加密资产市场复苏速度“低于”我们的预期,货币扩张趋势转向过程中的混乱与冲突阻压抑了行情。

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

本报告所提及市场、项目、币种等信息、观点及判断,仅供参考,不构成任何投资建议。

9 月 18 日,美联储启动降息周期,首次降息幅度为 50 基点。这标志着 2022 年 3 月启动的加息周期的彻底终结,也意味着美联储及美国政府相信针对疫情超发货币的流动性回收任务已经取得胜利,关注点转移到这副“猛药”的负作用——对经济和就业的伤害上来。而预防经济受损最好的方式之一便是让货币供应重回扩张周期。

9 月 24 日,中国政府针对经济、股市和房地产市场宣布空前激进的货币政策,在原有降息降准基础上加大流动性释放。这意味着,世界第二大经济体决定以强力增加货币供应和推动权益市场上涨来对抗消费萎靡、房地产下跌及就业率的攀升。中国股市(含港股)创纪录的强势反弹吸引了全球资本市场的目光与资本流动。

加上此前已在降息的欧洲央行,全球四大央行中的三家已经启动货币宽松政策。其所掌控的货币发行总量约为 23 万亿美元,占全球货币总发行量的 20% 左右。

意义非凡, 2024 年是全球主要央行转向货币宽松的年份。这一转向是后疫情时代重振经济的必要手段,同时也是新一轮资产价值重估的起点。

作为新兴权益市场,Crypto 资产也将迎来货币扩张背景下的价值重估。EMC Labs 对后市持谨慎乐观态度,判断内部调整充分的加密市场将在降息周期打开牛市下半场。

美元、美股、美债和黄金

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

美元指数

降息启动,美元指数略有反弹之后重回跌势,及至月底再次逼近 100 关口,回到 2022 年 4 月的点数。随着降息持续进行,跌破 100 或只是时间问题。

得益于权益市场的提前定价,美股相对“平顺”地度过了 9 月,七八九三个月月内三大指数均进行了剧烈震荡以再平衡各路资金的分歧,在月度周期内纳斯达克、道琼斯分别获得 2.68% 、 1.85% 的涨幅。但因为提前定价,股指并未实现出现大幅上涨。一个必须面对的现实是,目前的美股估值已经体现了一定幅度的降息预期,并不显得“便宜”。交易员们似乎暂时找不到交易的依据。这成为困扰美股上涨的最大障碍。

对于美国经济前景,市场各方依然在使用 CPI 和就业数据进行推测和定价,最大的争议点在于美国经济实现“软着陆”还是“硬着陆”,以及 11、 12 两个月的降息幅度。目前,美股价格基本完成对“软着陆”的定价,如果数据恶化,可能会出现向下定价以预防“硬着陆”引发的投资风险。这是最大的不确定性。这种不确定性的消除可能要等到Q4晚些时候才能完成。

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

美 10 年期减 2 年期国债利差

伴随降息,美债市场亦出现趋势性改变。对美国经济长期发展的忧虑,导致 2 年期国债收益率自 2022 年 7 月起长期高于 10 年期国债。这一趋势在刚刚过去的 9 月得以扭转,目前 10 年期与 2 年期国债息差已经回正达到 0.16 。这意味着国债投资者初步完成对美国经济“软着陆”的确认。

作为美债之外的另一个重要投资标的,伦敦黄以月度 6.21% 的大幅上涨回应货币扩张周期的到来。如此之大的月度涨幅表明,较大规模的资金在经济前景不确定的时候选择了稳妥标的。

作为 Crypto 市场的表征,BTC 承担着类似大盘指数的功能。目前 BTC 的定价控制在 BTC ETF 通道资金手中,但此类资金似乎拒绝将 BTC 视作“数字黄金”而更乐于将其视作“七巨人”类的科技股。这一联动使得 BTC 在 9 月企稳并实现 7.35% 的涨幅,涨幅高于纳指,但仍受制于纳指走势止步于 65000 美元,并未完成对前高的收复。

突破前高的路径有两条。其一纳指收复前高,BTC 跟随突破;其二场内资金拿回定价权。如果实现第二条路径,牛市下半场走势将会更加积极。基于谨慎原则,我们将“突破前高”视作资金恢复流入以及场内资金提高风险偏好提振 Altcoin 标的的必要条件。

BTC 供应结构

我们将市场周期视作长短手在时空范围内的价值转移现象。自 12 月长手持仓到达顶点之后,持续减持至 5 月,自 6 月起启动本轮上升周期的二次增持截止 9 月底持仓已经回升至 1407 万枚。这一结构重整有利价格上行。

