I used to think coding was the biggest barrier. If you wanted your own indicator with clear buy/sell signals and alerts, you had to spend hours learning Pine Script, or hire someone to do it for you.
The model I’m about to share isn’t magic. I’ve studied setups from experienced traders and turned them into something that’s simple but workable. Right now, it wins just over 30% of the time, enough to start learning and improving 👇

🚨 BTC FACES 87% FED RATE HIKE ODDS. CAN U.S. TREASURY SAVE THE RALLY?
Get ready for volatility. $BTC ( ▲ 1.58% ) is hovering around $77,250, down from its $82,000 peak earlier this month, right as we head into a major decision day for the global economy.
On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve drops its latest interest rate decision, and the market is pricing in a massive surprise.

1/ Fed's Wednesday Bomb & White House Drama
The futures market is flashing red alert: CME FedWatch shows an 86.5% chance of a 0.25% rate hike, with prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket both sitting over 80%.
August inflation (CPI) came in at 3.4% year-over-year (up 0.4% in a single month). When the numbers dropped, BTC went on a rollercoaster: dropping from $77,400 to $76,000 before jumping up to $78,000.
→ That wild swing wiped out $130 million in liquidations in just one hour, crushing longs and shorts equally.
Fed Chair Kevin Warsh is facing his biggest test 4 months into the job.
Back in July, the Fed kept rates at 3.50%-3.75%, but 3 committee members dissented and demanded a rate hike right then and there.
White House advisor Kevin Hassett claims the Trump administration "100% supports" Chair Warsh.
But Donald Trump publicly insists there is zero reason to raise rates. The funny part? Trump spent years bashing former Chair Powell for keeping rates high, but now his own appointed pick might be the one to raise them!
2/ Is the U.S. Treasury Stealing the Fed's Power?
While everyone is staring at the Fed, Custodia Bank CEO Caitlin Long points out that the U.S. Treasury is quietly taking over the driver's seat.
When long-term bond yields hit 20-year highs, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent stepped in. The Treasury is running a massive bond buyback program, doubling purchases to $4 billion per round from September 9 to November 4.
→ Using the nearly $1 trillion sitting in the Treasury General Account (TGA), they’re injecting liquidity to force interest rates on bonds back down. UBS strategists note that the bond market is what actually sets real-world economic conditions, not just Fed announcements.

The GENIUS Act takes full effect on January 18, 2027. So far, the Treasury and the OCC have already rolled out official rules, while the Fed hasn't released a single thing.
The Treasury now decides which foreign stablecoins get U.S. market access. Caitlin Long predicts that tokenized bank deposits (bank money moving directly on blockchains) will eventually dwarf standard stablecoins, even as traditional banks warn about funds flowing out of standard accounts.
🧠 My Take: A Battle Between Interest Rates and Treasury Cash
Don't let the Fed headline panic you. Even if Kevin Warsh raises rates by 0.25% on Wednesday, the Treasury’s massive $4B-per-round buybacks are acting like a giant liquidity cushion underneath the market.
The real story here is the power shift from the Fed to the Treasury. As long as Scott Bessent keeps the Treasury money tap open, BTC has a solid safety net holding up price action around these levels.
Keep your leverage low until Wednesday's announcement settles out!

🚨 REVOLUT LEAKS PASSPORTS & BTC DATA AFTER FALLING FOR FAKE EMAIL
On September 12, Revolut confirmed that it accidentally sent private user details to an unauthorized third party. The worst part is that the hackers didn't even break into Revolut's servers, they just sent an email pretending to be a gov. agency.
1/ How the Scam Worked
The attacker used an official email address from a real government domain. Because the domain was legitimate, the email passed standard security checks. Revolut thought it was a legal request from law enforcement and handed the data right over.
Once they realized the mistake, Revolut blocked the email address, notified the spoofed government agency, and informed law enforcement, data protection bodies, and financial regulators.
Revolut stated that customer funds and internal systems were not touched or breached.
It directly contacted affected users, but refused to state exactly how many people were impacted, whether the leak was isolated to one country, or which government agency was fake.

Attackers want Revolut to pay up
2/ Leaked Data: Passport Photos, IBANs, and BTC History
If you were affected, here’s what was exposed:
Basic personal info: Full names, dates of birth, jobs, home addresses, emails, and phone numbers.
Full KYC dDocuments: Passport copies, driver’s licenses, and selfie photos used during identity verification.
Banking & crypto history: Account statements, IBAN numbers, wallet reference codes, withdrawal history, and full transaction logs, including specific Bitcoin transactions.
3/ Real Danger: Targeting High-Net-Worth Holders
On-chain detective ZachXBT quickly sounded the alarm on this leak. He pointed out that while the total number of affected users might be relatively small, the attackers likely targeted specific high-net-worth individuals.
When bad actors get their hands on your full name, physical home address, selfie ID, and exact Bitcoin balances. They know exactly who has money and where they sleep.
→ It creates serious real-world physical safety risks, including targeted home invasions, extortion, physical coercion, and tailored phishing scams.
4/ SafePal and Trezor Hit Too
A tracking system flaw exposed the data of 39,798 customers, leaking names, contact details, shipping addresses, and purchase history (though private keys and funds remained safe).
Trezor breach #1 (ShipMonk): A third-party shipping partner breach exposed 67,000 US customers, leaking names, emails, phones, shipping addresses, and order codes.
Trezor breach #2 (Email Provider): Hackers breached Trezor's email provider shortly after, sending fake phishing emails directly from Trezor's legitimate domain.
