PULSECHAIN is Gaining marketshare versus SOLANAWHY?
Because #SOL is considered a safe blue chip asset now.
One of the top 3.
Nobody will laugh at you if you tell them you have invested in SOL.
Instead they may congratulate you
assuming you have made a 10X on it
and a 50X on #WIF
Yes alot of smart investors bought Solana at $25 on a technical breakout of beautiful structures --- ones I highlighted at the time.
But more people bought around $125 chasing the momentum or buying the pullback assuming that it will break into new highs next year..
Yet #FTX Alameda will still unload a Billion dollars worth of coins..
and SOL inflation sits around 20% a year.
People hate #Pulsechain
I mean really hate Pulsechain
and people definitely will laugh at you
if you told them that you own it.
Yet QUIETLY it is up over 70% versus SOL in the past few weeks.
This makes PLS a contrarian bet
That could yield high rewards.
I believe this trend can continue ... do you?

Coin98 - Obscure and ready to pumpLooking for an entry point between $.21-$.24 -
My idea behind this purchase stems from its ability to act as a defi facilitator and the fact that Alameda research had so much of this token representing their recent sell-off of assets.
First Targets are
Entry point : $.21 - $.23
Target 3: $.3050
Target 2 (Mid/Long Term) : $.4040
An integral part of the Coin98 ecosystem is C98, the native token. It resides on three blockchains: Ethereum, Binance Smart Chain, and Solana. The token serves many purposes, ranging from letting holders earn a share of transaction fees to staking rewards and unique membership discounts for the various services and products. Additionally, C98 lets users govern the protocol by submitting proposals regarding the Coin98 ecosystem.
How Does Coin98 Work?
Building an open decentralized network for financial purposes is never a straightforward task. The ongoing competition in the blockchain space also fractures the broader ecosystem, making it too complex for users to get acquainted with different solutions and concepts. Unifying all of those options under one banner is a better objective, although it requires innovative technologies. By default, blockchains are incapable of communicating with one another.
The Coin98 ecosystem consists of numerous products, including Coin98 Ventures, Coin98 Labs, and Coin98 Network.
Price points are represented in the chart.
NEAR is retesting support, forming IHSNEAR is back at Entry levels.
After loading up 1.7$ 1.5$ and my biggest bag at 1.25$ levels took some profits on the last pump to 2.7$. Sold a little early tbh due to the Bearmarket Blues still influencing my emotions.
Now reloading my bags for the longterm at these levels again.
As i said in the previous post i like the fundamentals on NEAR. You can check the link post to read on the reasons for that.
It is true, it took a beating but that is mainly due to Alameda being one of their biggest backers in the last bull, and we all know how that went.
As for entry, a nice Inverted H&S is forming and i aimed to buy the Right shoulder to maximize my entry. IHS is on the 4H timeframe so not a very strong indication as of now eventhough i really like the 4H TF.
The same pattern is visible on the daily but its not as obvious.
Regardless of the IHS this area is where NEAR landed first after the initial Bearmarket crash, so it is a strong demand level and it looks like it is retesting it now.
Load em up, the Bull is NEAR!!!
FTT - FUD ON THE ABYSSThe "FTT token" is the native cryptocurrency token of the trading platform FTX.
> Sam Bankman-Fried is one of the founders of the platform and is considered the "young Elon Musk" in community circles.
> For some time, "rumors / speculations" started that the separate company behind FTX = ALAMEDA (investment fund) might be insolvent. (both companies are owned by Sam Bankman-Fried).
> The reason is lack of liquidity of ALAMEDA balance sheet, which consists of Illiquid crypto collateral, + lack of cash reserves.
> After asking for evidence, the answer was indirectly dodged.
Yesterday, the founder of BINANCE had announced on Twitter that he will liquidate his existing FTT tokens.
As a reason for his decision, he cited a lack of trust and looking back at the last "disasters" with "Celsius", "LUNA" + "3Arrow", he does not want to expose himself to any additional risk.
It should be noted that the announcement of the Binance founder from the timing, a supposed death blow - Spartan scale resembles.
