At three in the morning, I went through the LP records in my wallet again. Honestly, a lot of people think market making means tossing in some coins and picking up money every minute—if only it were that easy. The AMM curve may look flat, but impermanent loss cuts you one slice at a time. I’ve been burned myself: I thought I had calculated everything properly, but then the market made a sharp one-way move, and all the money I made on one side was wiped out by inventory losses—and I ended up paying extra.
Now, before adding to a pool, I run the numbers three times: how volatile it is, how large
Another one has fallen, and North Korean hackers are ruthless enough.

According to Coin Circle News, SecondFi announced it has suspended operations because a wallet holding 161k ADA (about $2.4 million) was stolen. The attacker exploited a vulnerability in its transaction-signing software and stole funds from 374 wallets. Although the vulnerability has been fixed, SecondFi said it will not resume normal operations. Before the attack, the platform had ensured the security of 129 million ADA. The investigation indicates that the main attacker is highly skilled and has sufficient funds, with some clues pointing to North Korea’s Lazarus organization. SecondFi expects to release a wallet export tool in early August and launch a zero-knowledge recovery portal later in the same month.
Honestly, every time I get itchy and want to chase the pump, I first force myself to calm down—“Has something real changed in the information, or is FOMO emotions just pushing me up here?” With this recent market move, so many people around me are shouting “If you don’t get in now, you’ll miss it,” and even hardware wallets are selling out… Then I looked at the news—one phishing link screenshot from the community is more outrageous than the last. The security guys are basically about to burst bloodshot eyes from yelling “don’t click anything,” and I genuinely feel: better to wait on the sideli
I just saw more news about a cross-chain bridge incident. Back when the oracle pricing was abnormal, everyone across the whole chain was waiting for confirmation, which really made people uneasy. To be honest, the fragmentation of assets across multiple chains is pretty annoying now—every time you open a new chain you have to set up a new address. Moving funds around eats up a lot in fees, and it’s also easy to get the addresses mixed up. Personally, I prefer splitting the wallet by chain: keep only one main address per chain, and don’t put lending and NFTs in the same pool, otherwise liquidat
Just after I noticed the coffee had gone cold, I casually checked the wallets on-chain and found that someone else is batch-sweeping those social mining points and badges again. Honestly, it’s kind of moving.
I’ve seen plenty of people burn time—interacting all day, sending money back and forth, staying up until the early hours—just to assemble a particular project identity. Then the project team changes the rules, or shuts things down altogether, and all that time goes to waste. I’m stingy, but I’m clear-headed—my time costs far more than those points.

I just saw that another cross-chain bridge incident happened. After the oracle issued abnormal quotes, everyone is waiting for confirmation—honestly, it’s really scary. I’ve been thinking a lot lately: what kind of approach is actually suitable for ordinary people to protect their assets?
What I fear most isn’t losing money—it’s losing control. If you lose money, you can still blame the market, but once your assets are gone, taken by someone else, and you can’t even control them yourself anymore—that’s what truly feels awful.

I took a look at the interest rates, and it actually made me feel more at ease. At the end of the day, macro is basically about where the money is going. When rates are high, people’s risk appetite naturally shrinks, and positions get tighter too. Lately I’ve basically reduced leverage, raised my liquidation threshold, and I’d rather earn a bit less than be woken up in the middle of the night to top up margin. After all, the flow of funds is the biggest trend—it's not something you can draw on a K-line.
As for social mining and fan tokens, I’ve always been half skeptical. Even if attention is
Someone asked me how to set a stop-loss for memes. To be honest, this is pretty hard, because meme pumps and dumps basically don’t follow any logic. Right now, public opinion keeps linking ETF fund flows and US stock risk appetite to crypto in their interpretation, and it sounds plausible. But if you try to apply that framework to a cheap dog coin, you’ll probably get liquidated down to your last pair of underwear. I’m personally more cautious. Before buying, I calculate in advance how much I can afford to lose—for example, setting a warning line for the loan-to-value ratio. When the narrative

