Accurately predicting gold prices is highly challenging. Its future direction is mainly affected by the interplay of three major factors: geopolitical situations, the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy, and global central banks’ gold-buying behavior.
As of today (May 9), international spot gold prices are consolidating in the $4,700 - $4,750 per ounce range. Below is the latest market forecast information for the end of June as of early May:
📊 Institutional forecast summary
· Morgan Stanley: target $5,200. Believes that if rate-cut expectations heat up again in the future, it will provide upsi

ONDO is one of the most outstanding tokens recently in the market, receiving dual catalysts from the DTCC working group selection and the JPMorgan/Mastercard cross-border pilot from May 4 to 9 in terms of funding.
① News-driven catalyst: On May 4, Ondo was selected into the DTCC (Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation) tokenization industry working group. DTCC clears over $3.7 trillion in assets annually. This "ticket" significantly enhances institutional compliance credibility. On May 6, Ondo, JPMorgan, Mastercard, and Ripple jointly completed the world's first cross-chain tokenized U.S. Tre

Analysis of the Token Unlock Wave in May
In May 2026, a rare and intense token unlocking period will occur, with an estimated total of $41.8 billion worth of tokens set to unlock, involving over 140 crypto projects. On average, more than $1.3 billion worth of new tokens may flood the market daily. The main contributors to this unlocking wave are RAIN, with a single unlock worth about $397 million, accounting for over 10% of its circulating supply; and Space and Time, with an unlocking amount reaching 27.6% of its circulating market cap, causing extremely intense supply shocks.
The core impact

Brief Analysis of Circle’s Issuance of 250 Million USDC
Circle recently completed the minting of 250 million USDC on the Solana network, as part of its ongoing capacity expansion in recent years. From early 2025 to the end of April, the total amount of USDC issued on-chain on the Solana network has already reached 31 billion.
The issuance essentially responds to market demand: after institutional customers deposit an equivalent amount of USD, Circle mints the corresponding USDC, bringing the USD liquidity of traditional finance into the crypto ecosystem. The most direct effect of adding new li

The old market logic no longer holds: it was previously believed that “strong non-farm data → no rate cuts → BTC falls,” but actual data shows that even if rate-cut expectations are dashed, BTC still remains firmly elevated. The underlying reason is that BTC’s driving force has shifted from “rate cuts and liquidity infusion” to “hedging against the collapse of U.S. dollar credit”—high interest rates cannot address fiscal deficits and geopolitical stagflation risks, and BTC is being re-priced as a tool to resist fiat currency depreciation. Every “false bearish signal” instead becomes an opportu

When the market is rising, I am Satoshi Nakamoto's long-lost brother. Sitting cross-legged, holding my phone in landscape mode to watch the candlesticks like climbing a ladder, with a knowing smile at the corner of my mouth, gently exhaling a smoke ring: "This wave, yeah, this wave is called value return."
The group chat is filled with buy signals one after another, and I calmly post a profit screenshot with the caption—"Nothing much, just a friend of time."
When the market is falling, who am I? Where am I? Why do I need to deposit money? My eyes are almost drilling into the screen, finger

$ZEC Breaking through $608 marks the official start of the privacy coin market. This breakthrough has three implications: first, the technical pattern has completely reversed, with $600 previously serving as the bullish psychological ceiling; after breaking through, the upward space opens, and the market enters a main rally; second, the privacy narrative has regained market consensus. Under tightening regulations, assets with true privacy features become safe havens. ZEC, as the pioneer of zero-knowledge proof (ZKP) technology, is regaining its dominant position; third, short sellers have been

In the DEX sector, $UNI is the most valuable. The other four projects each have fatal shortcomings—JUP is trapped on the Solana single chain, CRV is limited to stablecoins, CAKE is shrinking as the BSC ecosystem contracts, and SUSHI has declined due to internal infighting. UNI has three major long-term variables: ① upgrading from the protocol to infrastructure via v4 and Unichain (supporting limit orders, derivatives, and its own L2); ② enabling the Fee Switch so governance tokens receive dividends, becoming income-generating assets; ③ with CEXs constrained by regulation, the replacement valu

