CRCL | Weekly Structure | Wave 2 Pullback Into Add Zone

Thesis: CRCL is currently going through what I view as a Wave 2 pullback after the initial post-IPO advance. I started building the position in early August and I am now looking to continue adding through this correction. As long as the current structure remains constructive, I see this pullback as part of the normal development of the larger bullish cycle, with approximately $230 as my first major target and the $280-$300 area as the second. Context - Weekly timeframe - CRCL is part of my broader long-term thesis around stablecoins, digital assets and the tokenization of finance - I started building the position in early August with my first entry around $60.70 - I continued adding through August and my current average is approximately $64.50 - Circle is the company behind USDC and is increasingly building infrastructure around institutional onchain finance - Arc is designed as financial-market infrastructure for payments, settlement and tokenized assets - Its founding validator group includes institutions such as BlackRock, DTCC, ICE, Mastercard, Standard Chartered and Visa - CRCL fits naturally alongside my existing exposure to BTC, ETH and COIN What I see - The first major impulsive move from the lows looks like a Primary Wave 1 - Price is now correcting in what I currently count as Primary Wave 2 - The pullback is moving back through the main Fibonacci retracement levels of the first advance - The 0.382 Fib sits around $86 - The 0.5 Fib sits around $80 - The 0.618 Fib sits around $75 - This is the type of corrective structure I prefer to use for accumulation rather than chasing price after an impulsive move - The objective now is for price to establish support and eventually complete Wave 2 What matters now - The $75-$80 area is the first important support zone I am watching - A deeper Wave 2 would not automatically invalidate the larger bullish structure - I want to see the correction remain controlled and eventually develop a clear base - Once Wave 2 is complete, the next important confirmation will be a move back through the recent highs - That would strengthen the case that Primary Wave 3 is underway - Until then, patience matters more than trying to predict the exact bottom Buy / Accumulation zone - I started building CRCL in early August with my first entry around $60.70 - I continued adding through the month and my current average is approximately $64.50 - I plan to continue using DCA while the Wave 2 structure remains constructive - I prefer building during corrections rather than chasing strength - The current retracement is therefore an area I am watching for further additions - My horizon for this position is long term and tied to the broader development of stablecoins and tokenized financial infrastructure Targets - First support area: approximately $75-$80 - Wave 1 high / breakout area: approximately $110-$120 - Primary Wave 3 target: approximately $230 - 0.786 Fib reference: approximately $233 - Primary Wave 5 target area: approximately $280-$300 - Current 1 Fib reference: approximately $281 Portfolio note CRCL is not a standalone trade for me. It is part of a broader investment theme I am already expressing through BTC, ETH and COIN: the gradual migration of financial infrastructure toward regulated digital assets, stablecoins and tokenized markets. Circle sits directly inside that transition through USDC and, increasingly, through the infrastructure it is building around Arc. That fundamental thesis is why I am comfortable approaching the chart with a longer time horizon. I already started building the position near $60.70 and continued accumulating through August. The current correction does not change that thesis for me. For now, I am treating this as a Wave 2 pullback and looking for opportunities to add gradually while the larger structure remains intact. If the count develops as expected, approximately $230 is my first major upside target, with the $280-$300 area as the next larger objective.

ETH / USD (4-Hour Chart)

I am mapping out a strong bullish macro scenario for Ethereum following a short-term downside manipulation. I expect the price to first face rejection from the minor resistance and make a push downwards. This drop will serve to sweep the sell-side liquidity resting below the relative equal lows marked with "$$$". After purging this liquidity, I anticipate the price to tap into the lower major demand block and undergo an accumulation phase, as illustrated by the yellow path. Once buyers step in and build a base around this zone, I foresee a strong bullish reversal initiating a major markup phase targeting the ultimate upper supply zone.