> With this he poured oil on the existing fire and the situation could escalate at any time.
> Should there be a "bank run" on the company + the token here if necessary, you can in the following analysis, get a picture of the possible crash.
The probability that this problem will be solved is of course in the room, a possible "loss of face" Sam / FTX / ALAMEDA - can no longer afford.
> Result = wait and see and rather stay out of trading - that will end in liquidation, both directions. .
We are, with the course, at several last SUPPORT levels.
> Should these be significantly broken, it will be a fast descent!
> If the rumors are true, this will additionally mean another sell-off for the crypto markets.

December 30 BTCUSD BingX Chart Analysis and Today's HeadlineBingX’s Bitcoin Chart
Bitcoin is up 0.36% over the last 24 hours and rose to an intraday high of $16,660.00. The largest cryptocurrency continues to trade between $16,500 and its 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) of $16,822, suggesting investors are still not active. If the price turns down and slips below $16,500, the selling could pick up pace and the BTC/USDT pair could fall to the $16,000 to $15,476 support zone.
Today’s Cryptocurrency Headline
Alameda Research Liquidates Ethereum-Based Token
On-chain data cited by crypto research firm Arkham Intelligence suggested $1.7 million worth of tokens from Alameda-linked wallets were sold in the open market over several hours on Wednesday. Multiple tokens including USDC, DAI, CRV, ETH, and CVX were merged from several wallets into two wallets and then sold for USDT. The holdings were then converted into bitcoin (BTC) using swapping services like FixedFloat and ChangeNow. According to Arkham Intelligence data, Alameda still holds over $112 million worth of various cryptocurrencies, down from $140 million held in mid-November.

Here's what it looks like on a line chart of the price.
Is Sam Bankman-Fried a young potential "grandpa" Warren Buffett or a fintech criminal with a life sentence?
Could Alameda replicate the success of Binance, led by future PR wunderkind Sam Bankman-Fried, i.e. a young Warren Buffett? A joke? Ta, no... That's his role after his grandfather died. Or is it? Think about it...
Do you think the pseudo-asset market, the various cryptocurrency scams, can be compared to the tokenized stock market ? Can you smell XRP?)
Right now, in 2022, Binance is a mastodon in terms of cryptocurrency trading. Just like Poloniex in 2017).
Think about who is behind companies like Alameda Research ? Why are they allowed to do what others are not? Why can some liquidate, ostensibly for their own benefit, entire projects with billions of dollars in capitalization and a community of millions of people with impunity, while others can't even breathe a breath?
Who has the right to pardon or punish? Who can claim such a huge piece of the fat pie as the tokenization of stocks or the materialization of money from nothing (stabelcoins) but the state?
Exchanges. Hype and liquidity. Changing market leaders.
Therefore, for conservative traders and investors, it is more rational to pay attention to the non-random mastodons of the crypto market. But, keep in mind that they tend to gain or lose fat over time. I didn't write about Poloniex as an example for nothing. It's an example of hype and decline from previous times of popularity. In 2017 there was such an influx of traffic to the exchange that it was impossible to trade. Five years later, things have changed. Liquidity flowed to the new mastodon of hype, Binance.
Market cycles of cryptocurrency market spikes/declines .
In the price chart, I have shown the time cycles of the cryptocurrency market. This is probably the most important thing everyone wants to know. Most market participants want to scroll through money and increase the amount available "here and now in the moment" - emptying their pockets. Typically, the market of such "burps up" before the next peak in the cycle. Don't be that kind of person.
Very few people draw conclusions from their previous mistakes. They admit their mistakes and look for ways to solve them, rather than cite randomness. There is no randomness in non-accidental actions.
Notice how the "crypto hamster traffic" has decreased in the market nowadays. I may be writing crudely, but it's understandable. Local reversals occur at times like this.

