I am very curious why in the past, some people could help others set up a VPN to make money, but now no one is helping people set up a ladder to make money, especially since the steps to set up a VPN are far less complicated than those for setting up a crab trap, which is thought-provoking. Setup costs: Server 500G/month $30 a year Server 1TB/month $50 a year Server 2TB/month $100 a year Setting up a ladder requires about 5-10 commands to execute. Then provide the user with an ID that has already purchased a small rocket, and at the same time install the Mac/Windows client version, taking 30 seconds to fill in the configured IP, encryption method, password, port, etc., and the task is complete. Finally, charge $100 once, which not only alleviates the anxiety of those who are worried about ladders but also helps them set up their private VPN, while also earning a service fee. By the end of the month, isn't it more than what you earn from a hard job? There will definitely be nitpickers asking why I don't do this if it's so profitable. I do it, charging $200, only making money from wealthy people, is that okay?

Today is Wednesday, the sun is shining brightly, the temperature is 39 degrees, the air conditioning in the classroom is broken, so I'm strolling around the mall with my phone while attending online classes, and casually sipping on a cup of SOL. It's a simple yet fulfilling day, and as for the market, what’s meant to come will come; there's no need to keep staring at it all the time.

The current structure is actually quite clear. The short-term double top has basically formed, the neckline has been broken, and this position happens to be near the lower edge of the ascending channel. Now that the edge has been broken, it indicates that this upward trend is likely over. If it can still be pushed up hard, theoretically it can only form a wedge or a triple top, but I think the probability of that is low. So the current thinking is very simple: don't chase shorts, wait for a small-level rebound. The rebound is expected to be around 77.8k, and at that position, continue to look for short opportunities. If there is another acceleration in the decline, 73.5k is basically going to be tested. Once it reaches that area, we will see if there is a new structure emerging. At this stage, I still remain bearish.

BTC continues to fluctuate around 77k, with declining volume, overall resembling a weak recovery. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔥 Today's Highlights 1) BTC has temporarily stopped falling, but 80k remains a strong resistance • BTC has slightly rebounded, with ETH/SOL following suit • However, trading volume continues to decline by 12.5% • Coindesk states: Traders are becoming cautious below 80k Interpretation: This is not a strong counterattack, but more like a technical breather after a significant drop the previous day. 2) Macro factors continue to pressure risk assets • Paul Tudor Jones says BTC is the "best inflation hedge" • But Coindesk also reminds: The macro environment does not support BTC easily returning above 80k Interpretation: Long-term logic has some continuing to be bullish, but short-term funds are clearly hesitant to charge aggressively. 3) Institutional buying is still ongoing, but retail trading is cooling down • Strategy continues to buy 3,273 BTC • Robinhood's earnings report shows a 47% plunge in crypto trading revenue Interpretation: Institutions are buying, but retail trading enthusiasm is waning, which is why BTC is hard to crash, but altcoins are not rising. 4) Stablecoin / payment narrative continues to heat up • Visa collaborates with Tether co-founder to promote on-chain banking solutions • Israel approves its first regulated stablecoin • Western Union is also researching stablecoin cross-border settlements Interpretation: Traditional finance is not just verbally supportive, but is genuinely moving towards on-chain payments, which is a medium to long-term positive. 5) Regulatory landscape continues to intensify • CFTC sues Wisconsin, continuing the fight for regulatory authority over prediction markets • Polymarket is reportedly seeking CFTC approval to reopen to U.S. users • CFTC also plans to use AI to review crypto registration applications Interpretation: U.S. regulation is not relaxing, but shifting from "chaotic enforcement" to "seizing jurisdiction." 6) Security issues are still brewing on the periphery • Aave's rescue plan continues to advance • New wallet solutions for Bitcoin quantum risks have emerged • More and more projects in the industry are proactively implementing quantum protection Interpretation: Security issues did not crash the market today, but they are slowly becoming a competitive point in infrastructure. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 Ado's Commentary Today's market keyword is not "rise," but "stabilize." Institutional funds and the stablecoin narrative are still providing support, so BTC did not continue to crash; however, declining volume and weakening retail trading also indicate that the market is not yet ready to directly return to a strong trend. In one sentence: Short-term stop in decline, emotional recovery, but to truly turn strong, 80k must be reclaimed first.

The most expensive haircut I've had in recent years, at a shop opened by a Thai celebrity, very much in the Instagram style. (I styled it myself because I couldn't accept the Thai-style haircut she gave me.

The KOLs in Web3 are really fragmented, whatever is trending is what they follow... Not long ago, everyone was using Mac minis to farm lobsters, and now it's all about VPNs. The VPN I bought doesn't work, so why not just set one up using lobsters? There's no barrier to entry. This feeling is really disjointed. Instead of leeching off the traffic from a VPN that might go down, why not write a proper tutorial, find a suitable server operator, and set it up with lobsters? In just a few minutes, you could have your own private airport. Isn't a useful tutorial better than just leeching traffic?

