Why Has Ethereum Continued to Underperform Bitcoin? Is ETH’s Core Competitiveness Weakening?

Over the past while, Ethereum (ETH) has clearly underperformed Bitcoin (BTC). Whether in price performance, investor attention, or market narratives, ETH has faced some pressure. This has led investors to ask: Is Ethereum’s core competitiveness changing?

I believe there are four main reasons why ETH is underperforming BTC.

First, market narratives have shifted. When macroeconomic uncertainty rises, investors are more inclined to view Bitcoin as digital gold and make it a core holding in their crypto

What is Layer 2? How does it lower transaction costs, and what risks does it involve?

In the Web3 world, you may have encountered this situation: when the network is congested, even a simple on-chain transaction may require a relatively high fee.

To improve transaction processing efficiency and lower user costs, Layer 2 (second-layer scaling solutions) have gradually become an important part of the blockchain ecosystem.

But what exactly is Layer 2? Why can it make transactions cheaper? And what should you be aware of when using it?

1. What is Layer 2?

Simply put, Layer 2 is a scaling solu

5 Common Mistakes in Backing Up Your Recovery Phrase—you may be making them too

In the crypto world, many people know that recovery phrases are important, but not everyone knows how to back them up properly.

Some take screenshots of their recovery phrases and save them on their phones, some upload them to cloud drives, and others think that as long as they remember their password, they can easily recover their wallet even if they forget their recovery phrase.

These seemingly convenient practices may actually expose digital assets to unnecessary risks.

A truly mature trader is not someone who gets it right every time, but someone with a set of rules to control losses even when they get it wrong.

After entering the cryptocurrency market, many people keep looking for more accurate indicators, better entry signals, and higher win rates.

But one question is often overlooked:

If your judgment is wrong repeatedly, can your account still withstand it?

A complete trading risk management system should include more than just stop-losses. It should cover the entire process, from planning and execution to review.

Step 1: Define your trading goals a

Why can the U.S. dollar influence global financial markets? What does a stronger dollar mean for Bitcoin, gold, and U.S. stocks?

Many investors notice that when the U.S. Dollar Index continues to strengthen, global financial markets often come under varying degrees of pressure. Bitcoin falls, gold comes under pressure, and volatility in U.S. stocks increases. What is the logic behind this?

First, the U.S. dollar is the world’s most important reserve and international settlement currency. A large volume of international trade, commodity transactions, and cross-border financing is closely tied

What opportunities does DeFi offer, and what risks does it conceal? Understanding the mechanics behind returns

In the Web3 world, DeFi (decentralized finance) is often associated with lending, liquidity mining, yield farming, and other concepts.

Some people use DeFi to seek new financial opportunities, while others suffer losses chasing high returns.

So where exactly do DeFi returns come from? Why can some protocols offer relatively high returns, and what risks are concealed behind those returns?

To understand DeFi, it is not enough to look at yields; you also need to understand how funds

What Is a Private Key? Why Is It the Core of Your Digital Asset Security?

In the Web3 world, you may often hear the phrase: “Not your keys, not your coins.”

But what exactly is a private key? Why is it so important? If you don't have the private key, does that mean the assets don't belong to you?

To truly understand how digital asset security works, you first need to understand the role private keys play in the blockchain ecosystem.

1. What exactly is a private key?

Simply put, a private key is secret information used to generate digital signatures. In many blockchain systems, wallets use

What Is a Whitepaper? How to Read and Evaluate a Crypto Project Correctly?

In the cryptocurrency market, we often see projects publish a document called a Whitepaper. It usually introduces the project's vision, technical solutions, token mechanics, and future development plans.

For people new to Web3, a whitepaper may look highly technical, filled with jargon, economic models, and roadmaps. But there is an important question to consider:

Does a highly professional whitepaper really mean the project is trustworthy?

Not necessarily.

A whitepaper is an important starting point for understand

What Exactly Is the Funding Rate? How Does It Affect Trading?

In crypto futures trading, many people focus only on BTC's daily price movements while overlooking an important metric: the funding rate.

Sometimes, BTC keeps rising, yet traders going long have to keep paying funding fees. How does that work?

First, the funding rate is a periodic payment between long and short traders in perpetual futures markets. Its main purpose is to help keep the contract price close to the spot price.

When the funding rate is positive, it usually means the perpetual contract price is relatively high, and l

In the cryptocurrency market, there isn’t a clear upward or downward trend every day. Often, BTC fluctuates repeatedly within a price range, pulling back after rising to a certain level and bouncing after falling to another. This is called a ranging market.

Many traders chase rallies and sell off in a panic in ranging markets. As a result, the market fails to move in either direction, while fees and consecutive stop-losses keep draining their account funds. So, how should you trade a ranging market?

First, range trading. Look for buying opportunities near relatively clear support zones, and

Why do some traders start increasing their position sizes after several consecutive wins, while after consecutive losses they tend to forget the trading rules they originally set?

There is an easily overlooked issue behind this: traders’ perception of risk changes with their recent gains and losses.

After consecutive wins, people tend to attribute their good fortune to their own ability.

As a result, positions that were originally cautious start getting larger, strict entry conditions begin to loosen, and they may even believe the next trade is worth taking on greater risk.

After consecuti
