previously expected a September cut to be more likely—let’s see if that turns out accurate.

US Stock Market Alt Season The current “altcoin season” in the crypto market presents an awkward contrast when compared to the stock market. Reflecting on the past two and a half years, the wealth creation effect on crypto has been underwhelming. Beyond Bitcoin, very few altcoins have outperformed stocks like NVIDIA, not to mention other high-flyers such as $PLTR, $APP, or crypto-linked equities like $COIN, $MSTR, and $HOOD.

Short-term speculative spikes are meaningless—what. What truly matters is an asset’s ability to recover and sustain value after corrections. Yet, many crypto tokens (and even some of today’s hot crypto-related stocks) surge briefly only to fade permanently.

From an investment perspective, returns alone are insufficient; durability and predictability are equally critical.

100,000 Users Exit: Those Who Lost Money in Binance Alpha

•

After the flash crashes of $ZKJ and $KOGE, activity on Binance Alpha has seen a significant decline. According to Dune data, the number of Alpha trading users plummeted from a peak of 233,000 on June 12 to 195,000 on June 15 — a sharp drop of nearly 40,000 users in just three days. As of today, the number of users actually making trades on the platform has further decreased to 70,000, revealing a cliff-like drop in user enthusiasm and participation. Meanwhile, the marginal cost of point farming has risen substantially, and the cost-effectiveness of the Alpha game is rapidly deteriorating.

Tonight, by applying dual pressure — withdrawing large amounts of liquidity and continuous selling — they triggered the successive collapse of both $ZKJ and $KOGE, leaving no survivors.