ETH – Bearish Breakdown Below 2389 Neckline, Eyes on 1975

ETH is pressing into the 2389 neckline zone that has been tested repeatedly, and it's showing clear signs of weakness. 🟠 Why This Level Matters: Price broke structure lower and is now sitting on the 2389 support that has been defended multiple times. Two liquidity grabs into the 2549 highs failed to hold, sweeping buy-side liquidity before rolling over. Repeated tests of the same neckline usually drain the level and set up the break. 🟠 Gameplan / Primary Scenario: Sell the break of 2389. The moment price closes below the neckline, we ride continuation lower, targeting the 1975 region for a 17.3% decline into the origin of the rally. As long as 2389 keeps failing to attract fresh buyers, the path of least resistance is down. If this added value, boost it forward. What are your thoughts? Swallow Academy

Justin Sun Establishes the Justin Sun Prize: “My Wealth Came from Mathematics and Will Return to Mathematics”

Geneva, Switzerland — September 16, 2026 — The Office of Justin Sun today announced the establishment of the Justin Sun Prize, a zero-trust, decentralized academic bounty mechanism based on a “problem list,” with breakthroughs in fundamental disciplines and machine formal verification as the criteria for awarding prizes, and a top prize of up to US$1 million for a single problem. The prize seeks to redefine scientific rewards in the AI era and accelerate fundamental scientific research through collaboration between humans and AI. The first list of Justin Sun Prize winners was also announced, recognizing solutions and formalized proofs involving 66 mathematical problems. The top prize, worth US$1 million, was awarded to the OpenAI research team in recognition of its solution and formalized proof for the Existence and Smoothness of the Three-Dimensional Navier–Stokes Equations problem. According to information published by OpenAI, the relevant proof was produced by its internal model, and the Lean formalization and verification were completed by GPT‑6 Astra. This problem concerns the Navier–Stokes equations, which describe the motion of fluids and are commonly abbreviated as the N–S equations. The equations were developed in the 19th century by French physicist Claude-Louis Navier, Irish-born British mathematician George Gabriel Stokes, and others, and have a history of approximately two hundred years. In 2000, the Clay Mathematics Institute listed the Navier–Stokes Existence and Smoothness problem as one of the seven Millennium Prize Problems and offered a US$1 million reward for its solution. The Justin Sun Prize does not use traditional nominations or credential thresholds as barriers to entry, nor does it operate on a four-year cycle or the rhythm of lifetime achievement. Instead, it ties the prize directly to mathematical problems and machine-verifiable formalized proofs. Anyone can receive the prize as long as they are the first to achieve a qualifying breakthrough. The vision of the Justin Sun Prize is to become the “Nobel Prize of the AI Era,” responding to the profound transformation of scientific research and incentives in the new era in a more decentralized, formalized, and machine-driven way. The repository of mathematical problems and formalized code will be maintained and publicly updated on an ongoing basis. Once a problem is listed, it is locked in: problems can be added only, never removed; awarded prize funds do not need to be returned under any circumstances. The current problem list already includes formal verification of the Poincaré Conjecture, the Riemann Hypothesis, Goldbach’s Conjecture, and a large number of unsolved problems proposed during the lifetime of the late mathematician and Wolf Prize laureate Paul Erdős.   In addition to the prize, winners will also receive a certificate and a medal. The edge of the medal is inscribed with the Latin phrase “Quod probatur, solvitur,” meaning “Proved, then paid.”   The Justin Sun Prize adheres to three core principles: openness, public benefit, and open source. It is open to all eligible contributors, with no restrictions based on nationality, institution, or identity, and makes no distinction between humans and AI; funds are used exclusively for prize awards and open initiatives and are not intended for profit; the problem list, confirmation standards, proofs, and verification materials are all made available to the public through GitHub, while prize disbursement records are recorded on-chain for permanent traceability and immutability.   “An award named after a person is the least political thing in the world,” said Sun. “More importantly, it gives me an answer to myself—my wealth is rooted in mathematics. It came from mathematics, and it will return to mathematics.”    According to public records, Sun has donated more than US$45 million across technology, environmental protection, disaster relief, and other fields. The Justin Sun Prize will become a central focus of Sun’s philanthropic efforts, continuing to support breakthroughs in fundamental science through an open and verifiable model.   The prize will be paid out in either USDT on TRON (TRC-20) or USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20) based on the recipient’s choice. For more information, please visit www.hejustinsun.com/prize.    About the Office of Justin Sun The Office of Justin Sun supports Justin Sun’s global business, philanthropic and public initiatives across technology, blockchain, artificial intelligence, scientific research, investment, art and space exploration.    Justin Sun is the Ambassador and former Permanent Representative of Grenada to the World Trade Organization and the Founder of TRON. TRON is the leading blockchain for the stablecoin revolution, processing over $13 trillion in volume since its inception. In the world’s emerging markets, people rely on USDT on TRON to access the global financial system.   A protégé of Alibaba founder Jack Ma, Sun has been recognized internationally for his work in the digital asset industry, including a Forbes cover profile in April 2025 and multiple appearances on the Forbes 30 Under 30 list. In August 2025, he flew aboard Blue Origin’s NS-34 mission, becoming the 712th person in history to travel to space. His broader interests span technology, investment, philanthropy, art, gaming, and space exploration.   Office of Justin Sun Contact: info@hejustinsun.com    About Justin Sun Prize  The Justin Sun Prize is an academic initiative established by Justin Sun to support advances in mathematics, formal verification, and AI-assisted scientific discovery. The prize is decentralized and built around the principle that mathematical work should be judged by the strength, rigor, and verifiability of the proof itself, not the prestige or reputation of those submitting it.   Justin Sun established the prize in his own name as a long-term commitment to return wealth created through mathematics and technology back to mathematics itself. Its legacy is intended to be defined by the body of work it recognizes and the laureates whose discoveries stand the test of time. The prize links clearly defined mathematical challenges to machine-verifiable proof. Its guiding principles are openness, public benefit and open-source access.   Visit https://www.hejustinsun.com/prize for more information.    Contact: thejustinsunprize@hejustinsun.com

