TRUMP unlocked 40 million tokens 5 hours ago, equivalent to around 300 million US dollars

Renowned trader Killa stated in a post that Bitcoin’s trend has clearly shifted, though we remain in the peak phase of “market skepticism toward a bull market”. During the 2023 bull run, going long on each dip to an “established low” (a market-confirmed low that has demonstrated support) saw prices fall at most 8% below that low; in some instances, they only dipped 4–5% before rallying immediately. Our current “established low” stands at $82,500. Based on historical performance, the downward deviation is expected to be minimal. Killa, a BTC-focused quantitative trader who correctly predicted the peak of this bull cycle in May 2025, boasts over 200,000 followers on X. In mid-April, he shorted Bitcoin at $74,688 and shifted to long positions during the broad market sell-off on June 5.

In response to SlowMist’s report that a Safe module used in Aave v3’s loop strategy was exploited, causing losses of roughly 114.09 ETH (about $310,000), Aave founder Stani Kulechov said the incident was not an attack on the Aave v3 contract itself. Kulechov noted the involved module is a third-party external adapter built on top of Aave v3, adding the event had no impact on Aave v3 itself. Earlier BlockBeats reports indicated the Aave v3 Loop Safe module was attacked, with the attacker exploiting an access control flaw in the FlashLoopAdapter’s open()/close() functions. The hacker stole approximately 114.09 ETH from two Safe multi-sig addresses by forging Safe authentication and executing arbitrary modules, then repaid around 1,300 WETH in debt to unlock collateral.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost wrote in a post that large crypto whales holding significant capital are increasing the volume of stablecoin transfers to Binance. Data shows that the 30-day cumulative inflow from whale addresses sending over $1 million in stablecoins per transaction has risen from $21.7 billion to $30.5 billion, a more than 40% increase compared to over a month ago. Typically, stablecoin inflows to exchanges signal that funds are positioning for market moves, so the rise in whale stablecoin inflows may be tied to potential buying pressure. Data indicates that whale stablecoin inflows previously hit a peak of over $61 billion in October before a prolonged decline. Recently, as structural trends in Bitcoin have shifted, whale capital behavior has begun to adjust, though they remain cautious. Darkfost noted that current whale capital deployment is influenced by multiple factors, including market expectations for the "October rally" and macroeconomic factors such as conflicts, inflationary pressures, and rising bond yields.

According to Glassnode’s monitoring, the sell-side liquidity wall above Bitcoin (BTC) has vanished. Buyers broke through the sell order wall near $85,000 yesterday, a level that had withstood multiple tests over nearly a week without being breached. Glassnode noted that remaining sell orders now appear to have been withdrawn, reducing sell-side liquidity above BTC, which could create more room for further price gains.

U.S. Time magazine released a lengthy report on Donald Trump on October 1. The report noted that Trump has grown increasingly fascinated by artificial intelligence capabilities since returning to the White House. Last December, Elon Musk secretly returned to the White House Oval Office to meet with Trump, during which Trump spent hours posing questions about his presidential tenure and political legacy to Musk’s AI chatbot Grok. Trump also asked Grok how Venezuelan citizens would react if the U.S. arrested Nicolás Maduro. Grok replied that Maduro was deeply unpopular in Venezuela, with many Venezuelans likely to celebrate his downfall. The following month, Trump ordered the operation to arrest Maduro, and celebrations subsequently erupted on Venezuelan streets. Multiple officials disclosed that this incident led Trump to view Grok’s performance as excellent. (Jinshi)
