FlippedSignal:
10 billion in revenue with a 4x growth, is this data real or... a bit suspicious?
Wait, did BitGo really make that much? Haven't heard about it before.
Goldman Sachs and Citigroup backing it up, it seems institutions are still a bit afraid of BTGO.
From 1.9 billion to 10 billion, this growth rate is too outrageous, probably some accounting tricks.
Custody business is indeed lucrative, no wonder everyone wants to go public and cut the leeks.
Ethereum core developers reviewed the 2014 vision, emphasizing the importance of building a decentralized application ecosystem. Although the vision was once blurred, underlying technology is rapidly evolving, and the usability of decentralized applications will significantly improve in the future, ushering in a new renaissance for participants.
Really, over the past few years, watching the ecosystem change from "Can it be used?" to "It's pretty good," feels completely different... In the past, when I talked to friends about DeFi, they looked confused. Now, platforms like Fileverse can really replace Google Docs. To be a bit exaggerated, it's a bit outrageous.
A well-known bearish whale significantly reduced its short positions in ETH, BTC, and SOL on January 14, decreasing its holdings by approximately $3.5 million. Currently, the BTC short position has been fully closed. Meanwhile, the whale increased its short positions in PAXG and XRP with 5x leverage and established multiple short positions in the stock market, with total holdings reaching approximately $50 million.
This whale really knows how to play. After clearing the BTC short positions, it turned around to short PAXG, betting that market sentiment has changed.
【ChainWen】Recently, a trading platform launched a new feature—the Unified Prediction Portfolio, which specifically focuses on the prediction market. The founder revealed that this is not simply an integration of existing platform products, but a native system designed from the ground up. What is the core gameplay? In simple terms, it connects product lines such as spot, leverage, lending, perpetual contracts, prediction markets, and even fiat currency. Your funds can be freely allocated across these sectors, with all assets tokenized, and risk assessments calculated uniformly. What does this mean? It means you can complete quoting and trading within the same margin account, then immediately hedge risk using perpetual contracts. No need to switch back and forth between multiple platforms, greatly improving operational efficiency. The platform itself supports full-chain network connectivity, fiat channels, and various advanced order types. From the development plan, the team intends to first verify system stability within a small scope, then gradually

Analysts are divided in their opinions—some are optimistic about future monetary easing benefiting Bitcoin, while others warn that decoupling could signal the arrival of a bear market.

BNB Chain has just completed its third technical upgrade, Fermi, which improved performance, increased block production speed by 40%, and shortened confirmation time to 1 second. This makes transaction confirmations more predictable and reduces slippage risk. The upgrade optimized validator coordination, data access, and transaction processes, enhancing the network's responsiveness.
1. Confirm in 1 second? Now traders can finally eat less slippage, those high-frequency orders were really hopeless before.
2. It seems Binance is still seriously stacking resources, from Pascal to Maxwell to Fermi. I have to give points for this naming taste.
3. Stop the flowery talk, I just want to know if the gas fees will go down...
4. The optimization of the verification mechanism is quite interesting. Finally, we don't have to curse when the network is congested. The experience should be much better.
5. Hmm... The number 1 second sounds great, but in actual scenarios, how much cheaper it really is, you have to run the test yourself to know.
6. Pascal, Maxwell, Fermi—like a chronological novel, haha. I quite like the naming style of BNB.
7. The core issue is stability. Will there be another wave of failures after the upgrade?
8. Reducing slippage is a real blessing for traders who operate on thin margins and high volume. Finally, we've waited for this.
