MEXC Alpha Trader – Industry Daily (August 7, 2026)

· BTC price: $64,348 (24h -0.28%) · Funding rate: +0.0019%

· Fear & Greed Index: 38 (Fear) 

(Key Event Preview)

· The market awaits the release of non-farm payroll data to confirm expectations of an economic slowdown; Fed's Daly stated that aggressive interest rate measures would be taken if inflation pressures intensify.

 

· Spot gold stands above $4,300 per ounce, up $250 this week; the US July ADP employment figure came in at 44,000, missing expectations, and combined with cooling inflation factors, pushed gold prices higher.

· Key Catalyst: Worse-than-expected employment data strengthens rate cut expectations, while low speculative positioning and short covering amplify gold's breakout gains, and safe-haven sentiment heats up.

Tech Stocks / SpaceX (High Volatility)

· SpaceX's first lock-up period expired, unlocking 912 million shares (corresponding market value of approximately $123 billion), raising circulating chips to 12%; hedge funds suffered losses exceeding 10% from semiconductor stock sell-offs and faced forced liquidations, with JPMorgan pointing out increased volatility in tech stocks.

· Key Catalyst: Large-scale chip unlocking tests the market's absorption capacity, and hedge fund liquidation spillover exacerbates capital outflows and volatility in the tech sector.

Crude Oil (Geopolitical Safe Haven)

· Iran seeks to charge transit vessels passing through the Strait of Hormuz a fee of 5% to 7% of the cargo's value; Trump stated "perhaps we have no choice but to let oil prices go up," implying tacit approval of rising oil prices.

· Key Catalyst: Strait control and transit fee policies raise energy transportation costs, and rekindled expectations of an inflation rebound constrain the Fed's room for rate cuts.

 

· Purpose Investments deposited 42,000 ETH (approximately $80 million) into the beacon deposit contract within 3 hours, accounting for 36.6% of its total ETF holdings.

· Yesterday, US BTC spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $244.4 million (BlackRock IBIT accounting for $196.8 million), and ETH spot ETFs saw a net inflow of $60.8 million (BlackRock ETHA accounting for $50.3 million).

· Grayscale Q2 rebalancing multi-asset fund: Smart Contract Fund increased BNB holdings, DeFi Fund sold UNI, AI Fund removed NEAR.

· Robinhood Chain's DEX trading volume in the past 24 hours exceeded $322 million, ranking fifth across all chains.

 

· The proposed Iran-Oman agreement intends to grant Iran control over vessels entering the Gulf through the Strait of Hormuz, with Oman proposing a 3% transit fee.

· Since Warsh became Fed Chair, Trump has spoken with him on the phone multiple times to seek advice on relevant issues, with the two maintaining a non-standard communication channel. (Security Incidents)

· Major Wall Street hedge funds such as Point72 and Citadel recently suffered cyberattacks like voice phishing, where attackers impersonated customer service to obtain employee login credentials.
