Author: Lin, Trader Compiled by: Felix, PANews Trader Lin recently shared his trading insights, including technical analysis, risk management, psychological factors, and more, suitable for novice traders or those who frequently incur losses. Below are the details. Follow the Trend A strong upward trend can often bring substantial profits. You should always trade in the direction of the trend. As the old saying goes, “The trend is your friend.” This is absolutely true. Investing is a game of probabilities. Therefore, you need to maximize your chances of winning. Buying stocks in an uptrend is like sailing with the wind; everything feels easier. The market rises faster, lasts longer, and progress becomes more effortless. When sailing with the wind, even small pushes can lead to huge gains. That’s why everyone feels like a genius during a bull market. So, how do you identify a trend? Identifying the direction of a trend generally

The ripple effects of this news at the beginning of 2026 have far exceeded what is visible on the surface — Morgan Stanley officially submitted applications for multi-asset ETFs for Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana to regulatory authorities. This is not just another announcement of a Wall Street giant entering the cryptocurrency space, but a prelude to a profound technological transformation. When traditional financial institutions managing trillions of dollars attempt to incorporate blockchain-based assets into their rigorous financial systems, they face not policy barriers but deeper technological gaps. Every layer of existing financial infrastructure — from custody settlement to risk management, from audit tracking to compliance monitoring — requires a fundamental overhaul to accommodate the unique properties of cryptocurrencies. This seemingly financial sector game is actually catalyzing an infrastructure-level technological revolution. Source: The Wall Street Journal Custody system's

The anonymous coin project Zcash (ZEC) once plummeted by 28%, causing a shock to the market. This decline was not due to macroeconomic factors but resulted from a serious governance collapse within the project's core development company, Electric Coin Company (ECC). According to industry reports on the 8th (local time), all members of ECC's management and core development team have expressed their intention to resign. They have long-standing irreconcilable differences with the Bootstrap board of the Zcash Foundation, which ultimately led to this rare collective resignation. ◇ Non-technical dispute, essentially a "dominance" game... Conflict over development direction The core reason for this incident is not technical flaws or failure to maintain the price, but disagreements over the project's "control" and "development direction." It is reported that, especially regarding wallet strategies and the implementation approach of the privacy-first roadmap, ECC

The era of encrypted Twitter as a market coordination mechanism is coming to an end. The once unified cultural system that could transform narratives into capital flows has gradually become ineffective, with rules of the game industrialized, profit distribution becoming more extreme, attention spans dispersing, and the market entering the post-encrypted Twitter era. This article is based on a piece by Lauris, organized, translated, and written by Deep潮 TechFlow.

Article by: KarenZ, Foresight News On January 6, the index giant MSCI (MSCI Inc.) issued an announcement that brought a glimmer of hope to the beleaguered digital asset treasury company (DAT): in the upcoming index review in February 2026, MSCI has decided not to proceed with the proposal to remove it from the Global Investable Market Index (GIMI). This means that companies listed on the observation list due to holding large amounts of digital assets like Bitcoin will temporarily retain their positions in MSCI indices. However, MSCI also announced a series of restrictive measures and plans to initiate broader consultations on all "non-operational companies" to comprehensively review how non-operational companies are handled in the indices. MSCI defines "non-operational companies" as those that treat digital assets and other non-operational assets as

Author | Momir @IOSG The altcoin market has experienced its most difficult period this year. To understand why, we need to go back to decisions made a few years ago. The funding bubble of 2021-2022 fueled a wave of projects that raised large amounts of money. Now, these projects are issuing tokens, leading to a fundamental problem: a massive supply flooding the market, while demand remains scarce. The issue is not just oversupply; even more concerning is that the mechanism causing this problem has remained largely unchanged to this day. Projects continue to issue tokens regardless of whether there is a market for their products, treating token issuance as an inevitable step rather than a strategic choice. As venture capital dries up and primary market investments shrink, many teams see token issuance as the only fundraising channel or a way to create exit opportunities for insiders. This article will analyze the "Four Losses Dilemma" that is dismantling the altcoin market, examine why past repair mechanisms have failed, and propose possible pathways for rebalancing. 1

