Looking at Ethereum’s current market, it’s actually exactly like shopping at a farmers’ market. ETH gets 2980 new units every day, just like fresh goods arriving at the market daily. There used to be a big buyer coming every week to sweep up most of the goods, naturally supporting prices. But two days ago, it announced that it would stop after buying 5% of the total supply—that’s a hard rule. It has already accumulated 4.9%, so at this pace, it will stop buying in six or seven weeks at most. More troubling is that the institutions following its lead have also been pulling out one after another recently, withdrawing 640 million. On one side, supply keeps coming in; on the other, the biggest buyer says it’s leaving, and the followers are running too. What can support the price under these circumstances? BTC and ETH have been plunging recently, with $970 million liquidated in 24 hours—all of it forced liquidations of people chasing the highs. Who is actually providing real money to buy the dip will always matter more than staring at the red and green lines on the screen. #BTC #以太坊 $BTC $ETH

“I bought a hardware wallet to protect my crypto.” Sometimes the weakest link appears even before the first transfer.Ledger is investigating reports of cryptocurrency theft from users who purchased devices through the CryptoBilis reseller in Southeast Asia. According to one blockchain researcher’s estimate, losses may exceed $86 million. Important: this amount has not yet been independently confirmed, and the exact number of victims is unknown.Ledger asked the seller to suspend sales and deliveries. For customers who purchased devices from this reseller within the past 90 days, the company recommended not setting up devices that had not yet been used, while those who had already started using them were advised to consider transferring their assets to a new device with a new seed phrase.The main lesson here is unpleasant: a hardware wallet protects keys, but does not by itself guarantee security if the device or supply chain has been compromised. You can avoid suspicious links for years, verify addresses, and keep your seed phrase secret. Then you may discover that trusting the device also requires verification. Self-custody is not simply buying a wallet and forgetting about security. It means taking responsibility for the entire chain: from purchase to setup and use.#CryptoSecurity #BTC #ETH #RisingStarLaunch
