"1/8 - Radix DLT: A Legacy Beyond One Man The crypto world was hit with heartbreaking news: Dan Hughes the founder and technical visionary behind @radixdlt has unexpectedly passed away. Dan wasnt just a founder he was the soul of the project the one who laid the first bricks of a system he believed could reshape decentralized finance from the ground up. The reaction in the markets was immediate: a steep 5060% drop in the $XRD token amplified by panic and uncertainty. But while the loss of a founder can shake confidence its vital to remember this: Dan built Radix to last beyond himself. This"

"People may not be happy about $Link PA but of many of the charts out there it has not lost any macro structure or support trends. If anything it continues to move in this triangle and landing on progressive volume shelves during retracements before continuing higher. We are close to the next progressive volume shelf area now.which would also coincide with the ascending support trendline and the 200EMA. Combine this with all that fundamentally is going for $Link right now and I have absolute confidence that bounce soon and this next effort will break us out of this trend and well beyond. My"

"Heres a TLDR from GPT on $YB 🔍 What It Is Yield Basis is a new DeFi protocol that uses Curves crvUSD to create leveraged yield strategies for BTC (and later ETH) aiming to give high yield with no impermanent loss. It turns deposits (like wBTC tBTC) into yield-bearing tokens (ybBTC etc.) using a 2x leverage system funded by Curve DAOs $60M crvUSD credit line. ✅ Pros Curve-backed: Funded and supported by Curve DAO sharing ecosystem trust and liquidity. Innovative yield model: Attempts to neutralize impermanent loss while boosting returns. BTC yield focus: Could bring large idle BTC liquidity"

"Market is just teasing and looking to roll over ATM to major support zones.

"For $Link we still may have work to do after looking at the HTF's. So first for the flags we are dealing with. Weekly MACD has bear crossed and the macro channel we are in shows history of visiting the support trend below before continuing up. On the Daily we are not only in a bear cross RSI and MACD.

"@CredibleCrypto has been speaking very strongly on $TRAC and I don't disagree with any of his perspective on this project. My only note is that it has made a major move recently and is now at a macro downtrend resistance line so I would expect some profit taking and a lower entry between $.48 - $.60 which should serve as a great FIB retrace and bounce are for the token. He discusses this as well in his most recent video with very similar interest area with invalidation below $.40.

This token isn't leveraged as much and they continue to use all fees to buy and burn supply. Since July XX they have bought and burned an estimated $250K worth of the token.
