1. What Is Market Cap?
Most new traders focus on price, but market cap tells the real story.
Market Cap = Price × Circulating Supply.
A low-cap coin can move fast but carries higher risk.
A high-cap coin moves slower but offers more stability.
Always check market cap before entering a trade — it shows how much “room to grow” a coin really has.
2. Spot vs. Futures Trading
Spot Trading:
You own the asset, and your risk is limited to your investment. Ideal for beginners.
Futures Trading:
You trade price movement using leverage. Potential for bigger gains, but also bigger losses.
If you are still learning, spot trading is the safest starting point.
3. What Is a Layer-2?
Layer-2 networks scale Ethereum by making transactions faster and cheaper.
Examples: Arbitrum, Optimism, Linea, Base.
Think of L2s as express lanes on a busy highway — the same destination, but with less traffic and lower cost.
4. Why BTC Halving Matters
Bitcoin halves its mining rewards roughly every four years.
This reduces new BTC supply and historically leads to major market cycles.
Not financial advice — but every serious trader should understand how halving impacts long-term price trends.
5. What Are Stablecoins?
Stablecoins like USDT, USDC, and BUSD are pegged to the US dollar.
They help traders:
• Lock profits
• Avoid volatility
• Move funds across exchanges quickly
• Manage risk in uncertain markets
Stablecoins are the backbone of crypto trading strategy.
