Not All Mining Pools Deliver the Same Experience
Before pointing your hashrate toward a pool, look beyond the advertised rewards.
Fee Structure: Understand how fees affect your actual earnings.
Payout Rules: Make sure the minimum payout fits your mining capacity and expectations.
Connection Quality: Lower latency helps reduce stale shares and wasted work.
Proof Over Promises: Check payout history, pool statistics, and transparent reward policies.
The smartest miners don’t choose blindly they compare, verify, and then commit.

10.25 Jinying Gold Weekly Outlook: Gold prices lose the 4,000 level! Bears take full control; sell rallies with the trend!
Spot gold fell steadily from this week's high of 4,198, weakening in stages and successively breaking through multiple support levels. The decline accelerated at the end of the week, breaking below the 4,000 mark and reaching a low of 3,975, its lowest level in this phase. It is currently consolidating weakly around 3,997, with bears fully in control of the market.
On the news front, expectations for Fed rate cuts continue to cool, while rising Treasury yields and a strong

AI Spending Is Through the Roof! For Tech Giants, the Next Earnings Test Is Payback, Not Growth
Today’s U.S. tech giants look like a bunch of wealthy people charging into the future with credit cards: they need to buy servers, build data centers, stockpile chips, and poach AI talent with hefty salaries.
The more aggressively they spend, the more excited investors get? Not so fast—the bill will come due eventually.
In late October 2026, markets are closely watching earnings from tech giants such as Microsoft, Alphabet, and Amazon, as well as their AI capital spending plans. The market estimates

With $1.39 million in unrealized gains and returns soaring to 145%, he still calmly reduced his position to lock in profits—this short trade is worth breaking down frame by frame.
First, the results: $ZE a 10x full-position short, opened at an average price of 1372 near the top, as the market plunged all the way to 1173. Unrealized returns reached 145.16%, with $1.39 million in paper profits. Even more impressive was the defense: backed by $820,000 in margin, his estimated liquidation price was still 2440, leaving such a wide buffer that even market manipulators had no opening to exploit.

Local LLMs can finally speak, but Chinese users shouldn’t get excited just yet!
Ollama announced support for text-to-speech on October 24, with Gradium’s Phonon as its first model.
One command, ollama run phonon, is all it takes to generate speech; use --voice to pick a voice, and redirect the output to save it directly as a WAV.
It supports the /v1/audio/speech endpoint and streaming output, defaults to 24kHz mono WAV, and can also output raw 16-bit PCM.
But for now, it only runs on Apple Silicon Macs and requires Ollama 0.40.11 or later; Windows and Linux users will have to wait.

$FIL ’s funding rate has turned positive—is this a long trap or crowded shorts?
The answer leans toward the latter—the price is falling while the funding rate is positive, indicating that longs are still paying to hold positions, while the price is pinned below MA5 and MA20. This structure often means longs are being gradually worn down rather than shorts being squeezed.
From a trading perspective, FIL is currently at 0.9138, down 2.54% over 24h. MA5=0.91504 has fallen below MA20=0.9263, with the moving averages bearishly aligned; RSI=36.4 is nearing the weak zone but is not yet oversold, and

$CAP The Rally Is Strong — But Is It Sustainable?
CAP gained 43.62% in 24 hours, with $75.71M in trading volume. But reported liquidity of $1.33M raises an important question about volatility and execution risk.
Price momentum is only one side of the story. If price rises while protocol TVL declines, the divergence deserves attention. High volume alone doesn’t prove sustained buying demand.
The next test is whether buyers maintain momentum while protocol activity stabilizes.
Is $CAP building lasting strength, or moving ahead of its fundamentals?

Treasury will also buy back $6 Billion of its own debt to bring yields down

The most unusual detail in today's market is that $TRX funding rate is -0.0167%: the price is down just 0.21% over 24h, yet shorts are willing to keep paying to hold their positions. The current price of 0.329 is just above the lower Bollinger Band at 0.328783, with a range of only 0.58% across 30 candles. MA5 and MA20 are almost converged, indicating a standoff between bulls and bears amid low volatility rather than a one-way market. RSI at 44.6 is weak but not oversold, and the MACD histogram is positive. With the price moving sideways while shorts pay, a short squeeze could easily trigger

Review of Yesterday’s Trading Plan (October 24)
Short setup: The direction and levels were exactly right. Yesterday’s plan was to short after a rebound was rejected in the 81,000–81,200 area, with a stop-loss at 81,500 and targets at 80,000/79,500. In the actual price action, BTC reached a high near 81,846 and then turned lower, subsequently breaking below the 80,000 level and reaching a low of $79,277. The bearish direction played out exactly.
Long setup: Not triggered. The condition for going long after support held in the 80,000–80,200 area was not met, as no valid bottoming candle formed w
