implied vol spiked to 90% in february textbook capitulation bitcoin yardstick hit 0.40 the lowest ever miners stopped selling etfs pulled in over $2.5 billion in a month
every single metric that called previous bottoms is flashing right now $60k isn't a guess, it's where the math points
the weeks that look quiet on the surface are usually the ones that matter most looking back
last week active users dropped, token had some pressure, engagement softened. if you stopped there you'd think things were slowing down
but what actually happened was they launched s&p 500 perpetuals pushing deeper into real world assets
they did about $15b in volume heavily driven by commodities like gold silver and oil. grayscale filed for a hype etf which is a pretty clear signal of institutional conviction
this is the pattern that repeats with the best projects. short term metrics cool off while long term positioning gets dramatically stronger
most people only pay attention to the first part
the ones who catch both are usually the ones who end up right
the #Resolv hack is a perfect example of why minting mechanisms are the most dangerous part of any stablecoin
the collateral was there, the reserves were fine, but one exploit in how new tokens get created and suddenly someone prints 80 million usr from 200k usdc

> no brokerage app, no kyc, no waiting for market hours. it kind of changes how you think about owning stocks. and i'm already planning to pick up more xstocks in the next few days because holding different tickers from $50 each pushes your daily points way up
> let me break it down so you can set it up in minutes: open the telegram bot: @STONfi_bot your ton wallet swap any xstock for 50 usdt then boost your points 0 - swap another xstock for any amount and hold 2 xstocks of your choice
> as long as you hold 2 xstocks with a total value of $50+ in your wallet, your points increase every single day. bigger daily points means a bigger share of that $50,000 pool. invite up to 5 friends to multiply your reward even more
> the math is simple: more points, better prize. i already set mine up and i'm going deeper. write in the comments whether you managed to do everything according to my instructions curious who else is getting
here's what the extremely profitable cohort on #HyperLiquid uid looks like right now
68% short
$902m notional short vs $428m long
they're up $19m on btc shorts, $27m on eth shorts, $17m on sol shorts. these guys are eating
