Fartcoin Flares Up, OM Collapses, and Bots Dominate

Every week in crypto is wild, but this one hit new highs and lows — literally. Between a meme-fueled Fartcoin pump, OM's haunting collapse, and bot traders rejoicing over Hyperliquid perps hitting major terminals, we dive deep into what’s turning heads, ticking bots, and tweeting traders.

This week saw major market shifts, with VTHO pumping +32.91% and OM crashing over -60%. Hyperliquid perps made their way into Quad Terminal, ushering in a new era of perps-fueled bot trading. Bot automation, meme coin mania, and terminal tech all took center stage.

🚀 When Meme Coins Pass Gas — Fartcoin Rises Again

If you thought crypto's meme coin era was over, say hello (again) to Fartcoin. This cheeky token, built on Solana and infamous for living up to its, ahem, effervescent name, posted a 6.8% gain this week — enough to trigger a flurry of sarcastic but oddly bullish tweets like “Fartcoin is the only use case for Solana.” You might dismiss this as noise, but history suggests meme coins are historically predictive of short-term speculative cycles. And right now? They’re heating up.

But Fartcoin was overshadowed (barely) by VeThor Token (VTHO), which led the gainers with a blistering +32.91%, followed by AERGO (+18.94%) and BRETT (+8.99%). While still largely under the radar, both VTHO and AERGO have seen upticks in volume paired with sudden community activity — a perfect storm for low-cap momentum trades.

Could these rallies be artificial? Possibly. But volume data suggests some systematic trading activity is behind the scenes. Worth noting: the duration of price movement was evenly distributed across multiple 4-hour candles for VTHO, indicating whales may be structuring DCA-style pump tactics.

📉 OM Gets Wrecked — “Down Bad” Is an Understatement

Now for the flip side. OM cratered by a catastrophic -60.1% this week. The Twitterverse responded with predictable panic: “OM down bad. Any news?” That's the thing — no clear trigger. No major hack, announcement, or unlock event. Which makes it even more disturbing because it either suggests insider sell-offs or critical market rot.

BABY and GAS also had a rough time, dropping -26.9% and -10.4%, respectively. But the real story here might be PENGU (-9.94%) and KAITO (-9.59%), both tokens connected to emerging DeFi protocols that haven’t yet established sticky liquidity. Could foreshadow an upcoming DeFi contraction — or ripe hunting ground for volatility traders in the coming days.

🤖 The Bots Are Coming… for Your Terminal

The market might be wobbling, but traders are building. Hyperliquid perps just went live on several terminals, including Quadency — now rebranded as simply “Quad Terminal.” Paired with copy trading bots and the reintroduction of indicator-based automation (MACD, Bollinger, Mean Reversion), this signals a huge push to democratize pro-level execution even for retail traders.

Bot support for Hyperliquid perps is already in the queue, and insider chatter points toward Kucoin Futures integration soon. Expect the algo crowd to pivot heavily into these new perps markets in Q2, especially with volatility tailwinds fueling new bot strategies.

🔍 Social Chatter Tracker

Crypto Twitter’s mood this week is a little manic but optimistic. Gem hunters are out in full force (@100xAltcoinGems is busy), while traders are posting setups using legacy TA paired with automation tools — bullish convergence of narrative and platform.

Also, the terminal update is getting buzz. As one dev wrote, “Supercharge crypto trading. → One terminal → Every top exchange → Max automation.” That's not just a vision. It may be the roadmap guiding trading desk strategy as we head into summer 2025. Watch the bots. They will guide you.

📉 Market Gainers & Losers This Week

    - VTHO: +32.91%
    - AERGO: +18.94%
    - BRETT: +8.99%
    - CHEX: +7.21%

    - KAITO: -9.59%

📊 Is Altcoin Season Trying to Sneak Back?

While Bitcoin is playing it cool around its new highs, altcoins have quietly started rotating. Several low-cap coins saw spikes in both volume and engagement this week, while BTC dominance slid 0.3%. It's not definitive yet, but historically that combo has signaled a soft start to altcoin season.

Pair this with the bot ecosystem expanding perps access and you may have ideal conditions for short-term scalping and cross-chain arbitrage plays — particularly with tokens moving between centralized and DEX liquidity infrastructures.

💡 Final Thought: Watch the Micro-Movements

Crypto moves fast, but it's the mid-size rallies and stealth integrations (like Hyperliquid perps) that often set up the next big momentum cycles. Whether you're hoarding meme tokens or perfecting your terminal strategy, this week’s data suggests that paying attention to infrastructure is as useful as watching the charts.

The playbook is shifting from prediction to automation and execution. Make sure your bots know what’s up — because everyone else’s already do.

Newsworthy

Hyperliquid perpetuals are now supported in the Quad Terminal, with bot integrations imminent. Paired with copy-trading rollouts and technical bots, this may be the biggest retail-onboarding moment since Uniswap v3.

Pro-Tip:

If you’re not running bots on perps, you’re already behind. Start with MACD or Mean Reversion scripts and test on low-volatility pairs first. Bonus: watch CHEX and BRETT for potential continuation setups.
