Bitcoin Market Analysis — October 25, 2026
Bitcoin is trading near $80,900–$81,000 right now, sitting in the lower-middle of a week-long trading range. Over the past week price pushed to roughly $84,800 on October 21, got sold sharply to about $80,800 on October 22 during the tech-stock slide, and has since been chopping between roughly $79,200 and $81,100. Over the last 24 hours BTC is essentially flat (about −0.03%), and over the last seven days it is down about 0.9%. This is not a fresh high and not a confirmed breakdown, it is a congested, indecisive market waiting on the

Where Do DeFi’s High Yields Come From? Understanding Yield Sources Matters More Than Chasing Numbers
In the DeFi world, you may see certain liquidity pools, lending protocols, or yield strategies offering fairly high annualized yields.
But there’s one question worth asking first:
Who exactly is paying these yields? And through what mechanisms are they generated?
If you can’t explain where the yield comes from, it’s hard to judge whether it’s sustainable.
I. Lending Interest: Yield Comes from Borrowers’ Cost of Funds
In decentralized lending protocols, users can deposit assets and borrow other

$ETH The primary resistance above is 2384.57 (upper Bollinger Band), while key support below is 2314.48 (lower Bollinger Band). The current price of 2350.56 is slightly below the channel midpoint. MA5=2360.18 remains above MA20=2349.52, but the price has fallen below MA5, weakening short-term momentum.
Funding is the signal that warrants the most caution right now: the funding rate is +0.0078%, and the cost of holding long positions is relatively high, indicating that leveraged funds remain skewed toward longs. Meanwhile, the 24h price change is -1.21%, diverging from the direction of funding—

#USEarningsSeason #ShareWeekly Earnings Season: What Will Drive the Next Market Trend?
The US earnings season is once again bringing corporate performance into the spotlight. Investors are paying close attention to quarterly reports to understand whether major companies can maintain their growth, protect their profit margins, and meet the expectations already reflected in their stock prices.
In my opinion, this earnings season is not just about which companies report the highest profits. It is about understanding the quality of that growth and whether businesses can continue performing well

$BTC might be setting up for another familiar move.
We’ve seen this pattern before:
Low volatility → sweep the lows → reclaim support → push toward range highs.
The real signal isn’t the breakdown. It’s whether sellers can get any follow-through after it.
$83K is the key daily-close level to watch. Reclaim it with momentum, and $87K+ comes into focus.
Not guaranteed. Let price confirm before jumping to conclusions.

Wiped out in one go
I’ve found two kinds of volatile coins
One is like $LAB
Funding rates max out every hour
Even if the market moves sideways, you still can’t take it
They still pump from time to time
The other is like $IRYS
They pump aggressively out of nowhere
Giving shorts no time to react
So stay away from volatile coins
I get taught the same lesson over and over
And still never learn #10月FOMC临近，美联储暂停加息还有哪些变数？ $IRYS

Today I received a gift box from Flap @flapdotsh
Thanks to C @eth_cedric and @irene_cc06 for the winter surprise 🥰
I was genuinely touched when I found this letter inside the gift box—“In this era full of change and uncertainty, there are always some people who still believe in the value of freedom, the power of creation, and that seemingly far-fetched ideas can one day change something”
“May we always have the courage to create and the freedom to venture into the unknown”
I've witnessed Flap's growth and transformation along the way. This is a team that keeps exploring and innovating on BSC

At 14:00, I opened the order-entry window, then closed it.
It’s not that I have no ideas; the numbers just don’t add up.
$BTC Those two volume bars at 10 PM last night: 104M and 122M.
The bar before them was only 7.2M, a fourteenfold difference.
The low was 79192.8, and the 24-hour high was 80991.5.
The entire range between the two was 2.27%.
The current price is 80525.7, 0.58% up and 1.65% down.
Get it right and make a small profit; get it wrong and take a big loss.
You don’t even need to check the direction to know this trade isn’t worth taking.

Blockchain Is Not a Magical Ledger: How Is a Transaction Verified, Recorded, and Shared?
Many people have heard of blockchain and know that it is related to Bitcoin, smart contracts, and Web3, but few truly understand how it works.
The key to blockchain is not just storing data in a block, but having multiple participants verify and record data according to shared rules, and maintain ledger consistency through specific mechanisms.
I. Understanding Blockchain Through a Single Transaction
Suppose you transfer funds to another wallet.
Step one: The transaction is initiated. The wallet uses the re
