Meme coins are getting crushed again today.
SHIB is down 9%, WIF is down 6.5%—the screen is all green.

But two coins are holding their ground.
$PENGU is still up 2.55% for the week, with $221M in trading volume—the highest among meme coins.
$BONK is down just 1.6% for the week. It feels like it just won’t budge.

Even crazier is the split in the news.
Steve Aoki just dumped all his SHIB and PEPE, while T. Rowe Price is looking to launch an ETF that includes DOGE and SHIB.

Celebrities are bailing, institutions are stepping in. I’m just a small-time investor, and I’m confused.

But then again, Aoki lost 88% on Bored Apes too. He doesn’t seem to have much luck with anything he invests in.
Institutions are looking at popularity and regulatory compliance—and meme coins clearly have a solid grassroots following.

Coins in the $PENGU $BONK $DOGE league aren’t going to zero as long as Binance is around.

The dip could actually be worth a look. Don’t go all in—buy in batches. If you can’t handle the stress, stay away.

The third leg of the rotation: now it’s the old coins’ turn to come back from the dead.

The old-school chain tokens that pumped yesterday have all given it back today.
W -32.7%, STRK -18.8%, CKB -13.5%.
Anyone who chased the rally is now stranded at the top.

Today’s leaderboard features a different batch of familiar old names.
$OSMO +40.9%, the DEX on Cosmos, with $9 million in trading volume.
$GTC +37.8%, Game.com—a name I haven’t heard in ages.
$RSR +23.7%, the stablecoin protocol Reserve Rights, with $38 million in volume.

It’s not that the fundamentals have changed; the money is rotating.
The same money was digging up old chain tokens yesterday, and today it’s digging up DEX and gaming coins.

BTC at 83.4k, moving sideways with no clear direction.
Don’t chase green candles in this kind of market.
Look at yesterday’s leaders—aren’t they all on today’s losers list?
If you’re going to trade, get in on day one of the move. Buying on day two just makes you someone else’s exit liquidity.

【Exposé】Side→Bitway (BTW): Rebrand and token change, airdrop migration left unfinished; Binance connections paved the way, while longtime holders still haven't received their tokens

@cz_binance @heyibinance, bosses, this isn't an attempt to pick a fight. I'm asking you to weigh in based on public information.

In November 2024, this project was still called Side Protocol. It launched the SIDE Genesis Drop airdrop, with registration open from 11/26 to 12/15. The promise was to distribute 100 million tokens to active BTC users, Cosmos stakers, and testnet participants. A bunch of people I know registered.

Let's go through the project's history, one issue at a time:

1. In December 2024, Side first raised funds through an LBP pool on Solana, then turned around and announced: “Issuance canceled, refunds issued, no token launch on Solana.” The Genesis Drop was changed to fully unlocked. What happened to the promised refunds for early buyers? The community still hasn't been given an answer.

2. In August 2025, it suddenly rebranded as Bitway and announced funding from YZi Labs (formerly Binance Labs). CEO Shane Qiu is a former core member of YZi/Binance Labs—that's the reason it was able to make a high-profile appearance in Binance Wallet Booster and ride Binance's traffic. Anyone with eyes can see that connections in Binance circles paved the way.

3. The biggest trap: SIDE had a total supply of 1 billion. After the rebrand, the total supply of BTW ballooned to 10 billion—a 10x increase. How many BTW can old SIDE holders actually exchange for? The project has never given a written commitment, only vaguely saying that “holders' shares won't be diluted.” Whales insist it's a 10x conversion, but has anyone seen that in writing?

4. The migration was left unfinished. The old side.one website and Genesis claim page have long been inaccessible. For people who registered at the end of 2024, the conversion details are still unclear even after the rebrand. Boxmining issued a direct warning: don't connect to fake “SIDE claim” pages or pay unlocking fees—which shows that phishing scams are already exploiting this unfinished mess to rip people off.