🐍 Ado Crypto Daily | 2026.04.28 📊 Market Overview BTC: $76,728 (-3.10%) ETH: $2,283 (-4.55%) SOL: $84.06 (-4.28%) BNB: $624.22 (-2.25%) XRP: $1.39 (-3.53%) DOGE: $0.0992 (-1.32%) TRX: $0.324 (+0.29%) Total Crypto Market Cap: Approximately $2.648 trillion 24h Market Cap Change: -2.67% 24h Trading Volume Change: +30.90% BTC Market Share: 58.09% Conclusion in One Sentence: Yesterday's surge couldn't hold, and today we see a pullback. After BTC's failed attempt to reach 80k, the market has re-entered a cooling and profit-taking phase. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔥 Today's Highlights 1) BTC's failed attempt to hit 80k, short-term weakness • BTC has pulled back to around 76.7k • ETH/SOL have dropped more than BTC • Trading volume has actually increased by 30.9% Interpretation: This isn't a slow decline; it's active profit-taking. Major coins are still holding up, but altcoins are weaker. 2) Signs of fatigue are appearing in the rally • Coindesk states that BTC's rally shows signs of fatigue • Key indicators are weakening • The market is concerned that the recent rise was driven more by sentiment and short squeezes Interpretation: In the short term, there is indeed significant selling pressure around 80k, and after a failed breakout, a pullback is natural. 3) Macro and geopolitical disturbances are putting pressure back on • Coindesk mentions rising oil prices and increased risks in Iran, which are suppressing BTC • The optimistic sentiment that previously supported the market is cooling off Interpretation: BTC is still very sensitive to macro factors; once risk asset sentiment weakens, the crypto market will retract faster than the stock market. 4) Institutional funds are still buying, but short-term profit-taking is overwhelming • Bitcoin funds saw an inflow of about $933 million in one week • Strategy bought another 3,273 BTC • Fidelity still believes BTC is stabilizing the market Interpretation: The mid-term funding logic is still intact, but the issue is that the short-term rise has been too fast, leading some to take profits. 5) The narrative around stablecoins and payments continues to strengthen • Western Union is considering launching a stablecoin for cross-border settlements as a replacement for SWIFT • Stablecoin B2B payments are expected to reach $5 trillion by 2035 Interpretation: This trend is more favorable in the medium to long term, indicating that traditional finance is increasingly taking on-chain payments seriously. 6) Security and regulatory issues remain • Aave's rescue plan continues to advance • Canada's ban on crypto donations passed a key vote • Solana / MARA are discussing quantum security solutions Interpretation: While the main focus of the industry remains on funding and ETFs, security, regulation, and quantum issues are slowly becoming mainstream topics. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 Ado's Commentary Today's market core isn't about "turning bearish," but rather a normal pullback after a failed surge. Institutional funds haven't fled, and ETFs haven't collapsed, but short-term sentiment is clearly being suppressed by 80k. Only if BTC falls back below previous lows should we worry about a larger-scale weakening; right now, it feels more like a shakeout in a strong trend. In one sentence: Short-term is weak, funds are taking profits, but the mid-term main trend is still intact.

