Bitcoin has returned above $104,000 following a rather turbulent trading week. As a matter over a GOP tax bill morphed into a major fallout between US President Donald Trump and the world’s richest man Elon Musk, the crypto market experienced significant levels of outflows with Bitcoin prices dipping as low as $101,000 on Thursday. While there has been a modest price rebound in the last 24 hours, the maiden cryptocurrency remains in danger of a price deeper correction.

Bitcoin Bulls Eye Support Near $103,700 And $95,600

In an X post on Friday, analytics company Glassnode shared a potentially impactful on-chain data insight on the BTC market amidst a price correction that has lasted over the past two weeks. During this time, Bitcoin prices have dipped from its current all-time high of $111,970 to its recent low of $100,516.

Presently, Glassnode explains that BTC long-term holders are slowly offloading their holdings with the absence of a clear positive market catalyst indicating that the present price correction might persist for the short-term. In such a scenario, the analytics firm has identified two potential support zones using the Work of Cost (WOC) price model.

For context, the WOC price model by measures Bitcoin value on cost basis by tracking the acquisition price for currently circulating coins. The WOC displays BTC supply in Spendable Supply Distribution (SSD) or Cost Basis Distribution (CBD) quantiles which reflects the distribution of coin acquisition prices.

If Bitcoin’ price correction persists, Glassnode’s WOC indicates the next major support lies at the $103,700 which aligns with the 0.95 SSD quantile i.e. the price at which 95% of circulating (spendable) bitcoin have a lower acquisition price meaning only 5% of Bitcoin supply was bought higher than this price point.

If selling pressure proves overwhelming at this first support level, Bitcoin is expected to hit its next price floor at the 0.85 SSD quantile around the $96,500 indicating a potential price decline of 7.2% from current market prices and 13.8% from BTC’s market high.

Interestingly, this projected price drawdown still falls within a healthy correction range within a broader bull rally. Nevertheless, the bull rally must soon discover a positive market rally rather in the form of marco quantitative easing, increased institutional investments or ETF inflows among others.

BTC Market Overview

At the time of writing, Bitcoin is trading at $104,418 reflecting a 2.98% price gain in the last 24 hours. Meanwhile, the asset’s daily trading volume has dipped by 20.02% and is valued at $51.67 billion.

From Auto Finance to Bitcoin to AI Engines: An Analysis of Cango's 'What Not to Do' Strategy

From Auto Finance to Bitcoin and Now AI: Cango's "What Not to Do" Strategy Cango, a Chinese auto finance platform that went public on the NYSE in 2018, is undergoing its third major transformation. After selling its entire auto business in 2024, it pivoted to become a large-scale Bitcoin miner, acquiring 50 exahash of mining rigs from Bitmain. However, its true goal was never Bitcoin, but owning and controlling energy infrastructure. Now, Cango is pivoting again. While most listed Bitcoin miners are leasing power to giant hyperscalers for AI training clusters, Cango is taking the opposite path. It has launched an AI inference subsidiary called EcoHash, focusing not on training but on distributed inference. The company's strategy hinges on the insight that over 70% of mining industry power is controlled by small, independent sites (10-50 MW), which are too small for hyperscalers but ideal for low-latency AI inference. Cango aims to partner with these small operators, providing the AI technology, customers, and financing through its EcoLink software layer, which can distribute workloads across sites for reliability. Cango maintains a hybrid model, running roughly 31.7 EH/s of Bitcoin mining for cash flow while aggressively cleaning its balance sheet—slashing long-term debt by 94.5% to $30.6 million and raising $75 million for its AI venture. Its first AI deployment will be at a 50 MW site in Georgia. The strategy faces skepticism, given the high costs of converting mining sites and the potential for an AI bubble. However, Cango's leadership believes discipline around "what not to do"—avoiding direct competition with hyperscalers in training—positions it to capture the long-tail demand for distributed AI inference power.

