The trading interface is still lit with blue light at three in the morning, and you are completely unaware—more dangerous than candlestick charts, crashes are quietly happening in your body.

Global renowned investment management company VanEck has announced that after obtaining regulatory approval from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), it will launch a cryptocurrency-linked ETF—NODE ETF on May 14, 2025, which will reshape the investment landscape for crypto assets.

Traditional financial giants worry about the collapse of the monetary order, while the crypto market shows resilience, acting as a "stabilizer"?
Billionaire investor Ray Dalio recently expressed deep concerns about the economic situation: "We are facing a situation worse than a recession, the monetary order is collapsing."
