Bitcoin soared past $23,000 this week, stealing headlines while altcoins quietly staged their own party—and in some corners, a funeral. From AI-driven trading bot upgrades to renewed DeFi narratives and the usual meme chaos, it's been a fascinating few days in crypto.
MYX leads the week with a 21.67% gain amid renewed AI interest. USELESS stuns skeptics with a 14.34% rebound. Bitcoin soars to $23K behind positive macro sentiment, while altcoin watchers debate over whether we’re entering a full-fledged altseason.
It's official: Bitcoin has ripped through $23,000, posting a new all-time high and sending Crypto Twitter into full-blown celebration mode. But if you’re only watching BTC, you’re missing the real fireworks lower down the leaderboard. Altcoins are dancing, memecoins are misbehaving (what else is new?), and the market feels hotter than a Solidity dev’s GitHub after airdrop szn.
While BTC dominance grew, retail and degenerates alike began peeking back into their dusty “low-cap gem” folders. “Altseason” isn’t here yet—capital rotations suggest we might still be buckling our seatbelt—but we’re certainly being offered the peanuts and watching the fasten seatbelt sign flicker.
This week’s standout movers read like a cocktail of chaos and moon juice. Leading the gainers was MYX, exploding 21.67% on no clear news, but plenty of speculation that it's riding wave two of the AI-powered Web3 tools trend. USELESS rebounded 14.34%, bouncing back from a brutal July that saw it become a running joke and Twitter punching bag.
On the downside? It’s rough out there. Projects like M (-9.39%) and ARB (-8.85%) took body blows, reflecting either whale exits or poor sentiment rotation. BERA, ZORA, and the ever-volatile BRETT also sold off sharply.
Following Bitcoin’s charge, on-chain smoke signals started emerging from the DeFi sector. Pendle and Aero both surged over 20% earlier this week, sparking a broader narrative revival around yield strategies and governance 3.0 vibes. For those who remember 2021’s flywheel mechanics, this feels eerily familiar—though still in the opening scenes.
Crypto Twitter’s been whispering “altseason” with cautious enthusiasm, but the stats say rotation is alive, if not yet in frenzy. Backend data has shown inflows shifting from majors like ETH into mid-cap infrastructure and DeFi protocols—always a canary in the coal mine for cyclic shifts.
If AI-driven trading bots were already clever, they just got dangerously smart. The Cody AI stack—spanning Tools like Cody GPT, Cody AI Bot, and its Assistant—has upgraded across the board to OpenAI’s GPT-5. The community’s response? A wave of screenshots showing more accurate backtests, meta-strategy outputs, and eerily prescient trade suggestions.
As retail and pro traders integrate more AI into signal generation and execution, expect competitive edges to sharpen across all strategies—especially in the high-frequency and market-making domain where milliseconds and model tweaks mean margins.
Just last month, Twitter was chanting $FARTCOIN and MOG memes from the rooftops. Now, we’re seeing signs of cracked enthusiasm. Sure, one new unnamed meme pumped 200% in a 24h period (details scarce as of publishing), but the overall sentiment hints at fatigue. BRETT down nearly 8%, and last month’s darling PUMP remains in a death spiral after influencers dumped and ran. Zero chill on the timeline.
USELESS surprised bears and skeptics by bouncing this week, but can the revival last? Memecoin cycles tend to move in dog years, and its survival likely depends on upcoming developer releases or a lucky influencer bump—not fundamentals.
Meanwhile, the team at Quad Terminal deserves a standing ovation from high-frequency and quant shops. A flurry of recent updates—support for Kraken Perps, sound alerts, lightning-fast tickers, and safety-first dashboards—has made it one of the most robust platforms outside of institutional walls. The devs stay grinding, and it shows in usage metrics and Twitter shout-outs alike.
The terminal now plays nice with futures, integrations, and news feeds all in one slick UX. This isn’t a paid placement—we just know good tools when we see 'em.
That’s the billion-dollar question. While BTC breaking $20k and then $23k is undeniably bullish, we aren’t quite at parabolic altcoin behavior yet. However, the signs are there—capital rotating, new narratives forming, idle protocols waking up (looking at you, Pendle), and sentiment on Twitter flickering between FOMO and ironic detachment.
Smart traders—especially those leaning into market making and arbitrage—have a buffet of inefficiencies forming across CEX/DEX spreads and long tail pairs. The name of the game now is reaction speed and model precision. If you’re manually placing bids, respectfully, you’re already late.
