Why Can Stablecoins Peg to $1? Where Are the Risks If They Depeg?

In the cryptocurrency market, many people treat stablecoins as digital versions of the U.S. dollar.

For example, USDT and USDC typically target a price of $1. Traders can use them to denominate, transfer, and trade assets, or temporarily hold funds.

But there is a question worth considering carefully:

Why can stablecoins stay close to $1? If the market suddenly loses confidence, can they still remain stable?

The key to understanding stablecoins is not just their names, but the mechanisms and assets backing them, as well as

Friends, as we try to keep our finger on the pulse of the market, we're going through a very critical juncture this week, with both macroeconomic data and rumors from the technology world simultaneously on the table. In today's article, let's calmly discuss three main topics that could directly affect all of our portfolios: the US Producer Price Index (PPI), jobless claims, and the rumors of a possible leadership change at Nvidia.

First, let's start with the October Producer Price Index (PPI) data from the US. As you know, the PPI, the top link in the inflation chain, reflects the costs of pr

Why can frequent trading actually make your account smaller and smaller?

In BTC trading, many people watch the market every day, afraid of missing any rise or fall. When the price rises, they want to go long; when it falls, they want to go short; when they see an indicator signal, they can't help opening a position. They trade more than a dozen times a day, which looks like a lot of effort, but when they look back at the end of the month, their account balance may have shrunk.

So where exactly is the problem?

First, trading costs keep adding up. Every time you open and close a position, you

$LIT is showing promising recovery signs after a sharp correction.

Currently trading at $3.2965, up 1.11%, with buyers stepping in after a bounce from the $3.1901 low.

The 15-minute chart shows improving momentum and a gradual recovery structure.

Key levels to watch:
Support: $3.24
Resistance: $3.32
Next target: $3.35

A strong breakout above resistance could bring further upside, while holding support remains important for bulls.

DYOR: Why can you still make the wrong judgment after reading a lot of information?

In the cryptocurrency market, DYOR (Do Your Own Research) is a frequently mentioned term.

When someone recommends a project, you might read its white paper, browse social media, study the token price, and even refer to the opinions of well-known bloggers. But the problem is that getting more information does not necessarily mean you are closer to the truth.

Effective research is not about collecting as many opinions as possible, but about developing a method to verify information, identify risks, and revise

What Is a White Paper? How to Read and Evaluate a Crypto Project Properly?

In the cryptocurrency market, we often see projects release a document called a Whitepaper. It usually introduces the project's vision, technical solution, token mechanisms, and future development plans.

For people new to Web3, a white paper may look very technical, full of jargon, economic models, and roadmaps. But there is an important question to consider:

Does a highly professional-looking white paper really mean that the project is trustworthy?

Not necessarily.

Bitcoin’s largest liquidation cluster is located around $60,000.

These are long positions opened near the bottom, and since prices surged in August, the market has yet to test their entry points.

Patient buyers often find opportunities in forced selling, and a sweep down to $60,000 would create plenty of them.

What Is Token Approval? Why Can a Single Signature Put Your Assets at Long-Term Risk?

In the DeFi world, you may just want to swap tokens once, provide liquidity once, or use a new decentralized application.

During the process, your wallet may ask you to confirm an approval transaction.

Many people see a familiar token name and what looks like a normal operation, and click confirm right away. But the questions that really matter are: Who are you authorizing? How many tokens can they use? Will this permission remain in effect after the transaction is complete?

Long-Term Investing or Short-Term Trading in BTC: Which Is Better for You?

In the BTC market, some choose to hold long term and wait for growth driven by market cycles; others study candlestick charts every day, looking for profit opportunities through short-term trading. Both approaches have their supporters, but which one is better suited to ordinary traders?

The answer is not which approach is guaranteed to make more money, but which one better matches your financial situation, available time and energy, and risk tolerance.

When BTC Suddenly Plunges, Should You Cut Your Losses, Wait and See, or Wait for a Rebound?

In BTC trading, a sudden plunge is often the moment when it’s easiest to lose your judgment. Prices fall rapidly, unrealized losses in your account keep growing, and some people choose to cut their losses immediately, while others think it’s just a brief shakeout. Still others keep waiting for a rebound, hoping the price will return to their entry point.

But what should you do when faced with a sudden plunge?

First, assess the reason for the decline. A BTC plunge could be triggered by macroeconomic n