5. The valuation narrative is all over the place. Publicly reported funding totals only about $6 million, yet FDV estimates vary from tens of millions to over $4 billion, depending on the source. The seed-round price was about $0.0027; at the peak, that would mean paper gains of 150x or more. The top 10 addresses control 96% of the tokens, and the top 25 control 99%. On-chain liquidity has been rated “high risk,” and to date there has been no CertiK audit or bug bounty program.

A project that made a high-profile distribution through the Binance ecosystem has left its old airdrop users' tokens stuck in a “Schrödinger's migration.” Could listing and Alpha due diligence include checks on whether historical airdrops were delivered and whether the rights of longtime holders are guaranteed in writing? That's more relevant to retail investor trust than however many memecoins get listed.

The second leg of rotation has hit the old-chain graveyard.

Yesterday I said money was moving into more legit coins. Today it’s moving even faster.
They’ve gone and dug up the old-chain graveyard.

$CKB +28% — Nervos, an old coin from 2018.
Everyone thought it was completely dead, but trading volume exploded 17x overnight.
$W +28% — a cross-chain bridge. You can count how long it’s been lying dormant.
S +26%, with $40 million in volume.

$NEAR +11.5%, volume at $188 million—the highest of the bunch.
That quantum-resistance upgrade is still gaining traction, and Arthur Hayes keeps shilling it every day.

STRK is even stronger: +38% yesterday, then another +20% today. Two straight green days.
But TIA, which rose alongside it yesterday, fell behind today at -4%.
The divergence is starting to show even within the same sector. Think about what that signals.

Memes are still playing dead. DOGE is drifting around at +1%, like it hasn’t woken up yet.

BTC is hovering around $84,000. Fear and Greed is at 61.
U.S. markets are closed today, liquidity is thin, and volatility could be amplified.
CPI comes out Wednesday. Everyone’s holding their breath until then.

Don’t chase these old coins just because they’ve come back from the dead.
With rotation, once it reaches the third sector, the party’s nearly over.
If you really want to trade it, wait for the divergence to play out and go with the one that survives.

Called it again. For the third time.

MAGIC was yesterday’s top double-digit gainer, up 108% across the board. Today it’s down 21.5%.
OGN is even worse: up 104% the day before yesterday, then down for two straight days—and now down another 15% today.
I’ve been saying for three days that the pullback on countertrend doubles would hit harder than the rally. And I’ve been right all three days.

If you chased those doubles, guys, maybe you’ve learned to keep quiet this time.

So where did the money go today? Straight into the more established coins.
$STRK is up 38%, with $79 million in volume—the biggest gainer across the board, and up for a second straight day.
$TIA is up 24%, $AERO is up 16%, and INJ is up 11% too.
Some of the old infrastructure names, like Celestia and Aerodrome, suddenly came back to life as a group.

Meanwhile, the meme coins are all lying there like corpses.
DOGE, BONK, and SHIB are all slowly bleeding 1–2%, while WIF is down 2%.
No narrative, no moonshots—everyone’s playing dead.

BTC is ranging around $83K. Greed is at 61.

The double-your-money curse is still here. Memes aren’t dead; they’re just taking a break.
At these levels, don’t chase doubles and don’t touch coins that are slowly bleeding.
Watching from the sidelines costs the least. I’ll call it when some forgotten old coin suddenly sees a volume spike.

The saying from yesterday came true today.

Just yesterday I said that in a countertrend doubling move, the drawdown is even fiercer than the rise.

$OGN was yesterday’s +104% all-market doubling king, and today it’s -12.6%.
RLC was even harsher, +37% yesterday and -17.5% today.
Those who chased the pump should be reflecting on life right now.

But today’s gainers list also produced a tough one.

$MAGIC , the old Treasure gaming-chain coin, doubled overnight, +108%, now at $0.16, with $50 million in volume.
An old coin that had been dormant for two years, the kind nobody paid attention to, suddenly exploded.

