Why You Should NEVER Trade When You’re Bored 🤨 Boredom trades are some of the most expensive trades you will ever make. When you are bored, you are not looking for good setups. You are looking for stimulation. That mindset pushes you into random positions, forcing trades, chasing noise, and convincing yourself that “something is better than nothing.” It never is. 🧠 Many traders lose money because they can’t sit still. When there is no clear direction, yet the urge to “do something” takes over. You open a position with no edge, no plan, and no real reason. Later you ask yourself why you even entered and start begging to break even. 🎮 This is also why videogames are pretty popular among many successful crypto traders I know. Games give their brain the stimulation it is looking for without putting money at risk. They keep your hands off the exchange during hours when you feel restless and tempted to click buttons. Many traders would save a lot of money by simply distracting themselves instead of forcing a trade. If you’re bored, step away, go outside, literally do anything that keeps you from opening positions you don’t actually believe in. Trust me, this will save you money ‼️ #FAQ @CoinPost

Bitcoin has been bleeding ever since the October 6 all time high. On the 1D chart the entire move has formed a clean falling wedge and both the daily and 4 hour RSI hit 30, which tells you the market is stretched and tired 😣 📉 The real driver is outside crypto. US tech stocks took a hit after traders started doubting a December rate cut and crypto moves almost one to one with big tech. When equities get punched in the face, Bitcoin usually flinches too. So the only thing worth tracking here is relative strength. If BTC starts showing some life this weekend while stocks stay weak, it opens the door for a wedge breakout and maybe even another run at new highs. If it keeps lagging and tech keeps sliding, then we might already be sitting at the front door of a proper crypto bear market and that story ends badly for nearly every altcoin on the board 🤔

There's a very rare chart pattern on the BTC/USD today. The price action is absolutely nasty 🤣

What is a Crypto P2P Triangle Scam? 💻 A P2P triangle scam is a fraud where a scammer uses you as a payment middleman. You think you are doing a normal P2P trade. The victim thinks they are buying a product. In reality, you are receiving money from the victim and sending crypto to the scammer. How the scam works step by step 👇 1️⃣The scammer posts a fake product ad, for example an iPhone at a very low price. 2️⃣The victim agrees to buy and asks for payment details. 3️⃣The scammer goes to a P2P exchange and opens a buy order with you. Instead of paying you, the scammer gives the victim your bank details. 4️⃣The victim sends money to your bank account, believing it is payment for the product. 5️⃣You see the money, think it is from your P2P counterparty, and release crypto to the scammer. 6️⃣The scammer disappears. The victim gets no product. You are the one the bank or police calls, because your account received the money. 👉 How to avoid it: Only accept payments from accounts under the buyer’s verified name. If funds come from an unknown sender, don’t release crypto and contact support. Trade only with verified users who have long histories of trades and many completed orders ❗️ #FAQ @CoinPost

Crypto Fear & Greed Index just crashed to 14 — Extreme Fear. The lowest since April 😱 Historically, this level of panic has marked strong buy zones. But context matters. Extreme fear can last for months while prices keep sliding. It’s not a guaranteed bottom — it’s a warning that sentiment is at its lowest point. 💸 This is the kind of environment where patient investors quietly build positions while everyone else runs for the exits. But timing still matters. Watch liquidity, funding rates, and momentum before acting. @CoinPost

Bybit’s security lab found that 16 blockchains can freeze user funds, and 19 more could enable it with minor code changes. Many of these networks sell decentralization but hide centralized switches inside their systems. 🔍 BNB Chain, VeChain, and XDC have hardcoded blacklists built into their core software. Harmony, Sui, and Waves use validator config files that can be quietly changed. Huobi Eco Chain relies on smart contracts to stop transfers when someone decides it’s “necessary” 🤔 😂 If a blockchain can decide who moves money and who doesn’t, it’s not decentralized. It’s just a database with good branding. @CoinPost

The POPCAT memecoin, which has a market capitalization of $132 million, fell 44% in just 30 minutes 🔽 This quick dump appears to have been caused by manipulation intended to rob the Hyperliquid Liquidity Provider vault, which held a significant long position on this coin at the time. 🫡 As a result of this, the Hyperliquidity Provider lost $5 million in just 15 minutes. Exchange paused deposits and withdrawals on Arbitrum for maintenance right after this. @CoinPost

