CryptoQuant’s CryptoOnchain has spotted a concerning pattern: a ‘bearish MACD crossover’ on the Bitcoin Dominance chart, suggesting Bitcoin’s market share might stop growing. At the same time, trading volume for altcoins is increasing. Specifically, the 30-day average volume of altcoin trades has surpassed the 365-day average on major exchanges. Historically, in 2021, similar increases in altcoin volume often preceded significant price surges for altcoins.

On the Crypto Banter podcast, Zhao, with the confidence of a man who once bet his house on Dogecoin, claimed rivals “didn’t want me pardoned because they’re cowards.” He added, with a wink, “But I don’t have proof. Who needs proof when you have a Twitter following?”

Tether, that enigmatic puppeteer of stablecoins, has once again indulged in its peculiar brand of financial theater, burning $2 billion USDT on the Ethereum network. One might imagine a troupe of crypto clowns juggling tokens while shouting, “Behold! The supply vanishes!”

In a post dripping with the subtlety of a brass band at a tea party, Hoskinson quipped that Philion’s theatrics are a “well-worn marketing playbook” and suggested a TikTok reaction video might be a more modern approach. One suspects he was channeling Oscar Wilde’s disdain for the obvious. Philion, ever the showman, cited DeFi stats like a Victorian poet reciting sonnets-numbers as his muse, Cardano as his foil.