Potential impacts of the unravelling of the FTX crypto empireWhat happened with FTX:
Rumours began circulating starting on the week of 1st November that the balance sheet of Alameda Research, a quantitative trading firm, and a sister company of FTX, a Bahamas-based offshore crypto exchange, might be in trouble. They both have the same owner, a 30-year-old crypto’s “golden boy”, Sam-Bankman Fried. It now appears FTX might have lent out customer funds and assets (no proof of this, though) to Alameda Research which made risky bets with those assets. This is strictly prohibited in traditional finance. Both companies are private, but the market estimates that 40% of the balance sheet of Alameda Research might comprise FTT tokens, utility tokens created by FTX, and these were used as collateral at the firm.
The CEO of Binance, Changpeng Zhao, or CZ, got wind of this in the week of 1st November and said over the weekend Binance will sell all of its FTT tokens (worth over $500 million). This created the cascade of events we are witnessing and a “bank run” on FTX. On Tuesday 8th, Binance and FTX agreed on a letter of intent whereby Binance might potentially purchase FTX Global (leaving FTX US intact), but after starting due diligence, Binance concluded that the finance gap at FTX is “too big” and withdrew the offer.
From the on-chain activity, the industry has recently observed money transfers from wallets at Alameda to FTX. It appears that Alameda lost money on its trades and cannot pay back the funds and assets borrowed from FTX. FTX has been reported to have a shortfall of at least $8 billion.
Current situation:
After Binance's withdrawal of its offer to takeover FTX, the question was who would be big enough to fill the finance gap at FTX? In the traditional finance industry, it would be the government which bails out the troubled company, but there is no government back-stop in crypto. Coinbase has ruled itself out.
After Binance, there were rumours that Tron cryptocurrency network’s Justin Sun was working together with FTX to put together a $9.4 billion “solution”. Several investment funds and companies had access to FTX’s data room and were reviewing its books. Just a short while ago on Friday (11th of Nov) FTX filed for bankruptcy.
The crypto market has been up on Thursday 10th showing some optimism for a solution by the markets.
Reputation of SBF:
Apart from the shadiness of potentially using client funds to make risky bets, there are questions about what the customers and investors of FTX actually knew or were told. Were they given full and honest information about what was going on? FTX was valued at $32 billion just in January and blue-chip VCs had completed due diligence on them. If they misled investors and clients, a court case could come for SBF. It is understood that the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission are investigating whether the FTX properly handled customer funds and its relationship with other parts of Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire, including his trading house Alameda Research. It is also understood that officials from the Justice Department are working with SEC attorneys.
Impact on regulation:
Regulators are likely to come on hard on the crypto industry after this event. Incredibly, SBF spent months in Washington lobbying for crypto regulation which would have benefited his own company while at the same time potentially engaging in risky activities with client funds (no proof of this, though). SBF was the second largest donor to the democratic party (after George Soros) and the democratic party worked with him on major crypto bill proposals pending review at Congress. The crypto bill proposals are likely to be modified and could be postponed for months. This is an embarrassing turn of events for the democrats.
What changes are needed in the industry:
It is clear that transparency and cryptographic proof of reserves are necessary so clients can feel secure that their assets are not lent out or used for risky activities. Kraken has already implemented this and Binance is promising to do the same in the near future.
These events also show how important it is to keep crypto assets in cold wallets and not at centralized exchanges.
Using utility tokens as collateral, particularly utility tokens created by a firm that is also accepting them as collateral, is highly risky as they are vulnerable to short attacks. The other question is: how can you use “monopoly money” you created yourself and claim it could be used as collateral and as a replacement for real money?
There are also concerns about the increasing dominance of Binance, which, before this debacle with FTX, processed around 53% of all crypto trades on spot and derivatives markets by trade count and around 30% of the market’s value.
Contagion fears:
Most cryptocurrency values are down significantly in the past five days. Bitcoin is down 20%, Ethereum 24% and Solana is down 54%. Solana is down more than others as Alameda Research was one of the early initial coin-offering investors in Solana in 2021, and Alameda is said to have held staked and unstaked Solana worth billions of USD.
We expect contagion to continue for days/weeks. Several investors have already written down the investment at FTX to zero. Most obvious companies to track are the lenders to Alameda Research, clients of FTX and other companies with direct or indirect exposures to FTX, Alameda Research or FTT tokens. At this point, we do not have enough information to judge how much, if any, might be recovered from the bankrupt FTX and its sister company Alameda Research.
