Stablecoins: What are they, and why are they so important in the cryptocurrency world?

In the cryptocurrency market, stablecoins are often used for trade settlement, asset transfers, and on-chain financial activities.

Many people think stablecoins are cryptocurrencies whose price equals $1. But this only describes their target price and does not explain a more important question:

What allows them to maintain price stability? Can they remain stable if the market comes under pressure?

Understanding stablecoins requires looking at five aspects.

1️⃣ What are stablecoins?

Stablecoins are a cl

What Is an NFT, and What Value Does It Have in Web3? From Digital Ownership to Real-World Applications: Understanding the Opportunities and Risks of NFTs

In the Web3 world, NFTs once attracted widespread attention for digital art and collectibles. But their value is not limited to images. NFTs may also involve digital credentials, membership benefits, gaming assets, and the digitization of real-world assets.

So, what exactly is an NFT? Does buying one mean you own the copyright to the corresponding work? Why are some NFTs priced so highly yet can be difficult to sell?

Understanding these qu

Polymarket is going wild! Annualized revenue hits $1.8 billion—is the prediction market about to take off?

People used to trade crypto by guessing whether BTC would rise or fall; now they can predict everything from presidential elections, economic data, and sports matches to tech news. Crypto players’ imaginations have finally found a new outlet! 😂
Polymarket’s annualized revenue has already surpassed $1.8 billion, far above the more than $1 billion level in June this year, while nominal trading volume on the U.S. platform exceeded $14.5 billion in October.
These figures signal that predict

BTC | Yesterday's short stop-loss was spot-on

I reminded you yesterday that BTC's recent rebound has been clearly correlated with US stocks.

When US stocks rise, BTC rebounds too; when US tech stocks pull back, the crypto market is easily affected as well.

Today, tech stocks such as Nvidia and Sandisk weakened, and BTC pulled back too.

So yesterday's outlook remained bearish. Don't blindly chase longs at key levels; set the stop-loss for short positions at 75100 as planned.

I've been emphasizing that the recent rebound isn't enough to change my cautious stance toward the market.

Don't be

Tong Ge's 11.12 ETH outlook
$ETH Enter short around 2070-2090, stop loss at 2110, targets 2030-2000-1950.

Let's review yesterday's god-tier setup: Yesterday's high touched 2103, just 7 points short of the 2110 stop loss we gave, defending perfectly! Then the market immediately showed its true colors, plunging all the way to a low of 2034. Did the brothers who followed the setup firmly capture this 69-point move? Was that a satisfying bite?

Look at the market now: the pullback after the spike shows that selling pressure above 2100 is as heavy as a mountain. The price is now hovering around 20

$AAPLB I shorted a little Apple. Yesterday afternoon, I should have been up around $1,000, and a friend asked, “So why not take profits?” That’s a good question👍. I didn’t know it would go up either🤡

SanDisk surged more than 15% at one point during the session, Micron rose more than 12%, Seagate and SK Hynix gained more than 10%, and Western Digital climbed more than 8%. Yet just a month ago, SanDisk had fallen 36% since October 1, battered by rumors of an “AI data center slowdown.”

There were two keys to the reversal: one was price hikes—Bank of America cited TrendForce’s view that Q4 DRAM and HBM contract prices would rise another 10%–20% quarter over quarter, while NAND would climb 8%–13%; the other was Morgan Stanley turning bullish, saying orders and sentiment were diverging, risk/re

Old Huang’s real impeachment has begun.

Personal missteps are now under the microscope, and no one can withstand an investigation of this magnitude. The Democrats’ tactics are ruthless, and this is only about what’s in his pants. Mistakes made in moments of smugness and celebration have now become karmic retribution. When fortune is on your side, heaven and earth lend their strength; when it turns, even heroes lose their freedom.

The best move now is to follow Jack Ma’s example: step back from the front lines and travel to a third country. Staying in office will only invite more attacks. The

Huang's sexual misconduct issue looks like it's about to blow up. I was originally thinking of finding a place to buy the dip $NVDA , but now I've switched to going short.
What’s come out so far is that he not only had a thing with that person who was branded a Chinese spy, but also got involved with a female executive at the company who reported to him.
So it’s not just mistress number three, but number four too. Who knows if numbers five, six, seven, and eight will come out later. The company’s internal affair rumors are also a serious problem; several CEOs of U.S.-listed companies have step

How to Identify Legitimate Airdrops and Avoid Scams? Learn Key Checks to Safely Explore On-Chain Opportunities

In the Web3 world, an airdrop is a way for a project to distribute tokens or other digital assets to eligible users.