Perhaps we went too far with mass adoption 😂

There are around 57.3 million people in the world worth over $1 million 💸 Now imagine at least half of them wanting to own just 1 Bitcoin to flex on their rich friends. They couldn’t. Because there will never be more than 21 million BTC. 📉 And the real supply is even smaller. Around 3.5–4 million BTC are lost forever. That's lost wallets, forgotten keys, Satoshi holdings, deaths. 📈 Meanwhile, the number of dollars (and millionaires) keeps growing. Why? Because the denominator — the dollar — keeps losing value. So you have an infinite supply of dollars chasing a finite and shrinking supply of BTC 🪙 What happens when infinity meets scarcity? The price goes up. Forever @CoinPost

A Bitcoin mining farm in Inner Mongolia went offline because stray cats, drawn to the warmth, were blocking the cooling systems 🥺 The amount of heat generated by mining farms is actually insane. I know a guy who saves on heating costs in the winter by strategically placing mining machines in his house 🟠☀️

🇪🇺 The European Union confirmed that cash payments above €10,000 will be banned, every crypto transfer over €1,000 will require full ID, and privacy coins like Monero, Zcash, and Dash will disappear from all regulated platforms. The goal, they say, is “transparency.” What it really does is end the idea of anonymous finance inside the EU 🇬🇧 At the same time, the Bank of England proposed a £20,000 cap on how much stablecoin any individual can hold. The reason given is to “protect banks” from losing deposits as people move into digital money. In practice, it limits your ability to exit the system when the system itself feels unsafe 👀 The trend is clear. They will not stop until every transaction is tracked, every wallet tagged, every alternative cut off. Privacy and autonomy are treated as threats, not rights. @CoinPost

Coinbase has announced the launch of its ICO platform, which will enable projects to conduct token sales 🌀 😮 The first project to be launched on this new platform is the highly anticipated Monad blockchain. The token sale is scheduled for 17 Nov. More details can be found in their announcement. 7.5% of the $MON supply is going to be sold at $2.5 billion valuation. Right now, this token is trading at $5.4 billion in the pre-market. So, you could get more than 2x on your investment through this ICO. It's definitely worth getting involved 💰 @CoinPost

The situation for the average consumer in the U.S. is getting worse and worse 📉 Trump wants to fix housing with 50-year mortgages. The logic is simple: smaller monthly payments so more people can “afford” homes. But it results in lifetime debt. 🧮 Let’s do the math: Average U.S. home: $512,000, down payment (20%): $102,000, loan: $409,600, rate: 7% fixed, term: 50 years: ➕ Monthly payment ≈ $2,770 ➕ Total paid ≈ $1.66 million ➕ Interest ≈ $1.25 million Let's say you are 30 years old now and want to buy a house. You’ll pay the bank three times for the same house and still own it fully only at 80 At the same time here is what people think of the economy: 🔴Consumer sentiment index is lowest in 30 years, that's worse than during the 2008 financial crisis. 🔴53% of Americans say their finances are getting worse 🔴Recession in 2026 odds: ≈40–45% People feel poorer, and the data agrees. Society is quietly accepting that upward mobility is dead. When you can’t buy a home or build savings, you either revolt, vote for politicians who promise miracles like communists, or gamble. That’s why populism rises. And that’s why crypto is here to stay. Because most people treat it as a big digital casino 🎰 @CoinPost

Reasons to be bearish 🐻 If you want to make money, you need to focus on facts. What happened, what’s likely to happen, and what probably won’t. The market doesn’t care about your feelings or hopes. 🤔 To be objective, always ask yourself, what if I’m wrong? Even if you’re bullish, search for reasons to be bearish to avoid bias. Here are three recent developments worth noting 👇 1️⃣Hedge funds are shorting at the fastest pace since April, especially in tech. Goldman Sachs data shows aggressive de-risking even as indexes hover near highs. Big funds are clearly hedging against weaker earnings or a revaluation of overpriced growth stocks. 2️⃣Michael Burry, the man behind “The Big Short,” placed 80% of his portfolio in puts against Nvidia and Palantir. His view is that AI might be real, but valuations aren’t. When someone who predicted 2008 bets this heavily on a correction, it’s worth noting. 3️⃣Warren Buffett is sitting on a record $381B in cash while selling stocks. When the world’s most famous and patient investor refuses to buy, it’s not bullish. He’s clearly waiting for better prices and a reset. All this is happening while crypto moves in lockstep with U.S. equities and often underperforms. If the AI narrative breaks and the S&P corrects, crypto won’t be spared 🔽 @CoinPost

