#ZRO News as an exit point.


All four major announcements in 2026 became local peaks:
a peak on the day of the news or the next day, followed by a 25–47% pullback over 5–9 days.
• Zero announcement on 10.02: peak of 2.589 on 11.02, with $734 million in trading volume—the highest since May 2025—then 1.381 (−47%) after 8 days.
• ATLAS announcement on 25.08: peak of 1.345 that same day, then 0.978 (−27%) after 7 days.
• Mainnet date on 20.10: peak of 2.136 on 21.10, then 1.416 (−34%) after 9 days.
• 21X pilot on 04.11: peak of 1.948 on the day of the news, then 1.468 (−25%) after 5 days.
A large holder uses the news flow to sell into the crowd's buying rally.
Actual investor sales amount to about one-fifth of the monthly unlock, but they hit the market immediately after the date is announced.
