Liquid Capital founder Jack Yi stated on the X platform: "As expected, there has been a slight pullback. If it continues to pull back to around $75,500, it will be a great new opportunity, and I remain optimistic about the rise after the slight pullback. Investing and trading are the hardest things. I entered the mining circle in 2015 at a low BTC price and later successfully invested in Quantum and others, catching the crazy bull market of 2017. This was entirely a matter of luck, but at the time, I thought it was skill, as I had previously achieved some success in entrepreneurship and investment in classical industries.Later, I crazily invested in hundreds of projects, most of which failed and a few succeeded. As investment opportunities decreased, I began to work hard on learning trading, which requires even more respect. I succeeded in trading nine times in a row, but the tenth failure brings me back to square one."

According to Cointelegraph, Bitcoin failed to effectively break through the $80,000 mark, with BTC/USD dropping to $78,442 on the Bitstamp platform, a decline of about 1% for the day, after Federal Reserve Chairman Kevin Walsh delivered a cautiously toned speech in Jackson Hole. In his speech, Walsh reaffirmed the Fed's commitment to the 2% inflation target and downplayed the significance of the recent decline in CPI and PCE data.Walsh stated that although these broad inflation indicators have significantly retreated from their highs a few years ago, the progress over the past two years has been relatively modest. The better-than-expected PCE and CPI readings this summer do not indicate that the underlying trend has materially improved. He also noted that the forward guidance, a conventional practice introduced during the financial crisis, "is now outdated" and will not return in the future. U.S. stocks were not weighed down by his remarks, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indices both rising by about 0.5%.On-chain data shows that there is a dense resistance zone between the current spot price and $86,000, which suppresses upward momentum. QCP Capital analysis pointed out that even if the price breaks through, the derivatives market needs to support it by controlling funding rates and the growth rate of open interest. The key is whether the subsequent market movement is driven by spot participation or leveraged positions. As of the time of writing, BTC/USD has risen 26.35% this month, marking the best August performance since 2017.

According to Gate market data, since Federal Reserve Chairman Waller's speech, spot gold and silver have significantly retreated in the short term.

Coinkite's hardware wallet Coldcard has been exposed for a serious entropy vulnerability, which has gone undetected since 2021, resulting in over $100 million in Bitcoin being stolen, with victims mostly being users of single mnemonic wallets. The weak entropy allowed attackers to guess private keys through customized means, prompting the Bitcoin community to reassess the reliability of single-signature self-custody.Against this backdrop, multi-vendor multisig solutions are becoming the new custody baseline recommended by long-term holders. This solution requires users to construct multisig addresses using keys from different wallet vendors, such as Trezor Safe 7, Ledger Nano, and Casa recovery keys to form a 2-of-3 multisig, thereby reducing reliance on a single hardware vendor. Multisig can also defend against wrench attacks and has given rise to Bitcoin insurance services priced in BTC, such as AnchorWatch.However, multisig also has its drawbacks; users not only need to keep threshold keys but also need to save copies of the multisig script or template to independently recover funds when the wallet service is offline.

Core Lightning maintains that node operators should shut down their nodes unless they upgrade to an unreleased version. This warning was spread via Discord and amplified by Cashu protocol developer Calle, who stated that there is a serious vulnerability. The fix binary has not yet been released, and the details of the vulnerability are under a two-week confidentiality period.This is the fourth security alert for Bitcoin infrastructure in four weeks. Previously, a Coldcard firmware vulnerability led to approximately $114 million in BTC being stolen, and issues have also arisen with Boltz and BTCPay Server. The CLN team stated that they have received multiple AI-generated CVE reports in the past 10 days and are intensifying verification and fixes.

On August 25, Galaxy launched the GalaxyOne Crypto Portfolio Line of Credit (PLOC) product for eligible U.S. customers. Users can pledge BTC, ETH, and SOL (including staked SOL) to borrow cash within a single revolving credit limit, without having to sell any crypto assets. The product has no initiation fees, features a variable annual interest rate of 8.99%, and a 50% initial loan-to-value ratio, meaning that $100,000 in pledged assets can borrow approximately $50,000.Galaxy stated that the value of the pledged assets will be continuously monitored, and warnings will be issued in advance if the assets decline; withdrawals are typically credited instantly, and funds can be used on the platform or withdrawn as USD and USDC stablecoins. The staked crypto assets will not be re-pledged or lent out, and staked SOL can continue to earn rewards while being used as collateral. Zac Prince, Managing Director of GalaxyOne, stated that with Galaxy's institutional infrastructure, they are able to launch this product with competitive rates, security, and flexibility.This product is offered by GalaxyOne Lending LLC in 40 states, excluding California, Delaware, Idaho, Indiana, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Nevada, and South Dakota. This move is seen as an attempt to restart retail crypto lending on a regulated track after the collapses of Celsius, BlockFi, and Voyager in 2022, contrasting with the model of freezing customer funds and forced liquidations that year.

XRP has dropped 6.23% in the past 24 hours to around $1.38, making it the token with the largest decline among the top ten cryptocurrencies by market capitalization. Previously, XRP surged from around $1 on August 18 to $1.69, an astonishing increase within four days, briefly touching the psychological level of $1.7.The pullback is mainly due to leveraged liquidations. XRP has still risen 35.55% over the past week, second only to Hyperliquid's 38.65% weekly increase. Notably, XRP-related ETFs have recorded net inflows for nine consecutive days, indicating that institutions have not withdrawn, and the issue mainly lies in the leverage aspect rather than capital outflows.After breaking through $80,000 on Tuesday, Bitcoin has retreated to around $78,000, dragging down the overall altcoin market. The market is awaiting tonight's core PCE inflation data and Nvidia's earnings report; whether XRP can hold the $1.4 support level will determine if this rally is a healthy correction or a further decline.
