$ETH's Inner Core is Breaking Apart

Yesterday, $BTC.X ( ā² 0.79% ) price was at $112K, $ETH.X ( ā¼ 0.53% ) was at $4K, and I was like āLetās keep it going š„ā. But this morning? Not so much. In the past 24 hours, around $745 million got liquidated, $435 million from longs and $310 million from shorts.
In the end, longs lost, shorts lost, CZ won again š

Hereās what we got for you today:
š Historyās about to rhyme?
ā AI now trades better than humans!?
ā Ethereum drama just explodesā¦
š„ Burning hot takes for the road

Why people keep saying something BIG is about to happen? In 2020, gold hit its peak⦠and what followed? BTC exploded from $10K to nearly $70K.
Well, guess what? Gold just topped again in 2025 and the charts are screaming déjà vu. Some analysts are whispering the same line.
If history repeats itself, we might be standing right before the biggest crypto run of the decade. Weāve got the chart, and yeah, itās spooky.

āļø AI NOW TRADES BETTER THAN HUMANS!
Alpha Arena is a live-fire crypto trading tournament built just for AI models, and after just 3 days, the results are already shaking traders' confidence.
The contest, launched by Nof1 Research on Oct 18, pits 6 of the top AI models against each other in real-time crypto markets using real money on Hyperliquid.
Each AI starts with $10K and trades only the top 6 coins via perpetual futures with up to 40x leverage.
And guess whoās crushing it? DeepSeek is leading with $11,253 in equity !!!
Thatās a $1,000+ profit in 72 hours, ahead of all competitors including GPT-5, Grok, Claude 4.5, and Gemini 2.5 Pro. Some highlights:
DeepSeek runs high-leverage trades (avg. 12.5x) but balances risk with smart cash reserves
83% of its trades are long, favoring swing trades (avg. holding time: 21 hours)
Its biggest win? A $1,490 long on $XRP.X ( ā¼ 1.16% ) , in at $2.2977, out at $2.4552
Despite some dips, DeepSeek has led the entire time since launch
Meanwhile:
Claude 4.5 is more selective but efficient, fewer trades, avg. $165 gain per trade, ultra short-term
Grok 4 trades recklessly, held a short XRP too long, lost big, then flipped to full long
Grok's current balance? Around $10,428, almost breakeven
All trade logs, logic, strategies, and wallet addresses are public and updated every 2 minutes. The tournament runs until Nov 3, 2025, and you can watch it unfold live.
Even CZ weighed in this competition. Do you know whatās wild here? DeepSeekās strategy is 100% automated.
ā Its Sharpe Ratio hit 13.3, which is insane even in traditional finance. According to Tobias Reisner, DeepSeek outperforms 99% of human traders.
Hereās what separates the pros from the rest in this new era:
They use AI as a tool, not as an enemy
They understand how money flows and narratives shift across ecosystems
And they dare to go against the data, because while AI sees numbers, humans still see people
AI is a master of analysis. But we can feel guys. And that kind of instinct canāt be modeled. AI wonāt replace you⦠but someone who knows how to use it will.
As AI gets faster, we must go deeper. We canāt win by speed anymore but we can still win by understanding. At the end of the day, markets are still made by humans and belief.

š„ ETHEREUM DRAMA EXPLODES. WHAT ABOUT $ETH?
Ethereum is known for decentralization. But right now, itās dealing with a very centralized controversy.
It started when PĆ©ter SzilĆ”gyi, lead dev of Geth (Ethereumās main execution client), resurfaced a 2024 letter accusing the Ethereum Foundation (EF) of 3 deep-rooted problems:
Fake leadership: Despite his title, SzilƔgyi said he had no real say in EF decisions
Unfair compensation: He earned only $625K over 6 years, despite Gethās critical role
Power circles: A small group (5ā10 people and 1ā3 VCs) allegedly controls funding and influence, orbiting around Vitalik
Of course, this triggered a wave of criticism from major players:
Despite bringing millions to Ethereum, Polygon has never received official support from EF.
He said like āWeāre technically bonded to Ethereum, but not recognized as part of it.ā
If Polygon were a separate L1, it could be worth 2ā5x more, but they stayed loyal, and now, some regret that loyalty.
His Ethereum-based project got zero help from EF. After moving to Sonic (Fantom), he was shocked by the level of support new projects receive there.
He asked: āIf core Geth devs and top L2s arenāt supported, what is EF doing with its funds?ā
Vitalik did reply, but only addressed Polygon, not SzilĆ”gyiās letter. He praised Sandeep and Polygonās massive contribution, especially their work on ZK-EVM.
He also reminded people that Sandeep returned $190M in $SHIB.X ( ā² 0.35% ) during COVID, helping launch Vitalikās Balvi bio-research fund.
He pointed out that Polygon moved too early on ZK tech, which hurt them.
The community is now split:
Some call this a much-needed wake-up call to decentralize EFās power
Others think itās just internal politics, overblown and not representative of EFās full efforts
But even loyal insiders now admit, Ethereum's reality is drifting far from its ideal of decentralization. And the fact that EF controls hundreds of millions, yet core builders and L2s feel ignored, says a lot.
Then, in the early morning of Oct 22, EF transferred 160,000 ETH to wallet 0xc0...0B6d
, which has a history of interacting with Kraken, SharpLink Gaming, and a multisig wallet used to sell ETH in the past.
Are they gonna add fuel to the fire???
