3 weeks ago I purchased a new 100k challenge at @breakoutprop💫 Passed the 2 step within 24 hours and currently up 16% 🥳. The only platform that treats traders as a partner instead of a product. Thank you for building such an amazing platform❤️@Tradermayne @CryptoCred

Strategy's $STRC problem: Saylor has used the issuance of STRC to fund billions of dollars of Bitcoin purchases for the better part of the last year. The pitch? STRC sits above common shares with a $100 stated liquidation preference and have an attractive dividend of 11.5%, which gets bumped up gradually when the shares are trading below $99 avg. It naturally incentivizes buyers because the liquidation preference is economically supported by Strategy's ~844K Bitcoin on the balance sheet after debt and senior preferred claims, and the effective yield rises as the STRC price falls (e.g. at $92 STRC the effective yield is 12.5%). So, what's the problem? Their total debt preferred senior to common claims are roughly ~$22.2B. Most of which isn't a problem ~currently~ (but there are billions of dollars worth of notes that become puttable in 2027-2028... and if MSTR is below conversion economics or refinancing markets are closed, those become hard cash obligations). Their preferred dividends are currently ~$1.7B annually. And they only have ~$900M cash on hand... so the runway math doesn't look great. So where does the money come from? The yield has to come from somewhere. Their revenue from the software company alone is only ~$500M/yr. That doesn't come anywhere close to what's needed. They realistically have two options for raising capital: 1) Sell more MSTR... They currently have ~$26B common ATM capacity available to them, but the issue is they're currently trading at an mNAV well below 1 already. Tapping into this is incredibly dilutive for common shareholders. 2) Sell more Bitcoin... Saylor already effectively broke the trust he's established for years to "Never sell Bitcoin" when he made a 32 BTC sale last week. The sale was tiny, but it gave the market a concrete reason to price the possibility of future BTC sales. But the primary purpose of STRC is to raise more capital to buy more Bitcoin, right? So in order to buy more Bitcoin, they have to sell Bitcoin. But we saw what the market did after a small 32 BTC sale. BTC took a massive hit in anticipation that there could be more sales... The machine is breaking. Strategy can defer dividend payments though if they want, right? Yes, but unpaid STRC dividends accumulate and then compound monthly. So this isn't a long-term viable option. Deferring STRC dividends preserves cash, but turns STRC from a cash-yield product into distressed preferred equity. And if the payments aren't being made to STRC, will any investor have confidence to buy it at a discount? And if STRC is carrying a massive discount, it effectively eliminates it as an option for Strategy to use to continue funding new BTC purchases... e.g. if STRC is $70, they'd be selling $100 of future liabilities for $70 of current credit. Not a great trade. Reminder that STRC's $100 is not a redemption peg. Holders cannot simply demand $100 back in normal conditions. The price is maintained by confidence, yield support and Strategy's desire to preserve the funding channel. If this dynamic persists, the largest corporate buyer of Bitcoin could shift from accumulating to liquidity management via selling or make the common shareholders of MSTR carry the burden by diluting them substantially (for as long as that can last). I could see this collapse happening fairly swiftly. It doesn't mean that MSTR necessarily dies off or is forced to immediately sell all of their Bitcoin (that door could be opened early though with something like a change of control of the company, delisting, etc.)... Not sure what the solution is, but one thing is certain: I would not want to be holding $MSTR right now. The risk is not that STRC instantly becomes worthless. The risk is that once STRC trades like distressed preferred equity, Strategy loses a major funding channel while its dividend burden and note put wall remain. The flywheel effect and the fear from what we've seen with previous major collapses (e.g. Luna / UST, FTX, 10/10, etc.) could lead to something similar here. This doesn't mean I'm bearish on Bitcoin. I actually think it'll create an insane buying opportunity. MSTR isn't Bitcoin. If it does fail, plenty of people will try to claim BTC failed along with it. We've seen it happen plenty of times with plenty of other names. Every time the people digging Bitcoin's grave were wrong. This time isn't any different.

