The erstwhile-popular memecoin , $PWEASE, finds both its market cap and holder base sinking, with what appears to be a very rapid shift in sentiment across the community. For instance, over just the last 11 days, the holder base seems to have shrunk by more than 9 percent. Of course, not a lot seems to be going on with the $PWEASE cap itself: As the cap drops in what seems to be a pretty effortless slide, the trading and liquidity around it seem to drop pretty parallel, leaving us to wonder if $PWEASE is done or if it’s got some life left. A Sharp Drop in Holder Count and Market Cap A little more than a week ago, $PWEASE had a strong base of 25,374 holders. However, that count has since taken a nosedive to 23,082, with 2,292 holders deciding to leave the ship. This represents a remarkable 9.03% drop in the count of holders, which could indicate a turncoat signal for the memecoin—either a loss of confidence or a pivot toward more stable investments as the market becomes less favorable. Once the memecoin market turned into a talk show, $PWEASE reached a peak market capitalization of $54 million. But that peak has been short-lived, and the setup now shows a total of $6 million, which is a decline of 88.89% from the ATH. That setup alone raises some serious questions about the setup in terms of how long it can actually last. The decrease in market cap is a clear sign of the shift in market sentiment around $PWEASE. What was once a thriving and optimistic community is now contending with a much more pessimistic outlook. In the fast-moving world of memecoins, such rapid fluctuations are not unknown, but the extent of the drop is hard to overlook. Market Liquidity and Trading Volume Are Draining Adding to the complexity, the cash available for trades using $PWEASE is also very restricted. This rarity is represented by the current liquidity of $358,000, which amounts to only 5.97% of the coin’s market capitalization. By this measure, which makes the PWEASE seem a little underwhelming, its liquidity is barely touching the surface of 6% of the cash that could be available in the total market for PWEASE. 11 days ago, $PWEASE holders count was 25,374 ATM, holders count is 23,082 2,292 holders have exited the memecoin The holders count dropped by -9.03% PWEASE got to an ATH of $54m Mcap and is now at $6m mcap indicating a -88.89% drop in market cap. Market sentiment have… pic.twitter.com/uDbm61SSxP — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 2, 2025 For $PWEASE, or any token, liquidity is a basic requirement for making way for smooth market activity. Without adequate liquidity, traders will find it hard to buy or sell the token without significantly changing its price. This situation can lead to buying and selling at unfavorable prices. Most of us have been there before. You are trying to sell some of your assets, but the market is so thin that the price is going crazy, and you’re getting offered amounts that are below what the price should be in a semi-stable market. So you’re facing the decision to sell at a loss or not sell. Furthermore, insufficient liquidity frequently discourages additional investors from entering the market because they are concerned about the ease with which trades can be executed and the danger of slippage. Thus, the continuing insufficient liquidity exacerbates the already nasty problem that $PWEASE faces and makes it even more difficult for the coin to rehabilitate itself and regain the confidence of investors. The Shift in Sentiment: From Optimism to Pessimism $PWEASE was once seen as a potential memecoin with tremendous prospects. Its market sentiment, however, has taken a sharp turn. The price had been moving in a favorable direction, accomplishing a near 45 percent surge from around 272.5 units to 395.4. But since then, it’s taken a nosedive down almost to its original price again. This kind of behavior, especially in a price drop that looks so much like a “buy the rumor, sell the news” scenario, ought to make even the most loyal traders take a good long look at their positions again. Although some may cling to the notion that $PWEASE can bounce back, the truth is that the market has left behind the once-optimistic highs that defined the coin. The falling number of holders, the dramatically reduced market cap, and the lack of liquidity all point to a situation where more and more investors are looking in the opposite direction. They’re not just unimpressed; they’re evidently worried and searching for better and safer opportunities in the volatile memecoin market. Can $PWEASE Recover? The future of $PWEASE is doubtful, and it may be easy to relegate it to the side, but what do we know about the memecoin market? In the best and the worst of market situations, it is known for being unpredictable. And that unpredictability signed the memecoin’s death warrant on several occasions, apparently, but only to see it rise from the ashes at others. The latest pricing moment may feel like a dose of the latter, but it still has too much unpredictability written all over it to condemn it; that is, if we are condemning anything, which so far, the authors of the White Paper from the memecoin have not done. Nevertheless, the limited liquidity and the current downward trend in holder count present a hard-to-hard-to-gleam future for $PWEASE. Unless a major sea change occurs to restore confidence in the memecoin, which trades for well under a penny, we see it as unlikely that its value will head up, which renders the prospect of profit for its holders bleak. Conclusion: A Rocky Road Ahead The significant drop in market capitalization and number of holders for $PWEASE, coupled with a complete lack of liquidity, makes the outlook for this memecoin rather bleak. A rebound, of course, is still within the realm of possibility. But the current market conditions suggest a recovery is far from certain. In fact, it’s likely many traders will be watching this coin closely for any sentiment or liquidity changes before even considering entering or exiting a position. As it stands, $PWEASE seems to be trudging down a bumpy road. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

