Why Bitcoin's Next Soft Fork May Be a Practice Run
Matt Corallo, a longtime Bitcoin developer and co-author of BIP-54, estimates an 80% chance that the “Great Consensus Cleanup” will be Bitcoin’s next soft fork. First proposed in 2019, the upgrade aims to fix four lingering consensus vulnerabilities: poison blocks, time warp bugs, Merkle malleability, and duplicate coinbase transactions.
Corallo described the changes as addressing “cruft” in Bitcoin’s consensus design—real concerns that could negatively impact the network but not existential threats. “There’s a laundry list of things we know o

$FIL SHORT SETUP — BEARS EYE ANOTHER BREAKDOWN!

$FIL continues to show weakness after a sharp sell-off, with lower highs and sellers maintaining control.

Entry: 0.8016
SL: 0.8145

TP1: 0.7890
TP2: 0.7810
TP3: 0.7763
Final Target: 0.7636

The recent recovery failed to sustain momentum, and price is slipping back toward 0.7992 support. If this level breaks, selling pressure could accelerate toward 0.7763 and potentially lower.

Invalidation: A sustained recovery above 0.8145 weakens the bearish setup.

Honestly, the 12% upfront fee made me wince too at first glance.

But think about it—when Circle went public, its stock doubled right out of the gate. Did you get in? If not, you probably ended up chasing it at a higher price. That’s what really costs you.

I’ve been trading for years, and the most expensive thing has never been the “fees”—it’s “not getting the allocation.” The VIP round is basically paying for a guaranteed spot. Top-tier channels have historically had allocation rates of 40%–80%. If you put in 100,000, you’ll most likely get an allocation worth 40,000–80,000.

$ZEC Currently at 1320.39, up 4.56% over 24H, with a range of 1256.95–1387.89. The 1H outlook is weak (RSI 41.73, price below EMA20 at 1323.12); the 4H outlook is strong (RSI 51.25, price above EMA20 at 1295.04), with a volume ratio of 0.12. Holding above the 1387.89 resistance could signal further gains, while breaking below the 1257.03 support would weaken the short-term outlook. Review whether price holds above 1387.89 and reclaims 1257.03; volume is only 0.12x, so a single break needs confirmation from market participation, and failure to reclaim the level invalidates the signal.

Why Do Altcoins Rise Faster but Fall More Sharply?
Many crypto investors have experienced this:
When a bull market arrives, BTC rises 10%, while some altcoins can climb 30% or even 50%. Watching other coins surge quickly, it’s easy to feel that simply buying altcoins can bring higher returns than Bitcoin.
But when the market reverses, things can be very different.
Why do altcoins often rise faster and fall harder?
First, altcoins generally have less market depth than Bitcoin. When large amounts of capital flow in, the limited sell orders can be quickly absorbed, causing prices to rise rapidly.

I laughed at the news this morning that RWA on Solana had topped 5 billion. Looking at the market now, I’m not laughing anymore—it’s hovering just above 90 in the short term, down more than 5% this week, and still nowhere near the level to watch.

Last night’s nonfarm payrolls data crushed the last bit of hope. Employment came in above expectations, Treasury yields shot up, and money flowed out of risk assets. Even Bitcoin couldn’t hold up and got hammered lower. With liquidity draining away, who expects anything to swim against the current? SOL is following the same trend; billions in on-chai

💡 Even if you can't code, you can still try developing your own trading strategy!

You only need to describe your trading idea in one sentence, for example:

“When the MACD golden cross occurs and the price moves above the moving average, signal a long; signal a short when a death cross occurs.”

AI can then help generate the corresponding indicator and standalone strategy code.

Make the complex coding process more intuitive, allowing traders to focus more of their energy on strategy logic and market research.

Your trading idea can start with a single sentence.

South Korea's KOSPI Plunges 8%: Are Dip Buyers Stepping In or Is This Just a Temporary Breather?

South Korea's stock market experienced a dramatic sell-off on November 6, with the benchmark KOSPI falling as much as 8.55% during the session. The sharp decline triggered a 20-minute circuit breaker, temporarily suspending trading. Although the index recovered part of its losses after trading resumed, the market still closed down 6.02% at 5,059.69 points.

In my view, this recovery shows that some investors are willing to buy at lower prices, but it is too earl

SEC and CFTC: Shaping the Future of Crypto Regulation
Introduction
Regulation continues to play a major role in shaping the future of cryptocurrency and financial markets. Two important institutions in the United States, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC), are increasingly important in discussions about digital assets, investor protection, and market transparency.
As cryptocurrency adoption grows, the relationship between regulatory clarity and innovation has become one of the most important topics f
