#EspressoMainnetMarks Its Second Anniversary — 31.7M Blocks to 400ms Finality*

Two years ago this week, Espresso went live as a base layer without a VM or smart contracts — purpose-built for other chains to finalize on.

Here's what 2 years of relentless optimization delivered:

*By The Numbers — Nov 2024 → Nov 2026:*
- *Blocks finalized: 31.7M+*
- *Finality: 10s at launch → ∼3s (PoS upgrade Mar 2026) → 400ms today* (337ms avg, 778ms at peak load in Oct 2026 upgrade)
- *Throughput: 30 MB/s → 181 MB/s* (6x increase) — benchmarked on 100 global validators with emulated latency
- *Capacity: 1M s

Why did I choose to cut my losses decisively after the price broke below 70k? The 5-day moving average support at 70k has been broken, and below that is all empty space, with basically no support. This move will trap plenty of dip buyers. Longs, if you’re not too far underwater and the loss is within what you can accept, cut your losses if you can; otherwise, you’ll only get deeper and deeper in!

Remember, at this poker table, as long as you still have chips, you still have a chance! #Gate直通IPO第三期Anthropic #10月PPI低于预期

Strategy spent 2x more on preferred shares than Bitcoin, now exits MSCI
MSCI has scheduled Strategy’s removal from the MSCI USA Index for the November 30 close, putting a date on a financing test for the Bitcoin treasury company. MSTR common-stock sales recently funded both Bitcoin purchases and a larger preferred-share buyback.
During November 2–8, Strategy allocated $188 million of common-stock proceeds to STRC preferred-share repurchases and $82 million to Bitcoin purchases. The competition for that money makes future MSTR fundraising central to how quickly the company can keep adding Bitco

I took a lot of heat for giving this guy crap
But look at the crap he was peddling to his audience the entire time
48 times in less than a year he said "bulls are in control" – that's posts. As you can see in one rant, he says it 12 times alone
I guarantee he cost people in the millions of dollars worth of altcoin losses
That was what I was trying to prevent
None of his work was real analysis – I sincerely hope the industry can develop better standards in the future

Watching the League of Legends World Championship finals in the early hours
Opened the exchange and was stunned
It was simply horrific, a sea of blood...
Today is destined to be a sleepless night😭😭😭

#PolkadotNewStrategyReceives 97% Vote Support — A Shift to Products and dotUSD*

Polkadot has just approved its most significant strategic shift in years, with overwhelming consensus.

*Governance Results — Nov 11, 2026:*
- *Referendum 1954: DOT DAO Strategy Mandate — PASSED & EXECUTED*
- *97.3% Aye* — 9.65M DOT voted yes versus 269K DOT voted no (Wish For Change track)
- Companion Referendum 1944 (dotUSD launch): *98.4%* support previously
- Proposed by the Polkadot Community Foundation (PCF) on Oct 12

This is more than a minor parameter change—it’s a mandate to redefine how Polkadot measure

An investor who analyzes markets in isolation is like a tree that fails to see the forest as a whole. In the modern financial architecture, stocks, bonds, commodities, and cryptocurrencies are all tethered to a single lifeline—a lifeline now being fueled by artificial intelligence, energy, and liquidity.

Extreme fear for the 4th time in the last year. Each time was a bottom. Feels like we’ve finally hit the point where people are just a little too bearish. I know this sell off has exceeded most people expectations for this correction but that’s exactly how the market works. No matter how you slice it we are making a higher low on the htf charts and have flipped bullish structure since June lows. Now is not the time to panic.

How the hell did these stupid foreigners schedule the match? They have no sense of time at all—it's almost 4 and they still haven't started?

Anthropic’s $1.4 Trillion Valuation: A New AI Giant or an Overpriced Bet on Future Growth?

The artificial intelligence industry is entering a new phase where company valuations are increasingly driven by future potential rather than current profitability. Anthropic is becoming one of the most important examples of this trend. With a reported market valuation of approximately $1.4 trillion, the company is attracting enormous attention from institutional investors and the broader technology market.

But the big question is whether Anthropic genuinely deser

When we adopt a cautious tone or discuss risks in the markets, it can sometimes be perceived differently. For me, however, the core objective is to convey the facts—without misleading investors, distorting data, or falling for illusions. The common refrain today—that "gold is safe" or "bonds are safe"—is, unfortunately, a major fallacy, especially at a time when the global debt burden has reached historic highs. Central banks are caught in a balancing act: trying to rein in the monster of inflation while simultaneously struggling to manage massive debt loads through interest rate policy. When

15-minute volume: 9543734 tokens; $ASTER is in free fall, and I’m siding with the bears
$ASTER One 15-minute candle plunged from 0.6014 to 0.5499; the current price is 0.5293, down 19.51% over 24h! The direction is clear: bearish. Don’t catch the falling knife; wait for a rebound into the breakdown zone, then short.

First, volume: 24h trading volume is 17993593 USDT, with a volume ratio of 2.698. Volume across three 15m candles climbed from 142478 to 1337019 to 9543734—this is an exit, not a shakeout.

Second, levels: the 30-day range position is 0.012, near the floor. 7d: -22.45%; 30d: -24.9

$ZEC Currently at 851.74, down 11.19% over 24H. Both the 1H and 4H trends remain weak, and the EMA RSI is still near the lows. 1H resistance: 957.42; support: 845.57. 4H resistance: 1049.85; support: 845.57. If price holds above the 957.42 resistance level, a rebound may be worth watching; if it breaks below the 845.57 support, weakness may continue. Volume is only 0.04x the average, so a single break of either level needs confirmation from participation. In the follow-up review, watch whether price can hold above 957.42 and whether it can recover after losing 845.57. Market volatility is high
