💢 Why wasn’t the ecosystem summit held before the V28 upgrade process began⁉️
Looking back at the entire upgrade journey from Protocol v19 to v28 on Stellar Core/Soroban, the waiting period truly feels endless.
However, from a technical and infrastructure strategy perspective, there are several fundamental reasons why the core team is organizing the ecosystem summit only now (late 2026), rather than earlier:
1. “You can’t build a house before laying the foundation” (SOROBAN & SMART CONTRACTS)
🔹 Stages V19–V21: At the time, Pi Network mainly handled basic transfer transactions. The infrastruc

$XRP We're already at the bottom here. The market makers won't give retail traders cheap tokens; everyone's waiting for lower prices. If you don't buy now, you won't buy later! If you're not in a position yet, I recommend jumping in at this level—don't hesitate! Targets: 1.5, 1.8, 2! More than 3x in the long term! Hurry and build your long positions!

The long-term oil short was stopped out. What’s next?
I woke up to Brent crude having surged to $110. The long-term crude oil short I’d been telling everyone to enter around $105 was also stopped out in spectacular fashion😂. This rally isn’t simply the result of a supply-demand gap; it’s being driven by a combination of geopolitical risks, shipping disruptions, and tight inventories. If oil prices stay above $100, high-valuation U.S. tech stocks and crypto assets will remain under pressure. As for crude oil, I, Little God of Wealth, remain bearish over the long term. The reaso

Banks and institutions are moving on-chain
JPMorgan, BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, Citi, Standard Chartered, Visa, Nasdaq, and others are building on public rails.
And #PiNetwork is building compliant on-chain financial infrastructure, lowering the barriers to participation for ordinary people and the technical barriers for developers, while enabling agent payments for AI AGENTs.
The old guard is not fighting tokenization, but slowly and steadily integrating into it.
All that's left is for the winds to shift!

Insiders are watching SYSLA break a quiet range before the next leg up.

Trade Plan:
Entry: 353.23 – 354.45
SL: 346.22
TP1: 359.55
TP2: 363.36
TP3: 369.07

Why this setup?
Why now? The daily trend is a range, meaning the market has been coiling without a clear edge until this moment. The 1h price sits at 353.84, which is the exact entry reference, confirming we are already at the trigger line. The 15m RSI of 51.05 shows the short-term momentum is balanced, so a push higher would not be overbought yet. The 1h ATR of 2.441199 tells us the recent volatility is tight, which

Everyone, $ZEC is reclaiming support after a sharp drop. Can buyers push it toward $1,225?

$AGT pumped +82%. My bot shorted at 0.68. TP2 hit. ✅️
Here's why the trade was called:
The derivatives data showed a classic trap.
• Funding: +0.1237% (Longs paying a premium)
• OI: +83.14% (The pump was purely leverage driven)
• L/S Global: 1.83 (retail is heavily long)
• Top Accounts: 0.47 (Smart money is short)
·• Taker Flow: 0.17 (Aggressive selling into the pump)
When funding is high, OI is going up, & retail is Long, the squeeze always ends the same way

Bitcoin $BTC put both longs and shorts through the wringer this week.
It was hovering around $84,000 at the start of the week, but CPI and PPI both came in above expectations, stoking inflation concerns and sending the price down to around $79,000, with the $80,000 level breaking directly. After the sell-off, however, it was quickly pulled back up, reclaiming around $81,000 over the weekend, for a weekly decline of approximately 2.8%.
The most interesting part was the price action around $80,000: bears repeatedly pushed the price down, but buyers stepped in every time; meanwhile, $84,000 abov

If you ranked leading exchanges by their products in the tech industry,
which one is most like Apple?
Which one is most like Nvidia?

The rankings are in no particular order.

🔎There was a very large outflow of Stablecoins from spot exchanges over the past couple of days. I didn’t share this with you because I didn’t want to cause unnecessary panic unless I could support my thought that it was merely a wallet reshuffle with clear evidence.
Thankfully, there was a large inflow into spot wallets today, and we understood that it was only a wallet change. To be honest, I was quite scared that a cash shortage would begin in the market if the funds didn’t flow back in, but thankfully, what I feared did not happen.

DeepSeek upgraded V4.1 Flash to version 1017 today.
The website, app, and API have all switched to the new model. Calls still use deepseek-flash, and pricing remains unchanged. The weights have been open-sourced under the MIT license and are available for direct download.
The main change this time is in “wish-driven programming.” Give it a simple request, such as “build a 3D scene of the Forbidden City,” “make a web-based racing game,” or “recreate Portal 2 in Godot,” and the model can plan and complete the entire project on its own. The official demo runs successfully in just a few rounds of

$CP I plan to open a long position when it drops to 0.007. The bottom has basically taken shape, with just another slight drop to come. Those who need to exit will exit, and the market makers should pump it. Retail investors basically don't have many coins left. I'm still looking at November; don't make any moves in October. Set the stop-loss at 0.005 when the time comes. ‌

October ranks first among all months for Bitcoin’s median return at +12.61% over 2010-2025. For comparison, February returned a median of +12.19%, July +9.02% and November +8.53%.
Over those 16 years, Bitcoin finished October higher 11 times, or 69% of the time. The average return was +26.43%.
