Bitcoin’s approach to the $90,000 level did not trigger sudden excitement, but it clearly shifted market perception. The fact that the price did not quickly fall below this level reduced short-term uncertainty, creating space for more aggressive altcoin movements. Coins such as MYX, PEPE, and EDGE led the week with massive trading volumes, topping the charts.
Market Flows Into Altcoins While Bitcoin Holds Ground
Bitcoin closed the week up around 2.99%, but the rise alone was not impressive. The real difference came as buyers stepped in during small pullbacks, a typical reaction when the market senses clarity in direction.
Notably, trading interest was not scattered. Volume concentrated on certain tokens, signaling where speculative attention was focused.
Weekly Standouts
-
Definitive (EDGE): +64.9% to $0.1645; $12.8M daily volume
-
ORE: +62% to $153.98, a surprising weekly mover
-
White Whale (WHITEWHALE): +59.1% to $0.06609
-
MYX Finance (MYX): +88.03% to $6.53, a standout performer
-
Chintai (CHEX): +35.7% to $0.04472, rounding out the top gainers
MYX’s Sharp Turn Is Not a Coincidence
MYX Finance coins closed the week up 82.66% at $6.23, with daily volume surpassing $125M. The surge cannot be explained solely by retail interest. After a period of weakness, this rapid recovery reflects a pattern often seen when Bitcoin is strong.
While such sharp gains are rarely fully sustainable, they demand attention.
PEPE Returns but Risks Remain
PEPE coins rose roughly 50% weekly to stabilize at $0.000006123. Daily trading volume reached $1.23B, highlighting the short-term, high-frequency nature of the move. The breakout came after a prolonged consolidation, showing why meme tokens tend to surge during Bitcoin-led rallies.
However, such momentum often produces equally sharp reversals.
Canton (CC) Moves Quietly but Significantly
CC rose 40.29% to $0.1533. Daily volume hovered around $26M, suggesting the movement is part of broader altcoin strength. Although less talked about than MYX or PEPE, such increases indicate a widening market base. True breakouts often begin quietly, before making headlines.
Bitcoin’s Decision Zone Remains Unclear
Bitcoin currently trades between two key liquidity zones. On the upside, $91,000–$92,000 remains a critical area; on the downside, $88,500–$89,000 draws attention. A gap around $88,200 in CME futures still stands as a potential pivot point.
The $90,000 level is holding, but it is not yet confirmed. Altcoin surges reflect that Bitcoin’s next move could quickly reshape the market again.
