Binance: the leading global cryptocurrency exchange

Binance is the most frequently used exchange all over the world. The trading volume is so crazy because it’s the number one exchange. Everyone knows about it. No more explanation.

I’ve been using it for like a few years. Now Bitcoin spot trading fee is free. It’s kind of like an event. The main reason why they are making the fee free is because the trading volume currently has been diminished.

Most people use spot trading or futures trading. But users in restricted areas cannot use futures trading.

Global version of Binance is much bigger than the US version. If you live in a different country which is not US, you should use global version.

And also there are lots of events going on for new and existing users.

Here’s the Binance link. Binance Register

Finally, Binance is really interested in education. If you want to learn about blockchain technology and other trading basics, just go to Binance Academy. There are lots of materials to read. Or you can just download it in your app store.


Cardano Rumor Rundown October 27, 2022

Hey Everyone!

Let’s go….

Newly Covered Today:

  1. Nami Wallet Version 3.4.1 is out now! https://twitter.com/berry_ales/status/1585395882605903879

Bitcoin Hits $21K, Ethereum Rises 12% as Crypto Market Cap Tops $1 Trillion

The cryptocurrency market is rebounding today as the price of Bitcoin topped $20,000 for the first time in weeks, Ethereum rose above $1,500 for the first time since the post-merge fallout, and the overall market topped $1 trillion after three weeks under that mark.

Bitcoin is currently up 6% on the day to a price of $21,000, per data from CoinGecko. Today marks the first time that the leading cryptocurrency’s price has topped $20,000 since October 7, according to the site, following weeks of relatively modest movement under that mark.

However, Ethereum is popping much higher today, up 12% over the past 24 hours to a current price of $1,500. It rose slightly higher to $1,507 before dipping, and marks the first time that Ethereum has reached the $1,500 milestone since September 15, when the price of ETH fell significantly following the network’s successful merge upgrade.

Other notable altcoins are up big today, as well, including Solana up 12% to nearly $32, Cardano rising 14% to $0.41, and Polkadot climbing almost 11% to $6.50 per token.

All told, the entire cryptocurrency market now has a total market cap of $1.03 trillion, per CoinGecko, up over 6% today. It’s the first time that the market has hit the $1 trillion mark since October 4.

What’s causing all of the green in the market today? Analysts point to macroeconomic trends, with the stock market also up today as an array of major companies report earnings. OANDA senior market analyst Edward Moya also points to hope that the U.S. Federal Reserve will soon calm its aggressive plan of interest rate raises.

“Both Bitcoin and Ethereum are gaining momentum as Wall Street musters up a few strong sessions,” Moya wrote in emailed comments to Decrypt. “The economy is showing further signs of weakening and that is helping investors grow confident that the Fed will be in a better position to downshift their tightening pace after next week’s FOMC meeting.”

Hopes for a bullish season and what steps to take

The last few months in crypto have been a rollercoaster ride for most considering the number of enthusiasts witnessing a bear market for the first time.

When Bitcoin crossed the $60k mark, many had held high, maybe a bit unrealistic hopes that we could finally see the King of Crypto smash the $100k mark.

Sadly, what followed was a gradual drop in prices yet the optimists kept saying it was nothing more than a temporary retrace which will eventually lead to a sharp pump, and probably land us on the moon.

In the second week of May, the market capitalization dropped by close to $1trillion largely fuelled by the Terra implosion. Subsequent months have seen some sort of stability return to the market but the ruins from the damage that had been done remain quite visible till date with the value of many cryptocurrencies still very far under water.

Individual traders are now left to pick up the ruins of what could have been an extraordinary end to the year if only the market crash hadn't happened too soon. One can only imagine the astronomical pump that could have occurred with the price of ETH if The Merge had happened during a bullish season. All hopes that the epoch-making event would spark a positive rally in the market soon faded away as prices have remained stable under $1400.

So what's the hope for the common man on the bloody streets of Crypto? I've had some time to reflect about a different approach to the next bull run and drawn up a couple of promising altcoins which I will be accumulating at every dip in the build-up to 2023. However, apart from stacking up altcoins, I have decided to also become an active participant in sustaining the Web3 economy by investing in the M2 Pro Miner. This is one of MXC's revolutionary efforts towards making crypto mining accessible and open to everyone regardless of your technical background.

I hope this is a very profitable venture at the end, and one that's worth the effort especially with DOT mining coming in Q4, as an addition to BTC and other data tokens already supported.

There is no news or event as Bitcoin re-approaches $21,000. Markets are active again, BTC $24K .. and $30K next week? Some are saying it's a bull market, others are saying it's a short-lived bear market, and we're still going through a long winter. what do you think?
