@RehanUddin90 Thank you!🙏

@MariaV54 You looking lovely 😊

🚨 A couple of days ago, $1.26B got wiped out in crypto in 24 hours. 209,000 traders liquidated. BTC down to $58K. 📉 ⚠️ Here’s the part most people miss: a lot of that damage hit traders who thought they were protected. ✅Picture this — a fund holds what looks like a safe position. Betting up on one exchange, betting down on another, so in theory the two cancel each other out. Sounds low-risk, right? But here’s the catch: each exchange only sees its own half. They don’t talk to each other. 🦝 ❗️So when the market crashed, both sides got hit with margin calls separately — even though on paper, the fund’s actual risk was close to zero. 🏛️And honestly, this keeps happening. We’ve had four billion-dollar-plus liquidation events since February alone. 💡If you’ve never thought about this before, here’s the 30-second version: Imagine splitting your savings across five different banks, but each one demands its own full emergency fund — even though your overall finances are perfectly balanced. That’s basically what institutions and family offices deal with when trading across multiple crypto exchanges. Capital just sits there, locked up, doing nothing, “just in case.” 💸 🔥This is exactly the gap Gate CrossEX was built to close. Instead of locking up capital separately at every exchange, CrossEX lets it move and work as one pool. So if one side of your trade is winning, it can support the side that’s losing, in real time. No scrambling to move funds mid-crash. No idle cash sitting around everywhere “just in case.” 🙏 🎯 Who this is for: 🔹 Family offices managing crypto allocations across several exchanges 🔹 Funds and desks tired of tying up capital they could be using 🔹 Anyone who wants fewer accounts, less complexity, and one place to see the full picture ✅The investors who sort this out now won’t be the ones panicking during the next crash. 👀 📩 If you want to work with @Gate or just try CrossEX out, feel free to reach out. #CrossEX #FamilyOffice #InstitutionalCrypto #CapitalEfficiency #Web3

🎙️Thank you @Forbes for inviting me to the 2nd edition of the @Forbes_MENA_ Building the Future Summit! 🏗️ ✅The event was held under the patronage of the UAE Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure and presented by One Development, bringing together government leaders, investors, architects, and tech innovators at Conrad Abu Dhabi Etihad Towers. 📍A few key takeaways that stuck with me: 💡On real estate & investor confidence — capital keeps pouring into the UAE. ✅Developer track record. ✅Transparency. ✅Asset quality. Branded residences are commanding serious premiums right now — trust is the new currency. 🤖On AI & architecture — digital twins and "living master plans" are replacing months-long feasibility studies. Big data is also reshaping how developers understand demand across different buyer segments — remote workers, leisure buyers, and traditional homeowners alike. 🚦On scaling innovation — one of the standout examples was the Emirates Road expansion, a ~AED7.5B project that increased capacity by 65% and cut travel time by 45% — proof that pilots only matter if they're built to scale from day one. 💰On procurement — a strong call to evaluate value over the full project lifecycle, not just the lowest price today. Localization and knowledge transfer were named as key value drivers for the region. 🌆The big picture? The most powerful cities of the future won't be defined by the tech they use, but by what people no longer have to think about. 🇦🇪 #ForbesMiddleEast #BuildingTheFuture #AbuDhabi #UAE #FutureCities

🌐Why do I keep coming back to Armenia? 🇦🇲 ✅ The people. The food. The greenery that reminds me so much of our Carpathians back home in Ukraine. And places like Byurakan Observatory and Voskevaz Winery that make every trip feel new. 💡But what I cherish most is the time spent inside Armenia’s ancient monasteries. This time it was Tegher and Saghmosavank 🙏 🔹 Tegher — built in 1213 by Princess Mamakhatun, made of dark grey basalt. Its fortress-like position overlooks the entire Ararat Valley. 🔹 Saghmosavank — the “Monastery of Psalms,” perched on the edge of the Kasagh Gorge, built in 1215, once one of medieval Armenia’s great centers of learning. 📍Byurakan Observatory — home to a 2.6-meter Cassegrain reflector, one of the largest telescopes of its kind, discovering thousands of objects still studied worldwide. 📍Voskevaz Winery — Armenia’s oldest operating winery (established 1932), with incredible food and a rich history spanning centuries 🍇 🙏 Sincere gratitude to @Web3Anarchist — true Web3 evangelist in Armenia — and his family and friends for showing me these incredible places. 🇦🇲 #Armenia 🇦🇲 #travel #Tegher #Saghmosavank
