The commercial KTV economy is completely finished, and crackdowns are now underway across the country.
The most famous example is Hangzhou, where top commercial KTV venues such as Skyline and N11 have all shut down. Hangzhou’s commercial KTV economy was entirely driven by the e-commerce economy. At its peak, venues like Skyline and N11 were packed every day, attracting the highest-quality women from across the country, with standards no lower than those at Tian Shang Ren Jian.
Some people have linked the crackdown on commercial KTVs to the birth rate, but that is pure nonsense. Even if these t

Me: I’m just not going to pay into social security. Wouldn’t it be the same if I saved some money by then? 😐
Husband: No. No matter how hard or tiring it is, we have to pay into social security. 😤
Me: Why? 🤔
Husband: Because paying into social security is like raising one extra son,
and he might even be better than your biological son. 😏
Husband: No matter how tiring it is, you only need to support him for a while, not your whole life.
You don’t have to worry about how well he does in school,
he won’t pile a bunch of homework on you to tutor him,
and you definitely won’t have to rush to th

Yang Mouyuan of Wuhan University has quietly started living the good life.
Yang Mouyuan has now gone to Spain and should be pursuing a PhD at Carlos III University of Madrid. The IP address of her secondary account on Bilibili also shows Spain.
After Yang Mouyuan lost the lawsuit last year, Baptist University did not approve her PhD application, and she then disappeared from the public eye, learning to keep a low profile.
Unexpectedly, a year later, Yang Mouyuan had already gone to Spain and started pursuing a PhD at Carlos III University of Madrid, setting her life back on an upward trajector

Some people do not deserve to be called human. A 2-year-old child in Chongqing fell to his death from the 18th floor, and the child’s father’s nonchalant attitude left everyone stunned.
This man believed that the dog was more important than the child. He went out to walk the dog, leaving the 2-year-old child alone at home. The child woke up and, unable to find any adults, grabbed the blanket with one hand, walked to the balcony, stepped onto the bathing tub placed there, and climbed onto the one-meter-high balcony. The balcony had no security bars, so the child climbed over the edge and fell t

Hong Kong has seen a wife-killing case resulting from failed investments; highly leveraged investing can truly ruin lives.
A 51-year-old middle-aged IT man had a stable income, but after his investments failed, he ended up with a million in debt. His wife argued with him about it every day, and he finally snapped, killing her with a kitchen knife before turning himself in.
I suspect this IT man most likely bought Southern’s 2x Long SK Hynix at the peak in June, using borrowed money and leverage to go all in, which led to his million in debt. This fund was extremely popular in the first half of

The U.S. raised interest rates, yet $BTC surged to 76,500, $ETH climbed above 2,450, and $ZEC also jumped to 1,400, hitting a new high. Many people are confused: Isn’t a rate hike bearish?
What the market is really watching is not these 25 basis points, but the dot plot. Waller talked about “fine-tuning,” but the median dot-plot projection points directly to 4.1%—even more hawkish than what he said. Goldman Sachs originally bet on just one hike this year, but was proven wrong. This shows that Waller either cannot rein in the hawks or simply does not want to.
The market’s reaction was honest

One would eliminate capital gains tax on cryptocurrency fees of $10 or less
The other would require Bitcoin held by the federal government to be reserved for at least 20 years

Continue to be bullish on $ETH ; after the rate hike is implemented, target 3200.
The market is currently pricing in an 85% probability of a Fed rate hike, but this expectation is not reflected at all in current market movements. The rate hike will be a very bearish signal and will likely mean that the stock and crypto markets are approaching a short-term top.
I would very much like to see the rate hike implemented, with the market first sweeping liquidity to the downside before adding to my ETH position.
ETH is currently my largest cryptocurrency holding. I hope this rate hike will trigger a

The probability of a rate hike on the 17th exceeds 85%
Gold and silver fell first
With the vote on the crypto market structure bill imminent, BTC rose against the trend today. Seize the opportunity—if you have positions left over from last week, reduce them quickly and set stop-losses at breakeven
U.S. AI stocks plunged consecutively in premarket trading
Note that U.S. stocks will also be quite volatile this week, with potentially more violent swings, so pay attention to risk management
This week will bring the most important and tense moment for market sentiment so far this year

On Polymarket, the probability of a Fed rate hike in September has risen to 79%, while the probability of the Clarity Act passing has already fallen to 17%. And yet, a whole bunch of people still expect a bull market? 🥶🤡
The rate-hike probability has hit 70%, but the Fear and Greed Index is still sitting at 65
The market is fooling itself. ETH is still stubbornly holding above 2500—the only one in the whole market still standing. Everyone says it’s strong, but I don’t buy it. This strength is fake 🙃
In one week, the rate hike went from something nobody believed in to something nobody now da

What’s truly difficult isn’t whether you dare to place an order.
It’s whether you can resist placing an order when the opportunity hasn’t arrived.
Being out of the market doesn’t mean no trading,
being out of the market is itself a position.

Yesterday, after the CPI data came out, the market wicked down before surging and pulling back. Don’t let it be that when the Fed hikes rates, the market wicks down before surging and pulling back again, with retail investors being led around and toyed with like dogs by market manipulators. #CoinDesk披露GateRWA永续合约全球Top3

Bitwise Shuts Down Dogecoin Spot ETF Less Than a Year After Listing
Around September 11, asset manager Bitwise announced the liquidation and closure of its Dogecoin spot ETF. The product had been trading for less than a year; after its closure, the funds will be returned to holders and the shares will disappear from the market. The ETF was once seen as an experiment in “getting memecoins into traditional accounts.”
When an issuer voluntarily closes a product, common reasons include the fund being too small and management fees failing to cover operating costs—not Dogecoin transfers stopping or

The current global economic problem is actually quite typical: except for China, all countries are experiencing industrial decline and deindustrialization. Their few competitive industries cannot support their national economies, so debt in the US, Europe, and Japan keeps surging, their local currencies are depreciating, and they are being forced to raise interest rates as a last resort.
Europe has already raised interest rates for the second time today, and the US and Japan are next. If both Europe and Japan raise rates, the US actually does not have many options. It can either raise rates as

The oil-dollar-U.S. Treasury system forms a cycle: Gulf countries sell oil, receive dollars, and then use large amounts of those dollars to purchase U.S. Treasuries. As long as U.S. Treasuries continue to find buyers, the United States can borrow at relatively low interest rates and maintain its massive fiscal deficit. Iran may not necessarily need to defeat the U.S. military at sea. Its key leverage is to disrupt this cycle: - If the Strait of Hormuz remains severely disrupted for an extended period, oil prices will surge and global inflation will rise. - Once inflation picks up, markets will

Musk’s latest prediction concerns all of humanity
The world’s richest man, Elon Musk, has made a new prediction: Over the next one or two years, AI will eliminate a large number of humans. Moreover, those most likely to be crushed are not manual laborers, but white-collar workers sitting in offices.
Recently, Musk discussed AI at the G20 Innovation Ministers’ Meeting. He believes that over the next 12 to 18 months, AI’s capabilities in digital work such as programming could become so strong that humanity as a whole would be completely unable to compete.
He also offered an analogy. In the futur
