What Is the Sharpe Ratio? How Can You Measure Whether a Trading Strategy’s Returns Are Worth the Risk?
In cryptocurrency trading, a high return does not necessarily mean a strategy is good. If a strategy can generate high returns but comes with sharp volatility and significant drawdowns, we need to assess whether those returns are worth the risk. The Sharpe ratio is one tool that can help answer this question.
First, what is the Sharpe ratio?
The Sharpe ratio measures the excess return earned by a portfolio or trading strategy per unit of volatility risk. Generally, a higher value indicates be

South Korea's financial sector put out another crypto tax update today
The crypto gains tax, originally set to take effect in January 2027, has been proposed for another delay until 2029
Counting from 2020, this would be the fourth postponement
The basic rules remain largely unchanged: the portion of annual net gains above 2.5 million won is taxed at 22%, including local tax; they also want to add a provision allowing losses to be carried forward for 3 years
Why the delay? Officials say the US won't join the OECD CARF information exchange until 2029, and taxing gains early could put domestic t

Gate’s Launch of PoSEC (Proof of Security): A Landmark Step Forward in Platform Security, Transparency, and User Trust
Gate has once again demonstrated why it stands among the leaders in the digital asset industry by officially introducing PoSEC – Proof of Security. This is not a minor update or a marketing slogan. It is a meaningful, practical advancement that addresses one of the most important concerns for every user: the real-world protection of their assets under both normal and extreme conditions. In a sector where trust must be earned thro
11.5 Midday Analysis$BTC
After a sharp rally yesterday, Bitcoin has now entered a consolidation and recovery phase. The lower Bollinger Band is providing support, bearish MACD momentum has eased somewhat, and the KDJ has turned upward from low levels. The broader weak trend is gradually improving, and the current pullback can be viewed as a healthy confirmation during the bottoming process. The room for an upside rebound deserves close attention.
After pulling back to its low on the 4-hour chart, the price stabilized and moved higher. The Bollinger Band channel is gradually rising, MACD volum

I'm having an internal tug-of-war:
My left brain thinks Democrats may hinder the construction of on-the-ground data centers, making it hugely bullish for SPCX's plan to build data centers in space.
My right brain thinks Musk backed the Republicans, but they lost the election. Democrats may retaliate against Musk and Trump and obstruct Musk's space plans at every turn, making it bearish for SPCX.
So overall, bullish or bearish? $SPCX

Ethereum at 2423; the market-turn window is within the next two weeks
No more afternoon chatter—straight to the three key levels, remember them:
Weekly EMA60 is at 2452; only a breakout would mean the rebound is continuing
Daily EMA15 and the Bollinger Band middle line are at 2350; holding on a retest is the bulls’ bottom line
Daily BOLL upper band is at 2490; failing to break through on a rebound is an opportunity for the bears
Upside plan: try longs at 2350–2360, stop-loss at 2300, target 2490
Downside plan: try shorts at 2480–2500, stop-loss at 2540, target 2350
At 2423, price is in the mid

Bitcoin Is Showing Signs of Recovery.
BTC is trading near $78,457, up 2.02% today.
Price has moved above the 7 day average, showing short term strength. However, the 30 day average near $81,011 remains the next major test.
A break above $81K could strengthen bullish momentum. The $73K area remains key support.

BTC View Update:
A strong rebound on the lower timeframes has pushed price back above 80K. This rally has honestly caught me a bit by surprise. I missed this long rebound, mainly because I thought the drop hadn't gone deep enough!
Looking at the overall structure, key resistance hasn't been broken yet, so the structure hasn't shifted. What happens next is the real focus. After consolidating, will price push higher to test resistance at 82K, or will it just make a sharp reversal and chop around in a volatile, choppy market?

Machi Big Brother is making a killing again!
He’s not only going long but also adding to his position, using 25x leverage to build from over 2,000 contracts to nearly 6,700. His latest average entry price is 2366, and his unrealized profit has surged past $460k, but his liquidation price has also been pushed up to 2391.
Big Brother is charging ahead with full confidence, but I’m actually not very bullish on this move in the short term. I recommend positioning for shorts around 2450.
The reasoning is simple:
This rebound after the election results came in looks more like a short squeeze followi

Gate has officially launched Proof of Security, or PoSEC, extending beyond Proof of Reserves by disclosing the distribution of cold-storage and hot-wallet assets and introducing a cold storage coverage ratio to measure protection under extreme-risk scenarios. Gate’s latest cold storage coverage ratio stands at 104.58%, with 88.26% of assets in cold storage and 11.74% in hot wallets. A coverage ratio of at least 100% means cold-storage assets alone would still be sufficient to cover all user assets even if hot-wallet assets were fully lost. Exchange security is not only about whether reserves are sufficient, but also how assets are stored and protected under extreme conditions. Could cold storage coverage become a new industry standard?[👉 Learn more](https://gate.com/proof-of-security)
