$KAIA just printed a serious move: up about 31% in 24h on top of a strong 7‑day and 30‑day uptrend. This is not random beta, it is a clean, catalyst‑driven run.

Here is the short version for CMC Community:
• Game utility catalyst: Kaia wallet was integrated into the new Web3 game “Magic Squad,” with gas abstraction so players can pay fees in BORA instead of holding KAIA. That lowers the friction for users coming in from LINE/Kakao‑style ecosystems and gives Kaia a more “real” consumer use case.
• Technical breakout: KAIA broke out of a multi‑month downtrend, ran from the $0.05 area to around $0.08+, with volume exploding and RSI firmly in bullish territory. That is the kind of breakout momentum traders look for, even if it starts to look a bit overbought short term.
• Network upgrade backdrop: The v2.1.0 upgrade (MEV auction support, performance tweaks) plus steady ecosystem moves (partners, listings, “stablecoin layer for Asia” narrative) give this pump a stronger fundamental backdrop than a pure hype spike.

For now, the key question is whether KAIA can hold above the $0.08 area on solid volume, or whether a 30% day invites enough profit‑taking to drag it back toward prior support. Not financial advice.

Livepeer $LPT quietly had a standout day.

LPT jumped about 20.8% in the last 24h, handily beating a mostly flat crypto market. The move lines up with a steady 7‑day uptrend and points to a clear, coin‑specific driver rather than just beta.

Here is the short version of what is going on:
• Roadmap catalyst: A new “Simplify Crypto Payments & Enable Local Gateway SDKs” milestone targeted for early February 2026 is on the roadmap, aiming to make it easier for video apps to plug into Livepeer. That kind of dev‑friendly change can boost network usage and demand for staking LPT ahead of launch.
• Technical rebound: Price bounced from a recent swing low around 2.77 into the mid‑3s, with RSI recovering from oversold and a big spike in volume. That looks like a mix of fresh buyers and short‑covering after a heavy downtrend, not just a random wick.
• Altcoin rotation: Altcoin‑season style metrics ticked higher this week, suggesting some capital is rotating off the majors into higher‑beta names. LPT fits that profile well: liquid enough to trade, small enough to move.

Key thing to watch now is whether LPT can hold above the 3.25–3.36 area on decent volume. Strong follow‑through there keeps the short‑term bull case intact; fading volume and a drop back toward 3.00 would signal this was more of a sharp relief pop than the start of a bigger leg.

LayerZero has been moving like the market is asleep and only the bots are watching. While majors just chop around, ZRO quietly turned into the coin everyone suddenly “needs a bag of.” 😅

Why is everyone chasing it now?

• First, the narrative is clean. Cross‑chain infra is back in focus, and LayerZero sits under a huge chunk of bridge and messaging flow. Every new chain or app that plugs into it feels like indirect demand for $ZRO , so people are basically buying the “plumbing” of the ecosystem, not just another meme.

• Second, the token finally looks trader‑friendly. There is a clear supply schedule, the big unlock overhang everyone was scared of is mostly behind us, and the team is tying the token to real protocol fees through buybacks. That combo (predictable supply + visible buy pressure) is like catnip for both traders and “sophisticated” funds. 😉

• Third, the airdrop drama weirdly helped. The whole proof‑of‑donation / points meta rage filtered out a lot of pure mercenary farmers. What’s left is a holder base that mostly understands the product and is willing to play the longer “interoperability” trade instead of insta‑dumping.

So yeah, ZRO is running because it hits three things at once: real infra, real revenue, and a cleaner holder set after the airdrop circus. As long as cross‑chain volume stays hot and new projects keep picking LayerZero as their messaging layer, a lot of people are going to treat dips as entries, not exits. 🚀

$SKR  doing a 3x in 24h put the “crypto phone token” straight into degen focus, but the real question is how much of this is staking mechanics versus real demand.

At launch, a big chunk of circulating SKR went straight into staking, which squeezed the liquid supply and helped push price up as new buyers chased a thin float. Yields in the 20–30% area are doing exactly what they are supposed to do: keep airdrop recipients from rage‑dumping and make sitting tight feel smarter than market selling.