🐍 Ado Crypto Daily | 2026.04.27 📊 Market Overview BTC: $79,058 (+2.08%) ETH: $2,388 (+3.36%) SOL: $87.71 (+1.81%) BNB: $637.8 (+1.48%) XRP: $1.44 (+1.55%) DOGE: $0.1003 (+2.71%) TRX: $0.3235 (-0.06%) Total Crypto Market Cap: Approximately $2.719 trillion 24h Total Market Cap Change: +1.61% 24h Trading Volume Change: +45.31% BTC Market Share: 58.24% One-sentence conclusion: Today is not just a simple rebound; it is a strong surge. BTC has regained the 79k mark, and market sentiment is clearly stronger than yesterday. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔥 Today's Highlights 1) BTC breaks out and strengthens, with volume increasing simultaneously • BTC rose over 2% in 24h • Total market trading volume increased by 45% • Total market cap has rebounded to around 2.72T Interpretation: This is not just a dead water rebound; at least for now, there is volume. It is much healthier than the low-volume sideways trading of the past two days. 2) ETFs and institutional funds continue to support the market • Approximately $824 million flowed into the US spot BTC ETF weekly • BlackRock ETF options open interest has previously surpassed Deribit • Corporate hoarding narrative continues to strengthen Interpretation: The real support for the market is still from institutions and compliant funds, not retail sentiment. The core reason BTC is stronger than altcoins lies here. 3) Whales are going long, but funding rates remain negative • Coindesk mentioned that BTC whales continue to add long positions • Meanwhile, funding remains negative Interpretation: This indicates that there are still many people in the market who do not believe in this wave, leaving room for further short squeezes. 4) DeFi is still recovering, but the shadow of security issues remains • Aave has raised nearly 80% of the funds needed to cover the bad debts left by the KelpDAO exploit • The market is also discussing DeFi's ability to recover after being hacked and the loss of TVL Interpretation: DeFi is not dead, but funds are still very sensitive to security issues. To restore valuations, trust must first be rebuilt. 5) Regulatory and policy lines continue to influence expectations • The US crypto legislative window is approaching; May is worth watching closely • Over in Europe, Bybit's CEO directly stated: MiCA is not enough; it's hard to make money relying solely on MiCA Interpretation: US decisions influence sentiment, while Europe determines compliance costs. Regulation is not a short-term negative but a long-term variable that decides who can survive. 6) Don't forget the risk points • Litecoin suffered a DoS attack and experienced 13 block reorganizations • Discussions about quantum threats to Bitcoin continue to heat up Interpretation: These issues did not dominate the market today, but they will continue to remind the market: security issues are never a thing of the past. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 Ado's Commentary The core of today's market strengthening is not just the rise, but the volume has returned during the rise. BTC remains the absolute main line, with institutional inflows, ETFs, and whale long positions all contributing positively. However, it is important to note that the current situation resembles a BTC-dominated market recovery, not a full-blown bull market return. For altcoins to take over, we need to see if the funds continue to spread in the future. One sentence: Today is relatively strong, BTC is leading the pace, short-term sentiment is warming up, but don't rush into thinking it's a full bull market.

After being tormented by the market for too long, it's easy to become M. I see a lot of people getting blacklisted and still feeling indignant. Actually, it’s nothing. Different circles, don’t force it. The chief economist of the new fire mainly focuses on how to bring big clients from Web2 to Web3. The threshold for the new fire black card is 500,000. Among us few, how many can meet the standard? Even if they meet the standard, if they really invest 500,000, will they be like Web2 fans, asking nothing all day and just praising the teacher's greatness? Can they do that?

🐍 Ado Crypto Daily | 2026.04.26 📊 Market Overview BTC: $77,538 (-0.00%) ETH: $2,316 (-0.13%) SOL: $86.02 (-0.26%) BNB: $629.28 (-1.16%) XRP: $1.42 (-1.02%) DOGE: $0.0979 (-1.02%) TRX: $0.324 (+0.38%) Total Crypto Market Cap: Approximately $2.669 trillion 24h Market Cap Change: -0.19% 24h Trading Volume Change: -42.03% BTC Market Share: 58.15% One-sentence conclusion: Prices haven't moved much, but trading volume has shrunk significantly, and the market is waiting for new catalysts. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔥 Today's Highlights 1) BTC remains stable around 77k, but the market is clearly shrinking • BTC is basically hovering around the $77.5k line • Total market cap has only slightly retreated • 24h trading volume plummeted by 42% Interpretation: This is not a panic sell-off, but rather both bulls and bears are reluctant to take heavy positions, more like waiting for direction. 2) The underlying support for BTC's rebound is still there: institutions and stablecoins • BTC ETF / institutional allocation interest remains • BlackRock's Bitcoin ETF open interest exceeds Deribit • The logic of USDT supply growth is still supporting the market Interpretation: What truly supports the market is not retail sentiment, but rather ETFs, stablecoins, compliant derivatives, and institutional allocation demand. This is positive for BTC, but not necessarily for most altcoins. 3) Trump-related news continues to stir the market • Trump canceled his trip related to talks with Iran • Following this news, BTC briefly retreated • At the same time, Trump continues to advocate for crypto legislation and attended meetings related to the $TRUMP memecoin Interpretation: Trump's influence on crypto is dual-edged—policy narratives are generally favorable, but geopolitical and emotional disturbances lead to higher volatility. 4) AI + Crypto narrative continues to heat up • Alchemy CEO: Crypto is not for people, it's for AI agents • Coinbase's Jesse Pollak: AI agents will be the next big opportunity in crypto payments Interpretation: This narrative provides crypto with a story that is easier to communicate to traditional capital than pure speculation, making it worth keeping an eye on Base / L2 / stablecoins / AI infrastructure. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🧠 Ado's Commentary Today, the market is not weakly collapsing, but rather weakly stable. BTC is supported by institutions and compliant funds, making it difficult to drop significantly; however, the drop in volume indicates that the market is not ready for a direct new high. In one sentence: The market is still alive, but enthusiasm is lacking. Institutions are entering, retail investors are not panicking, and direction is waiting for a catalyst.
