This Week’s Major Events in Crypto – Brace for Volatility

This week marks the most important macro super week of the year, with three major variables colliding across global capital markets. Monday: ChangXin Technology’s IPO on the STAR Market. Sentiment in the secondary market for the storage sector will directly impact the chip and semiconductor sectors. The crypto market is closely linked to the storage sector. Wednesday to Thursday: Tech giants like Apple, Microsoft, Meta, and SK Hynix will release their earnings reports. AI-related capital expenditure expectations are the key variable—if they exceed expectations, risk appetite will rise; if they fall short, the AI narrative will take a hit. Early Thursday morning: The Fed’s interest rate meeting + U.S. Core PCE data. While the rate decision itself is a given, the key lies in Powell’s comments during the press conference regarding a potential rate cut in September. If hawkish signals are released, high-leverage funds will face liquidation risks. Thursday evening: Bank of England interest rate decision. Friday: Bank of Japan interest rate decision. The market has been anticipating a potential rate hike for the yen—if it happens unexpectedly, global liquidity will be impacted. Three major variables colliding simultaneously: Geopolitical inflation (oil prices remain high) + Global central bank policies (Fed, BoE, BoJ rate decisions) + AI corporate capital expenditure (tech stock earnings reports). Volatility is inevitable, and liquidity expectations are likely to fluctuate. Currently, BTC is hovering around $64,500, sitting on the edge of a breakout moment.
