Market Trend
BTC is consolidating at the high level, with altcoins diverging and moving upward.
U.S. stocks were mixed on Friday, while oil prices fell for the third straight day.
Market Highlights
1. After BTC broke above 80K, it maintained strength. However, trading volume declined over the weekend, and it has not yet continued to break 82K. Funds have shifted toward high-volatility altcoins.
2. The L1 concept led the rally: NEAR is up about 19%, AVAX up about 16%, and SUI up about 11%. NEAR intents cross-chain liquidity rose to roughly $169 million; it was also reported that the New York Stock Exchange has tested Avalanche technology for about a year.
3. Small-cap SAGA surged about 48%, with gains of over 100% in a week. No clear project-level catalysts have been found yet. The move is mainly driven by social buzz and altcoin rotation. With thin liquidity, chasing price increases carries significant risk.
4. RWA and L2 remain strong. ONDO and ARB are up about 6%, STRK and AR are up about 7%, OP is up about 4%, and the SEC’s tokenized-stock exemption continues to gain momentum.
5. AI-related assets rebounded. RENDER and GRT are up about 9%, FET up about 3%, and TAO is slightly higher. Capital is spreading from mainstream AI coins to smaller- and mid-cap targets.
6. Solana ecosystem diverged: JUP is up about 12%, PUMP up about 4%, but RAY is basically flat. SOL itself is holding around $112.
7. Privacy coins stayed strong: ZEC is up about 5% and up about 45% over the past week, while XMR is up about 4%; DASH saw a modest pullback.
8. Small-cap coins are splitting at the extremes: FTT, EPIC, and ONE are rising, while G is plunging about 38%. CELR is down about 24%, and BANK and LSK are down about 8%–10%.
Today’s Fear & Greed Index: 70 (Grade: Greed)