The catch is that this only works for so long if it is mostly about APY. Early inflation means anyone not staking slowly gets diluted, so people feel forced to lock in just to stand still. That is fine while:
• A large share of tokens stays staked.
• Price holds up so rewards feel meaningful.
• The Seeker and Guardian ecosystem actually starts using SKR for something real.

Over time yields will likely compress once more Guardians and fees come in, and the hype around the airdrop cools off. If phone adoption, fees and real SKR use do not grow into that gap, the same tokenomics that support today’s rally can flip into a headwind.

So can SKR staking keep this rally alive? Short term, yes, staking plus a tight float can absolutely keep things elevated. Medium term, the chart will depend less on APY screenshots and more on whether Solana Mobile turns SKR into a token people need, not just a token people farm.

$BTC just did the boring but important thing: it filled the CME gap around 88K and bounced back toward ~90K (see the chart). That gap has been a magnet since the selloff, and once price finally tags it, the “unfinished business” argument is basically gone.

So what changed today?
The “Davos twist” felt like a quick risk-off pulse. When macro headlines hit, BTC usually moves like high beta tech first, narrative second. The dump to 88K looked more like positioning getting flushed than some new crypto-specific problem.

Now the question everyone’s asking: can Trump’s speech push BTC higher?

Possibly, but only if the market gets something concrete:
• Bullish reaction: anything that reads as pro-growth, pro-risk, or supportive of US crypto industry tends to lift sentiment fast. If BTC can reclaim the low 90Ks and hold, you can get a squeeze into the mid 90Ks.
• Sell-the-news reaction: if it’s vague, or the market’s already positioned for “good news,” you often get a pop that fades. This tape has punished excitement lately.

Levels that matter from here:
• 88K is now the line. If we lose it again, the bounce was just gap-fill relief.
• 92K to 94K is the first real resistance zone. Break and hold that, and the move has legs. Fail it, and we’re still in chop.

I’d watch how BTC behaves after the speech, not on the first candle. The first candle is emotion, the next few hours are the real vote. But indeed Bitcoin looks like it is trending back up to 90k! 🚀

$BTC just flashed a classic "death cross" and the doom calls are getting loud again. 📉

If you look at the first chart, the 50 day EMA (orange) rolled under the 200 day SMA (yellow) right after that sharp drop from the mid 90Ks to about 90.5K. That is the textbook death cross setup.

But here is the thing: death crosses are usually late.
They show up after damage is already done, not before it. So the signal is real, but it is not a crystal ball.

So where does the "58K risk" idea even come from?
From pure downside math and past behavior. 58K would mean another roughly 35 to 40 percent down from here. That is not impossible in crypto, but it would require a full risk off leg, not just a bad weekend.

What the charts are actually saying right now (based on the images):
• Price broke down hard and is sitting around 90K (first image).
• The 200 day line is now overhead around the low to mid 90Ks, which turns into resistance on bounces.
• BTC dominance is still around 54.9% (second image). That usually means alts are getting hit harder, and money is hiding in BTC rather than rotating into risk.
• On the longer view, BTC is only about -4% from where it started the year (third image). So this is ugly short term, but it is not "end of cycle" by itself.

How low can BTC really go from here?
I would think in steps, not one scary number:
• 90K area
This is the obvious psychological level. If it cannot hold, it invites the next stop run.
• High 80Ks to mid 80Ks
This is where you often see the first real dip buying if this is just a leverage flush.
• Around 80K
If we start closing below there, the narrative shifts from "pullback" to "trend break" and that is when the 60s and 50s become a real discussion.

My take: the death cross is a warning sign, but the bigger tell is whether BTC can reclaim the low to mid 90Ks and stop making lower highs. If bounces keep failing under that 200 day line, downside targets start to get taken seriously. If BTC reclaims and holds, death cross fear often fades fast. :/

Can we dream for once? 😍

$ADA at 50% of $ETH would be at 5 bucks. +1316% 🚀

Is 50% a stretch or realistic? 🤔

$BTC continues to slump. After a bit of sideways consolidation yesterday, we seem to re-enter a dump phase. $ETH and Alts of course hit even harder. Tariff and war fears weigh on markets. 📉

Question is: for how long? If we go into panick mode like last year April we can drop hard. Back into the 80k range for sure, maybe even have a 7 handle in front?

What do you think? 🤔

Polygon vs Optimism 2026 YTD snapshot.

