How Does Crypto Lending Work? From Deposit Interest to Liquidation Risks, Explained
In the DeFi world, some people earn interest by depositing crypto assets, while others borrow different tokens by using assets as collateral. The mechanism may seem simple, but it’s worth understanding how interest rates are set, how collateral ratios change, and what can trigger liquidation.
First, where does deposit interest come from?
After users deposit assets into a lending protocol, other users can borrow funds according to the protocol’s rules and pay interest. Depositors’ returns are typically tied to b

Bloodbath overnight! Democrats sweep, AI and crypto crash together

It’s not that crypto is weak; the regulatory axe hit U.S. stocks first.

The plunge last night had one root cause: Democrats unexpectedly won both chambers in the U.S. midterm elections, and the market fears a sweeping crackdown on AI and crypto. U.S. AI chip stocks fell first, with the Nasdaq down 6.4% and the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index plunging about 10%. Amid the spillover between stocks and crypto, $BTC fell below $76,000, down 5.2%; $ETH fell 7.5%, and SOL fell 5.5%. Liquidations across the market exceeded $1 bill

How can you tell whether a BTC pullback is a normal correction or a trend reversal?

In BTC trading, one of the most common mistakes people make is treating every decline as a trend reversal. As soon as the price pulls back, they rush to close their positions or even open short positions. But sometimes the market is simply making a normal correction during an uptrend, after which the price strengthens again.

So, how can you distinguish a normal pullback from a genuine trend reversal?

First, watch the structure of highs and lows. In a healthy uptrend, prices typically form progressively highe

Analysis: Short near 76500-77000 on a rebound, with a stop at 77500. First target: 75800; second target: 75200.

The 1H chart shows that after reaching a high of 81188, the market came under pressure and fell. High-volume bearish candles successively broke through support, with the price dipping to a low of 75158. The current price is 76187.7. The bullish structure has been broken, and concentrated selling pressure from bears has been released. The market has entered a weak correction, with limited room for a recovery rebound after becoming oversold. On the news front, Democ

What Do Historical Data Tell Us About BTC Price Trends After Halvings?

In the Bitcoin market, halvings have always been an important event for investors. With each halving, miners receive fewer block rewards, and the rate at which new BTC enters the market declines accordingly. Historically, BTC has experienced significant bull runs after several halvings, so many investors view halvings as an important basis for a long-term bullish outlook.

But can historical patterns really be repeated?

First, halvings change the rate of new supply. BTC halvings reduce the rate of new coin issuance, but d

Accepting normal volatility is the only way to have a chance of riding out the cycle 🫡
The worst is passing. As I said before, after the U.S. midterm elections, the time it took Bitcoin to bottom and start moving up again was:
◾️2014: Bottomed 71 days later, then started rising
◾️ 2018: Bottomed 39 days later, then started rising
◾️ 2022: Bottomed 13 days later, then started rising
Yesterday, Bitcoin surged from 77k to 81k, and today it fell back to around 75k. Technically, this is completely normal—nothing out of the ordinary. If I were a market manipulator, I’d at least push it down to arou

Wall Street just lived through one of its ugliest sessions in years.
On Thursday, November 5, 2026, the U.S. stock market suffered a brutal, broad-based selloff that erased the previous day’s strong post-midterm rally and then some. The S&P 500 plunged 4.4% — its worst single-day drop since the “Liberation Day” tariff shock in April 2025. The Dow Jones Industrial Average sank 1,833 points, or 3.4%. The Nasdaq Composite cratered 5.5% and officially entered correction territory, closing more than 10% below its October 6 record high.

In the fast-moving world of digital assets, trust is everything. Users entrust exchanges with their hard-earned funds, and every major incident reminds us how fragile that trust can be. Gate has just taken a meaningful step forward by officially launching **Proof of Security (PoSEC)** — a new framework that goes beyond traditional Proof of Reserves (PoR) and focuses on something equally critical: *how* assets are actually stored and whether they can survive an extreme loss scenario.

$NVDAB Bottom line: Bearish; the rebound is an opportunity to reduce positions, not a reversal signal. The moving averages are bearishly aligned, with MA5 (182.886) below MA20 (189.819). Although the price of 184.82 has barely moved above MA5, it remains capped below MA20, making this a weak technical bounce rather than a trend recovery. The MACD histogram at -0.1335 maintains bearish momentum, while the RSI at 35.8 is near the weak zone but not yet oversold, indicating that downside potential has not been fully exhausted. The lower Bollinger Band at 175.158 is the last line of defense in the

CZ was pardoned by Trump, and he thought his legal troubles with the U.S. were over. But just as he turned around, he became a focus of the Democrats’ investigation.

With the Democrats gaining ground in the midterm elections, Congress is likely to subject the pardon to stricter scrutiny. The Trump family’s business dealings with the crypto industry will be impossible to avoid.

Of course, being investigated does not mean the pardon will be overturned. But once the investigation gets underway, he will still have to bear the legal and public-opinion pressure.

The Nasdaq fell 5.5% in a single day. Using its previous high of roughly 18,000 as a ballpark, that works out to a nearly 1,000-point pullback in one session, sending it straight from the highs into correction territory. The S&P 500 followed with a 4.4% drop, or more than 260 points based on a level near 6,000. The main thing getting hit in this selloff is still the AI data center story—valuations were cut across the board for computing power, servers, power supply, cooling, optical modules, and related areas. On the market, the hardest-hit subsectors were those that had rallied the most. One

What Is a Market Maker? How Do They Improve Market Liquidity by Providing Buy and Sell Quotes, and What Risks Do They Face?

In the cryptocurrency market, whether a trade can be executed quickly depends not only on the willingness of buyers and sellers, but also on whether there is sufficient liquidity in the market. Market makers are important participants in providing market liquidity, but they are not intermediaries who always make a profit.
