DashTape reports Analyst Killa stated on platform X that, based on historical performance, when BTC begins to form a bottom and slowly trends upward, it often represents a favorable accumulation phase for altcoins. During the previous cycle, as BTC rose from $16,000 to $74,000, a large number of altcoins recorded gains of 300%–500%. However, as BTC continued to strengthen thereafter and its market dominance increased, many altcoins began to face downward pressure. Killa believes that if BTC has already formed its bottom this cycle, some altcoins may have also established cyclical lows, prompting a recent resumption of selective altcoin positioning. His SOL position, bought at $76, is currently up approximately 50%. The ASTER long position shared recently has a target of at least 50% to 100% upside. Additionally, the HYPE spot or long position established earlier at $51.55 has since risen roughly 70%.

DashTape reports supply chain sources revealed that due to rising overall costs, Intel (INTC.O) has been gradually increasing prices on PC CPUs over the past year, with another 10% increase tentatively scheduled for early October. Despite an anticipated slight decline in the PC end-market by 2027, Intel still chooses to raise CPU prices, underscoring that boosting gross margins is its primary goal, and the past practice of cutting prices to gain market share is no longer seen. Supply chain analysts suggest that if Intel sets low gross margins as a key threshold for product retention, some products will inevitably be phased out. Should these demands be released, it could give Arm-based players such as MediaTek and Qualcomm an opportunity to enter the market. Particularly in the IPC, edge computing, and IoT markets, Arm SoCs offer advantages in high integration and low power consumption. (Taiwan's DigiTimes)

DashTape Planet Daily News: Metaplanet CEO Simon Gerovich stated that he is a significant but non-controlling shareholder of MMXX's parent company, has not been involved in the company's trading decisions, and admitted that the company has not adequately explained the 10th Series Share Subscription Rights Incentive Plan and MMXX's organizational structure. The incentive plan was established in December 2022, with 20% of Metaplanet's fully diluted share capital set aside as the incentive pool. Since Metaplanet shifted to a Bitcoin treasury strategy, each new share issuance to purchase Bitcoin has diluted existing shareholders while expanding the subscription rights available to Gerovich. The company fixed the incentive pool at 319.464 million shares in August and set a 5-year lock-up period, but did not reduce the pool's size back to pre-Bitcoin-strategy levels. On August 28, Gerovich exercised 92,000 subscription rights and received 64 million new shares, bringing his total holdings to 79.5875 million shares, approximately 6.2% of the company's total share capital. Some shareholders are still demanding disclosure of MMXX's owners and the cancellation of the newly added 273 million share incentive allocation. Metaplanet's stock fell 7% on Monday and is down 43% year-to-date, while the Nikkei 225 index has risen 31% over the same period.
