Crypto ETFs Explained: Mechanisms, Products, and Market Impact

Modular Blockchain: The Logic Behind the Separation of Execution, Settlement, and Data Availability

As blockchain evolves from an experimental technology to a foundation for real-world applications, tensions between performance, cost, and scalability have become increasingly apparent. While traditional monolithic blockchains helped launch the industry, they now reveal structural limitations when confronted with complex use cases and large user populations. Modular blockchains are not merely incremental technical improvements; they signal a fundamental shift in system architecture. By decoupling core functions—including execution, settlement, and data availability—modular blockchains are redefining how blockchain networks expand, interact, and advance. This course starts from this critical turning point, helping you understand the deep transformation underway in blockchain infrastructure.

Introduction to Programmable Oracle Networks

Blockchains are powerful but limited by their isolation from the outside world. Smart contracts can only process on-chain data, yet most real-world applications, from finance and insurance to gaming and logistics, depend on external information. Programmable oracle networks solve this problem by securely delivering and processing off-chain data for use on-chain. They extend blockchain functionality, enabling decentralized applications to interact with markets, APIs, sensors, and even other blockchains in a trust-minimized way.

Gate Research: XRD Surges Over 60% in 24 Hours | $47M BTC Was Stolen

Gate Research Daily Report: On January 23, BTC rebounded after a sharp sell-off that previously pushed it down to around $87,000, and is now consolidating within the $89,300–$89,900 range; ETH staged a technical rebound after falling to around $2,866, but retreated after facing resistance near $3,000 and is now moving sideways between $2,930–$2,980; GT, after rebounding from lower levels, is capped by resistance near $10.10 and continues to trade in a weak consolidation pattern; XRD led small-cap tokens with a surge of +60.19%. Meanwhile, South Korean authorities reported that BTC under custody may have been stolen in a phishing attack, involving around $47 million; Citi warned that the recent surge in Ethereum on-chain activity is likely driven mainly by “address poisoning” scams; and World Liberty Financial’s partnership with Spacecoin to launch the USD1 satellite DeFi project has drawn market attention.

Gate Research: BTC Long-Term Signals Remain Bullish | Ondo Expands to Solana with Tokenized Stocks

Gate Research: BTC and ETH are consolidating at lower levels after the pullback, with downside technical pressure easing in the short term, though a clear trend reversal has yet to be confirmed. Risk appetite remains cautious: on-chain data shows whales continuing to accumulate, while sentiment indicators stay in the extreme fear zone—suggesting improving positioning but incomplete confidence recovery. Meanwhile, Ondo is bringing tokenized stocks and ETFs to Solana, further expanding RWA and on-chain securities use cases and strengthening blockchains’ capacity to host traditional financial assets. In parallel, Solayer has launched a USD 35 million ecosystem fund focused on high-performance on-chain applications, supporting both infrastructure and application layers.

Glossary

More
apr
Annual Percentage Rate (APR) represents the yearly yield or cost as a simple interest rate, excluding the effects of compounding interest. You will commonly see the APR label on exchange savings products, DeFi lending platforms, and staking pages. Understanding APR helps you estimate returns based on the number of days held, compare different products, and determine whether compound interest or lock-up rules apply.
fomo
Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) refers to the psychological phenomenon where individuals, upon witnessing others profit or seeing a sudden surge in market trends, become anxious about being left behind and rush to participate. This behavior is common in crypto trading, Initial Exchange Offerings (IEOs), NFT minting, and airdrop claims. FOMO can drive up trading volume and market volatility, while also amplifying the risk of losses. Understanding and managing FOMO is essential for beginners to avoid impulsive buying during price surges and panic selling during downturns.
nft
NFTs (Non-Fungible Tokens) are unique digital certificates recorded on the blockchain, designed to establish authenticity and ownership of digital items, in-game assets, membership privileges, or representations of real-world assets. NFTs can be bought, sold, and transferred, with all rules and transactions governed by smart contracts that execute automatically on-chain. They are commonly found on public blockchains such as Ethereum and across NFT marketplaces, serving use cases like collectibles, trading, and identity verification.
leverage
Leverage refers to the practice of using a small amount of personal capital as margin to amplify your available trading or investment funds. This allows you to take larger positions with limited initial capital. In the crypto market, leverage is commonly seen in perpetual contracts, leveraged tokens, and DeFi collateralized lending. It can enhance capital efficiency and improve hedging strategies, but also introduces risks such as forced liquidation, funding rates, and increased price volatility. Proper risk management and stop-loss mechanisms are essential when using leverage.
