Why are altcoins no longer appealing? Crypto world Ayin uncovers the truth
Everyone, those recently trading altcoins are confused: why could they just buy with their eyes closed before and see prices rise, but now throwing money in feels like throwing it into the water? Simply put, the rise and fall of coin prices depend on how fierce the buyers and sellers are, but the underlying issues are not as simple as 'too many monks and too little porridge'! 1. Altcoins are not living up to expectations Today's altcoins rely entirely on 'patchwork' innovation! In the past, TRX focused on payments, and AAVE handled lending, which were at least genuine innovations. Now it's a mix of inscriptions, AI agents, and even cat and dog memes can generate coins to make money. Moreover, project teams are wholly focused on 'mass production', with Pumpfun releasing more coins than the total of the last two bull markets combined; it's like throwing dumplings into Binance, who can handle that? The worst part is the VC coin unlocking wave, akin to a tsunami, with 5 billion USD in selling pressure every month, equivalent to the total market cap of 100 popular projects in 2019. Teams and investors seize the opportunity to run away, and how can the retail investors withstand that?
The cryptocurrency world is buzzing! The trade war is cooling down, BTC is skyrocketing, what does the future hold? Folks, the cryptocurrency world has been extremely lively lately! The intensity of the trade war has decreased, and BTC has directly broken through 95,000! AI concept coins are also experiencing a surge, with new coins repeatedly hitting new highs. This market feels like it's on a rocket, let's quickly take a look at what the future might hold! A KOL mentioned that if BTC can overcome the current resistance level, reaching 106,000 USD would not be a problem! Why? The US stock market has been booming recently, and Trump has released signals for more relaxed tariffs, while funds in stablecoins are continuously flowing in, which was also mentioned in yesterday's report. From the current overall liquidation liquidity distribution and trend channel, the bulls seem to have the upper hand. However, the macro environment is somewhat unpredictable, making it hard for both bulls and bears to judge. Nonetheless, the market seems to have bottomed out around 74,500 USD. Now, the US Treasury is implementing a bond repurchase plan, and although it is not as direct as quantitative easing (QE), it essentially provides leverage to treasury bond buyers. The government deficit is increasing, and trillions of new debt are about to flood the market, what does this indicate? Money is still continuously being injected into the market, just in a different form. If you have to wait for traditional QE signals to enter the market, by the time Bitcoin reaches 500,000 USD, you might still be sitting on the sidelines! There's also big news: the Arizona House of Representatives has passed two key bills in the strategic BTC reserve legislation. One is SB 1025, which allows the state treasury and retirement systems to invest up to 10% of public funds in Bitcoin and other virtual currencies; the other is SB 1373, which authorizes the state treasury to manage a digital asset fund. However, this matter carries more symbolic significance than practical significance. The passage of this bill will be a notable entry in the history of BTC and cryptocurrencies, potentially increasing BTC's asset weight and recognition in the long run. But in the short term, it may not be realistic to expect it to bring in a large number of purchases or to drive the market particularly hot. What new trends do you think will emerge in the future? Let's discuss in the comments!
These past couple of days, there's been a feeling of wanting to drop, yet unable to do so. As long as BTC breaks below 94,000, it will be quickly pulled back above 95,000. This indicates that too many people missed the boat during this round of increases; even a slight dip triggers a large number of people to buy the dip. This stands in stark contrast to BTC's sideways movement around 80,000 to 85,000 for 1-2 months, which went largely unnoticed. Most people only believe it when they see it, while very few have the courage to believe it first, and then see it. The most intuitive indicator reflecting this sentiment is the Greed and Fear Index, which is at 60 today, indicating greed, compared to 54 yesterday, which was neutral. Additionally, there is the open interest in contracts; according to Coinglass data, the total open positions for Bitcoin futures contracts across the network stand at 669,900 BTC, approximately 63.7 billion USD, nearing the previous high around 100,000. Since a slight increase is already close to the high, if there is a larger market movement in the future, breaking the previous high is almost a certainty.
That's right, Teacher Sanzhong personally tweeted to announce his entry into the crypto field and plans to launch his own personal token, which has attracted the attention of countless fans and veteran figures in the cryptocurrency world. After this news broke, everyone immediately began to speculate—will she, like Trump, offer some "special privileges" to token holders?

Musk running away? This plot was already written by our ancestors 200 years ago!
Recently, both the cryptocurrency and technology circles are watching the dramatic resignation of Musk, and a netizen's brilliant comment has gone viral: 'If Musk runs away, he is Kang Youwei; if he doesn't run, he is Tan Sitong!' #Musk Goodness, when this metaphor came out, those who understand history just burst out laughing — it turns out that the political mess in the beautiful country has long been foreshadowed by our ancestors in historical dramas!