Saturday (May 9) — As major global gold markets are closed for the weekend, the following analysis is based on the closing data from the previous trading week.
**Core price levels:** Gold is currently trading in a high-level area above **$4,700 per ounce**, staying within the short-term core range of **$4,680–$4,765**. The key support below is at **$4,670**; if it holds, the upward trend remains intact. The short-term resistance above is at **$4,750**; after a breakout, it may test the previous high of **$4,765** and the **$4,800** level.
**Bull and bear drivers:** Geopolitically, the US and I

The current rebound is a "short squeeze rebound," not the start of a new bull market:
· BTC fell from 126k to 59.8k, with a complex structure, more akin to a phased correction within a bear market rather than a standard five-wave decline ending.
· Although it has regained the EMA55/120/144, the arrangement is not a standard bullish alignment, similar to the complex rebound in 2022 that may continue to decline.
· 60k does not resemble a major cycle bottom; unless it effectively stabilizes above 90k later on, the bull-bear logic remains unchanged.
Key observation zones:
· First resistance zone:

1. Clone Season vs. Clone Week: The all-encompassing surge of "Clone Season" is unlikely to reoccur, but the phased rotational rise of "Clone Week" is worth looking forward to.
2. Capital preference shift: The total market cap share of clones (OTHERS.D) is rising, while Ethereum's share (ETH.D) is weakening, indicating that funds are bypassing ETH and flowing directly into other highly elastic clone coins.
3. Asset ranking update: Based on profit and loss ratios, the current priority is Clones > BTC > ETH. BTC remains stable, and ETH's structure has not broken through, so it cannot become the

The current altcoin market is in an oversold rebound phase: BTC rebounded from $60k to around $83k, then short-term stabilization, and funds are starting to flow out into altcoins. As long as BTC does not fall below $75,000, altcoins are expected to continue performing. Popular sectors include:
· AI: leaders VIRTUAL, NEAR, others like ARKM (TAO, RENDER, FET have already risen earlier)
· RWA: leaders CFG, ONDO, can watch POLYX, SYRUP
· Storage: leader AR, second-tier FIL, the trend is not over
· Public chains: focus on APT, SEI which haven't pumped this round (SUI has already gained, with some

The 2026 North America World Cup is about to kick off. Although predictions from major authoritative institutions vary slightly, they outline the basic pattern: the "new king" Spain and defending champion Argentina are jointly leading, while teams like France, England, and Brazil are watching closely from behind. The performance of the host nation and dark horses is also worth looking forward to.
🤔 Overview of predictions from various institutions
· Polymarket prediction market: France 17%, Spain 15%, England 11%, Argentina 9%, Brazil 9%.
· Opta supercomputer: Spain 15.83%, France 12.77%, E

Market Expectations: Tonight’s 20:30 U.S. April non-farm payroll report is expected to show that employment added only 62,000 jobs. That would be a clear pullback from the unexpectedly large jump of 178,000 in March. The unemployment rate is expected to remain at 4.3%, and average hourly earnings are forecast to rise from 3.5% to 3.8% year over year, indicating that wage inflation is still heating up.
Market Background: Since 2026, U.S. non-farm data has been extremely volatile—January came in far above expectations, February surprised with negative growth, and March nearly tripled the forecas

U.S. April ADP employment data significantly exceeded market expectations: the private sector added 109k jobs this month, not only far surpassing the revised 61k in March but also higher than the market consensus of 99k, marking the largest increase since January 2025, nearly 15 months ago.
This data quickly reversed market expectations of rate cuts. The CME FedWatch tool shows that the probability of the Federal Reserve holding interest rates steady in June has surged to 94.2%, with only a 5.8% chance of a rate cut, and the probability of maintaining rates for the rest of the year has exceede

1. Will the US-Iran tense situation escalate further?
The essence of the May 8th Strait of Hormuz conflict is more likely a probing friction rather than a sign of full-scale war. The US claims to have intercepted Iran's "baseless attack," while Iran accuses the US military of violating the ceasefire by attacking oil tankers, with both sides sticking to their narratives. The most critical signal comes from President Trump himself: he clearly stated, "This is just a light tap, the ceasefire is still ongoing and effective," and emphasized that the US ships "were not damaged." The US Central Comma