Future of crypto:
We believe there is still great potential in crypto. Like with most new technologies, early stages of technological development are prone to problems, hiccups and setbacks. Some of the most troublesome business models in the crypto industry have been centralized offshore crypto exchanges (Mt Gox, BitMEX, FTX) and crypto brokers (Voyager Digital). Some fundamental changes are needed to make the industry more transparent and trustworthy with less dependence on a few players. One of the solutions could be the proof of reserves model, which we discussed earlier.
The Truth About APTOS! I've been following apt for about 6 months. I also airdroped. Aptos was designed to replace sol. Don't get me wrong, it's for manipulation, not technology. Apt team will never let you say anything critical in dc. They instantly silence you. The CEO of apt said ftx does not have apt, but ftx is one of apt's early investor. I saw it with my own eyes on apt website and dc channel. Ftx and alameda participated in the investment tour. This information was available on the Aptos website but has been removed. The CEO also confirmed this in the previous interview, and now they are denying it. I know that coins will be received by ftx are locked for now. From the name of Aptos to its early investors, everything is a copy of Solana. They were going to do the pump made by solana last year but the ftx scam has been exposed. Now think twice. Apt is Facebook's crypto version.
FTT FALL AND GOLD RISEFTT has fallen by 90% ...
the entire crypto market is falling.
And gold is growing.
Why and how is this related?
Chronology
November 6 : An analyst under the pseudonym Lookonchain noticed that 23 million FTT coins (about $530 million) were transferred from a "cold" wallet to the Binance exchange. Only one person (with the exception of Alameda itself) had such a large stock, so there could be no doubt about it. It was CZ. Actually, he did not hide much, confirming with a slight delay on Twitter that he decided to sell these shitcoins to FTT .
After that, a series of news came out confirming the presence of big problems at Alameda.
The founder of Alameda started looking for funds because the company started having liquidity problems.
And even Binance did not dare to help Alameda.
On this news, the entire crypto market began to fall rapidly.
People started selling cryptocurrency and tried to withdraw money.
Just at this time, a record was set for transactions with stablecoins.
People wanted to protect their funds, but where to invest their funds now?
Gold
Gold has historically been considered a lifeline for investors.
In times of crisis, gold has always been considered the tool that can save you from losing money.
On November 3 , gold began its growth.
To date, the growth has amounted to 9%.
What does it mean?
The crisis continues, bitcoin has been falling for a year.
November 10, 2021: $BTC 69000$
November 10, 2022: $BTC 15600$
All problematic companies close down and accelerate the decline of the crypto market.
The bottom is not visible yet.
Be careful, especially if you decide to open long positions.
Bye Sam- We will be better off without you 👋 October 31st we had issued the last warning (of many) against FTX and the semi-retarded 'Mr' Sam Bankman-Fried.
The world of crypto is beautiful and it is here to stay.
Yes, Lunas and FTXs will arise and yes they will fall and disappear but Blockchain is here to stay.
So, farewell 'Mr' Sam. We will be better off without you. You opened the door for regulators to storm in, but that's also a good thing looking forward.
OCT 31st message:
☝️Eric Voorhees is the good side of crypto..
SBF and FTX are the BAD side of crypto.
The sooner SBF(Sam) fails the better for all of us.
FTX is bad news 👈🤢
Sam Bankman is the Mark Zuckerberg of crypto 🤮💩 🤮
If you have no time to watch all of it this is the 1 min you should watch
PS. I don't think Binance will be willing to bail them out, There might be more pain incoming but also opportunity arises. time to choose the GOOD projects that will STAY and invest in those.

¡A Big Liquidity Gap!Introduce
Hello trading community! As can be expected, the crypto market will suffer after the Binance sell-off. Not only that, but data on Alameda's balance sheet was also leaked, leading to a possible bankruptcy of the company.
Fundamentals
It is normal for a black swan with these characteristics to have an impact on all cryptocurrencies, including BTC, and the same way it happened with LUNA, with liquidations of positions and massive price drops. Additionally, the price of BTC found no buyers above 21080K, causing the price to break through this support and retreat to the 20K area. Today we have the US midterm elections and Thursday's expected CPI data. as two events that may bring volatility to the market. DXY is showing no bullish signs, and if it breaks below 110, it could fall to the support area between 108 and 109.
