Can stablecoins also have a directional bias? Bottom line: yes, but only for mean reversion within an extremely narrow range, and $U currently has a clear edge in relative sideways strength.
Sector comparison: $SOL is trading at 103.48, with MA5 below MA20, RSI at 44.7, bearish MACD, a funding rate of -0.0022%, and a range of about 3.89% over 30 candles; $APT is trading at 0.7936, down 5.56% over 24h, with RSI at just 37.2, bearish MACD, and a range of about 10.99%. Both are below their moving averages, with weak momentum. By contrast, $U is trading at 1.0007, with MA5=1.00064 above MA20=1.

In a recent interview, Justin Sun explicitly said he was “more bearish on BTC,” citing AI and quantum computing. He thinks AI algorithms could pose a serious threat to elliptic curve cryptography within 1 to 1.5 years, turning the 2 million BTC whose private keys have been lost into potential selling pressure. Interestingly, though he says he’s bearish, he hasn’t reduced his core holdings at all; he has only moved them into a new, never-before-used cold wallet for isolation. This shows he’s warning about tail risks in an extreme scenario, not telling you to liquidate now.

The most unusual detail in today’s market: $ZEC fell just 0.99% in 24 hours, yet its range reached 7.56%. The price repeatedly tested the lower Bollinger Band at 1111.11, while the funding rate remained positive at 0.0058%—longs are paying to hold positions, and shorts are not crowded. This combination of “small decline + high volatility + positive funding rate” suggests that positions are changing hands rather than being flushed out, and volatility is being underestimated.
Technical outlook: MA5=1127.15 is below MA20=1151.07, the MACD histogram at -1.335 remains bearish, and RSI=43.6 is in t

to bet on AVA, and it has doubled now
You ask me why my bets are so accurate
It’s all insider information🤓
Some people pick coins by looking at altcoin holdings/market cap
and trading volume
Actually, this is not much different from guessing high or low
These are all metrics that market makers can easily inflate, at a very low cost

Sunday morning—time for a cup of coffee to wake you up!
SpaceX’s first full quarterly earnings report is about to be released. What the market really cares about isn’t how fast revenue is growing, but when its AI investments will start translating into profits.
Second-quarter revenue rose 92% year over year to $7.81 billion, but the company still posted a net loss of $541 million. The market expects third-quarter revenue of around $12.86 billion, with Starlink growth, AI revenue, and massive capital expenditures set to be key areas of focus.
My take: beating revenue expectations is just the fi
