No because other DeFi protocols (Instadapp, DeFi Saver, ParaSwap, etc…) use AAVE flash loans for things like leverage management and collateral swaps. It’s one of the primary functions of a lending market. The problem is that AAVE pools everyone’s collateral. Let’s say you supply ETH and I supply a far riskier asset. My collateral gets exploited or frozen, so AAVE can’t sell it and they end up with bad debt. That bad debt is now your bad debt too even though you had nothing to do with my bad collateral. My bad collateral is contagious because it was mixed with yours. This is exactly what happened with the Kelp DAO hack and nobody could withdraw from AAVE for weeks until they got bailed out and balanced their books. Other lending markets isolate collateral so that can’t happen. If you lend ETH the only thing that you have to worry about is other people’s ETH. There’s no contagion risk. You don’t have to worry about collateral that can be frozen, depeg, or disappear in a bridge hack.

**In 20 minutes on October 29, hackers drained $6.36 billion from Binance across 10 blockchains—more than four times the 2025 Bybit hack and six times larger than Saddam Hussein's $1B Central Bank of Iraq heist.** And they did it without leaking a single private key. What happened over the next 60 minutes was the ultimate live stress test of the entire digital asset ecosystem: * **The Signing Hijack:** Attackers compromised a DevOps laptop and signing pipeline, pre-signing 50 EIP-7702 authorizations to turn an Ethereum hot wallet into an automated sweeper. * **The $3B Kill-Switch:** Tether, Circle, Ripple, and Arbitrum stepped in and froze roughly $2.7B to $3B in stolen stablecoins and tokens with a few keystrokes. * **The Sovereign Escape:** Meanwhile, 18,270 BTC and over 420,000 ETH ($2.4B in bearer assets) vanished into a 19-address peel chain beyond any issuer's reach. * **The SAFU Reality:** A $1B emergency reserve cannot erase the structural risk of keeping bearer money wired to an internet-connected API. If an issuer can press a button to freeze a North Korean hacker's stablecoins at 8:45 PM, that same button can be pressed on anyone tomorrow morning.

Look so I have wasted a lot of time while starting out by focussing on the wrong things and thats precisely why I wanted to let everyone who are unprofitable or even breakeven know that what they need to abide by or avoid to actually become profitable and stay that way. 1. DO NOT JOIN any trade signal groups ever suggesting you to take this trade or that trade, if you still are in em, only ever use these signals for learning or getting to know what actually happened in the live market, how did the trade play out, what could have been the rationale behind the trade and thats it! Do not simply place orders in live market just cuz some trade signal community has alerted you to do so. 2. Only trade a strategy in live markets once you are done backtesting it extensively inside out, you should know each and everything related to your strategy and i actually mean it, all the confluences which laids the foundation for your strategy and not just that but many a times what happens is, a successful backtested strategy might fail when traded live purely owing to your psychology, you cut your SL's shorter or make them space out them randonly in some trades, you cut the trade way before it actually hit your TP, you dont abide by all the confluences your strategy demands simply because you were so bored that you just wanted to trade even when didnt fit your strategy's confluences. And one thing yeah the most crucial one in this pointer DO NOT copy paste a yt guru 's strategy, look if many people know an edge in the market, the edge doesnt simply exist for a long time, what you need to do is get to know all the basics and intermediate info related to their strategy and then backtest making use of different confluences and simply get to know what actually works. Also a strategy only works on one specified instrument and one session, a strategy which does phenomenoly well in the Asian session mightnt be as good in the New york session and vice versa. Also a strategy which works amazing on ETH will most prob be shit on Gold and same goes the other way. 3. Consider this an actual profession not simply a side hustle Look every dollar you spend must be accounted for if you wish to be smone in this domain okay, No profitable trader has never turned that way without having a pre defined plan and a system to abide by and most importantly they actually took trading as an actual profession not some random side hustle to make some money and then get off the markets. Also it you are just starting out, you must have the curiousity to ask why, i have come across so many people considering the market to be a facade full of mysteries and unexpected moves, this is not entirely true, a decent number of market moves in the market can be explained for, make use of reuters, Bloomberg for news. And to get accurate explanations as to why some big moves occured in the market, use Pensor, market reader or simply any ai model which you are accustomed to using, but never ignore such moves in the market, try to know the reasoning behind them is what i would suggest you to beginners, this way you get to be more curious which will make you fall in love with the market. 4. Do not EVER borrow money from anyone, only trade with the money you can actually afford to lose, overly leveraged positions, borrowing from family to make that one big trade, that shit wont get you nowhere, just trust me on that !! 5. Manage your Risk, dont ever risk anywhere more than 0.5 percent of your account size if your total account size is more than 5k, and if its lesser than 5k, DO NOT RISK more than 1 percent, i would suggest you not to start with a trading capital kf less than 5k if you wish to trade your own live account, you can also look out for prop firm challenge based accounts if you cant afford 5k on your own but a live account is actually better cuz most prop firms are diguised money stealers so yeah honestly your call. 6. Do Not Give Up Its not once or twice that you will feel like giving up on trading, it would happen almost every other day and the only thing if you are just starting out owing to the fact that you would fall a victim to information overload, there would be so much news and data that you will feel like avoiding it all together and the worst time is when the psych gets ruined during a losing streak, this is honestly inevitable, nothing on earth can avoid a losing streak for a trader, but you have to build the resilience to overcome it and be in the game cuz this trading domain aint no race track, its a marathon, you dont have to be fast, you just do NOT have to give up no matter what happens and eventually you will WIN! Also one thing I would like to say, DO NOT LET ONE LOSS RUIN YOUR CONFIDENCE AND DO NOT LET ONE WIN BUILD YOUR EGO !

