Recently, I’ve been analyzing the WAL price chart and discovered some interesting things.

The price has been oscillating around 0.15U repeatedly, but this isn’t just simple technical support. Every time it drops below 0.15U, large orders immediately absorb the sell-off; once it rises to 0.155U, sell orders come crashing down. This rhythm has persisted for several days — clearly not a natural market fluctuation.

Looking at it from another perspective, the main players’ goal is quite clear: support the bottom (prevent retail investors from buying low) and suppress the top (they haven’t accumulated enough chips yet). This is a classic “fence in” strategy. By creating the illusion of price stagnation, they induce holders to cut losses at low prices. The psychological warfare is quite sophisticated.

What’s even more interesting is the on-chain data. Although the price has been relatively stable these days, the number of holding addresses has been steadily increasing. Comparatively, large investors are quietly entering, while retail investors are gradually exiting. The stark contrast between inflows and outflows is very obvious. Doesn’t this indicate that the situation is changing?

From historical experience, such extreme sideways consolidation, once the main players finish absorbing chips, usually leads to a breakout of over 30%. 0.15U is hardly a bottom; at best, it’s a springboard before takeoff.

To avoid losing out in this cycle, the key is to understand what the main players are doing — not to be fooled by the surface-level price stagnation.

ngl the mempool's been way too quiet on this one... whale accumulation without the usual fee spikes? that's the real signal tbh

0.15 has been hammered down again. The pattern is really obvious; retail investors should wake up.

The main force's tactics are indeed old-fashioned, but it’s hard to stop people from still getting duped and selling off. WAL this wave actually has some substance; on-chain data doesn't lie. This is just waiting for the explosion to happen; those without patience would have already run. How could 0.15 possibly be the bottom? Smart people all understand. But on the other hand, what if the main force doesn't show up? Then we’ll just be trapped inside.

Damn, I’m too familiar with this rhythm, it’s just repeatedly testing retail investors’ stop-loss levels. But the on-chain data part is indeed interesting. Large investors quietly accumulating while small traders are running. The price difference just doesn’t look right. If this wave really jumps by 30% or more, then the 0.15U level would have been broken long ago. It’s still being held up now? I’m actually a bit worried.

It's the same old "main force is accumulating" argument again, and it's making me numb. Really think 0.15 is the bottom support? Anyway, I don't believe it. On-chain data increasing means big players are entering? What about retail investors selling off? Why does no one mention that? Sideways movement should lead to a 30% increase? I've heard that countless times... Rather than guessing what the main force is thinking, it's better to see how much you still have in your pocket. No matter how clever the explanation, it can't change the fact that the main force will eventually dump.

Based on on-chain data, this hypothesis is indeed valid, but you overlooked a key governance mechanism issue—large holders entering does not necessarily mean an increase in price; it depends on the Gini coefficient of Token distribution. Price stagnation essentially reflects incentive misalignment; this economic model for token absorption has surely been outlined in the white paper long ago. The analysis of sideways consolidation is accurate, but don’t be brainwashed by the 30% forecast; historical data often overestimates the execution power of major players. This is a classic asymmetric information game; retail investors are always the last to know. 0.15U as support? I looked at the growth curve of wallet addresses; the risk is indeed decreasing, but it still depends on the direction after DAO governance proposals. You’re not wrong, but the question is how do you confirm that entering now isn’t the start of being trapped? According to the Tokenomics design in Chapter 2.3 of the white paper, this sideways pattern indeed aligns with the expected phase of token concentration. Don’t take psychological warfare too seriously; on-chain footprints are more honest than predictions.

The main force's psychological warfare this time is indeed top-notch. Retail investors are watching 0.15 every day, unaware that the chips have already been absorbed. Big players are absorbing, retail investors are running, on-chain data doesn't lie. Volatility is just a shakeout, don't be fooled. This rhythm needs to be a bit fierce. 0.15 is really not the bottom, just a stepping stone. Watching the coin price without moving makes you feel uncomfortable, but the on-chain data is quietly changing, which is very intriguing. The main force is playing psychological warfare. Once they've absorbed enough, the rhythm will become very wild. WAL's current rhythm is a bit something. The sideways movement seems boring, but in fact, it's already changing hands. It feels like a breakout is not far away, just worried about unexpected variables. I've seen a lot of this suppressed sideways trading, often it's the calm before the storm. Chips are changing, the number of holding addresses is increasing, what does that mean? It means the situation is quietly changing.

Oh wow, this chart is so interesting. The main force's method of suppressing the price is truly brilliant. Retail investors are all stuck at 0.15, but little do they know that big players have already snuck in. Wait, is this real? The number of on-chain addresses is still increasing? Then I need to take another look. If this wave really takes off, a 30% increase or more is guaranteed. Now might be the time to enter and eat some gains. The main force's psychological warfare is extremely clever. I almost got tricked into selling my holdings.

Bro, this analysis really has some insights. The 0.15U level is definitely a psychological battle. Retail investors are still debating whether it can break below, while big players have already quietly entered. Is the difference really this big? A 30% breakout? That's pretty aggressive... but after such a long consolidation, it’s definitely time to release some energy. If this wave really takes off, those who entered early will be the ones laughing last. Mindset is the most important; just don’t get shaken out by a liquidation. It seems like the key level of 0.15 might not hold. Recently, there have been some unusual on-chain movements.

I see through this round of main force psychological warfare; just waiting for the moment of explosion.