MEXC Releases July–August Security Report: Over 38 Million USDT in Risk-Related Funds Intercepted, Futures Insurance Fund Reaches 792 Million USDT

Mutsamudu, Comoros, September 16, 2026 – MEXC, a pioneer in 0-fee digital asset trading, has released its July–August 2026 security report. The report shows that MEXC successfully intercepted all 215 reports involving risk-related funds during the period, covering approximately 38.66 million USDT. The total balance of the Futures Insurance Fund rose to 792 million USDT. Meanwhile, the reserve ratios for BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC all remained above 100%.   In July and August 2026, the crypto industry recorded 184 security incidents, with reported losses totaling approximately $535 million. Phishing and fraud incidents, together with endpoint and supply-chain security incidents, accounted for approximately 48% of the total. At the same time, a growing number of attackers are using AI to auto-generate phishing content and help write malware, increasing the efficiency of their attacks. As attack methods become more diverse, promptly identifying and intercepting risk-related funds and strengthening cross-platform investigation have become increasingly important to reducing user losses.   All 215 Reports of Risk-Related Funds Successfully Intercepted, Covering 38.66 Million USDT In July and August, MEXC assisted with 215 reports involving externally stolen or fraud-related funds flowing into the platform. All 215 cases were successfully intercepted, covering 38,655,490 USDT. Of these cases, 42 involved assistance with judicial freezes. Compared with the previous reporting period, the number of successfully intercepted cases increased by approximately 2,971%, while the value of intercepted funds increased by approximately 12,646%.   In tracking and handling risk-related funds, MEXC shared suspicious addresses with major industry participants, assisted in identifying fund flows, and supported verification and freezing procedures under established joint-investigation and law-enforcement cooperation procedures.   Over 20,000 Risk-Related Accounts Identified and Restricted, With More Than 600,000 USDT in Misdirected Assets Returned In account risk identification, MEXC identified and restricted 20,752 accounts associated with risk-related activities during the period, an increase of 118.03% from the previous reporting period. The platform identified 5,288 risk groups, up 20.35%. By region of origin, these groups were concentrated primarily in the Commonwealth of Independent States (1,803), Nigeria (1,099), and Indonesia (976).   For user asset recovery, MEXC manually processed 818 applications for the return of misdirected assets, returning the equivalent of 602,225 USDT, an increase of 75.31% from the previous reporting period.   Futures Insurance Fund Reaches 792 Million USDT, Strengthening Protection Against Negative Balance Risk As of September 1, 2026, the total balance of the MEXC Futures Insurance Fund reached 791,696,422 USDT, an increase of 5.44% from the previous reporting period.   The Futures Insurance Fund covers negative balances that may arise during liquidation, providing a risk buffer during extreme market conditions and helping reduce the likelihood of auto-deleveraging (ADL). When a liquidated position is closed at a price better than the bankruptcy price, the remaining funds are credited to the fund. Users can view the real-time balance on the MEXC Proof of Trust page.   