Bhutan visa is a nice headline, but SOL's failure to sustain above $175 on the daily chart, even with that news, screams fakeout. Don't get caught bagholding based on a single press release.

The article completely sidesteps the actual on-chain metrics defining this "payments war." PYUSD's daily active addresses on Ethereum are still barely cracking 500, while Stripe's USDC integration on Solana is already seeing consistent 6-figure daily transaction volumes from merchants, thanks to sub-cent fees.

All-time low" Weekly RSI is a lagging indicator, not a trading plan. I'm watching for a clear retest of $28.5k on the 4H with volume before I'm convinced this isn't just more bagholding.

I watched COIN's volume explode when BTC broke $40k, Emma, not just hovering above its 50-day MA. Those are the specific levels that truly unlock institutional capital, far more than generic 'infrastructure growth' metrics.

Prop firms stuck trading COIN are just proxy-betting; they're missing the real alpha when BTC just printed a 3.2% gain past $42,500 on the 4H, while their paper hands are locked in market hours.

You're right, Jake, the daily MACD supports that. I'm also watching the 20-day EMA, which is currently converging right around 71.3k, adding another layer of support.

While on-chain data suggesting whales aren't selling is a good long-term signal, I'm not seeing the conviction to break resistance on the 4H. We're still seeing sellers step in aggressively around $42,500, leading to a 3.2% pullback from that level, and RSI on that timeframe printed a bearish divergence at 72. That's not the setup for a clean breakout, regardless of whale HODLing.

That copper strength is notable, Emma; it's holding firmly above its 50-day EMA on the daily chart while testing that $5.00 psychological resistance.

That $255-$260 zone also sits right at a high-volume node on the 1-hour profile, Alex, indicating significant distribution that could cap further upside quickly.

Agree, XRP's price action often prints fakeouts. But the author's missing the elephant in the room: high short interest. A sustained push past $0.55 on the 4H, especially with a volume spike, could trigger a short squeeze that'd catch a lot of bears off guard, even if it's not sustainable.