Starting April 1, 2025, Ethereum (ETH) is in a risky spot, with a big chunk of its holders apparently underwater. The latest on-chain data show that only 25% of Ethereum holders are currently in profit at current prices, with an incredible 74% sitting on unrealized losses. This paints a potentially dire situation, suggesting the market is at a tipping point where it could go either way, with holders either giving up or re-upping. Ethereum On-Chain Snapshot – April 1, 2025. Only 25% of ETH holders are in profit at current prices. 74% are holding at a loss, a potential setup for capitulation… or accumulation? Time Held: 23% > 1 year 74% held 1–12 months 3% Most holders… pic.twitter.com/rS1qhu2DpG — IT Tech (@IT_Tech_PL) April 1, 2025 A Struggling Majority: The Challenge of Holding Ethereum The second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization—Ethereum—has faced a good deal of volatility over the past few months. As a result, a large number of its holders are currently under water. As of this writing, according to the latest on-chain data, only one-quarter of Ethereum holders are currently in profit. A staggering 74% of holders are experiencing losses. This stark contrast between profit and loss could set the stage for an important turning point in the market. When a large percentage of the holders are in the red, two possible scenarios could emerge: either we could witness a widespread capitulation, with holders selling off their positions and driving the price down even further, or we could see a significant accumulation phase, with the majority of investors choosing to hold through the downturn and waiting for a price recovery. For those experiencing a loss, the choice to maintain or divest is a momentous one. Many intermediate-term Ethereum holders are sitting on investments that have markedly devalued since their entry points. With the market still not reflecting a clear directional sentiment, there’s a palpable tension as holders contemplate the decision to either ride or die with the Ethereum price. Alas, for some, that ride could mean further stomach-churning losses before any potential comeback. Holder Behavior: Insights from Time-Held Data The information also illuminates the ordinary actions of Ethereum holders. Based on an on-chain snapshot, most Ethereum holders (74%) have been in possession of their assets for just 1 to 12 months. This group of holders forms the colossal market that is Ethereum, and any price movements that may occur in the future could very well be influenced by their actions. Most of these holders have been counting on Ethereum to come back to profitable conditions, and the current situation is a tough one for them. If the price of Ethereum keeps lurching along like it has been, there’s an increase in risk that some of those holders could throw in the towel and sell. Those would be tons of not-so-easy sells, since Ethereum doesn’t seem to have any buyers right now. And if all those holders who are already on the verge of capitulating actually do go ahead and capitulate, that would put even more downward pressure on Ether’s price. Nonetheless, there’s another scenario possible: Ethereum’s price might find resilient support in the holders who have bought in more recently (those holding from just before the current downturn started). These mid-term holders largely believe in Ethereum’s potential; they aren’t looking to make quick flips but are instead in it for what they see as an inevitable longer-term uptrend. And when Ethereum finally does decide to stage a comeback, it might find a very solid base of support built by these mid-term holders, with no immediate risk of being knocked back down. The data also portray that 23% of holders of Ethereum have held their assets for more than a year. These long-term holders have probably seen and withstood the previous fluctuations in Ethereum’s price and are perhaps in a better position than most to resist the siren song of selling. They have likely been around long enough to experience the up and down cycles of the market, which could give them more conviction to stay in the course of the next bull run. At the same time, just 3% of Ethereum holders have held their positions for not even one month. This group consists mainly of speculators (more likely than not) and, in any case, short-term traders. They should be seen as the very likely first line of defense—the very first possible obstacle—that price movements encounter on their way up and on their way down. Will Ethereum Holders Capitulate or Accumulate? The future of Ethereum’s price depends mainly on the actions of these holders of mid- and long-term. Will they capitulate when the price is under pressure and sell into what looks like a tumbling market, thereby triggering further price declines? Or will they