Pacifica Launches Vaults, Allowing Users to Create Their Own or Mirror Other Traders' Strategies

On May 6, analyst Murphychen (Murphychen888) noted on social media that the Net Realized Profit/Loss (NRPL) indicator has moved back above the zero line—signaling a recovery in overall market profitability as new capital entering the market absorbs prior profits. Meanwhile, Bitcoin’s price has broken through the dual resistance levels of STH-RP and TMMP. Comparing to historical cycles, the early phase of the current bear market closely mirrors the peak of the previous cycle—but it has skipped the classic “Stage 2” (price hits a new low while losses do not widen, panic selling), transitioning directly from Stage 1 to Stage 3 (NRPL back above the zero line). The current market phase should be defined as “gradually emerging from a deep bear market into a bear-to-bull transition period.” Even if short-term extreme events similar to the March 12, 2020, crash occur, they are unlikely to fundamentally alter the overall trend. From a long-term perspective, 2026 will mark an “unprecede

On May 6, Huobi HTX announced the launch of its DOGS/USDT perpetual contract, which supports 1-20x leverage for both long and short positions. ### Notes on American English adaptation: 1. **Date format**: Uses "May 6" (no ordinal "th" after the number, standard in U.S. news) 2. **Conciseness**: Merges the "official announcement" context into the main clause (avoids redundant "according to...") 3. **Terminology**: "1-20x leverage" is the common shorthand in U.S. crypto/finance reporting (instead of "1-20 times leverage") 4. **Flow**: Places the key action ("launched") upfront, with supporting details (leverage) in a clear relative clause for readability.

**LayerZero CEO Responds to Kelp DAO’s rsETH Accusations** LayerZero CEO Bryan Pellegrino took to social media on May 6 to push back against Kelp DAO’s accusations over the rsETH security incident, citing on-chain data and technical details to refute the claims. Pellegrino said Kelp’s assertions are inaccurate, pointing to immutable on-chain records showing Kelp DAO voluntarily switched rsETH’s cross-chain configuration from the default “multi DVN” setting to a manually configured “1/1 single DVN” mode on April 1, 2024. He emphasized LayerZero’s official documentation prominently warns against using the 1/1 setup in production environments, and noted the LayerZero team had previously advised Kelp to adopt the more secure “2/3 multisig scheme” — a recommendation Kelp did not follow. Pellegrino also revealed nearly 100% of cross-chain transactions tied to the 1/1 configuration originated from rsETH itself during its operation. LayerZero is awaiting a final review report fr

May 6 – Global markets continue to absorb three key themes: economic slowdown, energy risks, and prolonged high interest rates. The Reserve Bank of Australia (RBA) has raised rates for the third straight meeting, reflecting ongoing concern over sticky inflation. Even as global demand cools slightly, energy and supply chain uncertainties keep policymakers leaning hawkish. Latest U.S. data signals a gradual slowdown: service sector growth is decelerating, and the March trade deficit hit $603 billion. Market expectations for the Federal Reserve (Fed) still tilt toward delayed rate cuts—not resuming hikes—meaning the market’s core worry isn’t an immediate downturn, but high rates sticking around longer. Geopolitically, the U.S. says its offensive military operations against Iran have ended, and former President Trump has suspended the “Freedom Plan” to de-escalate tensions in the Strait of Hormuz. But Iran still claims both sides are at war, and the UAE keeps issuing missile threat a
