high-frequency trading (HFT) is increasingly squeezing retail traders in crypto markets. HFT firms, armed with ultra-fast algorithms, dominate liquidity provision and exploit microsecond price discrepancies—leaving retail investors at a severe disadvantage through adverse selection and higher volatility. As institutions flood in, retail participation has waned, with tighter spreads benefiting pros while flash crashes and range-bound prices erode small traders' edges. Regulations like minimum resting times could level the field, but for now, HFT is reshaping crypto into an elite arena.Related sites: https://www.investopedia.com/terms/h/high-frequency-trading.asp https://phemex.com/academy/high-frequency-trading-hft-crypto https://www.bloomberg.com/news/audio/2022-10-08/high-frequency-trader-says-institutions-are-taking-over-crypto https://www.moontrader.com/blog/high-frequency-trading-software

Live like a local: Skip tourist traps. Rent a bike or walk aimless neighborhoods at dawn. Shop wet markets, eat at tiny stalls where grandmas cook. Take public buses to the edges. Chat with taxi drivers, barbers, old men playing chess. Find the city’s secret park, late-night noodle spot, or rooftop only locals know. Slow down, repeat nothing twice, let the city choose you.Useful sites: spottedbylocals.com likelocal.app i.imgur.com (for city-specific insider maps) atlasobscura.com
