The recent market movements have indeed been quite discouraging. I didn't feel like monitoring the charts all morning, and it wasn't until the evening that I gathered the courage to open the candlestick chart. As a result, BAGS experienced a full-scale pullback, and the overall profit in my account also shrank significantly. Some positions even turned negative, and that feeling is really uncomfortable.
However, this also provided a good opportunity to make a portfolio adjustment. Almost all BAGS-related holdings were sold off, and the freed-up funds were directly reinvested into SOL. Why do th

Things just got real in the trade department. Trump's making waves again—this time he's throwing around the phrase "world peace is at stake" while pushing hard on Greenland as a potential U.S. acquisition. But here's the kicker: he's not shy about the leverage. Tariffs on the UK and other European nations are now on the table as a negotiating tactic. The ultimatum is pretty clear—either work out a deal to sell Greenland, or face trade penalties. It's the kind of geopolitical posturing that makes market watchers nervous, especially when you're dealing with tariff threats that could ripple throu

Just spotted this Solana token gaining traction on Pump.fun. Here's what the chart is showing:
The buying pressure over the last 24 hours hit $18,720, while sell volume came in at $10,026. That's a solid buy/sell ratio worth monitoring. Current market cap sits at $36,581, though liquidity is sitting at zero right now—something to keep an eye on if this gains more momentum.
The token contract address is 3wY5J81qTWnpCePC9afgr8KKxRXQH7t1QxHGx3eQpump on Solana. If you're tracking emerging plays on Solana, this one's showing some interesting volume dynamics. Just remember to always do your own rese

Billionaire Lifestyle Inflation Hits Peak In 2025—And It's Not What You'd Expect
Think billionaires are riding high on policy tailwinds? Think again. Despite favorable economic conditions last year, the ultra-wealthy found themselves shelling out more cash than ever for luxury goods and services.
From rare racehorses to private aircraft to premium caviar—everything came with a steeper price tag in 2025. The irony? Even with supportive policies, inflation pressures have crept into every corner of the ultra-luxury market.
It's a reminder that when asset prices surge and capital flows abundantly,

Do you remember that DeFi feast?
Looking back at the fierce DEX competition during DeFi Summer — Uniswap, Balancer, Curve each showcased their strengths, along with countless Uniswap fork projects flooding in. The entire race was like an arms race.
And now? The Perps market is playing out a similar story.
What's the difference? Back then, DEXs attracted users through liquidity and trading pairs. Today, the competition in the Perps ecosystem has upgraded to the level of ecosystem integration. More and more wallet projects are choosing to connect to innovative Perps exchanges like Hyperliquid. T

Spotted a volume spike on $SCS trading activity 🚀
Solana chain token update:
24H Buy Volume: $70,803
24H Sell Volume: $61,486
Liquidity: $0
Market Cap: $40,079
Buying pressure showing stronger momentum compared to selling activity. The asymmetry in buy/sell volumes suggests potential trader interest building up. Monitor the price action closely as these dynamics can shift quickly in the current market environment.

Since ChatGPT launched in late 2022, something wild has happened in the job market. The average job seeker is now submitting 239% more applications than before—basically flooding the system. Recruiters? They're drowning. Traditional hiring workflows can't scale fast enough to handle this influx, and it's forcing the entire recruitment ecosystem to rethink how they filter candidates and process applications. The AI boom has democratized access to better cover letters, optimized resumes, and smarter job search strategies, which sounds good on paper. But in practice, it's created massive noise. F

Pessimism spreading across developed economies isn't just a temporary mood swing—it's starting to lock in like a feedback loop. When negative sentiment hardens, it warps how businesses and investors behave, which then feeds back into the economy itself.
Here's the kicker: entrenched economic gloom tends to work in three distinct ways. First, it saps consumer confidence, which means spending dries up—that's growth starved of fuel. Second, companies tighten their belts, holding back on capital investments and hiring, which compounds the slowdown. Third, financial markets react to the uncertainty

Honestly, there are indeed too many perpetual contract platforms nowadays. But on the other hand, the number of active trading users is relatively fixed, so each platform is competing for that small pool of traffic. In this situation, you can either choose the leading platforms to compete for capital and stability, or find those platforms with clear differentiated advantages.
The platforms I’ve been using recently are generally chosen based on the following criteria:
**Leading Derivatives Exchanges**: Deep liquidity, low slippage, suitable for large trades. The downside is that fees are not ch