What’s absurd is that within the same gaming-coin sector, the divergence looked like two different worlds.
MAGIC doubled, $ALICE only crawled up +2 points, and SUPER went straight down -7%.
Same sector, some are eating meat while others are just standing guard.

On-chain, CHEEMS is still pumping against the trend, with a BSC whale locking it up for two years straight.
People like that are either true believers or following some other script; we small retail traders should just watch the show.

BTC is sideways at 82.7k, greed at 64.

The real doubling gains are always hiding in old coins no one is watching.
But before you make a move, first ask yourself clearly: can you hold through the day it drops -12%?

In the morning I opened an account and saw BTC touch 86k.
The greed index is 70. The market is really hot.

But the most outrageous thing today isn’t the broader market.
It’s that bunch of old dogs buried for two years—collectively rising from the dead.

$FLOKI pulled +8.4% in a single day, taking the #1 spot on the meme sector gainers list.
$DOGE was even harsher—not just +4%, but with a 24h trading volume of more than 57 million USD, the largest among all memes.
PENGU +6.4%, SHIB +4.5%, $MEME +4.5%—all rallied together.
Two days ago the money was still playing games; today it all went back to pick up dogs.

I know this logic: ETF flows keep coming in every day, the market holds steady,
and hot money loves to circle back to buy belief. With good liquidity, even trapped holders are willing to let go.

Let me say the ugly part up front: don’t get carried away in a 70-greed market.
Sure, they’re “rising from the dead,” but that doesn’t mean a reversal.
If you want to board, wait for a pullback—don’t sprint into the dogs when they’re up +8%. If it breaks down, get out. DYOR.

Brother who chased BERA and came back from the dead yesterday—accept my condolences.
I chased it too; the unrealized loss is serving as payment.

Today, the meme coin crowd is collectively lying flat.
BERA -5%, PENGU -2%, BONK -1.6%, PEPE +3%—these are still among the hardest in the sector.
When profit-taking comes, the sell pressure hits decisively.

But then. Open Binance’s gainers list—wow, the front seats are all gaming tokens.
ALICE +29%, SUPER +14%, PORTAL +6.8%, TLM +6.7%—a whole unit goes into riot mode.
Since memes aren’t being chased anymore, capital turns to games.

I’ve been watching ALICE for a while.
It set a fresh historic low of 0.093 back in June; compared with the 40U all-time high in 2021, it’s down 99.7%—textbook dead-money territory.
Now it’s at 0.217, with 24h volume of $18 million; the market cap is only $11 million, so volume is 1.6x market cap.
The key point: fully circulating supply—no hidden unlock dump risk.
By the end of September, Beta Season 2 launches; the first batch of the airdrop party runs until 10/6, which lines up perfectly with this volume surge window.

But let’s say the ugly part upfront: an event-driven move isn’t a reversal.
For small-cap game tokens, the usual pattern is: once it’s pumped, it goes back.
If you want to get in, wait for a pullback—don’t rush in at +29%.
If it breaks support, run—don’t get attached.
DYOR.

I just finished talking about the meme coins collectively giving up yesterday, and before the words even left my mouth, they’ve all come back from the dead today.

Binance spot live test: $BERA +21% leading the whole market, BONK +11%, PENGU +10%, and PUMP even +25%—even more intense than yesterday. Even the “bear-chain” bears can take off, which means the sentiment is really back. The sector was down 4% yesterday, but today it’s green across the board.

The little guys who cut their remaining positions on the floor yesterday because they couldn’t resist now have regrets filling their guts.

But one reminder: BERA’s own greed index has already hit 63. In these “zombie” rebound markets, the strongest movers are often in the back half of the rebound. Don’t chase. Wait for a pullback, reassess—if it breaks down, back off. DYOR.

The meme sector collectively took a breather today, with the overall size shrinking by nearly 4%. All the old dogs are sprawled out on the ground. Funds aren’t playing a broad-based rally; they only recognize lone wolves with hard logic.