Law enforcement agencies successfully tracking Bitcoin ransom funds are often depicted as a victory of blockchain transparency over the underground economy. However, this triumphant picture may conceal a more critical turning point: the victory only sweeps the surface of technological innovation, forcing dark activities to undergo a brutal evolutionary filter. Low-tech crimes are pushed out of the cryptocurrency space, as mentioned in the dialogue, they retreat back into the gift card and cash worlds. What truly remains and upgrades are new participants capable of encoding illegal intentions into complex financial protocol logic. What we are witnessing is not the end of crime, but a fundamental shift in its form from “avoiding surveillance” to “manipulating rules.” When every transaction is exposed to the sunlight, the focus of the game shifts from how to hide to how to construct an indeterminate financial behavior under the watchful eyes of all. The next battlefield will move from blockchain explorers to intelligent systems.

In 2025, GameFi funding sharply declined to approximately $232 million, with a failure rate of 80%. Funds and players are gradually shifting towards the Web2.5 model that emphasizes gameplay.

The Bloomberg report stated that Larian is integrating generative AI technology into the development process of the new game, using it to enhance presentation content, develop concept art, and write scripts.

Written by: Zhang Feng Under the dual pressure of information explosion and trust crisis, the concept of "Staked Media" proposed by a16z acts like a powerful booster shot, attempting to reshape media credibility through blockchain technology and economic games. The core logic of this idea is clear and enticing: media outlets or individuals stake a certain amount of cryptocurrency before publishing content; if the content is falsified, the assets are forfeited; if it is truthful and accurate, the staked assets are returned and possibly rewarded. This model combines economic incentives with fact verification, aiming to build an ecosystem where "telling the truth is more profitable." However, when we delve into the complexity and social nature of truth production in media, we find that relying solely on smart contract-based staking and on-chain arbitration is far from sufficient to solve the century-old trust issues in media. 1. Staking Mechanism: An Idealized Game Design From a game theory perspective...

By 2025, the market capitalization of stablecoins will surpass 300 billion USD, with institutions predicting it will reach 2 trillion USD in the future.

Author: Lin Wanwan's Cat On the night of the 2024 US presidential election, a French trader netted $85 million on Polymarket. This figure exceeds the annual performance of most hedge funds. Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market that has processed over $9 billion in trading volume and hosts 314,000 active traders, is redefining the boundaries of "voting with money." But we must first be honest: prediction markets are a zero-sum game. Only 0.51% of wallets on Polymarket achieved profits exceeding $1,000. So, what exactly did the winners do right? Recently, I wrote a series of strategies and have been systematically backtracking and analyzing 86 million on-chain transactions, Deconstructing the holding logic and entry/exit timing of top traders, Summarizing six proven profitable strategies.

Most traders fail not because they lack methods or information, but because they don't understand the essence of trading. Trading is not about prediction or seeking certainty, but about executing plans within a probabilistic environment. This article will analyze the core concepts of "Trading Psychology Analysis" and reveal why trading is a pattern recognition game in numbers. The article is based on an essay by AsymTrading, organized, compiled, and written by Foresight News. (Background recap: Funding rates become a money tree! A trader shorted Bitcoin for two months and made a floating profit of $12.5 million, earning $9.6 million just from funding fees) (Additional background: An 80% asset drawdown is not the end!

This article explores the nature of trading, emphasizing that trading is not about predicting the future but about recognizing patterns and executing plans effectively amidst uncertainty. The market is a probabilistic environment, and success requires emotional neutrality and discipline. Traders need to focus on probabilities over the long term rather than single outcomes. Douglas's core idea is that trading is a numbers game, and profits are achieved by repeatedly executing trades that align with probabilistic advantages.

