🔥 $ICP ROSE BY 20%: Mission70 and deflationary pressure 🚀
After the announcement of Mission70 — a 70% reduction in token issuance in 2026 — ICP gained +20%. Trading volume increased threefold to $402 million, and an RSI of 80 indicates strong momentum (but also overbought conditions).
Upcoming ICP World Computer Day (January 26) with collaborations from NVIDIA and AMD — another driver of interest. The deflationary effect (burning 27% of tokens through computational cycles) supports AI and DeFi development plans, while the continuous outflow of tokens from exchanges signals accumulation.
Short-term liquidity is concentrated on $PEPE , making it the main focus for traders in this cycle. Capital flows and activity are growing, and it becomes one of the key "beta dimensions" for the market.
📈 $MYX BUILDING UP SILENTLY: before the next impulse
On 4H $MYX holds higher lows, trend intact, volatility compressed. The impulse has cooled down, but the structure remains unbroken — a classic accumulation phase before a potential move.
🛡️ $ZEC GOING OUT OF THE SHADOW: privacy back in the spotlight 🚀
While attention is scattered across hype, Zcash is quietly but confidently breaking the bearish scenario. Holding above $442 and a +13% gain in a day is not a random spike, but the first signal of a trend structure change after a prolonged accumulation period.
On the 4H chart, the price breaks above the upper Bollinger Band, showing strong momentum, while on the 1H it holds near highs — a sign of aggressive demand. MACD has entered the positive phase, the histogram is expanding, and volumes above 180 million USDT confirm: the move is backed by money.
RSI is already in the overbought zone, so a short flat or pullback would be healthy and even desirable. The $415–430 zone appears to be a key support for continued growth. If momentum holds, the next target is $470–480, and a daily high breakout would open the path significantly higher.
$ZEC appears like a 'sleeping giant' awakening against the backdrop of growing interest in the privacy sector. The trend is shifting, but smart entry is only after confirmation, not at the peak of emotion.
🔥 $ICP WENT INTO RECOVERY — AND THIS IS NO COINCIDENCE 🚀
Internet Computer is showing strength while the market is still hesitating. A breakout above $4.25 and a gain of over +20% in a day confirms the exit from a prolonged accumulation phase. On the 4H chart, the price is holding near the upper Bollinger Band, while on the 1H chart we see a calm pause under the hawks — a classic preparation for the continuation of the move.
RSI is overbought, so FOMO is already in the air, but volume and MACD speak clearly: money is coming in consciously, not blindly. This is an impulse with confirmation, not a random pump.
The key zone right now is $4.10–4.15. Holding above it opens the path to $4.80–5.00. A healthy pullback to $3.80–3.90 will merely be a reloading before the next impulse.
The conclusion is simple: the trend is bullish, but a smart entry is after confirmation of support. $ICP once again reminds us why it is considered one of the strongest tech alts in the market.
2025 became the year of spot ETFs. 2026 could fully become the year of Chainlink.
NYSE Arca officially approved the listing of the Bitwise Spot Chainlink ETF. Trading will start this Thursday — on one of the largest exchanges in the world.
This is the second spot ETF on $LINK after Grayscale and a clear signal — institutional capital is entering Chainlink systematically.
🧠 Today Chainlink is the foundational infrastructure of Web3: 🔹 data backbone for decentralized systems 🔹 foundation for prediction markets 🔹 key data provider for RWA (Real World Assets)
Bitwise openly refers to Chainlink as "data backbone of Web3". Partnerships like GMTrade emphasize the focus on institutional-grade data with maximum trust — a critical element for tokenizing real-world assets.
📈 ETF is not just hype. It is: • regulated access for institutions • long-term capital • increasing demand for the underlying asset
🚀 The Bitwise ETF could become the same trigger that: • reclaims institutional attention • stimulates demand • helps LINK break out of its multi-month accumulation
🔮 Chainlink has every chance to become one of the top performers of 2026, if the market allows the momentum to build.
