What Is Arbitrage Trading? Why Doesn’t a Price Difference for the Same Crypto Asset Across Different Markets Necessarily Mean There Is Risk-Free Profit?

In crypto markets, the same asset may be quoted at different prices on different exchanges, and price gaps may also exist between spot and contract markets. Arbitrage trading seeks to profit from these differences, but in practice, fees, slippage, transfer delays, and market volatility can all erase seemingly certain profits.

First, what is arbitrage trading?

Arbitrage trading is a strategy that seeks to profit from price differences betwee

Three locations, a killing spree, and 8 lives gone just like that—what kind of lunatic is this!
In Afyonkarahisar Province, Turkey, an armed attack spanned three locations, leaving 8 dead and 1 seriously injured; the governor’s office statement laid out the figures clearly
The suspect was arrested by police in neighboring Eskişehir Province, meaning the person fled after the killings and was only caught after a cross-province manhunt
What’s infuriating is that the motive still hasn’t been disclosed. Eight people are dead, and not a word about why. Hearing “a judicial investigation is underway”

#ETH A few days ago, I said we'd break below 2200, and it’s about to happen.
The bottom of this pullback was near 2031, at the daily downtrend Fibonacci extension level 2-, before it rebounded in a straight V-shape. #回调下跌

Bitcoin Lightning fix blocks probe linking private channels to onchain funding
LDK has patched a privacy leak that could have connected an unannounced Lightning channel to the Bitcoin transaction output funding it.
The fix blocks an onion-message probe documented by Bitcoin Optech that required an attacker to connect to both suspected channel endpoints and guess the channel’s real short-channel ID. If the message relayed successfully, the attacker could confirm the guessed on-chain output belonged to a channel between those nodes.

BTC traded steadily during the day yesterday, then saw a sharp pullback at 8 pm, though volume was limited. It was not until U.S. stocks opened at 10:30 pm that the market turned sharply lower, with successive high-volume declines and a concentrated wave of selling. The price fell through the two support levels previously anticipated, one after the other, signaling the failure of this breakout attempt.
The decline also sent several clear signals. First, endogenous selling pressure within crypto was not significant: the market was largely unaffected during non-U.S. trading hours, with selling c

Oracle Could Lead the Next AI Applications Rally
The US technology market is facing heavy selling pressure, but I believe the AI revolution is far from over. Instead, investors are changing their priorities. Previously, the focus was on AI chips, servers, and data centers. Now investors want to see real revenue, sustainable profits, and measurable returns from AI investments.

My main focus is Oracle (ORCL) because its cloud infrastructure, enterprise software, and database technology could position it strongly in the next stage of AI adoption.

A loud bang has sounded on Wall Street, where a real-life "Battle Royale" is unfolding among hedge funds.
First, take a look at these alarming figures:
**Walleye Capital, a $17 billion fund, couldn't hold on.** The multi-strategy hedge fund has cut its core long-short equity team, returned capital to investors, and begun restructuring. It lost 5.9% in October alone, its worst performance since March 2020—remember, that was the month of U.S. stock market circuit breakers.
**Even more striking are the figures disclosed by Goldman Sachs: Hedge funds net sold about $20 billion in tech stocks over

$BTC This is the only chart you need to watch...

We're sat right on the 50 week MA and the bull market support bands.

Historically, multiple weekly closes below this region mean the bear market is still in effect and this rally was manipulation.

Lose these levels and the previous low of $57k could get retested.

What Is Triangular Arbitrage? How Can You Find Opportunities Using Price Relationships Among Three Trading Pairs, and Why Can Trading Fees Turn Theoretical Profits Into Losses?

In the cryptocurrency market, price relationships between different trading pairs on the same exchange can sometimes briefly become misaligned. Triangular arbitrage takes advantage of this discrepancy by completing three consecutive trades to exchange assets, with the aim of ending up with more of the starting asset. But spotting a price gap does not necessarily mean you can make a profit.

BTC falls below $76k: How can quants identify the next market regime shift?
The Nasdaq plunged 5.5%, and BTC fell below $76k! Last night’s sell-off: many people only understood half of what happened. The market was quite interesting last night. After the results of the U.S. midterm elections were announced on Wednesday, U.S. stocks surged for a time, and BTC climbed back toward $80k. But on Thursday, the market suddenly reversed. The Nasdaq plunged 5.5%, the S&P 500 fell 4.4%, and the Dow dropped more than 1,800 points. Chip and AI-related stocks faced concentrated selling. BTC couldn’t hold u

Cross Margin vs. Isolated Margin: What’s the Difference? A Clear Guide to Margin, Risk Isolation, and Liquidation

In crypto futures trading, one question comes up again and again:

Which is safer: cross margin or isolated margin?

Some believe cross margin is more flexible because the account’s available margin can provide a buffer for positions. Others believe isolated margin is safer because the margin risk of each position is relatively separate.

But both views are only partially right.

The core difference between cross margin and isolated margin is not which mode can eliminate risk, but
