CME just raised margins again second time this week

• Gold: +9%
• Silver: +30%
• Platinum: +25%
• Palladium: +22%

When margins jump this fast, @CMEGroup isn’t worried about noise it’s bracing for violent continuation

Volatility + leverage in metals is getting too hot to ignore

Someone is offsides

Watch silver closely. That’s usually where stress shows first

Global gold reserves are now larger than foreign-held U.S. Treasuries.

Gold is quietly reclaiming its role as the monetary base layer.

Post–Cold War, USTs were treated as “better than gold”:

risk-free, liquid, and yield-bearing.

That illusion broke the moment the dollar system became a geopolitical weapon.

Sanctions, asset freezes, and the seizure of Russian reserves forced non-Western central banks to rethink counterparty risk.

My view:

This isn’t about yield anymore. It’s about sovereignty.

Gold has no issuer, no sanctions risk, no settlement gatekeepers.

USTs do.

SHANGHAI GOLD EXCHANGE RAISES SILVER MARGIN TO 20%

Daily price limit set at 19%
Effective from Dec 30 close
This is not routine risk management.

Margin hikes + tight price limits usually signal:
- Rising volatility expectations
- Stress in leveraged short positions
- Authorities preparing for disorderly moves

Silver liquidity is thinning
Watch Asia closely

Rumor circulating in metals markets

Unconfirmed reports suggest a major bullion bank may have run into serious trouble after large silver short positions were forced to unwind.

Here’s the timeline being discussed:

- Friday: chatter about a bullion bank struggling to meet margin requirements on sizable silver shorts

- Sunday night: unverified claims (via Hal Turner) say a systemically important bank failed a margin call

- Allegedly, the silver shorts were liquidated, followed by a $34B emergency liquidity injection via the Fed’s repo window

If true, this would fit a familiar pattern:

- Historic gold & silver short positions held by bullion banks, implicitly backstopped to avoid systemic fallout
- Repo liquidity would be the fastest way to stop a full-blown collapse.

Key detail to watch: Around 8:30am Monday, data may show whether a TBTF bank tapped overnight Fed repo liquidity in that ~$34B range.

Banks the market is quietly watching :

1. JPMorgan Chase ($JPM)
2. HSBC Holdings ($HSBC)
3. Scotiabank
4. BNP Paribas
5. UBS Group ($UBS)
6. Deutsche Bank ($DB)
7.Citigroup ($C)
8. Goldman Sachs ($GS)

Still a rumor, not confirmation

Will now simply wait for a rejection confirmation or a flip to catch a long to 94-95k.

New update from @CMEGroup

Margin hikes take effect after Dec 29 close, giving the market just 1–2 sessions to adjust. CME is clearly preparing for large moves or continuation risk, especially if liquidity breaks.

The tightening is selective:
- #Silver , palladium, and platinum see +13–20% margin jumps → thin liquidity, high leverage

- #GOLD is only mildly tightened → still viewed as relatively stable.

The real problem: fund cash is near record lows (~3.3% AUM, BofA). Many players can’t post more margin and will be forced to cut positions, not because of macro views, but because of cash constraints

Margin shock + cash shortage = forced deleveraging.
Expect technical volatility, especially in secondary

Most people try to predict the price. But how about earning yield + farming perp DEX points without caring about market direction?

That’s where delta-neutral farming on perp DEXs comes in

Delta-neutral = balancing long & short exposure so your P&L isn’t driven by price, but by funding, incentives, and execution efficiency

The problem:
Running delta-neutral across multiple perp DEXs is operationally heavy, constant hedging, funding monitoring, margin management…

👉That’s why I use @Nomina, Nomina unifies multiple perp DEXs into one interface, making it far easier to:

- hedge positions across venues
- automate delta-neutral setups
- track funding in real time
- manage multi-DEX margin & PnL cleanly
- capture yield with lower execution friction

My basic flow for delta-neutral farming:

1️⃣Choose an asset with high volume + high apr based on funding
2️⃣Long short perp of equal size, delta ≈ 0
3️⃣Let funding + incentives do the work
4️⃣Rebalance/close when needed (Nomina makes this seamless)
5️⃣Harvest yield without guessing market direction

Why I like this approach:

• Low directional risk
• Capital efficient when leverage is used responsibly
• Works exceptionally well in sideways markets
• Pairs perfectly with cross-DEX tools like Nomina

Not “risk-free,” but one of the most consistent yield plays if you know how to manage margin & volatility

If you're farming perp DEXs or building delta-neutral strategies, Nomina is quickly becoming one of the most useful tools this cycle.

Have you tried delta-neutral setups yet?

After experiencing enough disappointment from airdrops on Hyperevm although I’m still keeping a portion of my farming there I’m now shifting my focus more toward the #Solana ecosystem.

With the goal of holding stablecoins to earn yield, I chose @onrefinance because:

- @onrefinance is an on-chain reinsurance company that connects the $750B global reinsurance market with @solana DeFi by tokenizing diverse reinsurance pools.

- Backed by investors such as @ethena_labs, @SolanaVentures, and @Rockaway_X

👉 This gives me enough confidence to deposit and farm.

Current strategy:

- Deposit $USDC to receive $ONyc with an APY of 13.35%, and you can exit anytime by swapping back to $USDC on Orca or Raydium.

- Deposit $ONyc into Loopscale to earn 25.03% APY + 6x OnRe Points + Loopscale Points (currently considered the best strategy).

👉 Farming both projects’ airdrops while earning yield at the same time.

@hylo_so is a project building a stablecoin and a liquidation free leveraged product, backed by major investors such as @robotventures @colosseum @SolanaVentures

Hylo is currently running Season 0 with an XP points program to reward early users

Hold the assets provided by the project to earn XP:

- $xSOL x20
- $hyUSD x5
- others x1

👉Level up and earn additional crowns. Their utility isn’t clear yet and will be announced later.

My strategy:

- Mint $hyUSD because I prefer holding stablecoins + earning yield
- Adding $hyUSD liquidity on @ExponentFinance to earn x8 points and an extra 4.64% APY
- Avoid YT for now since I can’t properly value it yet

👉Farming airdrops from both projects.

Pretty good in the current market holding stablecoins, earning yield, and farming airdrops at the same time

Starting a new airdrop journey with @StandX_Official

Project featuring two main products: PerpDex and the $DUSD yield stablecoin has confirmed an upcoming airdrop

Simple farm:

- Hold $tDUSD: 1.2x points + 4.11% APR
- Add LP $DUSD / $USDC or $USDT: 1x / 1.2x points + LP fee

Example: Holding 100 $DUSD + 100 $USDT for 1 day = 220 points

👉No trading needed, just hold!

⚠️Note: LP tokens must be kept in your wallet (no restaking).

Major pools currently supported:

- BNB → PancakeSwap
- SOL → Raydium

👉I chose USDT pair on Pancakeswap since it’s generating the highest fees

Why I’m choosing this project:

- 0 VC, no investors (kinda like Hyperliquid😆)
- Real builders: team includes former Binance Futures and Goldman Sachs members
- Easy farming while holding stablecoins in the current market
