BTC's short-term market change is brewing, and the main force's continuous selling suggests a drop in expectations.

1. BTC pullback prompt adjustment signal

BTC frequently oscillates in the 4-hour chart, and it is difficult for the price to break around us $25000. The bell mouth expansion trend has been constantly verified. The figure shows that BTC is not only at the lower limit of the bell mouth configuration, but also below the middle rail of the brin line. The typical bearish configuration is being confirmed. In terms of trading volume, the BTC trading volume showed signs of contraction, and the shock ratio RSI was as low as 45, which verified the short-term adjustment signal.

Generally speaking, short-term trading can wait for BTC to fall below the brin line. After further verifying the bell mouth expansion pattern, the downward trend can be confirmed.

2. The proportion of main selling pressure remained high

The main selling pressure of BTC maintained a high level, and the proportion of giant whale trading in the exchange has rebounded to around 0.54. In addition, the proportion of main trading has been kept at a high level in the past week, which means that after the increasing selling pressure, the stagnant performance of BTC price has been reflected.

At present, the selling growth of BTC is relatively slow, but the accumulation process is relatively clear. Next, BTC is likely to continue to withdraw from US $25000. Once it withdraws, it can focus on the support effect of US $22500 and US $21000.

3. BTC giant whale trading volume continued to callback

With the continuous pullback of the trading volume of giant whales on the chain, the index value has reached the lowest level in 6 months, which means that the main activity has obviously dropped. In the absence of large capital participation, the rise of BTC was weak, which fully adjusted expectations. Numerically, on August 15, the number of large value transactions on the chain dropped to 59, and the number of transactions exceeded 29500 BTCs. Compared with the average level of 140 transactions in the past three months, the current transaction volume has indeed continued to fall significantly. The drop in the trading volume of the giant whale on the chain and the sluggish rise in BTC prices continued simultaneously, indicating that the pace of adjustment was accelerated.

4. Eth confirms the callback signal twice

Eth's price pullback rhythm is fast. The 4-hour K-line chart shows that the price has fallen below the middle rail of the brin line for two consecutive times, which means that the effect of this decline confirmation is good. Next, the price of eth is not only lower than the middle rail of brin line, but also below the pressure level of USD 1910 corresponding to 61.8% of Fibonacci, and the expectation of further decline is high. In the 4-hour K-line chart, the short-term fluctuation intensity of eth is small, and the price may fall down during the contraction period.

5. Eth of the exchange shows signs of growth

From the perspective of the number of eth on the exchange, the number of eth on the exchange remains at a low level, and the recent value remains around 8.028 million. It is lower than the historical low of 8.985 million in March 2018. This shows that the number of eth on the exchange is still small, but it has continued to pick up recently, with the number of band growth reaching 1.13 million eth. It can be seen that the possibility of eth continuing to flow into the exchange has increased. The increase of eth flowing into the exchange usually increases the selling pressure.

No Sales Team, $20 Million in Revenue: How Did AI Employee Viktor Win Over 30,000 Companies?

The AI employee Viktor, developed by a team with DeepMind background, has achieved $20 million in annual revenue without a traditional sales team, serving over 30,000 companies. Its core innovation lies in positioning itself as a "Tier 3 AI Coworker" capable of "end-to-end execution and delivery of results," moving beyond the "draft and wait for human completion" model of typical AI assistants. Users can simply mention Viktor in Slack or Microsoft Teams using natural language commands, and it autonomously performs tasks like pulling sales data from a CRM, generating reports, or even cross-tool operations like creating board meeting PPTs by aggregating data from six different sources. Key to its growth is a pure Product-Led Growth (PLG) model, eliminating complex implementation cycles and per-seat licensing. Instead, it charges based on task credits or consumption, lowering the trial barrier with a $100 free credit offer and no credit card required. This enabled viral, bottom-up adoption within organizations. Viktor's interaction paradigm removes the barrier of prompt engineering, allowing non-technical employees to delegate complex workflows seamlessly. It also features proactive, automated task execution (e.g., overnight bookkeeping, scheduled reports) based on triggers, effectively embedding AI as an automated "process layer" within business operations. However, its expansion into Microsoft Teams—a platform with 320 million users—highlights challenges. Large enterprises require stringent IT compliance, security reviews (e.g., SOC 2), and governance, potentially hindering the frictionless, user-driven adoption that succeeded in Slack. Additionally, the "black box" nature of its autonomous decision-making raises concerns about operational risks, data integrity, and the need for robust audit logs and permission controls. Balancing efficiency gains with security and trust remains a critical hurdle for Viktor and similar AI agents aiming to become core enterprise infrastructure.

