Odaily News: Solana Company (HSDT) has announced its voting stance on the first three Solana Governance Proposals (SGP): supporting the passage of SGP-0001 "Solana Constitution," opposing SGP-0002, which would double the rate of inflation reduction, and opposing SGP-0003, which would change transaction fees from fixed to floating. On-chain voting is expected to begin on August 22.Solana Company stated that it supports the Solana Constitution because the new governance system allows every staker to vote directly, and token holders can always override the votes of the operators they delegate to, which helps institutions participate in network decision-making. Regarding the other two proposals, the company noted that it opposes their current timing, not the direction of the adjustments. The company stated that at a time when institutions are considering entering Solana, they place greater importance on rule stability and predictability. Adjusting core economic parameters such as inflation rates and fees at this stage could make institutions still on the sidelines more hesitant. The company said it would support revisiting discussions on reducing inflation once SOL sees sustained net capital inflows, and would also be willing to reconsider switching to floating fees once the ecosystem has fully adapted.

Odaily News, Blockworks analyst Shaunda Devens stated on the X platform that Kraken may be testing Hyperliquid's HIP-3 (Builder-Deployed Perpetuals) new compliant deployment feature, potentially becoming one of the first centralized exchanges to explore this mechanism. BlockworksData shows that a deployer named "Kraken HIP-3 test DEX" has enabled permission management functionality (Star gating) on the Hyperliquid testnet and went live for testing on August 19. Currently, this test DEX has completed whitelist settings for 10 wallets, tested 3 of the 5 compliance control features, and registered a "Kraken Exchange Validator."Shaunda Devens noted that Hyperliquid has been continuously adding testnet features to support regulatory-compliant HIP-3 deployments, including whitelist management, canceling user orders, closing positions via reduce-only orders, and moving collateral. These capabilities are similar to the risk control mechanisms required by traditional financial institutions' compliant trading platforms.Although this is still in the testing phase, and any user could deploy a test DEX with a similar name, making it impossible to confirm it definitively belongs to Kraken, combined with Hyperliquid's recent expansion of xStocks functionality and Kraken's parent company Payward's involvement in related business initiatives, analysts believe Kraken may be testing HyperCore's new infrastructure targeting institutional and compliant markets.HIP-3 is a third-party deployed perpetual contract market framework introduced by Hyperliquid, allowing eligible developers to create independent perpetual trading markets on HyperCore's order book infrastructure. It is considered a key upgrade direction for Hyperliquid to expand into traditional assets and institutional trading scenarios. If large compliant exchanges like Kraken enter the HIP-3 ecosystem, it could further drive the integration of on-chain derivatives markets with traditional financial trading systems.

According to Odaily, on-chain analyst Ember detected that a whale opened long positions worth $80 million in BTC and ETH on July 6, when the market dropped following MicroStrategy's announcement of a token sale, and has held them ever since. The BTC long position was opened at $62,353, while the ETH long position was opened at $1,762. With the market rebound over the past two days, the long positions established by this whale one and a half months ago have generated $21.1 million in unrealized profit.
According to Odaily, CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost stated that Bitcoin's recent Realized Profits have reached their highest level since 2026. Data shows that as of August 20, the market had accumulated approximately $1.65 billion in realized profits that day, indicating that a large number of investors are taking profits at current highs.Darkfost noted that as realized profits continue to climb, the market requires sustained new demand to absorb selling pressure. At present, buyer demand remains stable and is able to absorb the supply pressure from investors exiting with profits. If capital inflows and market demand continue to hold up in the coming period, the current increase in profit-taking activity does not yet pose a significant risk; however, if demand weakens, the growing profit-taking sell-off could exert downward pressure on prices.

Odaily News: Peter Brandt, a renowned trader and chart analyst who successfully predicted the Bitcoin crash in 2018, stated in a post yesterday that Bitcoin had previously exhibited an inverted head-and-shoulders pattern within an overall downtrend, leading him to hold a bearish view.

Previously, on July 20, he had projected that the current market cycle would bottom out on October 4, 2026, and believed that Bitcoin's returns over the next two to three years could outperform AI stocks.

Odaily News – After surging to a record high of nearly $5,600 earlier this year, gold prices faced a sharp sell-off. In the three months through June, gold posted its worst quarterly performance since 2013, but the current sustained rebound is quickly repairing this technical breakdown. Driven by a combination of factors, gold is poised to emerge from the shadows of its worst quarterly showing in a decade. Amid the two-way tug-of-war between long-term structural deficits and short-term pullbacks, Wall Street is anchoring its 12-month gold price target at $5,400.Despite the optimistic long-term structural outlook, several analysts warn that gold still faces significant macroeconomic headwinds and potential correction pressure in the near term.

Odaily News: Geoff Kendrick, Global Head of Digital Asset Research at Standard Chartered Bank, stated that the forecast of Bitcoin reaching $100,000 by the end of the year may be too conservative, and there is a possibility of challenging the previous all-time high of $126,000 before the year ends.On Friday, Kendrick noted that the recent Bitcoin rally has been primarily driven by short liquidations, while inflows into spot Bitcoin ETFs have also begun to recover. Given the currently low open interest levels in the market, more investors could re-enter as prices rise, providing further momentum for the rally."This is the first time this year that I've seen a risk that my year-end target of $100,000 may be too low," Kendrick said.Kendrick believes that Bitcoin's rebound momentum could accelerate further after October 6. Meanwhile, several market observers also believe the bear market may be nearing its end. Cory Klippsten, CEO of Swan Bitcoin, previously stated that Bitcoin could bottom out in October; Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, suggested that if the August monthly close stays above $63,000, it could confirm the formation of a bear market bottom.