Nobody can say if it's a shakeout or a breakdown ahead of time, and Wyckoff labels are easy to see after the fact. A level that keeps getting tested can fail more easily each time, so I'd decide in advance where the idea is wrong, like a close below the zone, and not rely on a target like 3K. Looking at a range of likely outcomes is calmer than guessing one path. Cymetica's Crypto Outlook shows modeled price ranges for coins like ETH.

ETH is an amazing uni. However, I think landing interviews for roles in Switzerland/Europe will be considerably easier for you and what you should focus on primarily.

Whether fresh buying can sustain it is another question. Reported October 30 flows across U.S. spot BTC and ETH ETFs show combined net outflows of $469.1 million. BlackRock’s figures remain incomplete, so the final total could change. BTC is around $77,300 and ETH near $2,244, recovering from the sharp selloff. Buyers have stepped in, while the reported ETF flows have yet to follow. There’s an update on Binance too. Reuters now reports roughly $6.3 billion stolen. Binance says it has earmarked company funds to cover losses, with withdrawals still awaiting restoration. The next tests are actual withdrawals and reserve disclosures—reimbursement promises need execution. The backdrop remains difficult. The Nasdaq lost about 2.9% overnight as investors questioned when AI spending would deliver profits. Gold, XAU, fell toward $3,875, while Brent rose to $117.63. Middle East supply risks are raising energy costs and keeping inflation concerns alive. Lower Treasury yields failed to support stocks or gold. This weekend, watch whether buyers support BTC on pullbacks and whether NEAR and UNI hold their gains. If BTC stalls and smaller coins surrender their rallies, chasing could mean buying into profit-taking. I’d wait for a pullback before considering an entry. Which bothers you more: missing this green candle or buying it and getting trapped?

The "never-seen-before laundering patterns" line is the part I'd watch 🔍 Once stolen funds get split across many wallets and hopped between chains, tracing gets harder, though on-chain analysts can often still follow the flows. For regular traders the practical angle is that stablecoins like USDT can be frozen by the issuer when flagged, while BTC and ETH can't, so how the proceeds get moved will shape how much is ever recovered. It also shows why custody and withdrawal controls matter as much as the trading venue itself.

If I just stole billions in BTC and ETH at this point in the cycle I would just hold it lol.

I’ve been studying ETH’s historical price action over the past six years, and one level keeps catching my attention: **$2,100–$2,200.** Looking back at previous corrections, I’ve noticed ETH repeatedly selling off after pushing into the mid-$2,500s and higher, only to find buyers around this same region. A few examples from my charts: **January 2024:** ETH wicked toward $2,165–$2,170 before recovering. **September 2024:** Another sharp selloff into the low-$2,100s, followed by a recovery above $2,200. **June 2025:** ETH tested approximately $2,116 before recovering toward $2,230. These weren’t identical setups, and not every bounce resulted in an immediate sustained rally. But the repeated reactions suggest this region has historically attracted meaningful buying interest. **Fast-forward to October 2026.** ETH has corrected sharply from the $2,700–$2,800 region, recently testing approximately $2,170–$2,200 before bouncing. We’re once again sitting just above a historically important demand zone. **Here’s where my Wyckoff accumulation thesis comes in.** Three months ago, I identified the move toward $1,500 as a potential Wyckoff spring. ETH subsequently rallied above $2,700, which I interpreted as a possible Sign of Strength (SOS). My current hypothesis is that this correction could be a deeper back-up or Last Point of Support (LPS) within that larger accumulation structure. If that’s correct, the recent move into $2,100–$2,200 could represent another shakeout before the next markup attempt. **What I’m watching:** **$2,100–$2,200:** Historical demand zone that needs to hold. **$2,300:** First important reclaim. **$2,400:** A sustained move above this level would strengthen the bullish reversal. **$2,500–$2,600:** Major resistance and stronger confirmation of renewed momentum. **$2,700–$2,800:** Previous resistance zone. **$3,000:** My next major upside target if the structure confirms. **The bearish case matters too.** If ETH decisively loses $2,100 and fails to reclaim it, the accumulation thesis becomes significantly weaker. In that scenario, I’d be watching $2,000 and potentially $1,900 rather than assuming another automatic bounce. A support zone is not a guaranteed floor, and historical price reactions alone don’t establish accumulation. **My current read:** I think ETH has a legitimate opportunity to establish a higher low around $2,100–$2,200 and begin another move toward $3,000. But I want to see $2,300 reclaimed first, followed by $2,400 holding as support. That would be far more convincing than simply bouncing off an oversold reading. The next several daily candles should tell us a lot. **Curious what everyone else thinks: Is $2,100–$2,200 a genuine multiyear demand zone, or are we just seeing temporary relief rallies within a larger downtrend?** I kept the tone analytical and confident without claiming that the Wyckoff LPS or a move to $3,000 is already confirmed. Current market analysis also identifies the $2,150–$2,200 area as an important support test. Q +

