What a week. 🌒

BTC $77k. ETH $2,400. XRP $1.31. COIN up 27% from entry. HL running. Silver moving. Gold strong.

Everything the portfolio was built for playing out at the same time.

XRP entered below $1. SUI at $0.65. COIN at $148. Every entry was picture perfect.

Not luck. Research. Patience. Process.

The pivot is happening quietly while most people are still debating whether it's real.

We're positioned. We're watching. We'll keep sharing everything in the community.

Have a great weekend. 🌒→🌅

Good morning. 🌒

BTC $76,358. ETH $2,374. XRP $1.31 — up 18% overnight. SOL $90.
Spot BTC ETFs pulled in $606M yesterday. Ether funds $221M. Both bigger than the prior day. The institutional bid is real and it's accelerating.

XRP up 18% overnight. Three hours spanning the London afternoon and New York morning now account for 23% of all XRP moving on-chain — up from 14% a year ago. That's banker hours. Institutional settlement patterns showing up in the data.
We entered XRP below $1. It's at $1.31 this morning.

Stocks went the other way yesterday — Walmart down 9%, Nasdaq down 1%, S&P down 0.85%. Crypto is moving opposite to stocks. The decoupling that's been building all summer is now visible in the price action.
Treasury Secretary Bessent suggesting more bond market intervention. Dollar weakening. Hard assets winning.

Jackson Hole next week. Warsh speaks. Everything else is noise until then.

Wrote this in our Discord before the eclipse. 🌑

"Wednesday Aug 12 — Total Solar Eclipse on the Leo-Aquarius axis.

The same axis marked:
2008-2009 — bottom of the financial crisis, beginning of the longest bull market in history
2016 — Trump election rally
1998-2000 — peak of the dot com bubble
We're in fear territory. Whale accumulation at record levels. Multiple assets at cycle lows. The eclipse window has historically marked major turning points.
We're positioned."
BTC touched $69,000 the week after. ETH up 18%. The whole basket moved.

We're not calling the bottom. Could still flush. But the community was positioned before it happened.

This is the alpha that lives in our Discord.

Been saying it for a while. 🌒

The pivot is getting clearer by the day.

Smart money isn't debating crypto anymore. They're building positions quietly while retail looks away.

Jane Street. $992M in BTC ETF. XRP stake up 60x.
Whales pulling hundreds of millions off exchanges.
ETF inflows turning positive.
Treasury doubled bond buybacks yesterday.
SEC proposing crypto exemption framework.
The mega bull run doesn't announce itself. It starts while everyone's distracted.
We've been accumulating. XRP below $1. SUI at $0.65. COIN at $148.
The not too distant future is closer than most people think. 👀

This is exactly it. 🌒

Bond yields blowing out while BTC, gold and risk assets surge. The dollar softening. Stocks near all time highs.

The system isn't broken. It's working exactly as designed — just not for everyone.

Asset holders win. Always have. The question is which side of that line you're on.

We've been building positions in hard assets, crypto and quality equity for months. Not because of luck. Because this playbook has been running for decades and it doesn't change.

The stablecoin/CBDC endgame is real. That's exactly why owning the assets before the crowd arrives matters.

https://t.co/3QuFDJ8yW1 — DTD

[Simon Dixon @SimonDixonTwitt]

When bond yields blow out while Bitcoin and gold surge, stocks sit near highs and the dollar weakens, you pay attention.

This is the K-shaped economy in action:

Socialise the losses.

Privatise the gains.

Inflate the assets.

Asset holders win.

Everyone else gets pushed toward a stablecoin/CBDC UBI, backed by their share of the socialised debt.

That’s the strategy I’ve been preparing my followers for, for years.

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

BTC $69,265 (+7.71%). ETH $2,251 (+18%). SOL $84.74 (+10.4%). XRP $1.10 (+10.32%). 🌒

The whole basket moved. All at once.

Treasury doubled bond buybacks. SEC proposed crypto exemption framework. $1.9 billion in shorts liquidated in 24 hours.

That's not noise. That's a structural shift.

We've been accumulating quietly while everyone looked away. XRP below $1. SUI at $0.65. COIN at $148.

The divergence between crypto and equities just started closing.

Jackson Hole next week. The next chapter starts there. 👀

https://t.co/cs52AJ1Yi4 — DTD 🌒

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

FOMC minutes showed a divided Fed. Several officials wanted to hike. Most want to wait. 🌒

But here's what the minutes didn't see — July jobs down 23,000. Retail sales down 0.6%. Two clean inflation prints.

September hike odds just dropped to 31%. The data is doing the Fed's work for them.

Not a cut yet. But the direction is right.

Jackson Hole August 27. That's when Warsh tells us everything.

139 trades. Still building. 🌒

W:36 BE:43 L:60 | PF 1.81× | Net +$83.08
More losses than wins. Always has been. Always will be.
Avg winner +$7.44 vs avg loser -$4.10. That's the edge. Lose small, win bigger. Let the math do the rest.