Think we're still the only AI Company in the tokenized space that actually trains and hosts models So, the real total market cap of crypto AI coins is actually about $1.5mil, the rest is just Web2 re-seller and wrapper value

Today's gameplan: I am hinting towards yesterday being a fake pump to excite people so today can be dumped hard at FOMC day. Still in a $BTC short from the local swing high. Will short $SOL when we sweep the mid swing cluster. #bitcoin #solana

To fully sausage-pill future fans, they need to understand the value of being rewarded for their participation. And as the brand grows, the rewards for the $NOBODY community only get bigger. In short: Products Sold ➜ % $NOBODY Tokens Purchased ➜ Tokens Utilized for Fan Rewards, Onboarding, and Future Digital/IRL Initiatives. These token buybacks aren’t arbitrary. Every purchase flows directly back into the Nobody Sausage ecosystem, transforming digital value into real-world impact. $NOBODY is rewriting the playbook. When the brand wins, the fans win, and the whole ecosystem levels up, propelling us up the IP ladder to go head-to-head with the biggest names in the world. More massive activations are coming. Countless buybacks on the way. The Sausage is inevitable.
The Blueprint Nobody Sausage has built one of the most engaged communities in digital entertainment with 35M followers generating billions of views. It’s partnered with Netflix, Adidas, Sephora, Ryan Reynolds, Decathlon, and Hugo Boss, because of its immense following. But it is time to bring this community together. This is the advantage that Web3 offers. Going forward, the focus shall be to onboard the existing massive fanbase of Nobody Sausage into the $NOBODY community. Now, we’re entering the next chapter by connecting fan participation directly to brand success. Buyback mechanism Nobody Sausage has focused itself on its massive social media following and has accrued pent up demand for product. New product is coming, and with big partners. We have MILLIONS of fans across social media. That audience isn’t crypto native, it’s mainstream fans ready to spend on the characters they love.

Treasury Replenishment: A portion replenishes the NOBODY treasury to fund future marketing, product development, and community initiatives. We’re converting real-world sales from millions of consumers into value for token holders. Commerce is driving token demand. Why This Works Traditional entertainment brands take the fans for granted and struggle to retain or build fandom over longer periods. The $NOBODY token and underlying platform onboards them into a system that is self-fulfilling. Brand Growth → Product Sales → Token Buybacks → Increased Demand → Community Growth → Deeper Engagement → Brand Growth The Fan Experience: Making Crypto Invisible The 35 million Nobody Sausage fans don't want complexity; they want deeper connection to a brand they love.

Only interested in a potential $BTC short in current area if we manage to sweep this week's high set on Monday. The weekly low seems a great target for a scalp.

Watching for a potential short on $SOL. Those highs seem great for a potential deviation play. #solana

The US and crypto markets just lost a few trillion. But why? - Bitcoin went below $87,000 - S&P 500 -1.5 trillion -Crypto -3 trillion It seems there was no news, and Nvidia earnings surpassed expectations again, reviving the market for a short while, so what happened? We think it was the BLS and macro data again! Nov 19, BLS (Bureau of Labor Statistics) revises calendar, admitting it won't ever release Oct Jobs, and won't share Nov jobs report until after the FOMC meeting Dec 10. Nov 19, the latest FOMC minutes get released, highlighting division among members about the need for another rate cut in December, and reiterating their reliance on data. Nov 20, BEA (Bureau of Economic Statistics) says it won't release GDP. Nov 20, BLS releases a surprisingly good jobs report for September (contested by our independent data). Good jobs report signals a good enough economy. A good economy and inflation not below 2% signals the Fed has still some time before it needs to cut interest rates. The lack of data from BLS and BEA signals the Fed won't have enough info to decisively push interest rate cuts on Dec 10 (they are driving in the fog and need to slow down as per Jerome Powell's words). The odds of December interest rate cuts alter dramatically on the prediction markets like Kalshi and Polymarket, panic spreading on X as macro KOLs share the news. Markets dump, pricing in a "no more interest rate cuts this year." To them, it means no influx of liquidity necessary for the crypto and stock market revival. In summary, yet again, the data from a gov agency that uses a 100-year-old methodology to collect its data from consumer surveys becomes the main market mover, spreading fear and taking trillions off the board. Why? Because the markets believe the BLS data, or lack thereof, deeply influences the Federal Reserve's decisions. Which it sadly does. This is why inflation and labor data is king. This is why we need better data. And this is why we still sadly need to try to predict the faulty data of the BLS to know what the Fed might do. We do this at Truflation by aging our real-time data by 45 days and making it worse when predicting the BLS CPI releases. Do you agree with our macro theory of what happened to the markets today? Let us know in the comments below!
Today's market dump makes absolutely no sense. S&P 500 wiped out $1.5 trillion in value from today's high. Bitcoin dropped to $87,000. Crypto market cap is below $2.95T. And the craziest part? There wasn’t a single negative headline today. No policy surprise. No new recession warning. No tariffs or bad earnings. Even NVIDIA, which makes 8% of the entire S&P 500, posted a bullish earnings report yesterday and now the entire pump has been retraced. Nothing that explains a sell off of this scale.
