The Almanak Points Season·Final Sprint Phase is now open! @almanak Stage 3 will officially start at 0:00 on October 23rd. This is not only a continuation of the Points Season, but also the last window period leading to the TGE (token generation event).

⚙️ Key Changes in the Stage
The old Pendle alUSD pool will expire and stop scoring on October 22.
The new Pendle alUSD pool (expiration date December 10) becomes the only scoring source;
SY-alUSD → increased to 1.5× multiplier;
YT-alUSD → Maintain 5× leverage (highest yield zone);
PT-alUSD → Stop scoring.

📊 Due to about 90% of the TVL of the old pool exiting the points system,
The liquidity left in the new pool will be distributed among the entire points pool.
This means that the earlier the migration and the more stable the position, the higher your points weight.

At the same time, the official will introduce a new leverage mechanism for the alUSD currency market in the third phase:
Use alUSD to collateralize loans → 1.5× multiplier;
Provide USDC liquidity to lend alUSD → 0.75× leverage.
This will further expand the ecological use cases of alUSD, allowing active funds to obtain more layered returns.

Each Almanak Point ≈ 1 Token (at TGE). TGE will take place this quarter, and points are no longer just numbers on the leaderboard but are your ticket into the @almanak Token economic system. Stage 3 = The points explosion period before TGE. Complete the migration before October 23, lock in the new Pendle alUSD pool, and seize the last high multiplier bonuses.

I looked at the Rainbow project and it feels like a new approach in the wallet space. From the tool attributes of MetaMask to Rainbow's "reward wallet", this transition is quite interesting.

Rainbow is essentially a non-custodial EVM wallet, focusing on mobile experience.
What are the core selling points? Earn Points by using the wallet, convert Points to tokens, forming a reward loop. I have seen this logic before, like the early Brave browser, where users earn BAT tokens by using it.
From a technical perspective, Rainbow has made several differentiations. Firstly, there is the UI aesthetics; the rainbow gradient color scheme is indeed more visually appealing than the engineer aesthetic of MetaMask. Secondly, there is the level of integration, with built-in DEX, cross-chain bridge, and perpetual trading all in one app. Finally, there is the points system, where every swap, bridge, and holding of tokens earns Points rewards.

On the data level, X has 109k followers and a monthly trading volume of 5.4M USD, which is considered medium-sized among wallet projects. It raised 21M USD, led by the 776 Fund, and the background is decent. TGE is scheduled for Q4, with a community airdrop of 3% of the supply, which is not a high ratio.

In terms of market positioning, Rainbow aims for the "fun onchain" concept. Traditional wallets are cold and uninviting; it wants to create a social wallet platform. This direction is somewhat similar to StepN in 2021, transforming utility tools into money-making games.

The risks are also obvious. First, there is the selling pressure before the TGE, as users may cash out and leave. Secondly, the competition is fierce; if MetaMask follows suit with a reward mechanism, the advantage will be lost. Furthermore, there is a reliance on the EVM ecosystem; if the Ethereum ecosystem cools down, the frequency of wallet usage will decrease.

My judgment is that Rainbow has caught a small trend: the socialization of tool products. But whether it can grow large depends on user retention after the TGE. The points system is a double-edged sword; while it attracts users, it can also easily cultivate a mentality of exploiting benefits.

In the short term, the airdrop expectations in Q4 may bring a wave of excitement. In the long term, we still need to return to the essence of the product; wallet experience and functional innovation are the real competitive advantages.

Plume announced a deep cooperation with Function, and FBTC officially became the official functional Bitcoin asset on @plumenetwork. This is not only an integration update but also a leap in the financial paradigm.

In the past, Bitcoin was regarded as "digital gold"—safe, scarce, but also dormant. Today, with the native integration of Plume, institutions can bring BTC into the real-world assets (RWA) ecosystem for collateral, lending, generating yield, and credit expansion, unlocking unprecedented liquidity within a compliance framework.

Function is establishing a new DeFi standard for BTC: in a secure, transparent, and composable manner, making BTC a "trustworthy yield-bearing asset" that not only stores value but also continuously creates value.

The collaboration between @plumenetwork and Function allows for "on-chain capital" and "institutional capital" to meet on the same track, laying a true financial infrastructure for the Real-World Bitcoin Economy.

👉 Bitcoin is no longer just a passive reserve, but an engine of productivity. Plume is making it all happen.

I checked the market dynamics, mainly:

The ecosystem has recently focused on mainnet optimization and community incentives:
The September technical update enhances scalability and AI storage security, and DefiLlama has been incorporated for tracking, showing progress in DeFi integration.

Galxe Starboard also unveiled the $0G reward mechanism this week, with Aura farming attracting content creators to participate, and Phase 2 airdrop expanded to Discord/Kaito users.

The price has fallen 28% from the September ATH of $4.88 to around $2.1, with a slight increase of 0.43% in the last 24 hours, and a cumulative drop of 38.5% over the past 30 days; the unlocking rate next month is only 0.87%, and the ITO launchpad is expected to go live in Q4.

It is expected that the market will be influenced by some positive dynamics, resulting in ( non-wide ).

While others are still comparing who has the cheaper storage, @irys_xyz has already changed tracks—they directly turn data into "dynamic assets." The uploaded data can execute logic by itself, distribute royalties, and control access permissions, as if every file has an AI brain.

