What Are Stablecoins, and Why Are They Important Infrastructure for the Cryptocurrency Market?
In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin and Ethereum prices can fluctuate significantly, while stablecoins are typically pegged to fiat currencies such as the US dollar, providing a relatively stable unit of account for trading, payments, and on-chain financial activities.
First, why are stablecoins important?
When investors need to temporarily reduce the impact of price volatility, they can consider converting their assets into stablecoins. However, stablecoins are not the same as bank deposits, and t

An AI agent completing a task is impressive.
But what happens when that same agent gets paid to do a job and delivers something completely wrong?
That's the part of the AI agent economy I've been looking into.
Most people focus on what agents can do. I'm more interested in what makes them reliable enough to hire.
This is where @termix_ai and its AACP protocol caught my attention.
On an agent can have its own onchain identity, offer services, accept jobs and build a reputation tied to its work.
But the interesting part happens after someone places an order.

At $2,315, could you bring yourself to sell ETH?
ETF outflows hit $1 billion in a month, it’s the worst October in eight years, and everyone is saying “ETH is over”—but BitMine quietly bought another 10k ETH, bringing its holdings close to 5% of circulating supply. At $2,315, you’re afraid of selling at the bottom and missing a rebound, but also afraid of riding it out until it goes to zero. What exactly are you waiting for?
First, the surface picture: the drop has been brutal, but some are still buying.

Gate lets you trade gold on weekends too! Don't get carried away—here are some pitfalls behind 7×23-hour trading
Seeing that gold can now be traded on weekends, some people may think: Great, now I can catch every market move!
The second thought is usually: If I can catch every market move, why am I not rich yet?
Gate has launched 7×23-hour trading for $XAUUSD gold/USD CFDs, with beta testing open to select customers. This change does add flexibility, but investors should dial down the excitement before taking a look at the product rules.

Don’t rush to buy the dip just because SOL is down. You think you’re getting a bargain, but you could be catching tokens dumped by whales!
Over the past 3 days, whales have transferred 480,000 SOL, with more than $17 million flowing into exchanges. Selling pressure is not something to ignore.
Funds have been flowing out continuously, making 98.5 a key line of defense. If it breaks, a cascade of liquidations could be triggered, pushing the price down further to 96 or even 95.

Why focus on a recovery first
· Arm’s valuation is already high: In its latest fiscal quarter, revenue was $1.241 billion and net income was $223 million, with a forward P/E of around 290x. Even after the sharp rally, its valuation remains elevated and needs sustained earnings delivery to support it.

$Q Volume continues to contract as prices keep falling—the chance for trapped long positions to break even is here!
The price surged 330% in less than a day, and anyone who entered anywhere near the bottom made a killing. Most of you may have gone short along the way and ended up trapped halfway up. The chance to get out is finally here. That’s how altcoins are: market makers won’t pass up a chance to trap anyone blindly trying to pick tops and bottoms. Only by following the trend can you profit steadily and stay in control. This pullback has already turned into a one-way move.

Watch out for a rug pull! Is Hynix's 5% surge actually a “death knell”? The big players are playing rough!
“Candlesticks can be drawn, but money doesn’t lie!” Folks, Hynix’s 1-hour chart surged to 1044 and then lost steam. Don’t be fooled by the green on the surface: funds saw a net outflow of $268 million in one hour—that’s a blatant dump at the highs!

When an AI company goes public, a curious phenomenon often emerges: the models onstage can do everything, while the profits in the financial statements may not be much to write home about.
If Anthropic really moves ahead with an IPO, the market will not only focus on how powerful Claude is and how many customers it has, but will also press a painful question: can the company actually make money?

Crypto security isn’t just about protecting our assets today. It’s also about preparing for threats that could emerge tomorrow.
That’s one reason I find @Starknet’s approach to account flexibility interesting, especially with quantum computing advancing.
Think about how wallets work. We rely on cryptographic signatures to approve transactions, but what happens if the methods we use today eventually become vulnerable?
Starknet’s programmable accounts offer an interesting path forward.
Instead of locking every account into one signature scheme, developers can build support for different authoriz
