USDT Directly Settles U.S. Stock Options—This Move by Gate Is Very “Crypto”
With Gate’s launch of U.S. stock options this time, what I’m really paying attention to isn’t the 9 stocks, but the settlement method it chose.
The answer is: USDT cash settlement.
According to the rules published by Gate, the U.S. stock options traded by users will not involve direct delivery of stocks upon exercise. Instead, they will be settled through the cash difference, with positions ultimately settled in USDT.
This may look like a mere technical detail, but it actually has a strong “crypto market” feel.
Why?

A few days ago I was still worrying about my account, but when I checked this morning, the market pulled a reversal on me. With this kind of movement, I don't even need to think—the account is dancing on its own.
Before bed a few days ago, I went over the chart again and again. With volume so low, pushing up without volume and with no one buying at higher levels—wasn't this just handing me easy points?
The short entered in the early hours went from 0.12629 to 0.09871, +216.59%. That was a satisfying bite of profit; those who were on board should have woken up laughing. It was truly sluggish at

On the BTC 4-hour chart, after hitting a high of 81,520, bullish momentum gradually waned, and the price oscillated lower, currently quoted at 77,240.
The price has fallen below the Bollinger middle band, while the Bollinger Bands are narrowing, indicating reduced market volatility and a short-term decision window for the next direction.

#StockNewUserBonus Stock New User Bonus — A Great Opportunity for New Stock Traders
The campaign is attracting attention as Gate continues expanding its stock-trading ecosystem. For users who are new to stock trading, introductory rewards can provide an additional incentive to explore the platform and understand how stock markets work.
Why Stock Trading Is Gaining Attention
U.S. stocks remain an important part of global financial markets, with companies in technology, semiconductors, consumer services, and other sectors attracting traders and investors worldwide. Gate provides access to U.S.

The launch of options is just the beginning: will Gate continue expanding next?
Gate’s U.S. stock options have officially launched, but I think what is truly worth anticipating is not the first batch of 9 stocks.
Because judging from Gate’s product roadmap over the past year, it is clearly shifting from “adding more cryptocurrencies” to “adding more asset classes.”
This first batch of U.S. stock options covers Nvidia, Tesla, Apple, Meta, AMD, Micron, Amazon, Alphabet, and Broadcom.
These underlying assets are almost all major companies in the current U.S. technology and AI industry chain.

**With the latest drop, those still fully in long positions have not been liquidated yet, so we could see a sharp wick down to $72,000. Not much short liquidation has accumulated above, so they may slam the market down a notch using a piece of news as an excuse to liquidate the longs.
Currently;
Short liquidations; liquidity of around $17 million at $78,600 and $42.2 million at $85,400.
Long liquidations; approximately $100 million in total, concentrated in the $72,000–$73,000 range.

ETH is moving in tandem with BTC in a volatile range, repeatedly swinging around the current price of 2390. The bullish structure on the daily timeframe remains intact. After the previous sharp rally, short-term bullish momentum has clearly slowed, with multiple attempts to break higher facing resistance and retreating. A large amount of profit-taking has gradually been realized, and the market has entered a phase of high-level digestion and consolidation, with no new one-way rally emerging for now.

On the 4-hour timeframe, the price is fluctuating below the short-term moving averages, while

I’ve been watching $T after its sharp breakout from the 0.0035 area. Even after the initial surge, price is still holding comfortably above the EMA200, which suggests the trend remains intact.
The rejection from 0.0062 triggered some profit-taking, but buyers continue defending the 0.0050 zone. If T can reclaim the recent high, momentum could accelerate again.
For now, this looks more like consolidation after a strong move rather than a breakdown. The key is whether bulls can turn 0.0050 into support and build for the next leg higher

Ethereum is moving weakly within a low range today and has not followed BTC in expanding its decline. After testing the 2380 support several times intraday, it showed a recovery and is currently at 2391, holding the lower edge of the previous high-volume trading platform and demonstrating independent resilience. Unlike BTC’s systematic decline driven by macro liquidity and gold’s trend breakdown under interest-rate pressure, ETH’s adjustment mainly stems from concentrated deleveraging among futures longs combined with short-term profit-taking. There has been no panic selling in the spot market
