Rare Accuracy! Tom Lee's New Year Script "Wash Up, Market Down" Has Been Half Fulfilled
Federal Reserve Chair Powell’s term officially concluded on May 15. A day prior, the U.S. Senate confirmed Wash’s nomination as Fed Chair by a narrow 54-45 vote.
What stands out most: On Wash’s first day in office, the mid-term upward trends of both the U.S. stock market and Bitcoin hit a synchronized stop. The S&P 500 index, which peaked at 7501 on May 14, immediately pulled back afterward. Bitcoin, meanwhile, couldn’t break through the $82,000 mark on May 15 and reversed direction, experiencing several sharp declines in recent days—currently trading just barely above $77,000.
Though Tom Lee, Chairman of BitMine, has been mocked for his repeated "brain-dead bullish" calls on cryptocurrency since taking his post, this so-called "Wall Street Oracle" has already seen half of his forecast come true. On January 8 this year, Lee told CNBC in an interview that 2026 would be a year of "joy, depression, and rally," similar to 2025. He noted the market would at times feel like it’s tipping in

The BTC Whale Who Bought the Dip on October 11th is Still Holding Strong, Facing a 12x Unrealized Loss Compared to Initial Investment
May 18: Per monitoring from Hyperinsight (via Telegram channel @HyperInsight), address 0x860 has emerged as the largest underwater whale holding BTC long positions on Hyperliquid.
This whale entered a BTC long position at the bottom 220 days ago — specifically on October 11 last year — following the market crash, with 29x leverage, at an average entry price of $109,632, and a total position size of $13.2 million.
Initially, this long position generated substantial unrealized gains for the whale within 10 days. However, after BTC dropped below its average entry price on October 30 last year, the position never returned to break-even. As of press time, the whale still hasn’t closed the position and remains holding on, with the current unrealized loss standing at $3.94 million — roughly 12 times the initial investment.
Estimates show that given the address’s multimillion-dollar total fund size, the $13.2 million position translates to an actual leverage ratio of about 1.1x. But the unr

Samsung Electronics Union to Strongly Counteract Daily Fine of Around 100 Million Korean Won, Planning to Proceed with Planned Strike on the 21st
May 18: The Samsung Electronics Union confirmed it will proceed with its planned strike. Earlier today, a South Korean court partially granted Samsung Electronics’ request for an injunction to block the union’s planned walkout. If the Samsung union fails to comply with the court order and carries out the strike, it will face a daily fine of roughly 100 million South Korean won.
The Samsung Electronics Union previously voted to launch an 18-day general strike starting on May 21. The main trigger for the action is the union’s push for higher profit-sharing dividends in 2026, when the company’s AI semiconductor business is projected to hit historically high earnings. The union’s demands include removing the performance bonus cap, setting aside 15% of the company’s operating profit for performance bonuses with a transparent, permanent framework, and a 7% increase in base wages to narrow the salary gap with rival SK Hynix. Samsung’s management has only offered a one-time special bonus or a

Yi Li Hua: Patiently Wait for the Opportunity to Buy the Dip, Investment and Trading Essentially Require Restraining Greed and Controlling Panic
May 18: Heran Lee, founder of Liquid Capital (formerly LD Capital), stated he’s biding his time to buy the dip. He emphasized that the essence of investment and trading lies in curbing greed and controlling panic, adding the coming period could mark the most panic-driven phase yet for the crypto space—buying Bitcoin at current highs would expose investors to one final major washout.
The crypto industry is currently confronting five key crises: disinterest from younger generations, traditional funds focusing heavily on AI, ongoing debunking of crypto’s popular narratives, numerous celebrities exiting after cashing out, and industry leaders lacking meaningful innovation and substantive development.