Do a master’s at one of the following institutions: Princeton, MIT, CMU, Princeton, Cambridge, Oxford, ICL, EPFL, ETH Zürich. Ideally, apply to them all. If you are a solid quant candidate, you will get into at least one. For program, any of math/applied math/cs/stats/ml/finance is fine. Don’t worry about any other school for MSc if the goal is quant. ROI is not there. If you wish to stay in school longer, either continue at your institution for a master or go straight to a PhDs at an american state schools or better. PhDs are hard and a fine filter even if the name is not as prestigious. If you are not passionate about furthering your education, don’t. Try to get some tangentially related technical role i.e. software engineer, financial data analyst, etc and pivot. But you are likely to find that job sufficient to make ends meet and as you get older you will likely care more about security/stability than being the most accomplished of your friends. You are in a great place if you are getting OAs. Don’t be too hard on yourself. there are lots of great opportunities out there for smart people. If you are simply interested in markets, there is plenty if interesting work in energy/commodities/crypto/prediction markets etc rn. Best of luck!

In the last 10 years crypto has been around: \-Blockchain security has slightly improved on major chains like BTC and ETH. \-Major exchanges have improved their security requiring more layers of verification and more indepth internal security. \-Hardware wallets have improved their hardware and software. BUT \-Hardware wallets have also added features that create more vulnerabilities. \-Exchanges still have a lot of the same weak points. \-Hacking is vastly more powerful plus has the help of AI, so the improved exchange security could still fall behind. \-Quantum might still be a threat for blockchain, but not for at least a decade or two.

Yeah, data, please. The one that can be plugged into mathematical models, preferably. Merit only, not your feelings. Good luck with trading shitcoins in size when SOXL perps are the 3rd biggest perps product on any exchange after BTC and ETH.

Personally, I believe it ultimately comes down to conviction. I strongly believe that technology and growth stocks have greater growth potential than traditional “old economy” stocks, and I expect this trend to become even more pronounced in the future. Regardless of high valuations, I think the market will continue to go through corrections and eventually regain momentum and move higher again. Of course, the Nasdaq isn't a perfect index by design, but at the moment I don't see any serious alternative with comparable trading volume. Specialized technology sector ETFs exclude too many tech companies due to their sector classification criteria. For example, my portfolio consists of 50% Nasdaq 100, 25% SMH, and 25% BTC/ETH. I'm certainly in for a wild ride, but conviction is what makes the difference.

>**More than you can buy,** >**Devcon next week to get by,** >**Ultrasound Mumbai.** ~Daily haiku until we’re at least at 0.178 on the ETH/BTC ratio or highest market cap

Yeah kinda crazy one dev had access to all that. Although they said on X that they discovered more attack angles, they haven’t shared which ones tho. I don’t they eip 7702 allowed them to move Bitcoin for example. It’s an ETH wallet thing

If I rebalance into ETH, changenow is one option I’d compare, but I’d still check rates, custody risk, and tax impact first.

l. In return, the automated system gladly lent them $45 million worth of a different asset (Wrapped ETH)—a type of digital cash that has no central master freeze butt

Loss likely passed on to defi ETH lenders where these were still used as collateral

The so-called DeFi loan contracts aren't yet regulated. Stablecoins are regulated, but stablecoin regulation doesn't extend to buying a DeFi contract to borrow ETH

The real flaw is with protocols like Aave where their smart contracts treat freezable assets (USDT) the same as native, unfreezable assets (ETH) without accounting for censorship risk. Imagine taking out a cash loan against a luxury car. In the real world, no bank hands you $50,000 in cash while you hand them a car title that's currently being reported stolen, or a title to a car that the manufacturer can remotely disable and repossess at any second. Real world lenders verify clear title, encumbrances, and ownership transfer before releasing a single dollar. Aave’s smart contracts effectively accepted the car title instantly, paid out non-refundable cash, and left the lender holding a car that got bricked remotely ten minutes later. While I understand how this is how they have always operated it's dumb af. Like even if this hack didn't happen this kind of operation of smart contracts just doesn't make sense.

The point of Bitcoin is that a diverse network of nodes presents a whack-a-mole problem to anybody trying to censor payments, or shut it down Tether isn't a diverse network of nodes Neither are Ripple and the other centralised "instant" cryptocurrencies Only BTC is genuinely decentralised. ETH, TRON and the other "smart contract" blockchains are too bloated with contracts to recruit node operators. Other BTC-derived blockchains are too small to recruit node operators Monero? Maybe Tether is nothing more than a token enabled by a contract on a variety of smart chains. The contract is centralised. All smart contract tokens are centralised
