How to Recognize and Avoid Crypto Scams? Don’t Wait Until Your Assets Are at Risk to Learn About Security

In the Web3 world, risks come not only from price volatility; they may also be hidden in a direct message, an airdrop link, or even an apparently ordinary wallet approval.

Many scams don’t rely on complex technology. What they really exploit is often people’s expectations of free rewards, trust in authoritative identities, and poor judgment in urgent situations.

I. Watch Out for Four Common Types of Scams

1. Fake Airdrops and False Rewards

You may receive a message claiming that all y

What Is an Iceberg Order? How Can It Hide Part of an Order’s Quantity and Reduce the Visible Market Impact of Large Trades?

In cryptocurrency trading, placing a very large order directly on the order book may allow other market participants to infer trading intentions, which can affect prices and execution conditions. Iceberg orders limit how much of the total order is visible at once by displaying only part of the quantity and replenishing it after execution.

First, how do iceberg orders work?

Suppose you plan to buy 100 BTC but display only 10 BTC at a time. Once the displayed quantity is

When you buy an NFT, what do you actually own? The image, the copyright, or a record on the blockchain?

Many people encountering NFTs for the first time think of them as digital images that can be bought, collected, and resold.

But the core value of an NFT is not just the image itself. It lies in using the blockchain to record the ownership and transfer of a specific token. The key question is: What rights do you actually acquire when you buy an NFT?

I. Owning an NFT does not mean owning the copyright to the work

Buying an NFT usually means you gain control of that token on the correspondi

$PI ‌
Looking at the 15m chart, PI/USDT had been riding a strong upward trend, testing the upper Bollinger Band (UB: 0.07180) and peaking at a local high of 0.07210. However, a clear market structure change has just occurred; the price faced rejection at the top, printed a series of lower highs, and has now broken below the middle Bollinger Band (MB: 0.07090), currently trading around 0.07078. The K-line analysis shows a transition from bullish momentum to a consolidation/pullback phase, with the recent candles exhibiting longer lower wicks and bearish bodies as the price hunts for support ne

Stablecoins Are Not Bank Deposits: 4 Differences You Must Understand Before Using Them

In the Web3 world, stablecoins are often used for trade settlement, cross-border transfers, on-chain payments, and decentralized finance.

Because many stablecoins are pegged to the U.S. dollar, many users assume that as long as the price stays close to $1, they are much like the dollars in a bank account.

But there are several very important differences between the two.

First, a price peg is not a guarantee of principal.

Stablecoins typically seek to maintain a price relationship with a target asset thr

You know the drill. @Pumpfun

The community #PEPE is celebrating the rise but hasn’t forgotten to watch for possible exit signals. Here’s what people are discussing:

1. The increase in holder addresses and the price breaking above resistance strengthen the bullish outlook.
2. A claim that a large holder had sold prompted traders to watch the support level, although the information is unconfirmed.
3. The recent rise is happening amid widespread market fear, so it’s important to see whether the upward move will continue.

rising holder numbers and a break above resistance are positive signals

What Is Order Book Depth? How Can the Distribution of Bids and Asks Help Determine the Potential Price Impact of Large Orders?

In cryptocurrency trading, the latest price shown on screen does not mean all traders can execute trades at that price. What really affects the execution of large orders is the number of buy and sell orders at different price levels. Order book depth can help traders assess the market’s ability to absorb orders and the potential price impact of buying and selling.

First, what is order book depth?

The order book records limit buy and sell orders in the market that ha

What Is a Liquidation Cascade? Why Can a Large Wave of Liquidations Trigger a Rapid Market-Wide Sell-Off?
In crypto derivatives markets, one of the most dangerous market moves is a liquidation cascade. Many traders may initially face nothing more than a normal price pullback, but as large numbers of leveraged positions are forcibly liquidated in succession, it can ultimately turn into a rapid sell-off.
First, what is a liquidation cascade?
Simply put, a price drop causes some high-leverage long accounts to reach their liquidation thresholds. After the exchange forcibly closes those positions,

The largest Bitcoin miner has ditched “HODL forever”: capitulation or a bottom signal?

MARA, the largest Bitcoin miner, just sold 13,597 BTC at an average price of about $81,039, for a total value of more than $1.1 billion.

But that’s not the most important part.

They used the proceeds to fully repay a $750 million Bitcoin-backed loan. With the debt cleared, the 17,477 BTC that had been locked up as collateral were also released.

Selling coins, reducing leverage, and regaining liquidity—so far, this is just normal financial management.

The real change comes next.

MARA has long emphasized

Understand DeFi Protocols—Don’t Just Focus on APY: Where Does the Yield Come From, and Who Bears the Risk?

In DeFi (decentralized finance), one question that’s easy to overlook is: when a protocol advertises an attractive annual percentage yield, where exactly does that yield come from?

APY is just a way of presenting the result; it does not, on its own, prove that a protocol is worth participating in.

To assess whether a DeFi protocol is sustainable, you can start by looking at these four areas.

I. Where does the yield come from?

Yield may come from interest paid by borrowers, trading fe

#美国10月CPI全面超预期 When data and price conflict, I trust price first, but only use it to size my position

If PPI continues to come in above expectations and BTC does not break below its previous low, I will trust price more. But there is one condition: I only use price to decide whether I can act now; direction and potential upside or downside still depend on macro.

I. First, understand the marginal information in this CPI report