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

长短手持仓变化(月度)

分析所有链上 BTC 的分布,可以发现截止 9 月 29 日超过 87% 的 BTC 处于盈利状态。5.4 万~ 7.3 万“新高整理区”分布筹码为 624 万枚,与截止 8 月 31 日相比增加 23.83 万枚。目前最大持仓价格已经由 8 月底的 58893 美元提升至 65518 美元。价格重心的持续上移有助于减轻价格上行过程中的抛压。

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

BTC 成本结构

值得注意的是在 9 月下旬,伴随 BTC 的反弹,长手再次开始了试探性减持,而短手开始了增持。这种“由长入短”是流动性复苏的信号,同时也会再次考验买力强度。如果买力难以吸收卖压,市场存在反复甚至下行的可能。如果反复,长手可能会再次重回收集,如是市场收复前高的时间将被延长。截止目前,我们还不能断定“由长入短”的新趋势已经展开。

资金面

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

稳定币及美国 11 支 BTC ETF 月度资金流动统计

资金方面本月亦有乐观表现,两大通道消弭分歧均录得正流入,总规模为 37.88 亿美元,其中稳定币通道为流入主力,规模达到 25.88 亿美元,上月处于流出状态的 ETF 通道本月恢复流入,录得 12 亿美元。

然而值得忧虑一面同样存在,自 7 月流入规模恢复以来,七八九三个月流入规模呈逐月缩小趋势。在各国股市整体向好背景下,BTC 亟需突破前高以上涨效应吸引资金加速流入。

在“新高整理区”盘整 6 个月过程中,稳定币及 ETF 通道迄今流入规模超过 380 亿,这些资金承接了“新高整理区”的抛压,将这一区域超过 600 万枚 BTC 的成本价格刷新到 64000 美元左右。

技术指标

EMC Labs 9月报告:尘埃落定,货币扩张启动时的混乱与冲突

BTC 价格走势(日)

技术指标是中短线交易者的重要交易抓手。目前市场属于资金持续流入、流动性正在恢复的初期,短线交易者的决策对市场走势有着举足轻重的影响。

64000、 66000、 70000、 73000 美元是短线重点关注价格,分别代表短线成本压制、下降趋势线压制、上升趋势线反转压制和新高压制。本月对已经呈现下降偏移的 200 天均线的突破具有较大意义,这个 64000 美元的价格也是短线成本价和 8 月反弹的高点。这个关口的“有效”攻克非常重要,之后便是 66000 美元和 70000 美元的突破。目前 4 个关键价格位尚有 3 个没有突破,希望应在 BTC ETF 通道的资金身上。

73000 美元的有效突破,则意味着场内最保守资金的觉醒和场外资金的次第入场。

下半场的可能性

在此前报告中,我们多次提及牛市第一阶段的动力主要来自场内资金的仓位回补和 BTC ETF 批复前后的新增资金。随着全球主要央行进入流动性扩张阶段,EMC Labs 判断,后继 BTC 资产价格的上升动力主要来自货币扩张引发的价值重估和传统资本对 BTC ETF 的新增配置。

随着风险偏好逐步提升,本轮 Crypto 牛市下半场,注意力和资金将逐渐流入调整充分的 Altcoin。我们判断 BTC 市占率将逐步下行,从本轮最高点的接近 60% 向 40% 靠拢。Altcoin 将在反弹行情的普涨之后逐渐分化。我们重点关注代表产业发展方向、拥有技术或模式创新、具备用户获取能力、代币模型友好的区块链基础设施和Web3应用。

结语

目前,EMC LABS 研发的 eMerge Engine 显示上升期指数已修复至 0.75 ,逐步进入温和扩张状态。这一指标的修复标志着 BTC 生态和市场结构的极大修复,也是我们屡次强调的内部结构调整完毕 BTC 已做好准备在更大流动性冲击下去标记更高的价格。

预判并以行动参与市场的发展将得到丰厚回报。我们认为,提升风险偏好、积极的态度和果敢的行动已成当下阶段的最优选择。

最大隐忧来自美国经济会否“硬着陆”。“硬着陆”一旦发生,风险偏好下降导致资产价值下估,美股可能出现年度走弱行情,如是加密资产市场恐难走出独立行情。

此外,中国股市的疯狂反弹亦吸引了国际资本的一定流入。考虑到此次反弹来自中国政府空前的货币政策投入(10 月也将陆续出台各类财政政策),我们认为中国市场的反弹具备一定的持续性,国际资本的流入也将持续。这无疑会影响美股的反弹和稳定,进而可能影响到对风险偏好度有更高要求的 BTC 和整个 Crypto 市场。

这种负面影响来自全球货币政策转向过程中必然发生的混乱与冲突。短期必然引发 BTC 价格的持续波动,但不改我们对其长期走势的判断。

In the Era of Agent Users, Where Does Crypto Value Flow?