decide to see the current market conditions as a grossly discounted opportunity to buy and hold Ethereum, making it more likely that the cryptocurrency will hold up during this current period of volatility? Right now, the market is at a crossroads, and the decision-making of Ethereum holders will weigh heavily on where it goes next. There’s certainly a risk of capitulation, but the very large number of long-term holders makes me think that Ethereum has a really strong foundation of supporters who could push-bounce Ethereum back to the upside if we were to find ourselves in a recovery scenario. Moreover, the development of the Ethereum ecosystem, together with macro repricing at the I- formed level for equities, could serve as tectonic plate catalysts for recovery. Conclusion: A Market in Flux On-chain data from Ethereum indicates a market at a critical juncture. Most holders are well in the red, and recent price action has given no reason to believe that recovery is right around the corner. All of this creates an environment where two paths lie ahead. In the weeks to come, the market will decide whether to: 1. Capitulatory sell-off? Trade volume has picked up in recent weeks, and along with it, the number of unique accounts that are either buying or selling has surged. A trend this pronounced can often precede a significant price movement. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes believes that Bitcoin ( BTC ) will soon start printing rallies due to one main catalyst. In a new blog post, Hayes says that Fed chair Jerome Powell’s recent comments on monetary policy indicate market liquidity will start to increase, which has ignited massive Bitcoin rallies in the past. According to Hayes, the Fed will start to transition from quantitative tightening (QT) to quantitative easing (QE), beginning with its policy on US Treasury bonds. QE is a monetary policy used by central banks to prop up the economy by printing more money to accumulate financial assets. New money flows into the financial system, boosting spending and investments. “Powell proved last [month] that fiscal dominance is alive and well. Therefore, I am confident QT, at least regarding Treasuries, will stop in the short to medium term. Going further, Powell stated that while the Fed may maintain mortgage back security runoff, it will net buy Treasuries. Mathematically, that keeps the Fed balance sheet constant; however, that is Treasury QE. Bitcoin will scream higher once this is formally announced. Furthermore, because the banks and the Treasury demand it, the Fed will grant the SLR (Supplementary Leverage Ratio) exemption for the banks, which is another form of Treasury QE.” Hayes believes Bitcoin remains on track to hit $250,000 by the year’s end if the Fed shifts to QE. “If my analysis of the Fed’s major pivot from QT to QE for Treasuries is correct, then Bitcoin hit a local low of $76,500 last month, and now we begin the ascent to $250,000 by year-end. Of course, this is not an exact science, but using the gold example, if I had to place a bet on whether I thought Bitcoin would hit $76,500 or $110,000 first, I would bet on the latter. Even if US stocks continue falling in reaction to tariffs, a collapse in earnings expectations, and or foreigner demand waning, I am confident that the odds favor Bitcoin continuing to climb higher.” Bitcoin is trading for $82,702 at time of writing, down 3.2% in the last 24 hours.

The world of cryptocurrency derivatives is rapidly changing, yet Bitcoin options remain a beacon for institutional interest. Today’s market experienced what may well be one of the largest options block trades executed in some time—an enormous purchase of put options set to expire on April 25, 2025. These options, over 1,000 BTC worth, have yet again brought to the fore the looming question for any market concerned about such an event: Bitcoin’s future price direction. And not insubstantially, seeing as this transaction, valued at nearly $100 million, seems to speak with a pretty loud and bearish voice. A Deep Dive into the Largest Block Trade The day’s largest block deal concerned the purchase of put options at a $60,000 strike price. These options will not expire until almost two years from now, in April 2025. The deal amassed more than 1,000 BTC, with a notional value well in excess of $100 million. This huge buy could represent an extreme form of risk hedging (not likely) or highly leveraged speculation (more likely), with the buyer positioning for a big decline in Bitcoin’s price. To turn a profit on this trade, the price of Bitcoin would have to tumble by more than 30% from its current perch. Due to the volatility that’s part and parcel of the crypto market, such a move is far from impossible. Still, it would take a big shift in market sentiment to make it happen. Bitcoin is currently trading at well over $60,000, making this a deep out-of-the-money (OTM) option and paying approximately $100,000 for the privilege to hedge in this way seems, at first, to not be a very cost-effective approach. BTC Options Block Daily Report Today's Largest Block Today's largest options Block trade was the purchase of BTC puts expiring April 25, 2025, with a strike price of $60,000, accumulating more than 1,000 BTC, with a notional face value of nearly $100 million, and a deep… — Greeks.live (@GreeksLive) April 2, 2025 Risk-Return Ratio: A Cautious Approach Even though the size and the scale of this trade have caught the eyes of market observers, it’s