AI technology is rapidly reshaping the overall landscape of the digital economy, leading major companies in related industries to launch new strategies. The technological competition among leading representatives such as NVIDIA(NVDA), OpenAI, and Google(GOOGL) is expected to continue into next year. Of particular note, NVIDIA is working to defend its dominance in the AI semiconductor field, for example, by advancing a technology licensing agreement worth $20 billion (approximately 28.8 trillion Korean won) with AI inference chip startup Groq. Google's release of the Gemini model and OpenAI's attempt at advertising business both indicate that competition in this market has gone beyond simple model performance comparisons and is evolving into a strategic game involving the overall structure of enterprises. The initial public offering(IPO) market is also beginning to activate. AI chip manufacturer Cerebras Systems and Google's parent company Alphabet(GOOGL

Author: Jae, PANews When the governance benchmark of the DeFi market collides with real-world commercial interests, a brutal game of "who is the master" is unfolding inside the top lending protocol Aave. As the leader in the DeFi market, Aave manages approximately $34 billion in assets and is regarded as a model of on-chain governance. However, by December 2025, Aave found itself in its most severe trust crisis since its founding 8 years ago. This controversy was not accidental. The initial spark was a seemingly minor front-end fee distribution, but it unexpectedly triggered a domino effect. Through a series of key events and layers of catalysis, the lending giant Aave was ultimately thrust into the spotlight. This is not just a simple dispute over profit sharing; it has torn open a gap, exposing the most fundamental and sensitive dispute in the DeFi space: in decentralization

The US ETF market in 2025 set a historic "triple crown" record, with a net capital inflow of up to $1.4 trillion, over 1,100 new products launched, and a total trading volume of $57.9 trillion. However, beneath this prosperity, the crypto asset ETFs are experiencing a fierce rotation of funds. Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs faced significant outflows in December, totaling over $1.1 billion; in stark contrast, newly launched XRP and Solana ETFs continued to attract funds, with XRP ETF setting an astonishing record of 28 consecutive trading days of net inflows. This phenomenon clearly indicates that beyond the grand narrative of ETFs, institutional investors are becoming more and more selective, shifting their focus from mere "digital gold" to crypto assets with clear regulation and real-world utility. The structural shift in the market may have quietly begun.

The second-largest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume globally, Bybit, announced that to comply with Japanese financial regulations, it will restrict Japanese residents from using the platform starting next year. Bybit has not specified which features or services will be affected, but stated that affected users will receive further notifications and explanations as the restrictions are gradually implemented. Japan has long been known for its strictest cryptocurrency regulatory environment in the world. Any exchange operating in this East Asian economy must pass rigorous scrutiny and register with the Financial Services Agency (FSA), while also complying with regulations related to customer protection, asset segregation, and anti-money laundering. Under this "non-compliance means out" game rule, offshore platforms that fail to meet standards often have no choice but to withdraw from the market in silence. Moreover, Japan's regulatory "tightening" measures are still ongoing. Authorities are currently planning to require domestic exchanges to allocate a "responsibility reserve fund" to prepare for potential .

As the end of 2025 approaches, Wall Street renowned analyst Tom Lee has once again issued a bullish forecast, believing that Bitcoin's price still has the potential to break through the $100,000 mark before the end of the year. However, the current market faces two major substantive resistances: the Chaikin Money Flow indicator, which tracks large capital movements, remains negative, indicating that institutional capital is still flowing out; at the same time, the daily average selling volume of long-term Bitcoin holders has surged by 185% over the past month, soaring from approximately 97,800 coins per day to nearly 279,000 coins, creating ongoing selling pressure. Analysis indicates that in the absence of new capital inflows, the only realistic path to push Bitcoin past $100,000 is to trigger a large-scale short squeeze. This requires the price to first break through a key resistance zone near $97,200, thereby triggering up to $3.41 billion in short leverage liquidations. The success or failure of this forecast no longer depends on fundamental narratives but is purely a game of longs and shorts in the derivatives market.
