The Solana ecosystem is abuzz after Jupiter Lend's asset segregation commitment was exposed as false. A Fluid co-founder admitted that true segregation was not achieved, leading to user doubts.

This has angered the community and raised concerns about the safety of principal funds.

[BlockBeats] Yesterday, the US finally released the long-delayed September PCE data. Core inflation’s annual growth rate dropped to 2.8%, hitting a five-month low and coming in slightly below market expectations. As soon as the data came out, traditional markets immediately began to play out the "soft landing" scenario: the US dollar continued to weaken, US Treasury yields declined, and US stocks kept rising at a steady pace. Normally, this environment is favorable for risk assets, since it gives the Fed more room to cut rates in December.
But Bitcoin’s reaction has been rather strange. After the data was released, BTC fell instead of rising, dropping to around 87,000 at one point, with a 24-hour volatility of about 3%, clearly decoupling from the stock market. This pullback actually had little to do with the inflation data and was mainly due to a combination of factors: a concentration of options expirations, some pressure rumors around MicroStrategy, and significant volatility during the Asian trading session. Mainstream coins followed the correction, but interestingly, BTC spot ETFs were able to...

XRP faces an awkward situation: although on-chain data appears optimistic, veteran investors are offloading heavily while new capital has yet to enter the market, creating a strange equilibrium. Since mid-November, XRP’s price has fluctuated repeatedly within the $1.81 to $2.28 range, with little momentum for a breakout, and neither bulls nor bears able to gain the upper hand.

The year-end central bank meeting week is about to begin, with the Federal Reserve's interest rate decision drawing significant attention as the market's probability of a rate cut rises to 84%.

Investors should pay attention to the actions and data changes from central banks in various countries.

[Crypto World] The second-largest ETH holder on a certain platform closed a long position he had been holding for nearly four days 17 hours ago, pocketing $1.285 million. But this guy was once up as much as $5.3 million in unrealized gains, so ending up with just this much is quite the drawdown.
It gets even more dramatic—after closing the position, he couldn't resist and opened two more ETH long positions in a row, both of which ended in losses. This round of trades directly wiped out $230,000.
All in all, after three rounds of ETH longs, this whale still made a final profit of $1.055 million. But seeing that $5.3 million peak, it’s hard not to feel a bit regretful.

[Chain News] The Nasdaq-listed Solana treasury company DeFi Development(, stock ticker DFDV), just released its November report card. Interestingly, they didn’t buy more SOL this month, still holding 2.196 million coins, which is worth about $293 million at the current price. However, they put over 530,000 of those SOL into the liquid staking token dfdvSOL to earn interest.
The real highlight is in the Q3 financial report: unrealized gains soared to over $74 million, and the SOL holdings had a yield of 11.4%. Honestly, that’s a pretty solid return. Plus, the company’s COO Parker White and CSO Dan Kang recently started buying back their own shares from the secondary market—when top execs put real money on the line, that’s a strong signal.
By the way, this company mainly holds SOL and does liquid staking to earn revenue.

As of last November, the market value of Russia's gold reserves surpassed $300 billion for the first time, accounting for 42.3% of its international reserves, setting a new historical high.

The Bank of Japan may raise interest rates to 0.75% this month, the highest level since 1995. This will impact a large number of carry trades, especially in the highly leveraged cryptocurrency market, and may lead investors to adjust their portfolios. A stronger yen could also trigger a decline in global risk appetite, and tightening liquidity may intensify market volatility.

Recently, XRP has shown a divergence in the market, with trading volume increasing but the price declining. The current price is about $2.05.

Recently, predictions on Polymarket regarding the Federal Reserve's December interest rate meeting show that the market believes there is a 94% probability of a 25 basis point rate cut, while the probability of keeping rates unchanged is only 6%. Although the possibility of a 50 basis point rate cut is just 1%, trading volume has exceeded $260 million, reflecting a strong market consensus on the direction of monetary policy.