$MARSCOIN pushed up another 20+ points today. Binance Spot Seed Tag—this is the first meme spot listing in a year. On the Flap platform, there are also SpaceX product rewards. This logic isn’t just painting a picture; it’s Binance itself that got the listing done.

$TRUMP ’s political meme was up about 5% today. The older, established players are steady. It’s message-driven—and the election season isn’t over yet.

$PENGU ’s Korea blockchain segment surged 38% this week and is taking a break today. The story of NFT-brand memes isn’t finished—IP is valuable.

The overall market isn’t in a broad meme season. Chasing hourly new highs can get you buried. Only trade “fox-like” coins with a foundation, keep position sizes small, and if it breaks down, run. DYOR.

The big pie fell back to 83k, and today memes all collectively face-planted—green days are rarer than red pandas.

But the crypto goblin hunters only care about hard bones. $PUMP says there are a few green candles in the meme space today; Binance spot is up +8.78%, with volume of 78 million dollars. Pump.fun is basically a launcher itself—their platform token is a bit more stable than the on-chain dog tokens.

$QNT is even stronger, up +19%, with volume of 260 million dollars. Quant is the kind of “old institution” crypto goblin that comes back from the dead. The story being spread is RWA/asset-on-chain narratives—when institutions move, the pull is even more vicious than memes.

$HBAR follows up, up +18.5%, with volume of 59 million dollars. The Hedera ETF rumor comes around every year—every year people charge in. This time, the volume is real and really picked up.

My take: the broader market is pulling back, but money hasn’t left—it’s hiding out in “institutional narratives that look respectable.” Trade PUMP as a meme hard-bone short-term play. QNT/HBAR are old goblins that can only tag along—don’t take it as genuine value investing.

Reminder: Don’t let the 83k support break. If it breaks, these kinds of pullbacks from counter-trend rallies could come even faster than the rise itself. Play with a small position size—if it breaks, run.

Follow back, follow back—let’s follow each other

Weekend big-biscuit 84k lying sideways pretending to be dead, but in the gainers’ leaderboard the front row has people digging graves.

This is a “old coins reanimating” week; the protagonist is the privacy sector. $ZEC is over $1,600, up +6.9% in 24h; daily trading volume is $260M, and in 30 days it nearly doubled. Back in the last bull market, those ghost coins that were once in the thousands are back—grave grass three meters high, and they climbed up again.

$DASH is even more direct, +13.6%. This long-standing privacy narrative has been silent for almost three years. ZEC first paved the way, and DASH followed behind to open the coffin.

Even the old memes warmed up too—$SPELL +7%. The alt-season index touched 68; it’s just one step away from alt-season.

My take: This round for ZEC is about loosened regulation + institutions re-looking at the privacy track, so it’s more of a repricing than a simple pump. DASH, as the “catch-up” play, has bigger upside elasticity—but it also drops back fast.

Reminder: “reanimating” is a week-level thing—don’t chase intraday highs. For something like DASH that rallies in a straight line, wait for a pullback and then get on. To the brothers who once guarded the top of the DASH mountain back then—your chance is here again. This time, be a bit more cautious.

Bitcoin pancakes sideways at 84k—ETH is still green by just 1%, and honestly it looks kind of dull. But the top of the gainers list is actually pretty lively.

$ENA is the toughest today. Ethena and Binance expanded the USDe basis trade into equity perpetuals: bStocks are used as collateral. The reachable market goes from the $250B+ crypto market to the $150T+ traditional equity market. Binance’s Hold to Earn also added USDe, with a peak of 4.75% APR. After late September, the USDe incentives fully fade out—so the inflation goes away. Up today +17%, with volume hitting $130M. This isn’t memecoin stuff—it’s real structural money moving in.

$AERO is also strong, up +18%. Aerodrome is the liquidity hub on the Base chain—trades involving Base memecoins and tokenized RWA “stocks” all have to go through it. The recent surge in Base chain activity has also pulled DEX volume back up. As a venue token, AERO is being repriced by the capital again. The market cap isn’t large, but the narrative is solid.