It was a brutal week for DeFi. First came the Balancer V2 hack, and now the domino effect from the crash of stablecoins like DEUSD, XUSD, ASUSD and USDX has sent shockwaves across the sector 🔽 😫 These tokens were deemed as “safe” yield-bearing stables, but behind the scenes they leaked. One protocol borrowed ~65 % of its collateral into its own yield loop, other protocols lended money to it for those loops, losses piled up, redemptions froze and the pegs collapsed. ❗️ If you’re in DeFi, now is the time to withdraw from risky protocols with even partial exposure to these projects due to increased systemic risk. Better safe than sorry

Another hundreds of millions of dollars' worth of Bitcoin have been permanently removed from circulation 😮 A man once jailed for identity theft claimed the FBI accidentally erased his fortune, a hard drive holding over 3,400 BTC, now worth around $345 million. 👮‍♂️ When he was released and asked for the drive back, the FBI had already wiped it as part of routine evidence handling. He sued, saying they destroyed his private keys, but the court didn’t buy it. Judges pointed out that he’d previously reported owning only about $1,500 in Bitcoin 🪙 By the time he tried to reclaim his supposed treasure, it was too late, and the court said even if the coins existed, he’d already given up any right to them 🫡 So, what can we learn from this? Self-custody alone is not enough. Secure your wallet with a seed phrase and have multiple trusted backups that you hide where no one could find them @CoinPost

How to Use Zcash Privately 🟠 Zcash has two address types. Transparent (T) addresses work like Bitcoin and show all details onchain. Shielded (Z) addresses hide the sender, receiver, and amount while keeping the transaction valid. 💻 The blockchain still verifies every shielded transaction through zk-SNARKs, a cryptographic system that proves coins are valid and not double spent without exposing any information. Modern upgrades such as Sapling and Orchard made shielded payments faster and removed the need for trusted setups. Zcash also supports view keys that let someone verify payments without giving them spending access. 💸 How to make a private payment using $ZEC: 1️⃣Use a wallet that supports shielded addresses (Sapling or Orchard). Try "Zashi", "YWallet" or "ZecWallet". 2️⃣Get a shielded or unified address from the recipient. 3️⃣If your ZEC is from an exchange, move it to your shielded address first. 4️⃣Send from Z to Z for full privacy. 5️⃣Avoid sending to T-addresses if you want to stay anonymous (T stands for 'transparent'). 6️⃣Share a view key only when you must prove a payment. #FAQ

Stable Pre-Deposit Phase 2 starts today at 14:00 UTC 🤑 Stable is a new L1 blockchain focused on fast and cheap transactions with USDT. Think of it as “Plasma blockchain but built with a focus on USDT.” The project has raised over $28M. Today, at 14:00 UTC (in two hours), Stable launches the second phase of its Pre-Deposit campaign on Hourglass ⏳ Users can deposit USDC (Ethereum) to get early allocation and potential future rewards just like what happened with Plasma pre-deposit. 📋 Rules: 🟢First-come, first-served 🟢Deposit: USDC (Ethereum network) 🟢Min: $1,000 / Max: $100,000 🟢Hard Cap: $500M 🟢KYC starts 24h after launch and must be completed by Nov 8 Note The first round filled instantly with $825M before public launch. Expect this one to get filled very fast too ❗️ In my opinion it's a no-brainer, if you can, you should try to deposit some stables in this round @CoinPost

MANIPULATION MASTERCLASS: How people get rekt after receiving "free gibs" 🔍 Project airdrops $MMT tokens to eligible wallets but locks 90% of airdrop into veMMT until Nov 11. Most recipients understand that this is a worthless token and price will probably go down before Nov 11 so they hedge by shorting perps on CEXs. 🔼 Then the classic manipulated pump happens. Price explodes 1,066% liquidating around $100M in shorts. 🔽 After the squeeze we get dump and price collapses roughly 84% back down within a day. Lesson for traders. Free airdrops are not free if large portions are locked and insiders or whales can coordinate flow ❗️ @CoinPost

People get used to things too quickly 🤣 There was a time when the idea of BTC going above $10k was laughable. Then, we all celebrated when BTC hit $100k. Now, people cry and lose money when BTC drops to $100k. Come on, guys. Just buy spot when everyone says that crypto is dead, and hold for a few years 🟠
