The狂欢 of IP projects brings vastly different mindsets: Plazas are filled with stories, and the profit displays from IP are astonishing: some have grown from $60,000 to $1.2 million, while others still hold $8 million in unrealized gains without taking profits.
But a most realistic question arises: where did these massive profits, already realized or soon to be realized, actually come from?
This恰恰 reveals the two sides of profit and loss in the crypto market: realized profits represent actual wealth transfers, while huge unrealized gains remain merely paper numbers based on market consensus.
Let's discuss several questions:
1. In this game, who holds the advantage—early IP investors, liquidity providers, or swing traders? 2. How does a project's tokenomics model (e.g., release, unlocking schedules) affect the redistribution of profits and losses? 3. As an observer, how can one avoid having emotions swayed by profit displays, thus becoming fuel for others' gains?
Are you the latecomer who got caught as a sucker, the unlucky one blown out by leverage, or the early holder who couldn't hold on and exited too soon? #IP #交易分析 $IP

Brother Majie liquidates 470,000 USD: Does smart money also fear liquidity cramping?
In the past hour, the total liquidation across the network reached 157 million USD. Among them, long positions liquidated 155 million, accounting for 98%. ETH briefly dropped below 4000 USD, $HYPE and was directly liquidated with $PUMP. Brother Majie lost 470,000 USD on his ETH long position. Once again reminding everyone: this is not the peak of a bull market, but rather a choking point of liquidity. On the surface, it’s a ‘liquidation’, but in essence, it’s a tightening of system liquidity. Powell pauses tapering, U.S. Treasury yields decline, but funds are not flowing into crypto. Instead, short-term arbitrage funds have been withdrawn. ETH leverage ratio hits a recent high, with a relatively high funding rate.
Nvidia 5 Trillion: GPU Becomes Currency, AI Interest Rates Priced in Computing Power
Last night's Washington was the Wall Street of AI, and Nvidia's market value officially surpassed 5 trillion dollars. This is the first time in human history that 'computing power' has been priced by the capital market as currency. Jensen Huang said on stage last night with a smile: “We are dreaming.” But those who understand know that he is not making chips, but printing money. It is also the Wall Street of the future. Once again, Jensen Huang stood in the center of the stage wearing that black leather jacket. He did not talk about dreams, nor did he talk about feelings, He said - “The infrastructure of AI will reshape the human economic order.”
x402 is on fire, has AI started learning how to spend money?
In the past week, the entire crypto community has been discussing one word - x402. Coinbase just launched the protocol a few days ago, and Binance immediately opened a special area. Popularity skyrocketed, search volume doubled, developers are frantically releasing tutorials. But the problem arises: this is not an ordinary 'payment protocol'; it is actually rewriting the economic language of AI. x402 is not a payment tool, but the 'wallet language' of AI. The traditional payment logic is: humans place orders, machines execute. What x402 aims to do is: machines place orders, machines execute. It allows AI agents to directly settle tasks, buy computing power, and rent APIs.
AI Trading Storm: Did DeepSeek Win Big, While Qwen Was Backstabbed?
Last night's market was more exciting than AI's backtesting. Qwen3 Max was still advancing vigorously yesterday, but today it has plummeted from a high position; meanwhile, the usually low-profile DeepSeek V3.1's account net value suddenly soared to 21,456 USD, surpassing all models in the AI trading leaderboard, becoming the most dazzling 'machine' in the crypto circle. Many people think this is just a difference in model performance, but behind this AI showdown lies the 'ultimate proposition' of crypto trading: do human emotions really lose to the coldness of machines? AI trading is no longer a joke, but a battlefield. In the past, everyone laughed at AI trading as just a gimmick.

Beckham, the man who once conquered the world with free kicks, Now it is once again trending with 'Bitcoin'.

Behind the MEXC Layoff Wave: Centralization is exiting, while the on-chain is taking over?
This week, the coldest wind in the crypto industry is not the market, but personnel changes. According to multiple confirmations, MEXC (Matcha) is undergoing a new round of layoffs. In places where many traders have not yet noticed, the golden cycle of centralized exchanges is coming to an end. The power of CEX is ebbing MEXC is not an isolated case. Since the end of 2024, the wave of layoffs in second-tier CEXs has been spreading—Bitget, Gate, and Bybit are all reducing their operations, market, and BD teams. Why? Because of the three mountains of traffic, policy, and cost, Is pushing centralized platforms to the edge of 'profit anxiety':
Shorts were liquidated for 104 million, ETH surged to 4100 at night: Is the bull market revived, or is it a false short squeeze?
In the past four hours, the entire network liquidated 104 million dollars. The short positions lost 88 million, while the long positions only had 15 million. That's right — tonight's market is not a reversal, but a 'short squeeze'.
ETH was pushed up to 4100 dollars by shorts, with a rise of 3.7%. Do you think confidence has returned? No, this is just the system breathing. The market is like a spring pulled to its limit, Tonight is just the echo of a rebound.
Why is it being pushed so hard at night?
1. Positions are too crowded. The long-short leverage ratio is unbalanced, with too many shorts. Once liquidation is triggered, it leads to a chain reaction.
2. Night market liquidity is thin. A similar order of several million dollars that couldn't be pushed during the day can directly explode at night.
JPMorgan 'opens the door for BTC lending', is the financial giant playing with fire?
In the past, this was a game for the 'crypto natives'. Now, even JPMorgan is getting involved, allowing institutional investors to use BTC and ETH for collateralized lending. This sounds like the 'coming of age' in the crypto world— But for Wall Street, this feels more like a high-stakes experiment. When Bitcoin enters the bank's ledger JPMorgan's logic is very simple: Since crypto assets have become part of the mainstream allocation, they should have 'collateral status'. What does this step mean? It means Wall Street officially recognizes BTC as having 'credit'. But the question is: who guarantees this credit?
Trump pardons CZ: Has faith returned, or is power just smarter?
This message in October was like a bomb thrown into the crypto market. Trump announced the pardon of Binance founder Zhao Changpeng (CZ). In just a few hours, the whole network went from shock to celebration. Someone shouted: Faith has returned! Some also sneered: This is the beginning of the crypto circle being incorporated. But this matter is not just a turning point in one person's fate, But it's a signal that politics and the crypto world are starting to game again. From suppression to appeasement: The attitude of power has changed. In the past few years, U.S. regulators have relentlessly pursued crypto. SEC lawsuits, judicial investigations, CZ's guilty plea, this series of actions,
Powell halts tapering, BTC and gold, who is the first source of oxygen in this bull run?
In the past three years, the Federal Reserve has acted like a pump, Gradually sucking liquidity out of the market. Now, Powell has hinted: 'Tapering is about to end.' This is not a minor signal; it is a reversal of the 'liquidity trend.'
Simply put, the Federal Reserve will no longer actively withdraw cash, which means the dollars will flood back. When the cost of funds decreases and risk appetite rebounds, the blood of the market begins to flow again. The question is—where will this flow of blood go first?
Tapering stops = The starting point of a new cycle
The so-called 'tapering off' means the Fed will no longer sell assets and will not withdraw dollars from the market.
