Where does the money in futures contracts ultimately go?
This is a question well worth asking.
Because you’ll notice a strange phenomenon: almost everyone around you is losing money, but the “market” doesn’t seem to have made anyone any money either—so where does it all go?
The answer: It hasn’t disappeared; it’s being systematically drained. Futures trading isn’t a zero-sum game at all—it’s negative-sum.
First stop: Fees.
Every time you open or close a position, you pay. If you make 5 trades a day and 100 trades a month, fees alone can eat up several percent of your principal. High-frequency

Just stating a fact:

Huang Le, Alice Huang, purchased $4.8 billion worth of high-end computing chips from NVIDIA in just 8 months, with an initial estimate putting their computing power as high as 475k PFLOPS—equivalent to 40 Varyag aircraft carriers. Her contribution far surpasses that of Xu Zengping, the patriotic businessman who bought the Varyag back then. Before liberation, Ho Ying-tung risked his life to provide supplies in support; the chips Alice Huang bought today are equivalent to 32 times Ho Ying-tung's contribution. The computing power she provided is equivalent to 5 DeepSeeks and 3 Baidus. When the de

When should you post on LinkedIn?
Most "best time to post" charts land in the same place: weekday mornings, during working hours.
The part people miss: it's your audience's morning that counts, not yours.
1. Post on their clock
Aim for 9 to 11 AM where your audience lives. A few you'll use this month:
→ India to US East: 7:30 PM IST
→ India to UK: 2:30 PM IST
→ UK to US East: 2 PM GMT
→ UAE to UK: 1 PM in the UAE
→ Singapore to India: 11:30 AM in Singapore
(November times. The US and UK clocks went back a week ago, so last month's slots are off by an hour.)

US October CPI: Will Bitcoin, U.S. Stocks or Gold Move First? My Complete Market Outlook

The October U.S. CPI report is approaching, and in my view, this is one of the most important short-term catalysts for financial markets. I am not looking at inflation as just another economic number. I believe this report could change expectations about Federal Reserve policy, influence the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields, and create a major reaction across Bitcoin, technology stocks, and gold.

The release is scheduled for November 10 at 21:30 UTC+8. The market is watchi

The midterm elections have just passed, and crypto is taking the first hit?
Bitcoin fell more than 2% at one point in Sunday evening trading to $73,708, hitting its lowest level since August.
Ethereum fared worse, falling about 5% over the same period to $2,223, also returning to its lowest level since August.
Bitcoin and Ethereum both hit their lowest levels since August, with the declines showing broad pressure on the crypto market.
Reuters attributed the slump to investor fears that a Democrat-controlled Congress could tighten crypto regulation.
Note, this is the market reacting to fear, no

**Even Saylor isn't in the best mood today. Bitcoin fell below his average purchase price.**

As of November 9, BTC dropped to $73,477. Strategy's average purchase price for Bitcoin is $75,451.

At that low, its reserve of 849,327 BTC showed an unrealized loss of approximately $1.46 billion. This is a paper loss, not a realized one: the company did not sell these coins because of the price drop.

And this is happening against the backdrop of another unpleasant signal: last week, U.S. spot Bitcoin ETFs lost about $1.28 billion, while more than $1 billion in positions were forcibly closed in the

NVDA FUTURES TRADING CARNIVAL: FIRST-TRADE REWARDS AND A PRIZE POOL OF UP TO 8,000 USDT
A common myth about trading campaigns is that only experienced traders or people with large accounts can find an opportunity worth exploring. The reality is that campaign rewards and trading decisions are two different things. Understanding the rules, knowing the risks, and choosing the right approach matter far more than rushing into a trade.

Gate has introduced the NVDA Futures Trading Carnival, featuring first-trade rewards and a total prize pool of up to 8,000 USDT. This ca

Bitcoin in danger? If U.S. CPI comes in hotter than expected, BTC bulls could be in for another roller coaster!

Bitcoin investors may want to cut back on a couple of cups of coffee tonight.
The U.S. October CPI is due out soon, and this economic data could directly affect market expectations for the Fed’s December rate policy.
If inflation comes in hotter than expected, markets may quickly ramp up bets on rate hikes. A stronger dollar and rising Treasury yields could fuel expectations of tighter liquidity—clearly bad news for a high-volatility risk asset like Bitcoin.
The reason is simple: th

Wow $ETH is at $50,000 now

Let’s Talk Bitcoin

$BTC Last week’s close fell back below the 50-week moving average, breaking the structure that had held above it for seven consecutive weeks

I think this signal is still worth paying attention to:

After all, since rebounding from the late-June low, the market has been trying to confirm that the bear market is over, and reclaiming the 50-week moving average was one important piece of evidence

Now that the price is back below the moving average, it at least means the previous recovery expectations need to be reassessed

Looking at the short term, BTC has pulled back to aro