Translating the classic book "Yan Tie Lun," there's a phrase that has been echoing in my mind: "Wealth comes from strategy and calculation, not from hard labor; profit depends on the situation, not on forceful plowing."
It's actually quite straightforward—if you want to become rich, the key isn't to work yourself to exhaustion, but to choose the right methods and strategies to make money.
Many people spend their entire lives exerting effort, yet still end up with nothing. Why? Because they chose the wrong track. World champions don't appear out of nowhere; they are born from the best tracks. S

Liquidity depth, trading costs, and application interoperability have become key factors for success. The launch of Uniswap on X Layer marks a significant step forward in building institutional-grade blockchain infrastructure. What’s the next focus? Expanding the coverage of xAssets to enable these cross-chain assets to circulate within more leading DApps. The benefits of this are obvious—users gain more choices, DEX liquidity is fully utilized, and all parties in the ecosystem can benefit. As more DeFi applications are integrated, the potential for the X Layer ecosystem is gradually unfolding

Over a quarter of US government debt—26% to be exact—hits maturity by 2027. That's a ticking clock.
The Treasury faces a liquidity squeeze. Banks are sitting on dried-up reserves. The Federal Reserve is boxed in: hike rates further and risk a debt spiral, or pivot toward stimulus.
Historically, when the system dries up like this, there's only one playbook—inject liquidity. Rate cuts are coming. Quantitative easing is coming. The market hasn't fully priced this in yet.
What matters for traders: this pivot could happen faster than consensus expects. Positioning ahead of policy shifts is where th

Major shake-up at Monzo as the digital bank navigates investor concerns. Following significant pushback from stakeholders, the company has decided to expand the responsibilities of outgoing CEO TS Anil rather than proceed with a straightforward transition. This move reflects the complexities of leadership succession in fast-growing fintech firms, where investor confidence plays a critical role. The decision highlights how market pressures can reshape organizational decisions, even at the executive level.

Many traders are asking the same question— is it easier to double your money by chasing hot new coins, or is choosing coins with explosive popularity more likely to succeed? On the surface, it seems to be a contest between new coins and old coins, but a closer look reveals that the market's true logic is far more complex.
Many say that trading cryptocurrencies should focus on new coins and avoid old ones. That sounds correct at first glance, but it's only a superficial understanding. The deeper truth is quite simple—what traders truly pursue are coins with light market caps, relatively loose l

Recently, on-chain earnings haven't been very ideal, but seeing everyone's account growth is indeed quite reassuring.
My personal US stock account has performed average recently; the returns haven't experienced explosive growth like Web3, but the advantage is strong stability. Currently, the gains are only a few tens of thousands of yuan, honestly, they are not as quick as a wave of meme coins.
However, on second thought, I still have some expectations for 2026 — planning to make the combined returns of the US stocks, Hong Kong stocks, and A-shares sectors all surpass 50%. This goal sounds a b

Market makers are stacking coins again, with six consecutive buys last night, totaling about 40 BNB, and unrealized gains have already reached $50,000.
Looking at this pace, I recall the #我踏马来了这个币有可能冲击现货交易对。去年#pnut rally vividly; market makers did the same back then. But this time is a bit different — this address is focused solely on a specific coin, clearly prepared in advance.
The actions of big players often hint at market direction. Keeping an eye on such addresses' movements might help us catch the next opportunity early.

Recently experienced the stablecoin financial management feature in the wallet, which is indeed quite friendly for beginners. The 10% APY looks good, and the key point is that new users have a 5000U interest rate increase quota to use, which means initial returns will be more substantial. Several friends around me are also playing, and some even used their family members' quotas as well 😂.
In addition to stablecoin financial management, the wallet's earning center also frequently has interesting activities. The task setup is not too complicated, mainly involving social interactions and on-cha

A well-known American fast-food chain recently announced a major move: investing $10 million in Bitcoin as an important part of the company's long-term asset reserve. Interestingly, they named this approach the "Self-Enhancement System." The logic is straightforward: by improving store sales performance and food quality, while continuously accumulating Bitcoin assets, a mutually reinforcing closed loop is formed across three dimensions. This approach reflects the growing trend of traditional business giants beginning to incorporate Bitcoin into their financial strategies. It's not just an inno
