2) VELVETUSDT — Bottom Formation Loading 📈
VELVET has experienced heavy selling, but the chart shows signs of stabilization.
✅ Price holding near support zone
✅ MACD histogram improving from negative territory
✅ Selling pressure appears exhausted
✅ Strong bounce from the lower Bollinger area
A reclaim of 0.466–0.50 could trigger a stronger recovery move toward 0.56+.
Bullish view: This looks like a potential reversal zone where patient buyers may step in.

The crashing wasn’t random — it’s a textbook distribution + liquidity sweep.
Technical signals that confirmed the trap:
1. RSI + Momentum Divergence
• BTC made a higher high near $70K
• RSI & MACD made lower highs
➡ Momentum was dying before price fell
2. EMA Rejection
• Price was stretched far above the 50 & 100 EMA
• Mean reversion kicked in once $70K failed
3. Volume Profile (POC Shift)
• Heavy volume node sits around $61K–$63K
• Market naturally pulls back to high-liquidity zones
5. Fair Value Gap (FVG) Fill
• The fast pump left inefficiencies between $62K–$64K
• Price is now retracing to “rebalance” the chart
Levels That Decide the Trend
• $70.5K → breakout & trend continuation
• $66.8K → local pivot
• $63K → volume magnet
• $60–61K → bull structure support
• Below $58K → short-term bear control
🧠 Conclusion
This is not a market crash — it’s a leverage reset.
Smart money already positioned. Retail panic just provides the entry

The $AZTEC token sale marks a major shift towards true decentralization. With the upcoming TGE, we're completing an innovative economic system built for private, decentralized block creation from day one. Dive into the whitepaper for details! #Crypto #Blockchain #DeFi
The TGE of the privacy sector is weak 👀 lol Aztec is seen as a legitimate rival standing in Intmax's way, so $3B is mandatory. Zama will also eventually support SOL, so it's an exciting prospect—but that one’s also a $6B obligation. While these senior players are dragging their feet, even if $ITX does its TGE, $0.1 (100M) is tough.
New investment worth a s/o: @DeriveXYZ Main backer: @variantfund (bought a large stake in Derive) Key things to know ↓ • What they do: Onchain options exchange where you trade crypto options (BTC, ETH calls/puts). Think Deribit but you control your own funds instead of depositing on a centralized exchange • The gap they're filling: Everyone built perpetual futures onchain. Options trading stayed stuck on centralized exchanges. Derive built the infrastructure to bring options onchain with real liquidity • Track record: $20B volume, $7M revenue, 5 years with zero hacks, 20+ teams building on the platform • Institutional appeal: Partnered with Strands so institutions can trade on Derive while keeping assets with their existing custodian. Solves compliance issues • Roadmap: Expanding beyond BTC/ETH to altcoin options. Adding more custodian integrations. Building "volatility layer" for onchain markets • Derive's advantages: Professional trading interface, institutional custody solutions, proven infrastructure, competitive fees Main competitors: • Deribit: Centralized exchange, controls 80% of crypto options (Coinbase bought for $2.9B). You have to trust them with your funds • Aevo: Decentralized like Derive, runs on its own L2, but liquidity is thinner • Panoptic, Dopex, Syndr: Smaller decentralized options platforms still finding product-market fit • Why Derive wins: Uses orderbook like professional traders expect (not AMM), works with institutional custodians, proven over 5 years, better fee structure
