Odaily News, "White-Haired Stock Guru" Serenity stated on the X platform that following a series of Fact Sheets released by the U.S. government recently, the country's future priority industries and strategic directions can now be seen more clearly.

Serenity pointed out that this week, the U.S. government released policy documents related to the "Golden Age of Space Transportation," with the space industry becoming a key area of focus. She believes that relevant policy goals will drive the development of the launch industry and may benefit space supply chain companies, including rocket manufacturers and other enterprises.

The U.S. government has proposed a target of achieving 1,000 launch and reentry missions per year by 2030, with rocket companies such as Rocket Lab (RKLB) expected to be beneficiaries. In addition, Serenity stated that other policy areas of U.S. focus this month include: tariffs on drone components; cooperation on U.S. mining and critical mineral resources; adjustments to polysilicon supply chain tariffs; and other strategic industrial policies. By continuously monitoring U.S. government policy documents, it is possible to more directly assess the industry sectors that capital markets will focus on in the future, helping investors identify potential industrial opportunities.

Odaily News Crypto analyst Ali posted on social platform X, stating that the end phases of Bitcoin’s two historical bear markets both exhibited a key characteristic—a sudden, powerful weekly reversal pattern. These “massive bullish candles” often catch the majority of market participants off guard and may serve as a signal for the start of a new bull market. Such moves are typically driven by “short squeezes.” As Bitcoin’s price rises, bearish traders continue to add short positions, but as the rally accelerates, these shorts are forced to cover, further fueling the upward momentum.

Historical data shows that in 2019, near the end of Bitcoin’s bear market, a single week saw a 31.98% surge, followed by the onset of a new upward cycle. In January 2023, amid extremely pessimistic market sentiment following the FTX collapse, Bitcoin posted a 24.90% weekly gain, reversing prior bearish expectations.

A similar pattern may now be unfolding in the current market. Although many investors, based on the “four-year cycle theory,” anticipated a market bottom in October, Bitcoin has recently rallied from $62,700 to $79,500, a one-week gain of 26.81%. If historical patterns hold, this robust weekly reversal could indicate that Bitcoin (BTC) has already entered the early stages of a new upward cycle.

Monitoring by PPP Prediction Market Tool shows that on Polymarket, the probability of "Trump picking Margo Martin as the next White House press secretary" briefly rose to 15% before falling back to 9%, up 5% over 24 hours.

When asked this week at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland about who would succeed White House press secretary Leavitt, Trump suddenly asked reporters: "What about Margo, what do you all think of her?" He also jokingly turned the question back to the reporters on site, saying, "I don't know (who it will be), maybe it's you."

Karoline Leavitt will leave office at the end of August, making "who will succeed Leavitt" a recent focus of U.S. media attention. Margo Martin currently serves as Special Assistant to the President and Communications Advisor, primarily responsible for sharing information about presidential activities via social media.

Odaily Planet Daily News: James Van Straten stated on the X platform that Bitcoin typically experiences upward momentum several weeks before the formation of a golden cross. Currently, both Bitcoin's 50-day moving average and 200-day moving average have turned upward, and the market is approaching a golden cross pattern. In 2022, Bitcoin's price never broke above the 200-day moving average, whereas the current market is forming a new structure. He noted: "This appears to be a new market phase."

A golden cross generally refers to the 50-day moving average crossing above the 200-day moving average, serving as a technical signal for a strengthening medium-to-long-term trend. This indicator is lagging in nature and is primarily used to confirm trend changes rather than predict short-term price movements. Data shows that Bitcoin has historically experienced price increases multiple times before the 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day moving average. Currently, Bitcoin's price has regained the area near the 200-day moving average, marking a significant difference from the 2022 market cycle.

Meanwhile, ETH's total market cap currently stands at approximately 18.8% of BTC's, and the proportion of its ETF capital inflows is significantly higher than the market cap ratio between the two.

Jiang Zhuoer indicated that stronger relative capital inflows may be one of the factors driving ETH's outperformance over BTC recently, with ETH recording a maximum gain of approximately 35.9% this cycle, higher than BTC's 26.6%.

Odaily News The European Commission is evaluating whether to bring DeFi lending and crypto borrowing activities under MiCA regulation, and has launched a targeted consultation on uncovered areas, which will close on September 30. One of the current points of contention is the legal positioning of DeFi lending Vaults. Taking Morpho Vault V2 as an example, its management and risk control authority is distributed across multiple roles, making it difficult to determine who should be considered a regulated service provider. MiCA currently excludes in principle crypto services provided in a "fully decentralized" manner. How the EU subsequently defines actual control and the regulatory entity will be key.