important to note the risk-return ratio for this particular block trade is quite low. It’s a big trade, and the trade is quite likely a hedge in part, quite possibly for a major Bitcoin bull who needs protection while he/she’s fully invested. More likely than not, this block purchase is part of a broader downside risk management strategy. For institutional investors, trades of this magnitude often function as protective positions within their portfolios. It is probable that they are using put options as an insurance policy against potential market declines, given the inherent volatility of cryptocurrencies. This hedging strategy is ostensibly designed to offer some level of protection in the event of a sharp correction or a sustained bearish trend. The premium paid, while high, may be considered by some an acceptable cost for the risk management cover that such an unpredictable market demands. Bearish Sentiment Gains Ground Besides this large block trade, the overall Bitcoin options market indicates a shift toward bearish sentiment. In the previous month, our major institutional players have become net buyers of put options. This is a sign that these types of investors are positioning themselves for a downturn in Bitcoin’s price. In other words, they believe its current value is unsustainable and are profiting from fall. What is particularly notable is that these trades are occurring after the end of the quarterly delivery period. Are those market participants not adjusting their positions in the way they usually do when we move from one quarter to the next? If not, why not? The conclusion of the quarter is often a point at which market participants recalibrate their positions based on any new information that might be affecting the market. Protective Positions and Growing Hesitation While Bitcoin holds firm in the market, it looks as though caution is surfacing among investors. The protective positions now being taken speak volumes about the current sentiment, which is clearly shifting away from the previous ‘all systems go’ as we were rocketing into price discovery kind of vibe. One of the most obvious signs is the regular purchase of huge blocks of put options, which, when you look at the notional amounts involved, seem to indicate a lot of concern. This careful outlook has become much more distinct in recent days, when market participants have started to accept that Bitcoin’s price could, indeed, see significant challenges over the next few months. What has us so concerned, and in such a deep deflationary state of mind? Well, it’s a few different factors informing our judgment at the moment. First, we’re well aware that the use of put options among institutional investors has been on the rise. And this is significant, because it suggests the mindset of many institutional investors has shifted from buy-and-hold to being much more prepper-like. Conclusion: A Market on Edge The market for options on Bitcoin is giving off strong signals that investor sentiment is becoming more and more negative. Today’s big block trade, along with the upswing in the broader trend of activity in put options, underscores this bearishness. Even if these trades might just reflect some new risk management protocols being put in place by institutional investors—rather than a complete pivot to bearish speculation—the growing concern being expressed certainly seems noteworthy. For put option traders and investors, the way of using put options is on the rise. That’s a warning sign. It means a lot of folks expect Bitcoin’s price to have some significant challenges in the near term. And we’re not talking about the short, short term. These put traders are hanging on to their options for months, or buying them for months and gifting them to their friends. Put options allow you to hedge against a downturn, which is what many seem to be doing. And Bitcoin’s put-call ratio-often used as a barometer of market sentiment-has risen to its highest level in over a year. Disclosure: This is not trading or investment advice.

From March 19 to March 31, Solana’s ($SOL) market saw not-so-subtle changes in supply distribution that appear to have come straight from the hands of some not-so-happy investors. As the price of Solana swung about, a portion of supply that had been just sitting there took a hike and freed up some not-so-profits; a nearby cohort, however, used the opportunity of the Solana swing to make some good ol’ purchases, dragging us back toward the levels of support we found in early 2023. Shifts in Supply Distribution: Profit-Taking and Support Strengthening Over the span of these two weeks, Solana’s price moved up and down. Significantly, the token’s price hit a peak of $147.49. But the how and why of the price movement provide some clues as to what we might expect in the near future—especially when considering the supply distribution patterns of the token. And for context, this behavior pattern hasn’t just been confined to Solana; several other large-cap altcoins have exhibited similar actions. Between Mar 19 and Mar 31, the share of $SOL supply last moved at: $123.89 rose from 3.69% to 3.73% $144.54 rose from 4.2% to 4.5% $147.49 fell from 2.08% to 1.98% This suggests some profit-taking or distribution near recent highs, with supply migrating into lower cost… https://t.co/WEknpNF77N pic.twitter.com/STW2nMfhHb — glassnode (@glassnode) April 1, 2025 At the upper end of the scale, the amount of Solana at the $123.89 price level