What is the funding rate? Why can perpetual contracts continue to incur holding costs even when the price has barely changed?
In cryptocurrency trading, many people focus only on price movements after opening a position and overlook the funding rate. For perpetual contract traders, even if the price stays flat for a long time, holding a position may still generate additional costs or income as long as the funding rate is non-zero.
First, what is the funding rate?
The funding rate is a mechanism in perpetual contracts through which longs and shorts periodically pay fees to each other, helping k

Next Technology allowed to sell 5,833 BTC worth $450M
Next Technology Holding, a Japanese software company listed on Nasdaq, has received board approval to sell a portion or all of its ~5,833 BTC, or use the entire position as collateral to raise capital. At the price of Bitcoin at the time of disclosure, the holdings are valued at roughly $449–$450 million.
The approval does not mean Bitcoin has been sold. CEO Weihong Liu has the authority to decide the timing, volume, and price of any transactions. The company may sell BTC on exchanges, execute over-the-counter deals, or use the assets as co

#DemocratsWinBothHousesOfCongress
Democrats have retaken full control of Congress in Nov 3 midterms, setting up divided rule as White House stays GOP. This is first time since 2023 that one party holds both chambers while rival holds presidency.
House: AP tally shows Dem 235 won plus 26 leading, GOP 146 plus 28 leading, 218 needed for control. NBC projects at least 258 seats for Dems, with over 60 still to be called. Dems held 215 before vote, GOP 219 plus one caucus ally. Net gain at least 20 seats. Vote share 60.2 million Dem vs 47.5 million GOP.
Upper house: Dems needed four to flip 100-me

The free mint window for @FungoLabs Genesis opens in a few hours and the paid side looks nothing like a regular drop.
Whitelist holders and nominees get the first 500 spots starting at 12:30 UTC.
After that the remaining 2,500 move into a sealed auction that runs a full day.
The auction side works like this:
→ you pick a price and quantity in cZAMA
→ both numbers stay encrypted until the window closes
→ the lowest bid that still fills the supply sets the price
→ every winner pays that same amount and the rest comes back
Each NFT also comes sealed so the holder decides if the art ever goes pu

What Is Open Interest (OI)? Why Doesn’t Rising Open Interest Necessarily Mean Prices Will Rise Soon?
In crypto futures trading, many people see open interest continue to rise and assume the market is about to rally. But open interest reflects the size of contracts that have not yet been closed, not simply the amount of buying capital. To correctly understand market movements, OI must be analyzed alongside price, trading volume, and funding rates.
First, what is OI?
Open interest (OI) refers to the total number of contracts that remain open at a given point in time. OI may increase when new con

What Is a Liquidation Cascade? Why Can One Round of Forced Liquidations Amplify Short-Term Volatility in the Cryptocurrency Market?
In the cryptocurrency market, a rapid price decline can sometimes trigger the forced liquidation of more long positions. The resulting selling pressure may push prices down further, triggering another round of liquidations. This mutually reinforcing process is called a liquidation cascade.
First, how does a liquidation cascade form?
When losses mount for traders using leverage and their margin becomes insufficient, trading platforms may forcibly close their positi

Monitor the market yourself when entering short-term trades; you are responsible for your own profits and losses. It's always right to take profits whenever you want. If your profit doubles, be sure to set your stop-loss at breakeven promptly.

⚖️ OFAC has once again extended the freeze on Citgo: the auction is on hold until December 18.
There have now been 28 extensions since the original license. No one gets paid yet, and no one loses yet: a technical stalemate renewed every few weeks, leaving uncertainty as the case’s main asset.
But the most important detail isn’t the extension itself, but a clarification from OFAC: the agency hinted that it could authorize specific licenses allowing holders of PDVSA 2020 bonds to negotiate restructurings or refinancings, even separately from the guarantee tied to Citgo.
It’s the first sign in ye

Beyond Proof of Reserves, Gate has introduced PoSEC, a new Proof of Security framework focused on how user assets are stored and protected. By disclosing the distribution of assets across cold storage and hot wallets, users can directly understand Gate’s storage structure and risk coverage under extreme scenarios. Gate’s latest cold storage coverage ratio stands at 104.58%, meaning cold-storage assets alone are sufficient to cover all user assets. PoR verifies whether reserves are sufficient, while PoSEC shows how assets are stored and how risks are covered — together forming a more complete asset security framework.
