Latest Stablecoin Market Update. 📉 A significant change this week: the total market capitalization of stablecoins has declined over the past 7 days. In previous weeks, we consistently saw stablecoin growth and new funds flowing into the market. This week, however, the opposite has occurred: funds have flowed out slightly. This in itself doesn't necessarily indicate a trend reversal, but it does suggest: - Reduced new liquidity - A more demanding market environment - Risk assets may be more susceptible to market sentiment and fund flows The stablecoin supply is still on an upward trend, but short-term fluctuations like this require close monitoring. I track this metric daily. It's one of the clearest signals of real demand. Chart source: @DefiLlama

Today's FOMC meeting. A rate cut is highly likely, but the key lies in Powell's speech, not the specific amount of the cut. Market reaction to media coverage depends on the overall trend, not the headlines. If Powell's remarks support a rate cut, risk assets may strengthen. If he is cautious, market volatility may increase, potentially leading to downward pressure. ⏱ Highest Volatility Period: 19:00 Decision 19:30 Press Conference I typically do not use leverage on FOMC meeting days. The real market movements usually occur during the press conference.