$PHA is even weirder—up +31%. There’s a rotation in AI infrastructure: PHA has rebranded from privacy computing to “confidential AI” infrastructure. On OpenRouter, it processes hundreds of billions of tokens per day. The TEE + AI Agent story is right on the updraft. Market cap is only a bit over $60M, so the upside is huge—but the RSI is already 80+; chasing here can get you stuck.

These three aren’t in the same sector, but they share one thing: when Bitcoin is just ranging and nobody pays attention, they move first. Structural rotation like this is harder to catch than broad-based pumps, and it tests your reflexes even more.

Risk warning as usual: ENA has a major unlock on Oct 5, with 14% of circulating supply; AERO is tied to Base chain heat—when sentiment cools, it cools fast; PHA is overbought on RSI—risk of chasing is extremely high. Try with small size; if it breaks down, get out. Don’t learn by chasing like the people who chased NIL yesterday.

First, admit your mistake. Yesterday I wrote NIL, today -16%, I got buried. Chasing these妖 coins is just like that: mouth moves fast one day, the account lags half a beat—own it.

But the funds haven’t scattered; they’ve just changed nests. Today on Binance spot the top gainers are almost all game-chain projects.

$XAI led the charge, up +13% intraday. Its 24h volume was nearly $50 million, and in a day it roughly quadrupled. This coin is a longtime “old妖” that dropped from its ATH of 1.59 to -99.6%. Its market cap is only a little over $10 million. With a float this small, once speculative capital lights a fire, it surges—this is what makes it the most妖, and also the most deadly.

$SAGA is even more ruthless. In 7 days +247%, market cap $32 million, and 24h trading volume $180 million—volume is five times the market cap, and then some. With this kind of volume versus market cap, it’s no longer retail sweeping; it’s capital placing orders in the open. In the ecosystem, 80% are game projects, and it follows the same logic as XAI—everyone is betting on the game-chain theme.

BTC at 84.7k is just dead-still, moving sideways, up only 0.55% like nothing happened—while the altcoins are having their own feast. This kind of market looks a lot like Q4 of 2023: the mainstream doesn’t move,妖 coins jump in turns, and whoever waits in the right seat gets the meat.

Cold water as usual: SAGA’s peak at 0.078 last night is now 0.055—drawdown of nearly 30% fast. Anyone who chased at the highs has already been bagged. XAI is the same: pump then dump. Both are small caps—you enter quickly and exit even faster. Don’t YOLO; pull back and scale in, cut and run if it breaks down. Don’t end up the same way as the people who chased NIL yesterday.

A big Bitcoin pancake broke below 84k, and U.S. Treasury yields broke above 5%, hitting a new high since 2007—the market was directly stunned.

In 24 hours, 132,000 people were liquidated, totaling nearly $600 million. The meme sector averaged -7.56%, and it feels like a graveyard.

But “yɑo” coins never care about market sentiment.

$NIL led the way on Binance spot today, +37%; it’s up more than double in 7 days. The Dusk mainnet 9/28 roadmap countdown is on—there’s an unlock happening on 9/24 as well. The market somehow treats the unlock as good news, with reflexivity maxed out.

$RAY Solana ecosystem DEX is a hard nut—up +18% against the trend, +41% over 7 days. While SOL is falling, it’s rising; capital is finding certainty within Solana.

$BOME is even more absurd—there are memes buried in it, yet it’s still green on the day, +1%. While others lie flat, it keeps propping things up. That’s what you call truly “yɑo.”

Cold water: NIL’s market cap is only a bit over $70 million; futures OI is $18.5 million. The unlock window’s implied volatility is going to be off the charts. RAY also isn’t a low-entry startup—chasing is still risky. With the broader market not stable, this kind of independent move can only be played with a small position; if it breaks down, get out fast.

BTC is lying dead above 86k, not doing anything on the surface, while the funds are not idle—everything has rushed into memecoins to pick up old rogues.

