Gate Research Daily Report: Over the past 24 hours, the crypto market has broadly strengthened. BTC broke above and held firm above $70,000 on increased volume, while ETH outperformed, with high-beta capital clearly rotating back in, though it is approaching overbought territory. SWARMS, JOE, and UNITAS all posted significant gains, driven respectively by the rising AI agent narrative, a rebound in the Avalanche ecosystem, and growing demand for stable payment solutions. Bitcoin’s rebound above $70,000 has boosted market sentiment, but options indicators do not yet signal sustained bullish expectations. Meanwhile, DeFi lending protocol Seamless has announced it will cease operations, with its official interface set to shut down on June 30. The U.S. FDIC has also proposed a new regulatory framework stating that stablecoins will not be eligible for deposit insurance.

CoW Protocol is a decentralized trading protocol built around batch auctions and order matching. By aggregating and optimizing user orders before execution, it reduces slippage, lowers MEV risk, and improves on-chain trading efficiency. Unlike traditional automated market makers, AMMs, or DEX aggregators, CoW Protocol introduces the concept of Coincidence of Wants, allowing traders to match directly with one another, which helps reduce costs and on-chain friction.

COW is the native governance token of CoW Protocol, designed to support protocol governance, incentivize the Solver network, and drive ecosystem growth. As a key component of CoW Protocol’s trading system, the COW token connects users, Solvers, and developers through governance and incentive mechanisms, helping maintain decentralized operation.

CoW Protocol, Uniswap, and 1inch are three representative infrastructures in today’s decentralized trading landscape. Each approaches on-chain trading optimization from a different angle. As the DeFi ecosystem continues to evolve, factors such as transaction costs, slippage, and MEV risk have become increasingly important in users’ choice of trading protocols, driving the emergence of new trading mechanisms.

Coincidence of Wants (CoW) is an order matching mechanism in which multiple traders’ needs align, allowing trades to be executed directly without relying on liquidity pools. In decentralized trading environments, this approach reduces intermediary routing and improves execution efficiency.

This article provides a comprehensive explanation of quantum computing, its potential impact on Bitcoin, and the quantum-resistant solutions being developed by the Bitcoin community. Drawing on the latest research and industry developments as of April 2026, it aims to help readers differentiate between short-term noise and long-term risks.

Following the announcement of a two-week ceasefire between the US and Iran, which includes the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, WTI crude oil prices experienced a significant decline. Drawing on the latest developments as of April 8, 2026, this article examines the underlying causes of the oil price plunge, the trajectory of supply restoration, the implications for inflation transmission, and the effects on A-shares and global assets.

The rise of Hyperliquid, the launch of the TradFi section on Gate, and the parallel expansion of CEX and on-chain perpetuals are driving Perp DEX from crypto derivatives toward multi-asset trading. This article explores how, in 2026, on-chain perpetuals will define new boundaries among users, liquidity, and TradFi assets.

KTA is the native token of the Keeta network, used for paying transaction fees, participating in governance, and incentivizing validator nodes. Its tokenomics model is designed around “high-performance execution and compliant financial applications,” supporting network security and long-term operation through low-cost fees, a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) mechanism, and ecosystem incentive distribution. KTA also plays a central role in transaction execution, compliance verification, and ecosystem participation, serving as the key medium connecting users, applications, and infrastructure.

With stablecoin legislation taking effect in the United States, Hong Kong’s licensing framework advancing, and Stripe and Visa accelerating their entry, stablecoins are rapidly transforming from a medium of trade to the core infrastructure for global payments and on-chain settlement. This article explores why, by 2026, stablecoins are poised to become the most powerful narrative in the crypto marketplace.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) has announced a partnership with Aster DEX, with plans to introduce the Stablecoin USD1 as the settlement asset for TradFi Perpetual Futures on their decentralized trading platform. This integration offers traders new ways to use USD1 and further expands its applications within the DeFi marketplace.

With the ongoing growth of the Solana ecosystem, security concerns are becoming more critical. In response, the Solana Foundation has launched several new security programs, such as the STRIDE security framework and the SIRN incident response network. Additionally, developers are being offered security tools and support to strengthen the ecosystem's overall defense and transparency.

Over the past week, markets saw heightened volatility driven by recurring geopolitical tensions and stronger than expected economic data. Shifting signals from the United States and Iran pushed oil prices higher, with WTI rising more than 7% on the week. Solid retail sales, ISM readings, and nonfarm payrolls supported a rebound in equities, while precious metals reached new highs. Crypto assets moved in line with improving risk appetite, with Bitcoin approaching the $70k resistance level. On the flow side, BTC ETFs recorded modest weekly net inflows of about $22.3 million, an improvement from the prior week but still limited, while ETH ETFs continued to see net outflows. Quarter end rebalancing and holiday effects led to quick reversals after initial inflows. On chain and trading activity concentrated in oil and precious metals, DEX structure reshuffled, and Meteora volumes increased significantly. Stablecoin supply remained elevated, with USDC edging lower while DAI and USDS absorbed incremental flows, and A

A cross-chain bridge is a technical mechanism that enables the transfer of assets and data between different blockchains. Its core principle involves locking or burning assets on the source chain while minting or releasing equivalent assets on the destination chain, thereby completing cross-chain interactions. As multi-chain ecosystems continue to expand, cross-chain bridges have become essential infrastructure for connecting networks, unlocking liquidity, and supporting cross-chain applications.
