Everyone expects a moonshot… but CME listings usually play out in phases, not straight pumps.

📉 Phase 1: “Sell the News” (Days 1–10)

CME futures = hedging tools, not spot buying.

• Volatility spikes

• Weak hands shaken out

• Price chops sideways or dips

This is where retail gets bored.

📊 Phase 2: Smart Money Positioning (Days 10–20)

Institutions don’t FOMO they build quietly.

• Open interest rises

• Liquidity deepens

• Price stabilizes above key levels

This phase decides the winner.

🚀 Phase 3: The Divergence (Days 20–30)

🔗 LINK → Strongest setup

If futures volume builds, LINK likely breaks out first. Oracles + TradFi = perfect match.

🔵 ADA → Slow burn

Needs ecosystem news to follow through. Futures alone won’t do it.

XLM → Wildcard

Smallest cap = biggest moves. Could surprise fast… or fade just as fast.

🔥 Hot Take:

CME futures don’t pump coins immediately they separate real assets from hype.

💬 Question for everyone: Which one sees real institutional positioning first $LINK , $ADA , or $XLM ?
