🌞Users of Solana-based borrowing and lending service Solend voted on Sunday to force a takeover of the protocol’s largest account: a whale whose “extremely large margin position” threatened a catastrophic on-chain liquidation cliff. The vote will give Solend Labs “emergency powers” to liquidate the whale’s vulnerable assets through over-the-counter (OTC) trading rather than decentralized exchanges should the price fall too low.
⚠️As prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum plummeted by roughly 6% and 8% on Wednesday, shares of Coinbase Global (COIN) fell by 7%, lagging behind rivals exposed to the cryptocurrency market.

Features of trading CFD
- Trade in both the bull and the bear markets
The ability to enter a long and/or short position allows traders to take advantage of both rising and falling markets. - Smaller barrier to entry
CFDs typically have flexible and smaller contract sizes. This means that traders will be able to enter into a CFD contract with a modest amount of capital. - No expiration date or risk of delivery
Unlike futures which commonly have a fixed expiration date, CFDs allow traders to perpetually hold the position(s). CFDs are cash settled, no need to worry about the delivery of the underlying asset.