increased from 3.69% to 3.73%. More of the tokens were situated there in this latest time frame than in the previous one. This obviously speaks to some kind of accumulation or holding pattern at that price level. And as a next step in the deductive reasoning here, it seems to speak to confidence in the price itself and in Solana’s performance around that price level. At the $144.54 level, the share of Solana’s supply moved up from 4.2% to 4.5%. This seems to reflect some level of price accumulation at this range, as investors capitalize on the recent bullish price action and establish themselves well ahead of what looks to be some key resistance levels. What this means structurally is that there is likely a wide net of Solana holders positioned just beneath recent highs, maintaining buy-side interest as prices rise. Not all price points appeared to be seeing accumulation. At $147.49, Solana’s supply dipped a bit from 2.08% to 1.98%. This indicated that a bit of profit taking was probably happening as Solana’s price was nearing its recent highs. Supply at this price point dropped, and it seemed that some investors who had been long Solana at much lower price points were cashing out as the price appreciated. This is also a critical indicator of sentiment and behavior within the Solana investor base. A supply drop at this level also potentially presages a distribution phase, where the base of investors holding Solana is decreasing. Key resistance levels ahead for #Solana $SOL : • $135.70 • $144.40 • $165.20 Watch these closely! Clearing each could signal a strong continuation of the uptrend. pic.twitter.com/JDjWtOjUep — Ali (@ali_charts) April 1, 2025 Solana’s Strengthening Support Levels Even with the profit-taking and distribution taking place at recent highs, Solana’s price has a solid support structure at the current range’s lower bounds. This is good for investors and traders, as it suggests that the price levels toward the lower bounds of the range are increasingly being viewed as attractive by buyers. Support at these lower levels is vital for the price of Solana maintaining any semblance of stability because it prevents the price from plummeting further during times of volatility. Solana can hold its value pretty well within this range, which gives off the impression that buyers are still quite interested at these levels. This kind of stability almost gives the sense that the token has found its footing. It almost makes one wonder if it’s now going to be just a case of whether buyers are going to keep showing up at these levels for Solana to structure favorably for continued upside. Price stays above key support levels? Then the bulls have a way more favorable setup! Key Resistance Levels: The Path Ahead for Solana In terms of near-term price movement, Solana has significant resistance ahead that it must overcome. The first resistance level is around $135.70. If Solana can push up through here and maintain upward price pressure, it would signify not just an uptrend resuming, but quite likely an ending to Solana’s recent consolidation period. The next main level of resistance is at $144.40, which is near where Solana has run into selling pressure lately. A sustained move above this level seems necessary to confirm Solana has the strength to keep pushing higher. If the price can break through this resistance, it might be signaling the potential for some further gains. The price level to watch is $165.20. This point represents a big obstacle for Solana, and getting beyond it would almost certainly mean the continuation of the uptrend, with Solana’s price potentially heading toward new all-time highs. The chart below shows Solana aiming to overcome not only $165.20 but also a series of resistance levels above that threshold. Charting Solana over the past several months reveals something of a macro get-above-and-stay-above pattern. Conclusion: Watch for Key Price Movements As Solana’s market keeps evolving, the balance between support and resistance will be a crucial factor in determining the digital asset’s next price moves. Recent changes in the distribution of supply suggest that investors are busy reconfiguring their positions at various price points—some heading for the exits, and some buying in. Recent price action suggests that Solana is holding strong support at lower price levels, which is encouraging, given that much of the token’s recent activity has seen it holding parallel trend lines. For traders and investors, the key levels to watch are the $135.70, $144.40, and $165.20 resistance zones. If these levels are surpassed, it could indicate that Solana is moving into a much more pronounced uptrend. On the other hand, if Solana were to reverse back down, the zones would be crucial in determining how long Solana’s price may confine itself before it either elects a new uptrend or downtrend.

