Honestly, I watched this chart for the whole morning, and the more I look, the more I think it’s kind of interesting. BTC has been ranging around 64,000 for a full seven days, with the amplitude squeezed so narrowly it makes you drowsy—but it’s precisely this kind of extreme compression that often signals a coming breakout. The 24-hour gain of +1.10% isn’t big, but combined with the funding rate falling back to a normal range, it suggests that the leverage has been cleared out almost enough. In my view, this structure of a bullish grind hasn’t finished playing out yet.
ETH is a bit weaker. At the 1,894 level it’s just moving sideways, and over seven days it’s still up +0.80%. Honestly, as long as BTC doesn’t break down, the odds that ETH catches up are pretty high—don’t rush to short it.
What truly excites me today is the top-gainers list. The coin RED is +24.08%—it shot straight up to 0.1046, with volume of 43M USDT. That kind of volume isn’t something retail investors can pile up. Its narrative is the oracle for yield-bearing collateral. Honestly, there aren’t many projects in the market that can clearly tell that story right now—RedStone is one of the frontrunners. Even more important: its funding rate is -0.2535%, meaning shorts are already overheated. In this kind of condition, the room for shorts to get squeezed is usually still quite large. My plan is to watch for a pullback to the 0.098–0.100 range. Put the stop-loss at 0.092. First target: 0.115. If the trend continues, 0.13 also isn’t out of the question. Personally, I think when price and volume rise together like this, pullbacks are an opportunity.
I’m also watching the coin GPS. It’s up +16.16%, climbing to 0.0172, with volume of 771M USDT—by far the most actively traded among all altcoins today. The Web3 user security track has been undervalued for a while, if I’m being honest. GoPlus’ permission management and user-driven security protocol are very practical. The funding rate at -0.0041% suggests it hasn’t reached an overheated state yet—there should still be room ahead. STAR is also not bad at +22.65%, but its funding rate at 0.0304% is a bit high. People chasing higher should pay a little attention to timing.
Let’s talk about the top losers next. VELVET is down -49.73%, and AIO is down -35.34%. These two are typical examples of a spike then a fade. I’ve seen a lot of people asking whether they can bottom-fish, but my view is: don’t rush to catch a falling knife. Even though AIO’s funding rate shows normal, a project that drops 35% in a day likely has problems with its chip distribution. In situations like this, staying on the sidelines is often smarter than entering.
On the trending search list, Pudgy Penguins is back, and SUI is also on the list—both are familiar names. They tend to become active whenever market sentiment warms up. As for ANSEM and AKE, these are new faces; I’m still studying their fundamentals, so I won’t take action yet.
Overall, my judgment is: when the Fear & Greed Index is at 50 and the biggest disagreement between bulls and bears is happening, that’s often when opportunities are most abundant. If BTC holds the 63,500 level, I’m confident we can look at the 65,500–66,000 range. In the altcoin space, the strength of RED and GPS shows that capital is actively seeking direction. At times like this, you need to dare to participate in the strong names—don’t go near the weak coins that keep sinking.
Oh, and tell me what you think: how far do you think this RED move can go—0.12 or 0.15? Drop your thoughts in the comments; I’ll see if there are friends who have the same mindset as mine.
