Recently, I noticed that BlackRock transferred a significant amount of BTC and ETH to a professional custody platform. Specifically, 1,814 BTC (approximately $114.66 million) and nearly 25,000 ETH ($192837465657483.91T) within a few hours. The total is nearly $159 million in a single transfer. This is a quite notable move from one of the world's largest investment funds. It seems that major institutions continue to accumulate crypto during this period.

If you're new to the crypto world, it can feel like stepping into a foreign country. Full of unfamiliar abbreviations, strange slang that can leave you out of the loop if you don't understand. Today, I will help you decode the 28 most common terms in the crypto community, so you can confidently join discussions without feeling lost.
Starting with the most confusing names. NGMI, IYKYK, BTD — if you see these words and don't know what they mean, you're not alone. Let's explore each one.
APE or APING is when someone sees a new token or NFT launch and rushes to buy without doing proper research. I

I've just realized that many new crypto enthusiasts are still unclear about the concept of lowcap coins. Actually, this is quite important if you want to find potential opportunities in the market.
Simply put, lowcap coins are tokens with a market capitalization under $50 million. They usually have relatively low prices, low 24-hour trading volume, and limited liquidity. But this is what makes them attractive — because the potential for price increases can be quite significant if you choose correctly.
Before going deeper, you need to understand what Market Cap is. It’s calculated by multiplyin

I just learned about Aelf and find it quite interesting. If you're also wondering what elf is, I can give a brief explanation.
Aelf is essentially a decentralized cloud computing platform designed to handle complex business requirements. The cool part is that it uses a multi-chain parallel processing architecture, significantly improving performance. Additionally, the system supports cross-chain communication and self-governance.
What makes elf different? Aelf introduces three main innovations: first, scalable nodes deployed on a cluster of computers; second, resource isolation for smart contr

I just realized an interesting thing about how cryptocurrency is changing — decentralized exchanges are no longer something too unfamiliar. Instead of depositing funds into a centralized platform and hoping they protect it, now you can trade directly from your wallet via blockchain. That’s a big difference.
From the early days, exchanges have always been the bridge between buyers and sellers, helping the market agree on prices. In the past, centralized exchanges dominated completely. But as blockchain technology developed, developers started creating tools that could do similar things without

I see that many newcomers to crypto often make a common mistake: trading without an exit plan. This market is extremely volatile, and if you don't set up stop-loss and take-profit orders in advance, it's easy to be driven by emotions, leading to unnecessary losses or missed profits.
I'll share how I manage risk whenever I trade. The main tools I use are stop-loss and take-profit orders—these two are simple but extremely effective if used correctly.
First is the stop-loss. This is an automatic order to sell when the price drops to a certain level, helping you limit losses. For example, if I buy

Recently, I've seen many people talking about AriChain (ARI), but what exactly is ari that makes it so hot? After a quick look, it's a new Layer 1 blockchain claiming to have a speed of 300,000 TPS—much faster than Solana (65,000 TPS) or Ethereum. This sounds promising, but we still need to wait and see how it performs in reality.
According to analyses, ARI was launched via an ICO in early April 2025 at a price of around $0.05-$0.50. If everything goes smoothly, the price could rise to $1-2 in the first month, then $10-20 after a year. Some optimistic predictions even suggest $200-400 after fi

I just realized that understanding how to read candlestick charts is the most important thing if you want to trade effectively. It’s completely different from traditional bar charts — more visual and easier to interpret.
Candlestick charts consist of individual candles, each showing price action within a specific time frame. When you look at them, you'll see the opening price, closing price, highest, and lowest within that period. This helps you grasp the trend and potential reversal points.
Each candlestick has three main parts. First is the body — created by the opening and closing prices. I

I just realized that Bitcoin mining nowadays is no longer the exclusive domain of those with high-end setups. With the development of modern Bitcoin mining applications, everyone has the opportunity to participate in this market.
A few years ago, if you wanted to mine Bitcoin, you had to invest tens of thousands of dollars in specialized hardware, consume a lot of electricity, and have deep technical knowledge. But now, that's different. Bitcoin mining applications have democratized the entire process.
Basically, Bitcoin is created through a process called mining—miners compete to solve comple

Recently, I've noticed many newcomers in crypto asking about Long and Short, so I want to share some basic understanding. Actually, when you step into the trading world, these two concepts will appear constantly, and understanding long and short orders is the foundation to avoid continuous losses.
First, I'll explain about Position—the so-called trading stance. Simply put, it’s the state of holding a certain currency pair in the market. There are two main positions: long position and short position. When you open a long position, you buy a currency pair with the expectation that the price will