FTT/USDT technical analysis
On the daily chart, we can see a breakout of a descending triangle with a target between $10 and $12. There is no liquidity or related buying in this area. Also, the MACD has yet to complete its bearish development and the RSI 14 is at the 23 level.
Good deal and profit! !
$SOL TO $20 OR $40 NEXT?We have witnessed a huge dump in the price of $SOL after Alameda sold off their $SOL. This has certainly shaken the market. In my previous analysis (link is attached to this analysis) I explained my confluences as to why I am bullish on $SOL in this last Quarter of 2022. My bias remains unchanged since the dump was due to a firm selling off their $SOL to rescue their investment in $FTT .
If you look at current $SOL analysis you will see that price has raided the major Sell-Side Liquidity. I can see no further reason for price to drop further from a Price Action point of view. In my opinion, this is the best time to accumulate $SOL on Spot market and low leverage trades. Use proper Risk Management.
N.B: This is for Educational purposes and Not Financial Advice.
With this said, Happy Trading Pals

FTT the SOL adopted son.Looking to collect a decent amount of FTT on the box for a long term, also Im looking to speculate every white line, also every intersection of white lines and trend lines (black lines) will really indicate where the market is gonna move.
a great chance to be hopefully?
also when it drops, forget the bears talking about bear market, there is always a bounce and there is always profit taking, meanwhile if the bleeding was slow below the rectangle i would decrease my position and layer some bids from lower white lines
salute mon amies.

$SRMPerfect retest of weekly support.
I believe this will break ATH, especially with SOL breaking ATH every day now.
Got quite a bad entry, but still worth it imo.
Aiming for 10.15 first.
Flip 10.69 and we see an easy break of ATH towards 19.50 (1.618 fib).
Active Price Suppression in Action1 Minute View
Alameda Research was trusted with 2.7 Billion REEF on March 8th, paying a 20% discount on what was already a fair price, on the grounds that the upcoming project would garner the support of FTX and the Alameda team. On that day, the monthly volume weighted average price was about $0.037035/REEF which means that they had an average position of approximately $0.029630/REEF. On March 15th, most if not all of their coins were dumped onto the market in what is most likely an attempt to bring the price below their original entry in order to not only profit, but to retake their original position or a more advantageous one.
In general, the volume weighted average price acts as a resistance line that flips the acceleration of the price movement into reverse. Institutional trading groups such as Citadel, Alameda, and pretty much any successful hedge fund will use this indicator with higher regard than others. In order to influence the confidence rating of a price movement, there must be significant volume behind the movement on the most active platform trading it and with 2.7 billion units of fuel they had no problem robbing the general population of traders with most, if not all of their holdings. The monthly VWAP was on the verge of rising to continue REEF's bull cycle and Alameda knew it. In order to prevent this, they suppressed the VWAP bounce; locking it into a short, downward cycle by manipulating the moving averages.
A strategic investor knows how to facilitate the growth of a coin's market cap and how to take profit at the same time with responsible dumping techniques. This was no nurturing investment and it is plain to see that it was all just a quick OTC cash grab by Alameda. Startups have also forced the facilitation of growth by enforcing a token unlock schedule to avoid complete and immediate rugs. While the REEF team's inexperience and naivete are definitely contributing factors to this mess, Alameda's malicious opportunism is ultimately why this happened. I don't think that the REEF team will be so careless as to let this happen to them again, but the scars on the charts are going to stay visible until they heal over time.
To any upcoming team of cryptocurrency engineers and innovators, I have to warn you. The only thing I learned about the whole $REEF fiasco is that doing business with #AlamedaResearch is a liability to your coin. Give them no special consideration and make them buy from #uniswap liquidity pools like everyone else. #boycottFTX
Disclaimer: I have a relatively small, long position in REEF that is 20% above Alameda Research's position. I was not aware of Alameda's interest at the time of purchase.
