$ASTER is still one of the best positioned plays in crypto.
Lowest fees in the space, one of the fastest growing perp DEXs, Binance ecosystem integration, and direct exposure to RWAs, equities, commodities, and massive on-chain volume.
The new UI is elite. Fast, smooth, responsive.
Still early enough to farm points and position for future airdrops tied to an ecosystem with endless upside potential.
My main market play this cycle.
Trade, stake, and get familiar:

“I just need to make it all back” is one of the most dangerous things you can tell yourself as a trader.
You take a loss, and suddenly every trade after it has a job to do. Get the account back to where it was. Recover the week. Make the mistake feel like it never happened.
So you start taking setups you would normally ignore. You increase your size because a normal win won’t recover enough. You hold a bad position longer because accepting another loss feels unbearable.
Losing is part of trading. You can follow your plan and still lose. You can also make a stupid decision, recognise it and change how you trade. Neither requires you to win the money back immediately.
But refusing to accept a loss will usually turn something manageable into something much harder to recover from.
Ask yourself honestly. Would you take this trade, at this size, if you weren’t trying to make something back?
If the answer is no, you already know what’s driving the decision.
There is nothing embarrassing about taking a loss or finishing the week down. You don’t have to force another trade just so you can feel better about the last one.
But learning how to lose is just as important as learning how to win. Accepting a loss, being honest about your mistakes and keeping your discipline afterwards are all part of becoming a better trader.

BREAKING: The FBI announces that North Korea was behind the $6.3 billion hack of Binance, now the largest hack in history.
North Korean hackers were previously accused by the FBI of some of the biggest crypto hacks.
This includes the $1.5 billion Bybit attack last year and the 2022 theft of $620 million in cryptocurrency.
North Korea is now responsible for both the first and second largest crypto hacks in history.
$BTC starting to bounce from the $76K–$77K zone I was watching
First step taking shape. Now looking for a $78K reclaim and a higher low to strengthen the setup toward $80K–$82K.
Still bullish while $76K holds. Let’s see this recovery build.
$BTC swept below $78K. Now watching for a base around $76K–$77K, a reclaim of $78K, then a higher low to set up the next push.
This is the recovery path I’m watching toward $80K–$82K. Reclaim first, fireworks after.
The next leg could be loading.

Binance is buying back the stolen assets through market channels and OTC deals.
Over the past 8 hours, Ethena(@ethena) has deposited 128.63M $ENA ($24M) into #Binance.

JUST IN: 🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iranian negotiators to hold talks in Qatar on Saturday for potential US deal.
Bitcoin still looks strong to me after yesterday’s largest crypto hack on record. That tells you something.
Bad news is a real test of a market’s strength. If $BTC keeps holding its ground through this, the bullish case only gets stronger.
Still bullish. The next leg could surprise a lot of people.

Binance still has to buy $40M of ethereum:0x6982508145454ce325ddbe47a25d4ec3d2311933

In the aftermath of the largest incident in crypto history, Binance’s response is what industry leadership looks like.
Immediate, direct communication from Richard Teng. User funds fully covered from the SAFU fund and company reserves (not other customers). Roughly half the assets already frozen through coordinated action with stablecoin issuers, blockchain partners, and law enforcement. Deposits continuing, withdrawals paused only for a security overhaul, and a clear commitment to an updated Proof of Reserves.
This is how mature platforms absorb extreme events and protect users. The standard has been raised. Proud of the response.

Wanting Binance to collapse is a fucking ridiculous position to take if you actually care about this industry.
Criticise the security failure. Demand answers. Expect customers to be made whole. Binance should be held accountable for what happened.
But actively hoping the exchange goes under? What exactly do you think you’re wishing for?
People are already uncomfortable after a 13% correction. Imagine being unable to withdraw your funds and not knowing when, or how much, you’ll get back.
Have we already forgotten what happened when FTX collapsed? Are we really that short-sighted?
Withdrawals stopped, customers were left with claims in bankruptcy, and the damage spread to other businesses.
Given Binance’s scale, a collapse would be even more damaging than FTX. Other firms could have funds exposed. Customers elsewhere would start questioning their own platforms. Money that might have entered the industry could decide it wants nothing to do with it.
You don’t need to like Binance to understand how damaging that would be.
It’s easy to cheer for a company to fail when you dislike its executives and the consequences are somebody else’s problem. Much harder when you think about the person refreshing a withdrawal page, wondering whether they’ll get their savings back.
I want answers, better security and customers protected.
I don’t need ordinary people to get hurt just so someone can post that they were right about an exchange.

I’m adding to my $BTC longs here at $76K.
As I’ve repeatedly mentioned over the last month, the $70Ks were always the likely area for the next higher low to develop. The plan was to add on a pullback into that range.
If you wanted to buy Bitcoin lower, what did you expect the chart to look like when it got there?
We’ve now corrected roughly 13% from the local high and returned to the prior range. I’m not going to spend a month identifying an area where I want to buy, then let a few red candles scare me out of buying it.
Could we go another 5–10% lower? Absolutely. I’m fully prepared for that.
What I’m not prepared to do is make my participation in the next cycle depend on getting every entry right.
I’m positioning for the upside I see over the next 12–18 months, and I don’t need to catch the exact bottom to do that.
If Bitcoin trades at $180K over the next few years, I doubt I’ll be complaining that I bought at $76K rather than a few thousand dollars lower.
When positioning for a cycle, your job as a trader is to build a position on major pullbacks and give it time to develop. Catching the exact low would be nice, but it isn’t a requirement.
I believe we’re approaching the point where the $70Ks won’t be available again.
Soon, you’ll never see Bitcoin in the $70Ks again.
That’s how I’m looking at this range.
The longer we spend here, the easier it becomes to assume you have all the time in the world. Another pullback. Another few months to decide. Another chance to buy at the same prices.
But we’re still trading well below the all-time high, and I believe this range will eventually become somewhere people wish they had spent less time doubting.
Take a screenshot. Look at it again in a year.
Because by then, we’ll be having this same conversation about Bitcoin below $100K.