I just noticed Swipe (SXP) in the watchlist. A few days ago, I saw some fluctuations, so I looked into what Swipe is and why people are interested.
From what I found, Swipe is a decentralized Layer 1 blockchain focused on peer-to-peer payments. It is managed by a DAO with an authorization system from validators, and SXP is the native token used for transactions and staking. This structure is quite interesting compared to many other projects.
The cool thing is that Swipe seems to be focusing on interoperability and governance, which the crypto community is expecting. But looking at the current

When do you always hear about Entry, Stop Loss, Take Profit but don't really understand how they work? Especially when starting to get familiar with forex or trading on Gate.
What is Entry? Simply put, it’s the price point where you decide to enter a buy or sell order. When you open a position at that price and then close it at the same price, you break even. It sounds simple, but choosing the right Entry is a skill that needs to be practiced.
But just having an Entry isn’t enough. You need to know how to protect your account. That’s where Stop Loss comes in. Stop Loss, also called SL – cuttin

I just realized that many people in the crypto community are not familiar with common slang terms. Actually, our cryptocurrency dictionary is quite rich and quirky.
Starting with Hopium — this is a combination of hope (hope) and opium (opium). It describes the unrealistic optimism that investors often have when they believe in a certain token regardless of what others say. Like "I know this altcoin will be the next Bitcoin" — that’s hopium.
But when reality doesn’t meet expectations, what is Copium? Copium also comes from opium, but combined with cope (cope). What is copium? It’s how disappoin

I've just realized that many people still confuse Layer 1 and Layer 2 in crypto, so today I want to give a quick explanation to help everyone understand better.
Let's start with Layer 1. This is the main blockchain, the foundation on which everything is built. Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Cardano, Avalanche... are all independent Layer 1 blockchains with their own networks. The advantage is that they operate completely autonomously, with high security because each has its own validation system (PoW or PoS). But the disadvantages are also clear — when the network gets congested, transaction fees

I have just compiled a list of the best finance movies that everyone should watch at least once. Starting with The Big Short (2015) – this film really impresses with its easy-to-understand explanation of how a group of investors bet against the US mortgage market collapse.
If you want to gain a deeper understanding of the 2008 crisis, then Inside Job (2010) is a must-watch finance documentary. It delves into the true causes behind what happened, not just the surface but also the internal details.
The Wolf of Wall Street (2013) offers a different perspective – it tells the story of a stockbroke

I just realized that many people misunderstand what closing a position means when trading cryptocurrencies. It’s not always as simple as just selling!
So, what does closing a position actually mean? It’s the act of ending an open trade you’re holding. But the interesting part is that it depends on the type of trade you’re doing. If you buy long (long), then closing the position = selling. But if you sell short (short), then closing the position = buying back. These are two completely different actions!
There are three main types of closing a position that I often encounter. First is active clo

Have you ever heard traders talk about a "bullish market" or a "bearish situation" and not understood what they mean? 😄 Today I will decode this animal story for you.
An interesting thing is that when you enter the trading world, you'll constantly hear these words. Bullish and bearish—sounds unfamiliar, but they actually originate from animals.
Let's start with the Bull. When a bull charges, it lifts its horns upward from below; this image symbolizes prices going up. So when the market is bullish, it means everyone expects prices to rise, and that's a positive signal.
Conversely, the Bear—whe

If you want to gain a deeper understanding of the financial world and the crises on Wall Street, financial movies are an excellent choice. I’ve just compiled a list of 6 movies that I find very worth watching.
Starting with The Wolf of Wall Street (2013), this film tells the story of a stockbroker living a luxurious life full of illegal ambitions. The story revolves around illegal stock transactions, corruption, and government intervention until everything collapses.
You might not know about the documentary Inside Job (2010), which delves into the root causes of the 2008 financial crisis. Very

The altcoin market is experiencing exciting fluctuations. A few weeks ago, PEPE drew attention with a strong breakout, but now the market has stabilized. Currently, GUN, PEPE, and other meme coins are in a correction phase, with PEPE around $0.00 and the market cap at $1.43B. Interestingly, capital flow is no longer just into meme coins.
Looking broader, 2026 is shaping up to be the year of altcoins. Bitcoin is now at $67.34K, making way for other coins to compete. SOL, IMX, and FIL all show positive recovery with slight gains over the past 24 hours. Transaction fees on Solana remain ultra-che
