[Analysis: Bitcoin Faces Pressure Again, U.S. Stock Market Risk Sentiment Suppresses Crypto Market]
Bitcoin weakened again after the U.S. stock market opened on Wednesday, briefly rising to about $77,678 before retreating, continuing this week's structural pattern of "strength during Asian trading hours and decline during U.S. trading hours." The market is focused on the upcoming Nvidia earnings report, which many institutions regard as one of the most critical macro volatility triggers this quarter.
As a result, U.S. pre-market sentiment was cautious, with the S&P 500 falling about 1.3% at one point before a slight rebound, but overall risk appetite remained weak. On-chain and spot market structure shows the Coinbase Premium index dropped to a multi-month low, indicating sustained weak buying demand in the U.S. market.
This indicator has recently remained negative, reflecting relatively insufficient spot demand in the U.S. region. Even though BTC prices remain high, marginal buying has not increased correspondingly. Technically, Bitcoin has again fallen below the 21-week exponential moving average (21W EMA). Analysts point out that this level may shift from support to resistance, and failure to reclaim it could increase short-term volatility and pullback risks.
Overall, the market has entered a wait-and-see mode amid major tech earnings and macro uncertainties. $BTC
In the previous HYPE update, I opened a long position at $46.07, with a stop loss at $41.00 and a target of $50→$55+.
Today’s report.
HYPE current price $51.492, UTC today +7.65%. 24h high $51.733, 24h low $47.068.
Target one $50.00 has been reached.
The long position is still open, waiting for $55.
What’s most worth noting today is the shorts—they haven’t exited and are actually increasing.
Short ratio over the past 10 hours:
51.60% → 51.15% → 51.15% → 51.14% → 51.14% → 51.66% → 51.66% → 51.93% → 51.93% → 51.99% (latest)
HYPE rose from $47 to $51, while the short ratio increased from 51.60% to 51.99%.
Price has steadily risen, but shorts haven’t decreased; instead, they’re slowly climbing.
Then the open interest (OI) over 10 hours:
$319.7M → $320.7M → $323.1M → $327.5M → $331.6M → $333.7M → $337.1M → $348.1M → $352.0M → $351.6M (latest)
In 10 hours, OI rose from $319.7M to $351.6M, an increase of $31.88M, +9.97%.
The 21:00 UTC hour was the strongest, with OI surging by $11.06M in a single hour—that was another wave of shorts entering.
Current OI $351.6M is 1.38 times the $255M when the last update was written.
Funding rate: +0.000025, flipped from negative in the last update to slightly positive now.
Meaning: the shorts from the last update who were paying funding are now shifting—the longs have started paying a tiny bit. But 0.000025 is almost negligible; costs remain very low.
From entry at $46 to now $51.49, up +11.8%.
Short ratio still around 52%, OI expanded from $255M in the last update to $352M—most of the shorts who entered over the past month are still holding, and another batch came in today.
Their stop loss is just above $51.733.
Target one $50 has been reached. OI expanded from $255M to $352M, with 52% shorts increasing their positions as price rises—the stop loss has moved up to $47, waiting for a breakout above $51.733, aiming for $55+. $HYPE

[Caixin: CRS 2.0 Will Include Crypto Assets in the Global Tax "Sky Eye," Overseas Taxation Tightens Comprehensively]
The global tax "Sky Eye" CRS 2.0 is accelerating its implementation worldwide. Crypto assets, CBDCs, and certain electronic money products have been included in the scope of financial asset reporting. Hong Kong plans to implement CRS 2.0 by 2028 and simultaneously advance the Crypto Asset Reporting Framework (CARF). In the future, cryptocurrency exchanges, brokers, and crypto ATM operators will be required to report on crypto-to-fiat currency exchanges, cross-currency crypto asset swaps, and domestic and overseas transfers of crypto assets. Reports must precisely specify the full name of the asset, such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT), etc., and aggregate total market value, total holdings, and number of transactions by transaction dimension; for retail payment transactions, any single transaction amount exceeding $50,000 must be reported individually.
Although mainland China has not officially announced a CRS 2.0 implementation timeline, since 2025, tax authorities in multiple regions have successively notified taxpayers via phone calls and text messages to self-check and report overseas income from 2022 to 2024 and pay taxes accordingly. It is reported that CRS 2.0 will not only fully expose overseas crypto asset holdings to tax regulatory oversight but may also trigger coordinated investigations by other regulatory agencies.