Reserve Ratios for Four Major Assets Remain Above 100%, With BTC at Approximately 288% According to the proof of reserves disclosed for this period, MEXC maintained reserve ratios above 100% for four major assets, as follows:   Bitcoin (BTC): reserve ratio of approximately 288%, with total wallet assets of 12,312.75 BTC against 4,282.20 BTC in user assets; Ethereum (ETH): reserve ratio of approximately 113%, with total wallet assets of 66,227.79 ETH; USDT: reserve ratio of approximately 115%, with total wallet assets of approximately 1.940 billion USDT; USDC: reserve ratio of approximately 114%, with total wallet assets of approximately 194.85 million USDC.   The on-chain addresses corresponding to these reserve assets have been disclosed, allowing users to verify through the Merkle Tree whether their individual account balances were included in this proof of reserves.   As an additional layer of user asset protection, the MEXC Guardian Fund maintains a dual-reserve structure of USDT and BTC: USDT provides immediate liquidity support, while BTC serves as a long-term reserve asset across market cycles. MEXC plans to expand the fund from $100 million to $500 million, continuing to strengthen user asset protection. The relevant holding addresses are listed below:   Guardian Fund Wallet Addresses: USDT: 0x469AfE803C54A36674C55231489Cf4b61da8c1bC BTC: 1MDVjZdX8QD212pT8Z8EMP7DuFQHKqN3mx   MEXC CEO Vugar Usi said, “Trust is the true reserve currency of this industry. Protecting user assets means moving decisively the moment risk emerges, while giving users something they can verify for themselves, not just our word for it. We will continue to strengthen our ability to identify and intercept risk-related funds, deepen cooperation across platforms and with law enforcement, and help affected users recover their losses wherever possible. Our bi-monthly security reports are part of that commitment, allowing our security performance to be measured and tracked over time.”   About MEXC Founded in 2018, MEXC is a leading global multi-asset trading platform built as your 0-fee gateway to infinite opportunities.

ETHUSDT Analyses-38, September 16, 2026

Welcome to my page! I share daily technical analyses of crypto and other charts here. BINANCE:ETHUSDT 💡Market Analysis: ETH remains under short-term bearish pressure, but price is now reacting from the 2373 support zone and trying to stabilize above the 2400 area. The current setup is a potential long scenario only if price confirms the reclaim of the trigger zone around 2406 with a strong bullish candle body above 80%, or breaks out and then holds the level on a clean pullback. If that confirmation appears, the first upside objective is the 2501 resistance. After that, the next important levels are 2570 and 2630. On the other hand, if price loses the 2380-2373 support area, the long setup becomes weak and invalidation is triggered. As with my previous signals, I treat the marked solid and dashed levels as trigger zones, not automatic entries. Confirmation always comes first, then execution with controlled risk. Key Support & Resistance: Key Resistance: 2501 / 2570 / 2630 Key Support Area: 2400 / 2380-2373 🎯 Trade Entry & Exit Plan: Entry : Breakout/Pullback of trendline or key zones with >80% candle body confirmation around 2406. Stop Loss : Below the last support wave and the marked invalidation area, around 2380. Take Profit : First target 2501. Further targets 2570 and 2630. Secure profits from R:R 2 and above. ⚠️Risk Management: Maximum 1% risk per trade. ❤️Follow me for more: @EhsanZeydabadi