Strategy's Bitcoin Sales Cap Far Exceeds $1.25 Billion: A Detail the Market Overlooked

The article discusses how MicroStrategy's potential Bitcoin sales go far beyond the announced $1.25 billion "reserve-building capacity." It clarifies a key distinction in the company's "BTC Monetization Program": selling Bitcoin to *build* a new dollar reserve (the $1.25B cap) versus selling to *replenish* the existing USD Reserve after it's used for expenses like preferred share dividends. The recent $216M BTC sale for dividend payments was a "replenishment," leaving the headline $1.25B building quota untouched. The plan actually outlines three potential funding pools from BTC sales: 1) Building the reserve ($1.25B cap), 2) Covering preferred share/ debt costs (no specified cap), and 3) Funding buyback programs (up to $20B). This means the structured sales potential exceeds $30 billion, not including uncapped replenishment sales. The piece argues this marks MicroStrategy's shift from a passive "buy-and-hold" Bitcoin proxy to an actively managed entity using BTC as a balance-sheet tool to manage its complex capital structure (common stock, preferred shares, debt, reserve). This creates new dynamics and potential conflicts, as actions benefiting one part (e.g., selling BTC to pay dividends) may pressure another (e.g., undermining the "never sell" narrative). Investors must now parse the company's specific terminology ("build" vs. "replenish") to understand the true scope of future BTC sales, which is significantly larger than the market initially perceived.

Goldman Sachs Report Deconstructs the Competitive Landscape of China's AI Large Models: Who Will Be the Long-Term Winner?

Goldman Sachs analyzes China's AI large language model (LLM) landscape, identifying key players and a strategic shift towards efficiency and global expansion. The report highlights that Chinese open-source/open-weight models are closing the performance gap with top global proprietary models at significantly lower cost, driven by architectural innovations like MoE. This enables a "two-tier" market: a high-end segment (e.g., GLM5.2, Qwen3.7 Max) with pricing at ~$1 per million tokens, and a low-end, price-sensitive global segment. Open-source strategies aid adoption but limit monetization, as deployments via third-party platforms (e.g., AWS Bedrock, Alibaba Cloud) may not generate direct revenue for model creators. The industry is thus moving towards "open-weight + community license" models with revenue-sharing to improve unit economics. Internationally, the focus is shifting from "token maximization" to ROI-driven enterprise adoption, particularly in non-U.S. markets. Major cloud platforms are integrating Chinese models (e.g., DeepSeek, MiniMax). Using a competitive framework based on pricing power, cost advantage, and financial strength, Goldman Sachs identifies **Zhipu AI** and **DeepSeek** as leaders in foundational text models, and **ByteDance** (with Seedance) leading in multimodal/video generation. **MiniMax** and **Kuaishou** are also rated favorably. The firm forecasts China's AI model API/subscription revenue growing from ~RMB 35bn (2026E) to RMB 879bn by 2030.

All about CleanSpark’s addition of 454 Bitcoin and what it means

CleanSpark, a publicly traded company, added 454 Bitcoin to its holdings, bringing its total treasury to 13,924 BTC worth $897.1 million. In 2026, it has sold 258 BTC while adding 1,171 BTC. The news follows a 28% rise in its stock price this year. Other major firms also increased their Bitcoin reserves in June and July. Public companies collectively added nearly 9,000 BTC in June, led by purchases from Strategy and Strive. Notable buyers included DDC Enterprise, MARA Holdings, and CIMG. In July, Strive, American Bitcoin Corp., Boyaa Interactive, and OranjeBTC also expanded their holdings. However, Strategy, the world's largest Bitcoin holder, sold 3,588 BTC for approximately $216 million, citing active balance sheet management rather than a bearish outlook. Meanwhile, Bitcoin ETFs saw net inflows of $35.4 million in July. Overall, corporate Bitcoin accumulation remains strong, with CleanSpark among the key players.

SK Hynix, Fleeing South Korea

SK Hynix, South Korea's leading memory chipmaker and the global leader in High Bandwidth Memory (HBM) crucial for AI, recently listed on the Nasdaq in a record $26.5 billion IPO for a foreign firm. Despite posting a remarkable 77% net profit margin last quarter and generating roughly $30 billion in cash, the company sought a U.S. listing not for urgent funding but primarily for valuation reassessment. In South Korea, it traded at a significant "Korea Discount," with a price-to-earnings ratio around 8x, far below the 23x+ of its U.S. rival Micron. The move aims to attract deeper-pocketed, long-term global institutional investors, granting Hynix access to cheaper capital crucial for the escalating R&D and fab costs of next-gen AI chips like HBM4, which require advanced foundry partnerships. This strategic migration underscores how in the AI era, capital market positioning and valuation efficiency have become as critical as technological prowess, forcing top-tier global assets toward the world's most liquid funding pools.