Title: Who Makes Money from Agents? The rise of AI Agents as potential blockchain users raises a crucial question: if they become the next billion users, who will capture the value? Traditional crypto value capture theories—like "fat protocols" (where value accrues to the base layer) and "fat applications" (where value accrues to user-facing apps)—assume human users who value UX, brand, and convenience. Agents, however, operate differently: they interact via APIs, have no brand loyalty, and can switch services with near-zero cost. This shift could disrupt existing value flows. Applications might become "headless," offering their routing and infrastructure as APIs to Agents. Alternatively, Agents might bypass intermediaries entirely, allowing protocols to regain value capture ("fat protocols" reborn). A more extreme scenario is that Agents, being purely rational and cost-sensitive, could commoditize the entire stack, compressing margins toward marginal cost and turning crypto into a low-margin utility. However, Agents may not just amplify existing activities; they could enable entirely new ones—like continuous, sub-penny portfolio rebalancing, machine-to-machine commerce, and new market types only viable at automated speeds. This expands the economic pie rather than just redistributing it. Ultimately, the key question for builders is: what will make an Agent return to your service instead of a cheaper alternative? The answer may not be UX but factors like liquidity, latency, settlement guarantees, or a yet-unnamed business model. As humans and Agents will coexist as users, value capture may split: "fat apps" for human-facing services, and a new, evolving model for the Agent-dominated layer.

Base MCP, The Next Step for x402

Base has officially launched Base MCP, allowing users to connect their Base Account to AI Agents to perform actions like swaps, transfers, portfolio tracking, and transaction history queries through conversational commands. This move aligns with Base's strategic focus on AI, driven by the broader competition in the emerging Agent-to-Agent payment sector. The evolution of Agent payments has accelerated. In late 2024, the primary method involved insecure browser automation. By 2025, solutions like Coinbase's x402 (providing crypto wallets for Agents), Google's AP2, and Visa's token-based system emerged. x402 has since processed 176 million transactions totaling over $70 million, with a median value between $0.01 and $0.10. Stablecoins, particularly USDC, dominate these settlements due to their negligible transaction costs compared to traditional payment fees, which are prohibitive for micro-payments. Coinbase faces competition from Stripe, which has built a comparable infrastructure for Agent payments with its Tempo blockchain, Privy wallets, Bridge routing (acquired for $1.1B), and the recently launched MPP protocol. Both companies are now competing at the application layer. The core reason AI is central to Base's strategy is to expand the scenarios for Agent payments, ensuring more transactions occur on its network. By securing a dominant position and scale advantage in this nascent field, Coinbase aims to capture the future commercial potential of Agent-driven payments. The launch of Base MCP is thus a strategic step in this larger ambition.

Reframing Ethereum's Valuation: Why the Fee Model is Wrong, and the 'Treasury Logic' is the Future?

"Rethinking Ethereum's Value: The 'Vault Logic' Framework" Traditional valuation models incorrectly treat Ethereum as a company, valuing ETH based on transaction fees ("revenue"). This is flawed. Fees are network friction; a successful network aims to reduce them to zero. Ethereum's average fee has dropped from over $50 in 2021 to around $0.20 today, while transaction volume has tripled. Instead, view Ethereum as a digital vault securing ~$250 billion in on-chain assets (stablecoins, RWAs, L2 bridged funds, wBTC, etc.). Post-merge, Ethereum's security is directly purchased with its own asset: ETH. To attack the network, an attacker must acquire and control staked ETH. Therefore, the vault's security level is intrinsically tied to ETH's market value. Currently, the value of all staked ETH is only ~$72B, protecting ~$250B in assets—a dangerous imbalance. For robust security, the staked ETH securing the network should be valued significantly *higher* than the total value it protects. Applying a conservative security multiplier suggests ETH's fair value should be closer to ~$6,900 (vs. ~$2,070 currently). As on-chain asset value grows into the trillions, ETH's price must rise proportionally to maintain this security budget. Comparisons to free infrastructure like Linux or low-margin utilities like the DTCC are misguided. Their security is provided externally (community, law, banks). Ethereum's security is internal and must be purchased in the open market using ETH. ETH is not the clearinghouse; it is the collateral backing it. The model is not a short-term price predictor but a structural framework. The economic force for ETH appreciation grows monotonically with the adoption of Ethereum for settling value. The narrative that high fees are good is backwards; low fees enable more activity, which increases the value needing protection, thus demanding a more valuable ETH.