139 trades since June 29. Every one public. Nothing hidden.

Today is the day. FOMC minutes drop at 2pm ET — covering the July 28-29 meeting that produced a 9-3 vote to hold, with three regional Fed presidents forming the first unified dissenting block in favour of a hike since September 2016.
The minutes show how close that view came to swaying the broader committee. If they reveal broader support for a hike — September odds move higher. If the dissent looks narrow and isolated — base case unchanged.

Spot BTC ETF flows swung positive at $137M daily inflow. On-chain transfer activity at a seven-year low. Spot trading volume at levels not seen since early 2019. Thin participation. Quiet market. Big number incoming.
Also today — Target, TJX, Lowe's all report. Three consumer reads alongside the Fed minutes. Busy afternoon.

2pm ET. Everything depends on what those minutes say.

Something happened today that barely got a headline. 🌒

BTC outperformed the S&P 500. Up 2.6% while stocks slipped 0.5%. That hasn't happened much this year. Crypto has been lagging everything — equities, gold, oil. Today it didn't.

One day doesn't make a trend. But you notice it.

Nasdaq announced 23-hour trading starting December. Stock markets chasing crypto hours. The infrastructure gap between traditional and digital finance is closing faster than most people realise.

White House crypto summit Wednesday. FOMC minutes Wednesday. Two events landing on the same day that matter for completely different reasons — and both matter for where this goes next.

Jeonbuk Bank went live on Ripple Payments today. First regional Korean bank. Transfers that took days now take seconds. One bank at a time. That's how infrastructure gets built.

FOMC minutes Thursday. Jackson Hole end of month. The Fed is about to tell us everything.

Patient. Positioned. Watching. 👀

https://t.co/cs52AJ1Yi4 — DTD 🌒

[CoinDesk @CoinDesk]

NEW: Jeonbuk Bank becomes the first regional bank in Korea to deploy @Ripple Payments for cross-border remittances, settling transfers in seconds that previously took days via SWIFT.

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

First regional Korean bank live on Ripple Payments. 🌒

Seconds instead of days. That's not an upgrade — that's a different product entirely.

SWIFT took 50 years to build its network. Ripple is replacing it one bank at a time. Korea. Japan. Middle East. Southeast Asia.

We're in XRP below $1. Patient.

https://t.co/cs52AJ1Yi4 — DTD

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

Jane Street. $992M in BTC ETF. XRP ETF stake up 60x. 🌒

The smartest money in traditional finance isn't debating whether crypto matters. They're just quietly building the position.

We added XRP below $1 last week. Same thesis. Different scale.

The accumulation is real. The retail interest is near 2026 lows.

That gap closes.

https://t.co/cs52AJ1Yi4 — DTD

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

Good morning. 🌒

BTC back above $64k. Buyers showed up at $62,700 and held it. The support is real even if nobody's excited about it yet.

Goldman Sachs came out this morning saying the probability of a September rate hike is "extremely low." That's a big call from the most influential bank on Wall Street. Two clean inflation prints last week. Soft retail sales. Weakening consumer. The Fed's case for hiking is getting harder to make by the day.

Gold above $4,400. That's telling you something.

CLARITY Act vote September 15. Galaxy Research giving it 10% odds of passing in 2026. The market has largely given up on it this year — which means if it does pass, the surprise factor moves things hard.

FOMC minutes drop Thursday this week. Three officials voted to hike in July. Those minutes will show exactly how close the debate was. Market moves on it.Quiet open. Loud week ahead.

[Raoul Pal @RaoulGMI]

Claude appears to be utterly unusable today. I've wasted hours and any task takes half an hour to do. His reasoning is flawed and it's not doing things and it's missing everything it was supposed to do. @AnthropicAI @claudeai opus 5 is a clusterfuck and Fable 5 is a horror story of expense. I'm hardly a heavy user in the general scheme of things but I blow through my weekly allowance of credits by Monday. This has to get sorted out. they need more inference and fast or they're gonna lose a lot of customers.

[DTD @DuskDawnTrading]

Quiet Monday. Which is fine. 🌒

BTC at $63,600 — up 0.9% on softer rate hike expectations. Still restrained by Iran uncertainty and CLARITY Act stalled in the Senate. Two things holding it back that aren't going to hold it back forever.

Long-duration bonds weakening even as rate hike expectations ease. The 20-year Treasury ETF hit its lowest close since 2004 today. Fiscal deficits and debt supply the persistent pressure now — not just Fed policy. Something worth watching.

ECB published a blog post warning that a correction in US tech valuations is likely even if AI delivers. Euro-area households hold €440 billion in Magnificent Seven exposure. That's not a small number.

Busy week ahead. Home Depot tomorrow. FOMC minutes Wednesday — three Fed officials dissented in favour of a hike in July. Those minutes are going to be contentious reading. Walmart Thursday.

We added to the portfolio today. Come see what we're building.