Historical scripts are being sold off: Musk's 'reform in the beautiful country' feels too familiar. To be honest, Musk's operations this time are simply transporting the script of the 1898 Hundred Days' Reform to modern beautiful country.

What's even more outrageous is that important news hasn't been announced yet! A normal person would think either institutions are cashing in on good news in advance and engaging in insider trading, or there's a big waterfall brewing, right?
From nearly going under to a market cap of $1.1 billion! How did Pudgy Penguins PENGU stage a comeback in the crypto space?
On April 28, 2025, the crypto space was abuzz with Pudgy Penguins. Its native token PENGU rose 30% in a single day, accumulating a total increase of 156% over the week, with an overall valuation exceeding $1.1 billion.
During the same period, the Pudgy Penguins NFT series saw weekly transaction volume rise to 2,097 ETH, a staggering increase of 242%, with the lowest transaction price rising from 9.6 ETH to 11.5 ETH, an increase of 20%. This project, which once plummeted to rock bottom, is proving its comeback with tangible growth.
1. The rise is not due to luck; three reasons are quite practical. The recent rise of PENGU is not coincidental; behind it are three key factors:
From the daily perspective of Ethereum, yesterday's price tested the daily MA60 moving average high point at around 1860, while short-term support focuses on the MA10 daily moving average at 1730. In the 4-hour chart, we will continue to maintain the analysis from yesterday's article, paying attention to the gains and losses around the MA256 daily moving average at 1770. If it continues to hold above 1770, the short-term will still maintain a high-level consolidation.
From the daily chart, Bitcoin's price slightly retraced down today and has once again reached the 9.4 level for oscillation and adjustment. On the 4-hour chart, the short-term price is oscillating around the MA5/10/30 day moving averages at the 9.4 level. Pay attention to the gains and losses at this level in the short term. If it stabilizes above 9.4, the short-term upward rebound pattern will continue; otherwise, watch for a retracement to the 9.16 level.
Bitget VOXEL Follow-up: Behind the Farce, Can Industry Rules Be Child's Play?
Everyone, there’s new gossip about Bitget being severely hit by VOXEL that we discussed before!
1. Root of the Crisis: Poor Risk Control and Slow Response Do you remember? On the afternoon of April 20, the price of the VOXEL/USDT perpetual contract fluctuated wildly between 0.125U - 0.148U, with trading volume surging to 12.7 billion USD. Behind this is Bitget's poor liquidity risk management, which is slow to respond to abnormal situations regarding price, trading volume, funding rates, and trading users.
The market-making strategy was not subjected to extreme market pressure testing, and the funding rate mechanism lacked a 'dynamic rate cap', directly attracting users to take advantage.
Bitcoin falls below 93,000, briefly retreats; what is the support point?
Recently, Bitcoin's price trends have been volatile, first breaking through the US$90,000 mark strongly, then experiencing fluctuations and declines. As of April 28, its price has shown a downward trend in the last 24 hours and an upward trend over the past 7 days. Meanwhile, market dynamics are frequently emerging. Whale investors are actively increasing their holdings, injecting vitality into the market; macroeconomic factors have significantly strengthened their influence on Bitcoin prices; the Bitcoin ETF market is seeing substantial inflows of funds, all signs making the direction of the cryptocurrency market increasingly noteworthy. Cryptocurrency prices on April 28 are as follows:
Delisting without a drop? One article reveals ALPACA's 'hunting' script!
Do you all remember that magical drama 'Binance delisting = surge'? ALPACA went from being sentenced to 'death' to surging 650%, playing both shorts and retail investors around (the specifics were already laid out in previous articles!). Now, with the countdown to the contract liquidation on April 30, this 'meme coin' is starting to play out a new storyline — wildly fluctuating prices, the K-line chart looks like a drunken ECG, the ultimate showdown between bulls and bears, who will be the last one laughing?
On the eve of liquidation, bulls and bears are starting a 'psychological war'.
Old tricks, new traps. How should retail investors avoid them?
From the daily chart of Ethereum, the price rebounded to the MA60 daily moving average at the high point of 1870. Pay attention to whether 1870 can be broken through. For short-term support, focus on the MA30 daily moving average at the level of 1690, while the key support level on the 4-hour chart is at the MA256 daily moving average at 1780. If it pulls back and holds above, it indicates effective support testing the pressure at the high point of 1870.
From the daily chart, Bitcoin has seen a rise in the previous period, but the market has stagnated in recent days. The price is currently fluctuating around the high point of 9.4. In the short term, the support level is at the MA120 daily moving average of 9.16, as well as the MA30 four-hour moving average of 9.35. Pay attention to whether it can hold this level upon retracement; if it holds, it will continue to maintain a strong market.