🌍 Ripple aims to replace SWIFT and transform global payments
Ripple has confirmed its ambitious strategy through the Interledger Protocol (ILP), which connects payment providers and wallets worldwide. $XRP serves as a key component as on-demand liquidity, enabling fast fund transfers without requiring large reserves in various currencies.
📌 Key advantages: • Faster and cheaper international payments • Reduced costs and complexity for businesses and individuals • Potential to scale the global financial system
Chris Larsen refers to this transformation as a "Cambrian explosion" in finance, opening new possibilities for innovation and efficiency. Ripple and XRP are laying the groundwork for a new era of international payments.
📈 $HYPE responds to strong support — buyers have actively intervened, and the structure remains bullish. As long as the price holds above this support, an upward continuation is likely.
📈 $DASH +60% per day — growth driven by $4.9M short squeezes, capital inflow into privacy coins, and a surge in trading volume to $1.09B (+436%). The price confidently broke through the 50- and 200-day moving averages, forming a bullish structure, although a short-term cooling-off period is possible after such an impulse. Integration with Alchemy Pay strengthens the fundamentals, expanding fiat payments and utility-driven demand for $DASH .
📈 +47% in 24h | +100% in a week | MC $261M Meme token $币安人生 (LIFE) on BNB Chain surged sharply after listing on Binance. Volume reached $173M (+113%), with strong hype on social media around the 'top Chinese meme token' and active whale purchases 🐳
🧠 The rise is driven by hype and Binance liquidity, not fundamentals. ⚠️ High risk of sharp pullbacks.
🔥 U.S. Senate Prepares a Crypto Revolution: Altcoins Could Become Commodities, Not Securities
The U.S. Senate has released a draft of a new crypto bill that could fundamentally change the rules of the game for the entire market. Key idea — reclassify major altcoins from "securities" to "commodities," as already done for Bitcoin and Ethereum.
The bill includes 🟢 XRP 🟢 Solana 🟢 Litecoin 🟢 Hedera 🟢 Dogecoin 🟢 Chainlink If ETFs are launched for these assets, they gain legal clarity.
🚀 This is a massive signal
🔓 Regulatory risk disappears 💰 Institutional funds can now enter 📈 ETF + CFTC provide liquidity 🧲 DeFi and developers return 🏦 Banks and major investors no longer fear
Especially explosive for $XRP , which has been in a long battle with the SEC.
If the law passes, the U.S. will become the world's crypto capital, and altcoins will finally get what they've lacked for over 10 years — legal legitimacy. This could trigger the largest altseason in history.
$PEPE failed to hold its breakout and is now consolidating at the upper part of the range with a weakening impulse. Such a structure often ends with a rejection from the offer zone and a move into the liquidity zone below.
This looks like a classic bull trap — liquidity above the highs has already been gathered, but demand does not confirm the continuation of the rise.
After months of pressure, panic, and liquidations, the crypto market is finally entering a phase of reset — and this is precisely the moment when the biggest trends are born.
$XRP — quiet accumulation before the explosion XRP has completed its full corrective structure. The price has stabilized in a historical demand zone, RSI is in a neutral-to-bullish range, and sellers are losing control. This is not a 'meme pump' — it's a structural setup for a trend. If the price holds above key zones, the market could see an impulse that most will miss buying.
$BTC — compression before the bounce BTC is no longer falling — it's building a base. Higher lows, fading sell volume, and a stable RSI indicate one thing: the market is transitioning from a panic phase into an accumulation phase. This is how major rallies begin.
🐶 $DOGE — weak link in the market Loss of 50 EMA = loss of trend. Buyers aren't defending levels, volume is low — the structure is breaking down. Capital is exiting and seeking better opportunities.
💡 Money doesn't leave the market — it gets redistributed. Weak alts are giving up liquidity to strong setups. This is how a new wave begins.
🎮 $PLAY years on +57% on the wave of AI gaming and new partnerships
$PLAY — AI-based gaming infrastructure token—rose by +57% in a day, and trading volume surged by +1179%, indicating a sharp inflow of capital into the asset.
