They turned a murder into a meme coin. Within hours of Charlie Kirk, Trump’s ally, being shot on stage, a token called $CHARLIE was already live. What started as public mourning… became a liquidity event. And the worst part? Some are calling it justice.

Here’s what we got for you today:

  • 🌝 Can $WLD moon?

  • ⭐ $BTC, $ETH, $BNB going vertical

  • ⭐ 'Justice tokens' after Trump's ally got shot

  • 🔥 Burning hot takes for the road

99% of people in crypto are flying blind. They check prices. They follow influencers. They FOMO in. But they never look at what really moves the market. We know, it’s hard…

In this part 1, we’ll show you exactly how to see all of that, using the same tools as analysts at top funds:

Worldcoin was sinking. Most people were ready to write it off. Then suddenly… boom, a $250M treasury buy. A public company went full MicroStrategy-mode on $WLD.X ( ▼ 9.94% ) . So can it pump hard?

🧐 CPI HITS, BTC LIFTS. ALT SEASON IS BREWING

Markets had been holding their breath for this one. We just got the latest U.S. CPI report, and it’s exactly what markets wanted:

  • CPI (Aug 2024): 2.9% y/y → in line with forecasts

  • PPI (wholesale inflation): 2.6% → much softer than the 3.3% estimate

The crypto market exhaled and moved green 💚 Total crypto market cap now: $4.11T, up 1.8% in 24h.

$BTC.X ( ▲ 0.98% ) jumped to $114,034 right after CPI hit, and by this morning was testing $116,000. $ETH.X ( ▲ 3.51% ) reclaimed $4,500. $BNB.X ( ▲ 1.53% ) hit $905 (another ATH test). $SOL.X ( ▲ 5.55% ) touched $237. There’s a deeper story here.

  • Fed rate cut odds for Sep 18 meeting are now at 92.7%

  • Traders now price in 3 total rate cuts before end of 2025

  • Lower rates = more risk-on appetite → good for crypto

With this neutral CPI + soft PPI combo → we got short squeeze fuel. Altcoin Season Index (AltSS) also surged to 78 → a key breakout zone (75+ often signals full-blown alt szn)

The Fed is in a tricky spot. They need to ease without looking like they’re panicking. So when CPI hits exactly 2.9% and PPI surprises to the downside, it gives them room to breathe and that’s why risk-on assets like crypto immediately react.

Meanwhile, Coinglass data shows nearly $190M in derivatives liquidations in just 12 hours.

  • Shorts = 84.3% of that total → classic squeeze move

  • Traders now price in 3 rate cuts by end of 2025

But don’t be fooled, this move isn’t just CPI-driven. It’s positioning-driven. Too many shorts. Too much leverage. CPI was the trigger, but the real force behind this bounce is sentiment unwind + liquidity expectations.

If the Fed does cut next week, this might just be the spark for Q4’s bull run.

But as always, don't chase green candles blindly. Stay sharp, size well, and manage your risk.

☠️ TRUMP’S ALLY GOT SHOT, ‘JUSTICE TOKENS’ TOOK OVER

After the shocking death of Charlie Kirk during a live event, meme-style tokens exploded overnight.

Some are calling them a tribute. Others say it’s a cash grab wrapped in fake sentiment. 'Justice for Charlie' tokens surged in hours, some up tens of thousands of %, only to crash soon after.

It's deja vu for those who remember meme coin frenzies like $PNUT.X ( ▲ 1.17% ) (remember the squirrel story?) or Dogefather spin-offs.

But this time, it’s different. This time, real people died! Charlie Kirk, 31, was shot dead during a public event in Utah. The nation publicly mourned.

Then came the tokens.

$CHARLIE.X ( ▲ 20.99% ) tokens launched within hours of the news going viral:

  • DexScreener tracked dozens of wallets quickly flipping tokens → classic pump-and-dump signs.

  • Analysts claim $2M+ was pocketed by insiders, with 700+ wallets linked to one main contract.

I think the people launching these tokens know the emotional pull they’re using. They count on virality, anger, curiosity. And the sad truth? It works.

We don’t need to accept every new token as innovation. Sometimes, the bravest move in crypto… is to not trade at all.

And if Charlie Kirk, Trump’s ally, can be shot that easily, it forces a question we don’t want to ask:

“What if something happens to Trump - crypto’s loudest political supporter?”