Binance’s FDUSD crashed as low as $0.95, causing limited market panic and inviting traders to make use of the loss. FDUSD has been a key source of liquidity for several of Binance’s trading pairs. FDUSD, a stablecoin specifically issued for trading pairs on Binance, is back above $0.99, almost regaining its $1 peg. The token, which has so far remained reliable, had a de-pegging event, sinking as low as $0.87. FDUSD regained its peg after causing market instability in its main pair with BTC. | Source: Coingecko The immediate reason for the de-peg is a statement by TRON’s founder, Justin Sun. He claimed the stablecoin issuer, First Digital Trust, was insolvent and incapable of honoring FDUSD redemptions. This led to market panic and the immediate chaotic dip of the stablecoin. First Digital Trust debunked those claims, but not before seeing FDUSD suffer the effect of the market panic. In a social media statement, First Digital Trust claimed all issued stablecoins are backed by traceable T-bills and other assets. The company also stated it would seek legal action against Sun for the smear campaign. The recent allegations by Justin Sun against First Digital Trust are completely false. This dispute is with TUSD and not with $FDUSD . First Digital is completely solvent. Every dollar backing $FDUSD is completely, secure, safe and accounted for with US backed T-Bills. The… — First Digital (@FirstDigitalHQ) April 2, 2025 The probable reason for Sun’s attack is that FDT was at one point responsible for the backing of TrueUSD (TUSD). The asset turned insolvent, requiring Sun to bail it out with $450M of his own funds. Sun’s involvement with TUSD was documented by a Hong Kong court, which is now investigating the stablecoin’s backing. FDT has been accused of not providing sufficient oversight of TUSD’s reserves. FDT was supposed to be in charge of the stablecoin’s treasury after Techteryx acquired the stablecoin project from its founder, TrueCoin. However, there is currently no direct evidence that FDUSD is facing a similar situation or that its reserves are limited. Binance itself carries FDUSD reserves in excess of user claims, with a 111.07% ratio. FDUSD is mostly tied to Binance’s demand Demand for FDUSD issuance mostly comes from Binance, which is often the sole recipient of new mints and redemptions. The supply of FDUSD peaked in April 2024, just before the spring and summer Bitcoin (BTC) rally. FDUSD was mostly deployed to a leading BTC pair, making up over 34% of the token’s volume. The other big market is the swapping pair FDUSD/USDT, which allows traders to move between stablecoins. FDUSD is mostly available to international clients, as it has been removed as an option for EU-based traders. FDUSD also offers additional perks and programs on Binance for its holders. FDUSD is also used as liquidity for multiple leading coins and tokens, including BNB, SOL, DOGE, and XRP. FDUSD is also one of the eligible assets for participation in launch pools and other limited token sale events. Recently, Binance started phasing out FDUSD from launch pools, offering alternative stablecoins for participation. While the token has received criticism for being too centralized, it has so far worked well for its role on Binance. In the past, BTC and other market rallies have been tied to increased issuance of FDUSD. The token has a circulating supply of just 2.5B, though its daily trading volume is over $7.78B. Despite its limited supply, FDUSD is extremely influential due to its representation on Binance and is a key source of liquidity during market rallies. Wintermute moves in to buy FDUSD The leading market maker, Wintermute, moved in with a new purchase as FDUSD de-pegged. The known Wintermute wallets hold over 38M FDUSD after the latest withdrawal of over 31M tokens from Binance. Based on the market maker’s purchase at around $0.90, Wintermute possibly made up to $3M in earnings after FDUSD recovered. Additionally, the traders on the BTC/FDUSD pair saw the price climb to $99,000 based on stablecoin valuations, opening a brief opportunity to lock in higher gains, but only if FDUSD moved closer to its $1 peg. This makes Wintermute one of the leading holders, with wallets almost competing with some of Binance’s vaults. FDUSD is mostly used on the centralized market but has spread to DeFi protocols. Some of the supply has flowed into Kamino Finance, and some of the stablecoins are flowing into Raydium. The stablecoin is also used on the PancakeSwap DEX, one of the main BSC markets. The stablecoin is held in a little over 39K wallets and has not caused mass panic with more long-lasting trading under $1. Cryptopolitan Academy: Want to grow your money in 2025?

The memecoin market remains a space highly filled with speculative, volatile tokens that emerge seemingly every day and catch the attention of traders and investors at an astonishing pace. Among the performers in the recent Solana ecosystem is Titcoin ($TITCOIN), which in terms of both the holder count and whale accumulation is showing growth that is hard to believe given how short a time it has actually spent existing. Titcoin is in fact a coin that is coming up so fast, in the narrative of Solana tokens, that it has a good chance of becoming one of the go-to memecoins in that ecosystem. Titcoin’s Rapid Holder Growth As per the information from StalkChain, within a mere 17 hours, the number of people holding Titcoin swelled by an amazing 24.69%, going from 13,788 holders to 17,192. This added a substantial 3,404 new holders to Titcoin’s ranks in practically no time at all. At a conservative estimate, Titcoin was adding close to 200 new holders per hour during this stretch. What’s going on here? The rapid rise in the number of holders indicates a growing community that is actively participating in the Titcoin ecosystem. It seems like #Titcoin is one the fastest growing memecoin on sol in terms of holders count 17 hours ago, the holders count was 13,788 Atm, the holders count is 17,192 About 3,404 new holders have been added The holder count grew by 24.69% in the last 17 hours. That's