"Whale" Sets 10 Major GoalsJason Leo posted a review of recent trading experiences this morning, stating that he is rethinking discipline and risk control in trading.Jason mentioned that during the last cycle, he achieved a profit of about 100 million dollars, but due to a long-term adherence to trend judgment, he failed to stop losses in time after the market reversed, resulting in a significant profit drawdown. This experience led him to summarize two core principles: "discipline" and "risk." He stated that at the beginning of this market cycle, he maintained a trend trading mindset, believing that the target price of Bitcoin would reach 74,000 dollars and that the fluctuations during this period were just part of the upward process. However, as the price gradually approached the target, the risk awareness from past losses began to affect his judgment, leading him to choose to exit early.Jason stated that although Bitcoin eventually reached 74,000 dollars, he was unable to hold on. He believes that the mistake in the last cycle was overconfidence in the trend, while this cycle was marked by the fear of repeating past mistakes, causing him to abandon the trend too early. He concluded that the biggest challenge in trading is not to conquer the market, but to break free from the inherent perceptions formed by past experiences. "If experience cannot change with the environment, it is essentially prejudice; if discipline loses judgment, it is essentially mechanical."

According to CoinDesk, the Crypto Innovation Council (CCI) and the Blockchain Association recently filed a civil lawsuit in Sangamon County, Illinois, officially joining the legal challenge against the state's digital asset tax policy. This move follows a lawsuit initiated by the Digital Chamber last month, marking a further escalation of the industry's coalition against the measures.The plaintiffs accuse the state’s new tax law of violating the U.S. Constitution, the Illinois Constitution, and the Internet Tax Freedom Act. The controversy stems from the tax law's stipulation that any entity conducting business or providing services to residents in the state with an annual income exceeding $100,000 must pay a 0.2% tax on digital asset transactions or storage. Although lawmakers expect this measure to raise $6 million annually for the state budget, the plaintiffs argue that the lack of corresponding taxes on traditional assets constitutes a 'unique punitive treatment' of digital assets, allegedly resulting in unfair resource allocation through the tax code.

The "whale" has set "10 big goals" and will continue to update its trading trajectory and insights on the X platform tonight. It stated that at the position of 72500, it had considered re-entering a long position and had placed a limit order between 70500 and 71500, but it did not get filled. "I wanted to re-enter the long position that I had previously closed. At that time, I placed a long order in advance between 70500 and 71500, while also placing a short order near 76000. My expectation was that if it first retraced to 70500–71500, I would re-enter the long position; if it did not retrace and quickly surged to around 76000, I would make a correction after a round of upward movement. In the end, the long orders below did not get filled, and after the short order at 76000 was filled, the price continued to rise to above 79000.So looking back, the real mistake in this segment was not the medium to long-term direction, but underestimating the strength of this upward trend and trying to bet on a correction too early."Despite the recent loss on a short position, this whale still stated, "Currently, there is still a profit of around 70 million."

The cross-chain yield protocol BounceBit has released a security incident announcement stating that its blockchain network experienced a protocol-level vulnerability attack from August 19, 21:02 UTC to August 20, 01:54 UTC. The attacker exploited an authorization flaw in the underlying architecture of Evmos to transfer BB tokens from 9 mainnet accounts without the account owners' authorization. According to the announcement, the attacker transferred approximately 286.5 million BB through 14 transactions.The impact of the incident is limited to the BounceBit Chain itself and does not involve issues related to private key leakage, signature forgery, wallet, hardware device, or exchange account security. BounceBit's CeDeFi Strategy, Promo Vaults, Prime, and RWA products were not affected.BounceBit stated that the vulnerability originated from a defect in the authorization verification of the protocol's native module within the Evmos architecture. The attacker bypassed the security checks that were supposed to verify the authorization relationship of the funding source account when calling the relevant module through a smart contract, allowing them to designate any account as the source of funds.After the incident, the BounceBit Chain stopped block production at block height 20,702,857. The team then decided not to upgrade the chain but to permanently shut down the BounceBit Chain and reissue BB as a BEP-20 token based on the BNB Chain. BounceBit stated that the new BB token supply will be based on an on-chain snapshot taken before the first abnormal transfer (block height 20,697,260), and the 286,543,148 BB transferred by the attacker will not be included in the new token balance.Users do not need to submit applications or migrate wallets; the official plan is to automatically distribute the new BB to the corresponding BNB Chain addresses. For staked BB, BounceBit stated that it will be restored at the snapshot time, and holders do not need to perform unbinding or redemption operations. Currently, BounceBit has submitted requests for freezing and assistance to relevant exchanges and has reminded users to be vigilant against scams and not to click on any BB migration or claim links that have not been officially confirmed. The team stated that they will announce the new BEP-20 BB contract address and reissuance progress in the future.

According to on-chain analyst @ai_9684xtpa, trader Jason60704294 ("Set 10 Big Goals First") has partially stopped loss on BTC and ETH short positions, with a loss of $10.158 million, and the latest stop-loss price is $80,500.

The whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" posted on the X platform, stating that it has opened a short position again at $76,000. The logic is quite simple: "When I established a long position around $63,000, the target was originally $74,000. I believe the bull market has returned, and this judgment has not changed until now. However, I have always believed that this round should be a volatile upward trend. At least currently, from a macro and market structure perspective, I have not seen enough signals to support this trend."Currently, most of the short positions have been reduced. "Not because I have changed my judgment, but to control risk first. If there is a continued extreme upward pull here, $82,000 and $84,000 are both possible, so there is no need to take a full position to bet that my judgment is definitely correct.If the daily line effectively closes above $80,500, then I will admit my mistake on this trade, close everything, and take a break for a while. If it ultimately cannot hold here and weakens again, I will consider adding back the reduced short positions."The whale "Set 10 Big Goals First" reiterates its medium-term view as follows: "In the medium to long term, I still hold a bullish view on BTC, but being bullish in the medium to long term does not conflict with shorting locally. I am taking this short position to profit from the pullback during the upward process, not to view it as a bear market again. If I am wrong, I will admit my mistake above $80,500. I still believe that we will see $100,000 BTC by March next year."