Today’s standout in the sector is $MUBARAK . An old coin on the BNB Chain—one push and it’s up +29%. On Binance spot alone, it racked up more than 100 million U in volume in a single day. +155% over 7 days. This is one of those “zombie” old coins that came back from the CZ meme era—once it moves, it doesn’t do anything small.

$PENGU the penguin also followed, up +19%. I had been dismissing this coin for half a year, but now it looks like the whales are truly accumulating. $BONK is also up +12% for some added heat.

Most interesting of all: PEPE, which led the entire market yesterday, is actually pulling back today by -4.7%. The money in mainstream memes is moving out—relocating to these low-position “old rogues.” It’s a textbook-style catch-up rotation.

Cold shower: MUBARAK’s intraday amplitude is nearly doubling today—going from 0.04 to 0.08,7. The current price has already fallen back from the high. Chasing this kind of volatility is basically giving people a ride; I only look for pullbacks, not for buying the surge. If it breaks down, don’t talk feelings.

In a rotation market, hold the safe bets to eat the meat—chasing highs turns you into stand-by at the post.

The gambling whale is going crazy—this time it’s for real.

In a single day, the total market cap plunged by $160 billion, the biggest daily increase of this cycle. BTC straight-up pierced through 86K, hitting a new eight-month high. The Fear & Greed Index shot up to 78—extreme greed. Back on 9/10 it was only 33; in half a month it bounced from the ICU straight to the nightclub.

Most wild of all is $PEPE . In 24 hours, trading volume surged by 200%, breaking 1 billion USD. It smashed right through the pressure level of 0.00000458 that had been grinding for half a month. Binance spot is already up +32%. On-chain, there’s also a net outflow of 6.9 billion coins—all of it pulled to wallets for receiving. Volume and price are rising together—this isn’t fake.

In a day like this when everything rallies broadly, only watching the majors is pointless. Coins like $TURBO —those small-cap frog妖—are only up less than 10%, and volume is still thin, which means the rotation hasn’t hit it yet. Even $RUNE , an old DeFi妖 that’s been down for a year, just crawled back to life with +12%. Money is truly flowing out—spread-it-around style, with the rain and dew for everyone.

Cold shower: with greed at 78, PEPE’s four-hour RSI has run up to 82 and entered overbought territory. Chasing here is like helping people lift a chair for others—you get on only after the ride is already set up. If there’s a pullback, wait for support before boarding; if it breaks down, don’t talk about feelings. The fastest way to lose money in a bull market is to go all-in on the day the market is at its hottest.

Did you get on the train today, or are you still on the train and got thrown off again?

Today memes collectively chose to lie flat. DOGE +1.6%, SHIB +0.9%, WIF -1.8%. Over the weekend volumes shrank as it churned for two days—there isn’t a single one that’s actually any good.

Where did the money go? It went digging up graves.

$FTT +34%, FTX’s liquidation after bankruptcy has been lying there for nearly two years. Every time the overall market steadies, people bet it might rise again. With 7 million U, they pushed the price straight up. In this kind of market, you don’t need to look at fundamentals—sentiment is enough.

$LUNA +13.8%, same playbook. The orphaned survivors of a crash—no one brings up any technical roadmap anymore. What’s left is all emotion. Emotion is its only fundamental.

$SAGA +44%, number one on today’s gainers list. The two-year-declining modular chain got smashed to the floor. Then suddenly some capital came in to light the fuse, with trading volume reaching 33 million U.

The logic is pretty clear: in a ranging market, nobody wants to take the bag at the high end of popular memes. Instead, funds love to look for "things that are dead through." A zombie reanimating is where the odds are.

BTC 81k, Fear & Greed Index 70—risk appetite isn’t low, it’s just that there’s no direction. In times like this, I might use a small position to poke at zombie charts, but I know this—sure, the corpse can bounce once, but it doesn’t mean it can stand up and walk. If it breaks down, you leave—don’t talk feelings.

Which one are you trying to pump today?
