Alpenglow is locked for Oct 21 — price is still getting wrecked.
Finality collapses to ~150ms.
18 months of work. One-slot migration.
Meanwhile $SOL
is stuck near $104 after hot CPI (3.7%) triggered another long-liquidation cascade.
Alts lagging hard. $ETH
and $XRP
bleeding more than the majors.
Upgrade catalyst or just more noise while leverage gets flushed?