The rally was catalyzed by partnerships with Conflux (cross-chain games) and ZENi (mini-games), which strengthened the narrative of scaling and mass user acquisition.
Revived interest in AI gaming is attracting speculative capital, however overheated indicators suggest: maintaining the current momentum will be difficult without a pause or market consolidation.
🔐 $DASH surged by +63% amid short squeeze and privacy focus
$DASH showed a sharp rise of +63%, driven by a combination of negative funding rates (short squeeze) and capital rotation into privacy-focused coins.
📊 Key metrics: • Trading volume increased by +435% to $407M • Open interest in futures reached $105.5M
🧠 Accumulation by major players continues — the top 100 wallets control ~37% of supply, indicating high confidence and potential institutional interest in privacy assets.
🔍 What to watch next: • Normalization of funding rates — will demand be sustained without a short squeeze • Retention of support at $61 — a critical level for maintaining the bullish structure
$XRP approaches strong upward trend support line for the fourth time — a zone historically stable in attracting buyers. Currently, liquidity has accumulated on both sides of the market, making this level especially important from a technical perspective.
If price removes liquidity near support and maintains acceptance above the trend, it will significantly increase the probability of continuation of the bullish impulse. In such a scenario, the next key liquidity and resistance zone is located near 2.1100.
🧠 Confirmation — the main thing. Let the market show its intentions before taking on risk.
$PEPE is currently in a key historical demand zone. This area has repeatedly served as a strong base, and now the price is holding steady instead of continuing to decline — an important structural signal.
After the impulse rise of PEPE, a deep correction has occurred, and it is now consolidating in the range of 0.0000050 – 0.0000060. In this zone, the selling pressure is noticeably weakening: bearish impulses are losing strength, and the price is transitioning into a sideways movement — a typical accumulation pattern.
If the overall market stabilizes, $PEPE has the potential to launch a new trend impulse from this base.
$DOLO set up a real God Candle — price rose from $0.040 → $0.070 (+57%) within hours, now trading near $0.0655 after the first pullback. Volume confirms: large money entered the market, but along with it came mass FOMO.
📊 Technical picture: • RSI = 90–94 → extreme overbought condition • Bollinger Bands: price far above the upper band → historically this signals a return to MA20 ($0.045–$0.051) • MACD: strong bullish impulse, but the angle of rise is already "parabolic" — risk of sharp correction
🧠 This is not an organic trend, but a FOMO pump. Smart money entered lower — now they will start selling liquidity provided by late buyers.
🎯 Key scenarios: Bullish: Consolidation above $0.065 → retest of $0.070 → potentially $0.085, if new volume arrives.
Base case: Pullback to the $0.055 – $0.051 range for RSI cooldown and order book rebalancing. This is where a logical re-entry would occur.
⚠️ Asset is overheated. Entering now is playing against mathematical probability. If you're already in a position — partial take profit is mandatory. If not — wait for the pullback.
🔥 Story Protocol ($IP ) is exploding — Asia has triggered FOMO
$IP grew by +28%, and trading volumes soared to $265.4M (+468%) Almost half of the liquidity (45%) comes from Upbit, meaning retail investors from Asia are driving the momentum.
📈 Indicators are screaming "overbought" — MFI > 90, but the market is ignoring this due to two strong narratives: • Grayscale is launching an investment trust • Social media mentions up by +200% → attention is turning into liquidity
🧠 The current setup is: speculative overheating + strong institutional trigger + hype-driven IP narrative.
⚠️ Volatility is inevitable, but capital inflows are still flowing into the asset.
$RIVER made +20% after investment in Maelstrom fund by Arthur Hayes — a signal that multi-chain liquidity is no longer theory and is starting to work.
📊 On Binance derivatives, RIVER has already processed $3.5 billion, and Open Interest up +19.62% — the market is not speculating but building positions.
🔒 Meanwhile, a significant portion of tokens are in delayed unlock schedules, reducing selling pressure and strengthening the momentum.
⚡ The formula is simple: institutional money + growing liquidity + limited supply = explosive setup.
