$CAP This move from $0.07 to $0.10, with a 31.55% gain in 24 hours and $122M in trading volume, looks like a classic momentum-driven short squeeze on the surface. But I’ve spotted a signal others are overlooking: on-chain stablecoin flows don’t line up with the exchange deposit patterns. While the price moved sideways around $0.0997, several newly created addresses kept buying in the lower range. The orders were small but extremely frequent, suggesting someone was accumulating through split TWAP orders rather than retail traders chasing the rally. At the same time, the number of CAP deposits to exchanges dropped noticeably, while a batch of withdrawal addresses appeared that had never interacted before. This combination of “slowing deposits + dispersed withdrawals” usually isn’t a sign of an impending sell-off; it looks more like tokens moving from short-term hot wallets to cold addresses.
The second thing I noticed was unusual activity from large holders. During the rally from $0.07 to $0.10, an address near the top of the holder rankings reduced its position by about 30% around $0.085, but then placed a large buy order around $0.092 to support the price. This “sell first, then support” pattern doesn’t look like a complete exit. It looks more like reducing the cost basis through swing trading while creating the illusion of selling pressure. Given that $122M in trading volume is already quite high for a small-cap token, I see two possible scenarios: first, if on-chain withdrawal addresses keep increasing and exchange balances continue to fall, CAP could see another surge above $0.12; second, if those new wallets start sending tokens back to exchanges, $0.10 will be the short-term top. At this point, the on-chain signals are worth watching more closely than the candlestick chart. What do you think?