This is not a replica of Arweave, nor is it a patch for Filecoin, but a truly programmable data chain. Irys integrates low-cost storage, verifiable computation, and AI coordination into a single network, supporting the execution of smart contracts for data embedding permissions, monetization, and access control. Its concept is simple yet revolutionary: data is code, and code is value.

The testnet has processed over 600 million transactions and 4 million active wallets, with a TPS as high as 100K, which is 6000 times faster than Filecoin and 20 times cheaper than Arweave. Behind this is a hybrid consensus (PoW + Staking) and the native execution architecture of IrysVM, where AI models and datasets can interact and generate revenue automatically.

The deep collaboration with @arbitrum has further accelerated the implementation of programmable data. Irys provides a permanent, low-cost data layer, while Arbitrum offers an efficient execution layer. The combination of the two enables AI, DeFi, gaming, and DePIN projects to build trustless on-chain data economies.

Today, over 300 projects have adopted Irys, from @Mira_Network to @GoKiteAI, all bringing data to life. AI models are no longer isolated, smart contracts are no longer slowed down by storage, and developers are no longer constrained by fragmented architecture.

@irys_xyz is reshaping the underlying logic of Web3 - transforming data from static assets into dynamic economic units.
On this chain, data is not only stored; it begins to produce, collaborate, and create value.

💡In the future on-chain economy, it's no longer about "whose contract is smarter," but rather "whose data is more alive." — Irys, allowing every piece of data to become an intelligent agent.

Talk about the market
The day before yesterday, at the price of 107500 and 3920, a systematic long signal appeared for the first time since the big drop on the 11th.
The next day, a significant surge near 111700 and 4060 occurred.
From the market and data perspective, this rebound looks more like a correction; the spot market has not actively followed, and today it has shown signs of weakening.
The overall situation should be an expansion of the consolidation range. During the day today, we should first pay attention to probing the bottom to find opportunities for low absorption in the fluctuations.
$BTC Focus on the demand for low absorption in the range of 108.9-107.9K. If there is a rebound to 110.6-111.3K, consider a rebound short.
$ETH Pay attention to the buying opportunities in the 3880-3840 range, consider shorting in the 4010-4040 range during the rebound.
The above is today's real-time trading plan and perspective.

[Hotspot Capture Wind Shadow Value Determines the Universe]

In fact, 99% of trending news is noise. What is truly useful information?

Principles of economics, value investment logic, underlying logic of Bitcoin. These are the core.

After reading a lot of books, you will know which people are truly skilled and which so-called experts are actually dangerous.

Too many people in the market chase trends and news. However, they do not understand the fundamentals.

Information is not the same as news. News is for the public, while information is for professionals.

The logic of accumulating coins is actually very simple: find a track that you can understand, and then enter the market when others are in panic.

But most people cannot do this because they treat speculation as investment and noise as signal.

🔥 Current Market Guide (2025 Easy Profit Version )

BTC: The price rose quite well during the day yesterday, exceeding 110,000 again. I've been mentioning dollar-cost averaging and buying the dip all last week. Those who executed it are definitely making money now. For those who haven't jumped on the train yet, just wait a bit longer.

Some NB: The aftereffects have come, while Bitcoin surges, this stuff is not rising but falling. The meme hype on BSC comes quickly and leaves quickly, patiently waiting for the next TGE rise, a good opportunity to reduce positions.

ETH: Following the fluctuations of Bitcoin, it is weaker than Bitcoin, but has now surpassed the 4000 mark. Currently, there are 2.26 million Ethereum queued for staking, so please be patient and ensure to clear your position in November!

Some important news from yesterday:

1. Evernorth, supported by Ripple, plans to go public in the United States and raise over $1 billion to accumulate XRP tokens.

2. The Ethereum treasury company BitMine increased its holdings by approximately 203,800 ETH last week, bringing the total Ethereum holdings to 3.236 million.

3. Bitcoin spot ETF saw a net outflow of $1.23 billion last week, marking the second highest in history.

Now returning to today's daily BTC technical analysis, from the K-line perspective, the 1-hour level is in decline, the 4-hour level is rising, the 12-hour level is rising, and the daily level is in decline, with an intraday resistance at 113500 and a support level at 107000 US dollars.

Gold bounced strongly from key support after forming a double top at resistance.

Buyers stepped in fast, and price now targets $4,450–$4,500.

Support is holding well if momentum continues, we could see a fresh gold rally that might also lift Bitcoin and risk assets.

In the past few days, the mainstream asset market has warmed up, driving overall market sentiment to rise, and the brothers who go long are probably making a killing! For those trading Futures on Gate, there are even hidden benefits in this wave, let me explain it to you in detail!

The second phase of the Gate Futures Trading points airdrop is here with a bang, with a maximum of 900 PENGU available to claim, still in a "first come, first served" mode! Friends who participated in the previous two airdrops know that Gate has previously given away high-quality assets like the MEME king $DOGE , which is very resilient. So this wave of PENGU is sure to impress as well.

How to participate? It's simple 👇
The system will calculate rewards based on your account asset holdings + trading activity. As long as the points reach 13 points, you are eligible to participate and receive!

👉 Airdrop Claim Entry:

⏰ Airdrop claim start time: October 20, 2025 19:00 (UTC+8)

Lastly, let me remind everyone that for those who have trading records on Gate during this period, don't forget to check a few hours later to see if any surprises drop! For those who haven't jumped on board yet, this is also a good opportunity to experience it, after all, this kind of go long + airdrop win-win situation doesn't come every day.