pretty… pic.twitter.com/a5LjOwLYbJ — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 2, 2025 For many investors in the crypto space, the number of holders is an important metric, as it can be an early signal of a coin’s popularity and potential for further growth. The rising holder count suggests that Titcoin has expanded its reach and successfully captured the attention of a broader audience, with new investors in the crypto space optimistic about its prospects. Whale Accumulation: A Bullish Signal for Titcoin Titcoin is not just witnessing a rapid increase in holders; it is also seeing a serious uptick in whale accumulation. This is often interpreted as a very bullish sign in the crypto market. Large investors or “whales” can obviously move a market with their buying. Their accumulation of a particular token can be interpreted as a sign of confidence in its future potential. In the realm of Titcoin, various wallets have quickly amassed significant quantities of the cryptocurrency. For instance, Wallet Fb96 has secured nearly 75 grand of Titcoin. 9XUX is banking on it too, and has beefed up its holdings by around $12,000. E9n6 has gone the DCA route, and set up a strategy to pick up the crypto at various points on the price curve; hence, it already has a $9,000 grip on Titcoin. And Wallet DBV1 unexpectedly threw down around $29,730 worth of the largely unknown crypto. In total, these four wallets have supposedly hoovered up something like $124,730 worth of Titcoin in under two hours. These whales are buying up and holding onto Titcoin. Strong belief in the token’s future performance (a.k.a. its price) seems to be what Whale #1 is going on in all three Tits above. Insights of whale accumulation in $TITCOIN Wallet Fb96 accumulated $74k worth of tokens Wallet 9XUX accumulated $12k Wallet E9n6 opened a DCA and has already accumulated 9k worth of tokens wallet DBV1 accumulated $29.73k These whales have accumulated a total of $124,730 worth… pic.twitter.com/PfNXELBYfB — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 2, 2025 Whale could either expect the token to go up in price or might just be buying it up now because they believe in what seems like a very promising project. In any case, if the whales keep this sort of buying up and holding on of the token (aka ‘HODLing,’ in crypto lingo), then certainly increased price action (i.e., the token going up in price) will be in play. Caution: The Importance of Watching for Profit-Taking Even though whale accumulation is often taken as a sign that a token’s price is about to rise, we must also watch for profit-taking by those whales when they sell. Since whales can and do move a token’s price, if a big holder starts selling off a big chunk of their position, it can lead to a nice, sharp price drop. If the whales who have been accumulating Titcoin since its inception start to sell and take profits, then you could very well see an imminent price drop associated with the same kind of sell-off that would be triggered if the founders sold their shares, with the price supported only for as long as the next set of whales continue to buy. What’s Driving Titcoin’s Growth? Titcoin’s swift growth in the number of holders and in whale accumulation can be traced to some factors. As a memecoin, Titcoin gets some of the broader hype and speculative interest associated with the memecoin market. However, what appears to set Titcoin apart is its performance within Solana, the blockchain on which Titcoin runs, which is noted for its high speed and low transaction costs. The Solana network has emerged as an important player in the crypto space. Its scalability could be adding to the Titcoin’s attractiveness. Enthusiasm and loyalty characterize the memecoin community. If Titcoin has succeeded in building a community of such ardent supporters, that might account for the high rate at which new holders are coming aboard. Community projects of all kinds—meme, DEFI, or otherwise—often experience the kind of viral growth that seems to be the inalienable right of anything with the word token or coin appended to it. And such projects often hedge their bets by hitting up retail traders and investors seeking the next big thing. Future Outlook for Titcoin Suggesting the very rapid growth in holder count and the increasing accumulation of large investors (“whales”) that Titcoin, the current meme coin darling, is well-positioned to appreciate further in price, especially if the recent momentum continues. But, as with any similar cryptocurrency, the future of Titcoin will depend largely on market sentiment, the ongoing engagement of its community, and the actions of major investors. Investors’ main takeaway should be one of cautious optimism. The activity of whales might well indicate a solid and confident base for Titcoin that is genuinely invested in its development and potential. But these same whales could also serve as a dangerous fault line in Titcoin’s price if they ever decide to start taking profits. All in all, Titcoin’s future is, as of now, uncertain and highly dependent upon what type of community investment it can rally to maintain its meme momentum. To sum up, Titcoin has shown fast growth in both the number of its holders and the accumulation of whales, indicating that it is a memecoin with potential. It remains to be seen whether it can keep building on what appears to be some real momentum and sidestep the usual ups and downs of such coins. But for now, it’s certainly a Titcoin worth watching.