Manus Buyback Plan Emerges: Chinese Investors Plan to Repurchase Equity with $2 Billion, Path to Hong Kong IPO Becomes Clearer

According to a report by The Information, early Chinese investors of Manus, including Tencent, Sequoia Capital China, and ZhenFund, are planning to repurchase the company from Meta for $2 billion—the same price Meta paid in its acquisition last December. This move is a direct response to the Chinese government's prohibition of the foreign acquisition in April. As part of the repurchase plan, Manus is considering establishing a Sino-foreign joint venture within China. This structure is seen as a way to ensure regulatory compliance for its Chinese investors and to pave the way for a future IPO in Hong Kong. Notably, U.S. investor Benchmark will not participate in the buyback, which will concentrate ownership even more among Chinese capital. Since its acquisition by Meta, Manus's business has grown rapidly, with its annualized revenue run rate reportedly increasing four-to-fivefold to $400-$500 million in roughly six months. This strong growth underpins the investors' willingness to repurchase at the original price. Financially, the forced unwinding of the deal may benefit the early investors, allowing them to regain equity at a cost far below the company's current implied valuation, with the added prospect of an independent future listing. However, specific terms of the repurchase, including funding proportions and the joint venture's equity structure, are still under negotiation. This "repurchase-joint venture-Hong Kong IPO" approach could serve as a reference model for other Chinese AI startups navigating cross-border M&A regulations.

STRC Loses Peg by 11%, Can Strategy's Perpetual Motion Machine Keep Running?

The article discusses the significant and concerning depegging of MicroStrategy's (MSTR) preferred stock, STRC. Designed to trade near its $100 target par value, STRC has recently fallen sharply, reaching a low of $83.26 and closing at $88.59, representing an over 11% discount. STRC is a core component of MicroStrategy's financial strategy. As a perpetual preferred stock, it allows the company to raise capital through an "at-the-market" (ATM) issuance program without diluting common shareholders (MSTR). This capital is primarily used to purchase Bitcoin, creating a "capital flywheel": issuing STRC → raising cash → buying BTC → increasing net assets → supporting STRC's value. The flywheel's operation depends on STRC maintaining its $100 price. To enforce this, MicroStrategy employs a dynamic dividend mechanism, recently raising the rate to 11.5% and increasing payout frequency. However, this has failed to halt the depegging, indicating market concerns extend beyond yield. Analysts cite two main reasons. First, technical factors like forced liquidations from leveraged arbitrage trades may have exacerbated the sell-off. Second, and more fundamentally, is waning confidence in MicroStrategy's financial resilience. A JPMorgan report highlighted the company's limited cash relative to its ~$1.7 billion annual dividend obligation, raising liquidity concerns. While MicroStrategy counters that its massive Bitcoin holdings provide decades of coverage, this argument relies on the potential need to sell BTC—a departure from its long-standing "never sell" narrative. The company's recent sale of a small amount of Bitcoin for "testing," despite being framed as minor, has intensified these fears. The persistent depegging threatens to cripple MicroStrategy's primary funding channel. If STRC remains discounted, the company's ability to fund further Bitcoin purchases weakens. Should cash reserves dwindle while financing is constrained, the market may increasingly price in the risk of MicroStrategy becoming a forced seller of Bitcoin to meet obligations. This shift from a major marginal buyer to a potential seller could pose significant downside risk to the broader Bitcoin market.
