How You'll Lose Crypto in 2026: Scheme Classification, Typical Cases, and How to Avoid Being Next
We present to you a longread: a detailed guide to cryptocurrency security with expert commentary.
In 2025, the crypto market lost over $1.8 billion due to fraud and exploits, according to Chainalysis, and these are just the reported cases.
Most losses were not due to hacks, but to social engineering. Typically, thefts are now carried out not by brute-force attacks, but by persuasion.
A distinct feature of crypto is that there is no turning back. There is no support hotline, and it is impossible to

⚡️ Weekly Energy Update, A Major Cost Shift for TRON Users
Energy just became significantly cheaper, and that changes the game.
The Energy Rental base rate on JustLendDAO has been reduced from 15% → 8%, lowering transaction costs and making on-chain activity more efficient for builders, traders, and everyday users.
🔋 Current Energy pricing:
100,000 Energy = 5.02 TRX/day or 50 SUN/day
Lower energy costs mean:
• More efficient smart contract interactions
• Reduced operational expenses for DeFi users
• Better capital efficiency across the ecosystem
• Stronger incentives to stay active on-chain

#btc still needs further correction, not yet at the next level.. still standard and keep monitoring whether it will be like the final stage

It is said that someone is planning to report this token to the SEC, and things might escalate...
I suspect that person is a whale short seller who suffered huge losses.
Do you think the market maker will hit a brick wall this time...
Looking at the data, in the past 24 hours, POWER has accumulated over 15 million USD in short positions.
This is simply an astronomical number; many altcoins' entire contract funds are not even this large.
The longs are not doing much better. Although the market seems to be overwhelmingly bearish, at the same time, there have been over 1 million USD in long posit

Bitcoin Dominance: Warning or Normal Rotation?
$BTC.D is shaping up like a potential Head & Shoulders — but patterns mean nothing without confirmation.
Remember: Bitcoin dominance tracks capital allocation, not price direction.
A drop in BTC.D doesn’t automatically mean Bitcoin is bearish — it often signals capital rotating into alts.
Historically, dominance falls during:
• Late expansion phases (altcoin rotation)
• Transitional leadership shifts
The structure only matters if we see a confirmed breakdown and acceptance below the neckline on higher timeframes. Until then, it’s just potential.

$ETH /USDT is back in action and it looks strong ⚡️
Price is around 2,063 and up about +5.5% today. The 24h range is wide and active: low 1,952.26 and high 2,148.00 — that’s a serious move for ETH, not a small bounce.
On the chart, ETH built from the bottom near 1,796, climbed steadily, then exploded into 2,148. After that spike, it pulled back and started moving sideways around 2,060–2,080, which usually means the market is cooling down, not collapsing.
Important levels to watch now:
2,148 is the top. If ETH breaks and holds above it, the next push can be fast.
2,080–2,100 is the near resista

Genuinely curious if anyone knows what shady stuff is going on with $ARC / @arcdotfun
I was already surprised by how well it had been performing lately. Despite a pretty weak market, it kept massively outperforming and did a clean 3–4x in about a month, seemingly for no real reason.
Now it’s down like -80% overnight, with absurd volumes of nearly $400M, which is roughly 10x its entire fully diluted valuation.
This is obviously heavily manipulated.
What I always wonder is: why do value extractors make it so blatant? Why not at least try to make it look organic?
So who are we blaming for this

Still aligns with my expectation of a $50 pork rice bowl. The community hasn't received much, except for alpha and IPOs which have selling pressure. I don't know if it will push the price up to explode PM. The 400M people participating in IPOs haven't broken even yet.
