Market Dynamics and Trend Analysis

Policies and Regulations

Trump nominated Stephen Miran to fill the vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board, serving until January 2026. Miran supports a rate cut policy and has proposed central bank reform plans, including the divestment of bank regulatory powers. This move is seen as a signal that monetary policy may shift towards easing. Trump also signed an executive order directing relevant departments to facilitate investments in cryptocurrencies and other alternative assets for retirement savings plans.

Analysts believe that if cryptocurrency assets account for 1%-10% of retirement plans, it could lead to an influx of between $80 billion and $800 billion. This move marks the formal entry of Bitcoin into mainstream compliant investment channels, helping to attract stable long-term capital, reduce market volatility, and strengthen Bitcoin's status as a store of value.

Local Market Dynamics

Several companies in the Hong Kong stock market are laying out RWA( real-world assets), driving related stock prices up. Analysts point out that companies with RWA tokenization capabilities and strong technological research and development capabilities have a competitive advantage. These companies can enhance the liquidity of traditional assets and optimize investment portfolios through technological innovation. At the same time, investors are warned to be cautious of companies lacking substantial technological investment and long-term planning, to avoid the risks that come from blindly following trends.

Cryptocurrency Market Analysis

Bitcoin breaks through $117,500. Analysis shows that after hitting a new high in July, the BTC price has entered a narrow oscillation phase, with the potential interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve in September being a potential positive factor. The supply in the range of $110,000 to $116,000 is relatively light, and the market may need time to accumulate new support. If it cannot break through the resistance at $116,900, it may dip to $110,000, but the short-term holder cost line at $106,000 still provides support.

Ethereum recently reached a new high, approaching the $4,000 mark. Analysts believe that the strengthening of ETH may indicate an upcoming explosion in the altcoin market. The ETH/BTC ratio has rebounded by about 75%, injecting momentum into the altcoin sector. Institutional investor interest is strong, having accumulated approximately 1.6% of the total supply of Ethereum. Some analysts even predict that the price of ETH could reach $16,000.
