Recently, there are a few things in the crypto world worth paying attention to. The Fed's interest rate cut expectations still have a noticeable impact on market sentiment, and many traders are closely following the latest developments from the FOMC. Meanwhile, the DeFi sector is also fiercely competitive—Ethena's newly launched futures trading feature has attracted a lot of attention, while the rivalry between a major DEX and Kamino is also not to be underestimated. On the regulatory front, Ondo Finance's SEC investigation has been settled, which is a positive signal for the entire stablecoin and on-chain financial ecosystem. As for the mainnet event of a certain blockchain, although the details are still under discussion, the market's reaction has already spoken volumes. Overall, the three key areas to focus on now are policy, product innovation, and risk management.

The FOMC is about to loosen monetary policy again. Will it actually rally this time? It still depends on the mood of the US stock market.

The expectation of interest rate cuts was indeed a bit exaggerated, and traders who keep an eye on FOMC movements are really exhausted.
Ethena's futures features are decent this time, but the DeFi situation is quite competitive.
Is the resolution of Ondo's matter considered a positive signal? Can an SEC investigation be enough? We have to wait for actual implementation to be sure.
Risk management? Easy to say, but in practice, who isn't going in bare-handed?
Regarding the mainnet incident of a certain public chain, uh... what are they discussing? The market has already reacted, right?
You need to keep an eye on all three lines; there aren't many people who are this versatile.

The expectation of rate cuts really can't be sustained anymore. I'm monitoring the FOMC movements every day, and it feels more exhausting than watching stocks.
I’ve been watching Ethena’s futures feature, but honestly, I’m just waiting to see if it can stabilize before taking action.
Ondo’s matter has finally settled, I was worried before, so this is really good news for the stablecoin track.
I’m still a bit confused about that certain public chain. The details haven't been fully explained yet.
DeFi is now in full competition; everyone wants to stand out. I find Kamino’s approach to competing with DEXs quite interesting.

Can interest rate cut expectations really save the market? I think it still depends on how the Fed folks perform.
The Ondo matter has finally come to an end; otherwise, stablecoins would be in a lot of trouble.
Is Ethena's futures feature effective? It depends on the actual trading volume.

The interest rate cut speculation has been going on for so long, but when it actually happens, it still depends on the real on-chain data.
Ethena's move was indeed interesting; DEX volume reaching this level is truly impressive.
Ondo has passed, but there are still many risks in the stablecoin sector.

Interest rate cut expectations? This is just another round of emotional games. Traders all think they can hit the mark precisely, but every FOMC statement leaves everyone stunned haha.
Ethena's futures feature doesn't seem to have anything new; it's just DEXs copying each other back and forth.
Ondo's matter is finally settled, giving the stablecoin ecosystem some breathing room, but this also indirectly shows what it means for the regulatory sword to still be hanging.
Details of the mainnet incident haven't come out yet, so it's as if nothing has been said. The market's reaction is always the most honest.