• $POL : +36.4%
• $OP : +20.6%

Peak spread was >> 64.3%
But after the massive spike by POL in the second week of Jan, Optimism managed to partially close the gap, such that Current spread narrowed to >> 15.8% 💸

What do you think how the Layer 2s will performe this year?

$TRUMP daily returns from 2025. Some ultra strong days, but also a lot of red.
If you had held the top 10 trading days you would have been up +870% 🚀
While if you missed them, you'd have been DOWN 98% (!!) 📉

Quite the contrast...

$SUI getting hit hard by the risk-off mode due to Trumps greenland tariff battle with the EU... 📉
Basically in a straight line it lost over 20cents from 1.77 USD to 1.56 USD, since then it has been trending sideways.

Question is will the liquidations breaking support lead to further sell offs? 🤔

$BTC got smacked today and once more the whales dumping were the cause... 4 billion to be precise. 📉

Reports showed a wave of big selling across major players and exchanges, and the market reacted the way it usually does in a levered tape: fast drop, then forced liquidations. Around $870M in total liquidations were reported, mostly longs, which explains why the move felt so sharp 😅

So can BTC reclaim 97K or do we sink to 90K?
How we would get back to 97K:
• BTC needs to reclaim the mid 90Ks first and actually hold it, not just wick it
• 97K has been a hard ceiling recently, so a clean break needs real spot buying and lower leverage, otherwise it is just another pop that fades
• Watch if open interest cools while price rises, that is healthier

How we end up at 90K:
• If BTC keeps failing below 95K and bounces look weak, sellers stay in control
• 92K-ish is the first “line in the sand” support area. If that breaks, 90K becomes the obvious magnet and it can get ugly fast because stops stack there

My take: this move looks more like a leverage flush plus big supply hitting the book, not the start of a new bear market. But until BTC can get back above 95K and build higher lows, 97K is a stretch and 90K stays on the table 👀

Bloody start into the week for $SOL . Falling over 6%, much more than ETH or $BTC BTC. 📉
Fears of a renewed tarriff war between the USA and EU spark the sell-off. Weirdly, the crypto markets didn't react over the weekend even though they were trading...
Is the crypto market not mature enough to price in news and has to wait for the stock market to open?
Or what is your explanation? 🤔

$DASH keeps grinding up. another 12% over the last 24h. While peers like $ZEC were stagnating. But WHY?
Seemingly still repercussions from the bad news from the Z-cash side (dev team leaving) combined with the massive break out we saw, i.e. still momentum building.

What do you think? How much further to run? 📈🤔

If $SOL had the market cap of $BNB we would already be back at 230 bucks. 🚀

Question is: why are we not? 🤔

$MANA rose only half as much as $SAND over the last days.
Does that spell weakness or catchup opportunity?

Bitcoin is back above $95K and the timing is not a coincidence.

A softer CPI print took some heat out of the inflation story, rate cut expectations perked up, and $BTC immediately caught a bid. Price jumped over 3.5% and is now pressing into the same $95K to $97K zone that has smacked down rallies for weeks.

So is $100K back on the table?

It is, but only if this move actually sticks.

The bull case:
• Macro headwind eases, risk appetite improves, and BTC finally gets acceptance above the $95K to $97K ceiling.
• If we get a clean close above that zone and a successful retest, $100K becomes less of a meme and more of a magnet.

The stall case:
• We have seen this movie before. BTC pushes into resistance, everyone gets excited, then it fades as sellers unload into strength.
• If BTC cannot hold $95K and slips back into the range, $100K gets delayed and we go right back to chop.

The tell is simple: does BTC build higher lows above $95K, or do we get another fast rejection wick.

#btc100knext?

$SAND Sandbox revival. Up over 25% in the last 24hours, showing real strength. Like $AXS back from the dead?
Indeed the reasons are similar:
- mainly the technical break-out , leading to follow-up momentum
- as well as the overall sector rotation towards metaverse, accompanied by real volume increase.

Question is: how long will it last? 🤔

$AXS pumping so hard, it is breaking out of its Bollinger Bands!
🚀 Hot stuff. But why?
two main reasons:
(1) strategic shift to LESS token inflation
paired with
(2) the technical breakout creating massive momentum that is being piled on by traders.

How high can Axie go? 🤔