Some airdrops reward early users, others encourage community participation, and some are tied to a project's ecosystem development and governance mechanisms.

But keep in mind: an airdrop does not mean free money. Fake claim pages, malicious wallet approvals, fake customer support, and scams that demand upfront payment can cost users far more than expected.

So how sh

11.12 BTC Market Analysis $BTC

BTC is currently in a key trading range, with 75000 acting as strong short-term resistance and 72500 as an important line of defense for the bulls. Looking at the chart structure, repeated tests near 72500 have held, forming a support base for now and indicating strong buying interest at this level. Meanwhile, previous rallies toward 75000 were rejected, and trapped holders combined with profit-taking are creating short-term selling pressure. In terms of volume, recent rebounds have come on declining volume while pullbacks have seen rising volume, suggesting li

What Is an NFT? Where Does Its Value Really Come From? Understanding the Opportunities and Risks of NFTs, from Digital Ownership to Practical Applications

Why would someone pay for a digital image? Why might an NFT be highly valuable, yet go unnoticed for a long time?

To understand NFTs, it’s not enough to focus on trading prices. You also need to understand what rights they represent, what uses they offer, and why the market is willing to pay for them.

1️⃣ What exactly is an NFT?

NFT is short for Non-Fungible Token; its commonly used Chinese name literally means “non-fungible token.”

What key information should you check before using a DApp?

In the Web3 world, using a decentralized application (DApp) may require only connecting a wallet, signing a message, or confirming a transaction.

The operation may look simple, but there is much more to consider:

Who developed the application? Can its smart contracts be trusted? Are the permissions it requests reasonable? If something goes wrong, do you understand what risks you are taking on?

Don’t assume a DApp is safe just because it works properly; and don’t assume all risks have disappeared just because it has an audit report.

November 12, 2026 Daily Analysis
The near-term outlook and market environment are poor, with no strong upward trend... There are no particularly positive macro catalysts. Without positive news, short positions can follow the broader trend, with wicks down to 69,100, 68,500, 1,865, and 1,780. If Trump has some governing authority, bearish pressure could continue for a while.

For the day: Focus mainly on range-bound shorts... Only take shorts in the direction of the trend. I don't recommend longing a bottom bounce. If no short entry comes during the day, gradually build a position...

$ARIA $ARIA BOOM🤑🤑 Another sharp leg down, TP1 and TP2 hit. Another big score, guys🙈💸💸Check the cash hitting your account, hehe😍🥰$KGEN $AGT

Still unequivocally bullish today. Numerous on-chain and long-term indicators show that the bear market is over. The previous low of 57,700 was the definitive bottom for this year.

The awkward thing now is that U.S. stocks are rising while crypto remains very weak. We may not have completed the full correction yet, and this decline could ultimately stop around the 50% Fibonacci retracement level, near 72,500.

In any case, the short-term focus this week is still on buying dips, and the long-term outlook is bullish too!

Set an intraday bid to go long at 72,500, with a stop-loss at 71,800 and

How to Identify and Avoid Crypto Scams? Don’t Wait Until Your Assets Are at Risk to Learn About Security

In the Web3 world, risks don’t just come from price volatility. They can also hide in a direct message, an airdrop link, or even an apparently ordinary wallet approval.

Many scams don’t rely on complex technology. They often exploit people’s hopes for free rewards, trust in authority, and poor judgment in urgent situations.

I. Watch Out for Four Common Types of Scams

Stablecoins look like digital dollars, but why aren’t they the same as dollars in a bank?

In the cryptocurrency market, stablecoins are often used for trade settlement, asset parking, and on-chain payments. Many people think that as long as a token’s price stays close to $1 over the long term, it can be treated as cash.

But a similar price does not mean the risks are the same.

I. Why can stablecoins maintain price stability?

Different stablecoins rely on different mechanisms to maintain their price. Three common types are:

1. Fiat-reserve-backed

The issuer holds reserve assets such as ca