The memecoin market continues to draw in capital from both retail and institutional investors, and the latest on-chain metrics indicate it’s a market in which to pay attention. On April 1, 2025, Memecoin Central, aka the Chainlink, saw a trending increase of what seems to be memecoiners reinforcing their conviction to the hilarious, highly volatile, and oh-so-speculative nature of these tokens. According to on-chain analytical data, recorded for the sake of due diligence, the memecoin market, on the whole, was very much pumping on that day, with a net inbound volume of inflows outweighing the volume of outflows by the amount of $2.3 million. April 1st Inflow and Outflow Trends On April 1, the total trading volume in the memecoin space came to $5.1 million. With a net inflow of $2.3 million, this means there was significant movement within the memecoin market. Yet despite this action, the market sentiment appeared skewed towards accumulation and buying, not the profit-taking, sell-side activity that usually coincides with pronounced bullish trends. Intelligent capital—that is often used to mean institutional or, at the very least, well-informed investors—appeared to be making strategic moves, and it was concentrating its efforts (and its cash) on a few specific ones in particular. It was these specific memecoins that were attracting the attention of investors in this intelligent capital category. Key Memecoins Drawing Inflows On April 1st, several tokens attracted significant investments, signaling perhaps a trend of future price action. One of those investments was FARTCOIN, which saw $1.5 million flow into it. Given the nature of the token, one might interpret this seriously speculative bet as some sort of comment on large investors’ mental health. But there is no denying that FARTCOIN is a token that exists, and the investment world is one in which the speculative pricing of assets holds sway. GOAT, another memecoin, received an inflow of $267,000 that was more moderate but still significant. The inflow into this token, which is known for its strong community base, could indicate that smart money investors are positioning themselves in the expectation of price movements that often accompany tokens driven by their communities. GRASS also got a look, with $211,000 flowing into it. And here, too, the upward trend of inflow might suggest that investors are diversifying their portfolios in the memecoin space and trying to grab hold of multiple tokens— integral to this movement— with small but important communities. Even smaller-scale projects such as POPCAT ($136,000) and E/ACC ($65,000) attracted investment, indicating that capital is seeking the next breakout project, the next speculative event, in that way reminiscent of the memecoin market. This overall trend among these tokens seems to signal a mix of larger, well-established projects (like GOAT, a project we couldn’t quite figure out, and the comprehensively humorous FARTCOIN) and smaller, more niche projects (like POPCAT, a project whose very name elicits the kind of laughter economists like to pretend is only found in the playground) that are comfortable bets for future growth. Memecoins Experiencing Outflows Despite some tokens attracting substantial amounts of capital, there were also several that were experiencing outflows. Memecoins like CHEX (-$27,000), SOBA (-$16,000), and STINKDEX (-$30,000) all saw minor outflows. If nothing else, these seem to show that investor confidence in these tokens has waned somewhat, as otherwise there should be sufficient buy-side support to prevent even minor sell-offs. But what might be behind these small sell-offs? Possible answers include reduced market interest, lower engagement from the communities that support these projects, or simple profit-taking by early holders. The outflow from TITCOIN (-$34,000) and TRUMP (-$33,000) may suggest that certain investors are moving away from projects that are possibly losing their initial luster or are facing declining market sentiment. This may reflect the cyclical nature of the memecoin market, where interest can quickly fade, leading to sharp price declines and subsequent outflows. Recap: Smart money on chain activities in the memecoin market for 01/04/25 Yesterday, there was more inflow than outflow Inflow: $3.7M Outflow: $1.4M Volume: $5.1M Net Volume: $2.3M There was inflow into: $POPCAT ($136K) $GRASS ($211K) $GOAT ($267K) #FARTCOIN ($1.5M) #E /ACC… pic.twitter.com/EuTQwaqKQo — Stalkchain (@StalkHQ) April 2, 2025 The Current Landscape of Memecoin Investing The memecoin market is acknowledged for its instability, where tokens may face wild price changes, usually driven by the project’s community or social media hype. On the 1st of April, the net inflow into FARTCOIN, GOAT, and other speculative assets was still very much in the positive, showing that people seem to still want to throw money at things they cannot comprehend. For investors—especially the savvy kind—the endgame is clear: secure a spot in projects poised for serious profits. And in the case of FARTCOIN, GOAT, and GRASS, these ones show some promise of being not just past but also future performers in the memecoin market. They could, in short, be described as potential Chads. And smart investors seem to have unfurled the red carpet for them and these other tokens, seeking them out in spaces populated by not just one but two active communities, and in the process flooding their prices with what in some quarters could be described as borderline illegal levels of hype. Conversely, the outflows from tokens such as TITCOIN and TRUMP reflect the rapid changes in investor sentiment that memecoins often experience. They show how fast capital can depart from these speculative assets, particularly when the market decides to shift its momentum or when other tokens start to command more attention. Looking Ahead: What Does the Data Tell Us? The data from April 1st gives a fascinating look at the memecoin market’s dynamics. This is because there was a very strong net inflow. So it suggests that, at least for the moment, there’s more optimism than pessimism in the market. But it’s also important to remember that this is a very speculative asset class. So any sudden shift in the market or doubts about future growth can quickly turn this optimism into a memecoin market that’s not so merry. For those who are keen on investing in this area, it would be prudent to watch the significant inflows and outflows, because they yield good insights into which tokens have momentum behind them and which ones are, for lack of a better term, going sideways. The memecoin market is very much in flux. Keeping a healthy skepticism about the on-chain data and where the smart money is flowing and just trying to make sense of it all is going to be an imperative for making good decisions in this space. To sum up, the money coming into certain memecoins indicates that some tokens are drawing in the kinds of institutional and speculative investors that, in recent years, have made traditional assets like art and sports collectibles more valuable. It’s a sign, to be sure, that what is in a token’s smart contract or underlying project matters less to many of its buyers than the sheer fun—and potential profits—of it all.
