ChainCatcher news, according to HyperInsight monitoring, Huang Licheng reduced his position in Ethereum long orders, and is currently only $9 away from the liquidation price, and his loss in the past month has exceeded $2.7 million, and he currently holds: long ETH worth $8.91 million, with an opening price of $2,314.57 and an estimated liquidation price of $2,220.22; Long BTC worth $7.93 million, with an opening price of $80,864.5 and an estimated liquidation price of $78,748.

ChainCatcher news, Bitcoin price maintained around $80,350, up only 0.8% in the short term, and continued to be under pressure after multiple failed attempts to break through the $82,000 resistance level. This range is seen as a superimposed resistance level of the ETF cost line, the 200-day EMA, and the CME gap covering area. Although the CLARITY Act has passed the Senate Banking Committee, bringing positive expectations for crypto regulation, institutional funds continue to withdraw. According to the data, the 7-day average of net outflows from spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States fell to -$88 million per day, the largest outflow since mid-February. Analysts believe that this round of selling pressure is more inclined to "profit-taking" rather than panic selling. At the macro level, rising U.S. Treasury yields have become a core source of pressure. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield rose to about 4.52%, a 10-month high, while the CPI rose 3.8% year-on-year in April, the highest level in three years, and market expectations for a Fed rate cut were further delayed. Analysts pointed out that geopolitical conflicts have pushed up energy prices and exacerbated inflationary pressures, thereby weakening the attractiveness of risk assets. In terms of institutional views, some analysts believe that the current ETF outflow is a portfolio rebalancing rather than a trend retreat. The options market shows that Bitcoin faces significant resistance in the $82,000–$84,000 range, with $77,000 as a key support level. If the price falls below this range and the leverage does not cool down, the market may enter a deleveraging stage, exacerbating the risk of a pullback.

Before the outbreak of the Iran war, Mike Riddle, portfolio manager at Fidelity International, was skeptical of the view that global price pressures were easing. His bet against the trend at the time, inflation was about to rise, has now paid off handsomely. A few months ago, he bought inflation swap contracts in the United States and the United Kingdom, essentially to protect against the risk of higher-than-expected inflation. This is because he believes that the bond market (and most of his peers) was seriously underestimating inflation risks before the war in Iran caused oil prices to soar above $100 a barrel. Riddle said in an interview: "Considering the multiple interest rate cuts expected by global investors, the risk of conflict in the Middle East is definitely not reflected in interest rates. Despite slightly reducing his position, he still holds inflation swap contracts. (Jin Shi)

According to the announcement, 100x leverage is currently available to international users in eligible regions, without the need to migrate accounts or apply for additional applications, and can be used directly by existing Kraken Pro futures users. The leverage mechanism adopts a layered model: the first $1 million notional position of the BTC contract can use up to 100 times leverage, and the excess is automatically reduced to a lower leverage level. ETH contracts offer up to 100x leverage on the first $500,000 notional position. The platform emphasized that leverage adjustment is not a "one-size-fits-all" switch, but a dynamic hierarchical calculation as the position size expands.