Justin Sun’s Interview with Hurun Report: A New Order and Certainty for Value Flow in the Era of Transformation

In an interview with *Hurun Report*, Justin Sun, founder of TRON, discussed the evolution of the Web3 industry as it moves from initial exploration to large-scale adoption. He emphasized that the core value of blockchain lies in building an open and inclusive internet of value, enabling anyone globally to transfer and use funds efficiently and at low cost, regardless of location or access to banking. Sun highlighted that projects with lasting impact are those built on genuine demand and real-world usage. He pointed to the stablecoin payment ecosystem as the most mature and scalable application currently, noting that TRON has rapidly become one of the world's largest stablecoin networks. The circulation of USDT on TRON has surpassed $86.3 billion, driven by actual use cases such as cross-border transfers and daily payments, demonstrating strong network effects. Regarding strategy, Sun outlined a methodology combining data-driven iteration, rapid execution, and user-centric focus. He cited the decision to partner with Tether to launch TRC-20 USDT as a key strategic move, based on an assessment of market trends and long-term potential, which has become a significant growth engine for the TRON ecosystem. On globalization, Sun stressed the importance of local compliance and cultural adaptation, noting that success in different markets depends on deep understanding and local partnerships. He also addressed the convergence of AI and blockchain, describing it as a transformative direction where blockchain provides decentralized infrastructure for AI, while AI enhances the intelligence and user experience of blockchain systems. For industry participants and young entrepreneurs, Sun advised continuous learning and adaptability in a fast-changing environment, focusing on building irreplaceable core strengths rather than spreading resources too thinly. Through infrastructure development, global strategy, and technological foresight, TRON aims to advance the practical implementation and evolution of the value internet.

Samsung Leverages Technology Cycles, SK Hynix Relies on HBM, What Enabled Micron to Win a Trillion-Dollar Market Cap?

Micron Technology, the Idaho-based memory chip maker, recently saw its market cap surpass $1 trillion, securing its position as one of the top three DRAM manufacturers alongside Samsung and SK Hynix. Its survival and growth story is marked by a unique combination of political maneuvering and hard-won manufacturing efficiency, but also strategic missteps that now challenge its future. Founded in 1978 in Boise without significant government or capital backing, Micron repeatedly turned to Washington for survival during critical junctures. In the 1980s, it filed anti-dumping complaints against Japanese firms, leading to the U.S.-Japan Semiconductor Agreement. Ironically, this created an opening for Samsung, which Micron had earlier licensed its 64K DRAM technology to. In 2002, Micron avoided heavy fines in a price-fixing investigation by acting as a whistleblower against its competitors, cementing its reputation as a "political opportunist." A major strategic error occurred in 2013 with its $2.5 billion acquisition of bankrupt Japanese firm Elpida. This deal burdened Micron with integrating incompatible manufacturing processes just as the industry was pivoting toward HBM (High Bandwidth Memory), a critical technology for AI. SK Hynix had launched its first HBM chip that same year. By the time AI demand exploded with ChatGPT in 2022, SK Hynix commanded about 85% of the HBM3 market, while Micron, playing catch-up, held only around 3%. In 2017, Micron employed similar tactics against a new competitor, Chinese startup Fujian Jinhua, by alleging intellectual property theft, which led to U.S. sanctions effectively crippling the firm. However, this strategy backfired in 2023 when China banned Micron's products from its critical infrastructure, causing its revenue share from China to plummet from 14% in FY2023 to just 7.1% by FY2025. Today, Micron faces a triple squeeze: it lags in the high-margin HBM race, faces pricing pressure in low-end DRAM from Chinese manufacturers like CXMT, and has lost crucial access to the booming Chinese AI server market. Despite its political strategies, Micron's core strength is its exceptional manufacturing cost control, achieved through decades of engineering. Its DRAM chips have a smaller cell area than its rivals, yielding more chips per wafer. This efficiency has been vital for weathering industry downturns. However, this advantage cannot compensate for the decade lost in HBM development. Micron is now racing to ramp up production of its HBM3E, certified by NVIDIA, and develop HBM4. Its future hinges on whether it can close this technological "time debt" through relentless R&D and execution, in a marathon where its competitors, having started earlier, are not slowing down.
