S0 TIGHT (62%): contracting reserves, mixed/higher funding costs, tentative ETF inflows, shrinking stablecoin pool and unconfirmed healthy BTC feedback. No state transition.

Research summary; this is not the complete original report.

English overview only; the complete original report is in Chinese above, not translated in full. Full report: https://argusx.fun/research/liquidity/2026-10-29/daily/

State: S0 TIGHT (62% confidence); drivers: MACRO + FLOW. Bank reserves contracted in the last available Fed weekly data, while the Fed maintained its 3.75%–4.00% target and signalled inflation concerns. Two finalized US spot Bitcoin ETF sessions showed positive flows, but overall stablecoin supply still contracted. Derivatives structure and independently confirmed spot follow-through are insufficient for an S1 upgrade. Feedback gain: DECAYING; policy reaction pressure: APPROACHING, not AT-THRESHOLD. The thesis would change upon sustained positive spot flows and improving liquidity/financial conditions; a liquidation cascade requires independent OI, liquidation and real-selling confirmation.

Verifiable data excerpts used for structured observations: As of Oct 21, weekly-average bank reserves were USD 2.962607 trillion and TGA was USD 0.952002 trillion. Oct 28 nominal Treasury yields: 2Y 4.67%, 3Y 4.80%, 10Y 5.05%, 30Y 5.37%. Oct 28 10-year real Treasury yield: 2.67%. Oct 27 US spot BTC ETF net inflows: USD 176.0 million. Oct 28 stablecoin supply: USD 299.208 billion, 7-day change -0.67%.