To be honest, the chains keep multiplying—my wallets are almost becoming a jigsaw puzzle. L2s compete on TPS today, and chase subsidies tomorrow. I watch the spectacle, but it’s even more of a headache: assets are scattered everywhere like fog. Without a checklist of how much is on each chain, it’s really easy to forget.
A couple of days ago, my dad asked me, “You’ve split your money across so many places—aren’t you afraid you won’t be able to find it one day?” I told him, “I’m afraid of it running away, but even more afraid that I can’t get it back.”
What I do now is: put only a thin layer on
Can’t hold your spot, and then your contract gets blown up—at the end of the day, it’s just one sentence: you never really figured out how much you’re actually able to lose.
A lot of people jump in going all-in right away. When it pumps they want to sell, and when it dumps they try to hold on, and in the end they end up pleasing neither side. Actually, position management isn’t that mysterious. In plain language: **treat your position as the money you can afford to lose in your wallet, not the money you think you can earn in your dreams**.
When I do NFT lending and collateral myself, I spend w
Just closed that airdrop task page, and the more I look, the more it feels like the way to play now is off. They say it’s about interaction to prevent female Sybils, but in the crowded spots it’s all scythes—one wrong move and you get hit with anti-scam rakeback fees. Lately, the privacy coin side has been noisy too: where exactly is the compliance boundary for mixers? Some projects just run off, while others stubbornly push through regulation. Bottom line: I’m leaning toward being more cautious now—rather grab less than get trapped by the protocol, or worse, help with laundering/clearing. In
Farming rewards now really feels like working a regular job: task platforms one after another. After you finish, you still have to guard against Sybils and boost your rating, and you get docked points at the drop of a hat. It’s exhausting. Put simply, it’s just switching workplaces to work—and even “slacking off” feels like overtime.
Recently I’ve been looking at those RWA yield products tied to U.S. Treasuries. Compared with traditional options, the on-chain yields don’t seem that appealing either—at the end of the day, it’s all just bookkeeping. Forget it. In plain terms: farming rewards is
I felt itchy just now and wanted to chase an NFT higher, but I forced myself to hold off and go check the on-chain settlement data. Turned out the depth in those liquidity pools is so shallow that if you chase in, you’d probably end up as a bag holder for someone else. In plain terms, in this market, before you impulse-buy, ask yourself one thing: did you see exact information, or are you being carried away by FOMO emotions? Anyway, I kept myself in check by calculating the collateral ratio—once I ran the numbers, I knew it was a dead end.
The recent cross-chain bridge theft has caused quite a
I recently came across some interesting chatter about on-chain data tools. You can just slap a label on it and call it “evidence”? Honestly, I’ve always felt that scrubbers can be scrubbed out—and then scrubbed back in again too. Whether it’s actually lagging or not is really hard to say.
Anyway, circling back to MEV: I’m pretty direct about it. Those “queue-jumping” operations, put simply—you think it’s fair competition, but in reality they’ve already been using you as “fuel” from the start. Especially when it comes to liquidations: I calculate the collateralization ratio pretty carefully. Bu
I used to stick stubbornly to the mainnet, thinking L2 stuff was all flashy and that transfers were too much trouble.
Later, gas taught me a lesson. I tried a bit of Arb and OP, and for day-to-day small interactions, it really is great— the fees I saved is enough for several cups of coffee.
But if we’re talking about trade-offs… honestly, the cross-chain experience is still awful. Especially recently, when cross-chain bridges ran into problems again: after the oracle got tweaked, everyone was stuck there waiting for “final confirmation,” and it felt nerve-wracking.

In July, the probability of staying put exceeds 60%, and the market is once again speculating about what the Federal Reserve is thinking.

CoinWorld News: According to A’s monitoring of early issuance, the CME and the Federal Reserve watch indicate that the probability of the Federal Reserve keeping interest rates unchanged through July is 63.1%, and the probability of cumulative rate hikes of 25 basis points is 36.9%. The probability of keeping interest rates unchanged through September is 28.3%, the probability of cumulative rate hikes of 25 basis points is 51.4%, and the probability of cumulative rate hikes of 50 basis points is 20.4%.
A $150 mining machine, a lottery with an expected value spanning 18,000 years—he really scratched one off and hit it.

A single Bitcoin miner uses a $150 Bitaxe device to earn a $200k block reward
A miner used a Bitaxe device worth $150 to mine block 957,382 in a public mining pool and earned 3.1382 BTC (about $200k). Of this, 3.125 BTC was the block reward, and 0.0132 BTC was the transaction fee. Its average hashrate was about 995.2 GH/s, close to 1 TH/s, but it represents only a tiny fraction of the Bitcoin network. Based on CoinDesk’s estimates, at this rate it would take about 18k years to find a block. Although solo miners have found 24 blocks in the past 12 months, solo mining is not predictable.
Whales are starting to accumulate again—could this $3.58 million be sensing some news?

JPMorgan noted that the shift of blockchain toward permissioned chains poses a structural risk to Bitcoin. BlackRock transferred 951.5 BTC to Coinbase Prime, worth about $59 million. Circle faces criminal charges filed by prosecutors in Wisconsin for refusing to assist in recovering scam funds. The US Supreme Court ruled 6-3 that the president has the power to remove leaders of independent federal agencies, affecting the progress of SEC and CFTC regulation.
