Arbitrum's back on my trending feed this morning — on a day when most alts aren't giving anyone a clear read.
That's the split I keep running into.
$ARB gets all the attention: ecosystem wallets, apps, the whole L2 lane. But Mantle's token is the one actually green on my board, up about 3% to roughly $0.42, while total crypto is slipping around 1% toward ~$2.2T. COIN and MSTR are both red too, so it's not like everyone's suddenly piling into L2s.
I used to treat trending and price as the same signal. Today they feel like two different channels — buzz around ecosystem names versus actual bids on one specific token. Same category, different scoreboard. On days like this I'd rather watch which one holds than assume they move together.
$MNT at ~$0.42, +3%, while
$ARB just owns the trending slot.
