📋 Wallet & Security | Private Keys and Addresses · Definition: EIP-55 adds a checksum to Ethereum addresses by mixing uppercase and lowercase letters. If one or two characters in an address are mistyped, most wallets that support checksum validation can detect it. · How it works: You can derive an address from a private key, but you can’t derive the private key from the address alone, so it’s safe to share your receiving address with others. · Practical tip: Don’t export your private key unless necessary. If you really need to export it, don’t paste it into a note-taking app that’s connected to the internet. $BTC 80228.04(+0.05%)
🐋 $ORDER Latest funding rate: -0.0728% (settled every 1 hour); shorts pay. Funding rates usually reflect fairly quickly which side the market is crowded on.

One commonly cited risk is that shorts may be forced to cover, pushing prices up—but that's just one possible scenario. Sizing your order based on the distance to your stop-loss is much more reliable than guessing.
