Track market-moving stories before they get noisy

New York, New York--(Newsfile Corp. - June 24, 2026) - WHY: Rosen Law Firm, a global investor rights law firm, reminds purchasers of Class A or Class C common stock of Zillow Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZG) (NASDAQ: Z) between February 11, 2025 and May 7, 2026, both dates inclusive (the "Class Period"), of the important August 10, 2026 lead plaintiff deadline in the securities class action first filed by the Firm.

SO WHAT: If you purchased Zillow common stock during the Class Period you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement.

WHAT TO DO NEXT: To join the Zillow class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/zillow-group-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action. A class action lawsuit has already been filed. If you wish to serve as lead plaintiff, you must move the Court no later than August 10, 2026. A lead plaintiff is a representative party acting on behalf of other class members in directing the litigation.

WHY ROSEN LAW: We encourage investors to select qualified counsel with a track record of success in leadership roles. Often, firms issuing notices do not have comparable experience, resources, or any meaningful peer recognition. Many of these firms do not actually handle securities class actions, but are merely middlemen that refer clients or partner with law firms that actually litigate the cases. Be wise in selecting counsel. The Rosen Law Firm represents investors throughout the globe, concentrating its practice in securities class actions and shareholder derivative litigation. Rosen Law Firm achieved the largest ever securities class action settlement against a Chinese Company at the time. Rosen Law Firm was Ranked No. 1 by ISS Securities Class Action Services for number of securities class action settlements in 2017. The firm has been ranked in the top 4 each year since 2013 and has recovered hundreds of millions of dollars for investors. In 2019 alone the firm secured over $438 million for investors. In 2020, founding partner Laurence Rosen was named by law360 as a Titan of Plaintiffs' Bar. Many of the firm's attorneys have been recognized by Lawdragon and Super Lawyers.

DETAILS OF THE CASE: According to the lawsuit, defendants throughout the Class Period made materially false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that: (1) Zillow's agreement with Redfin Corporation was not a "partnership," but rather an acquisition of Redfin's business; (2) as a result of the Redfin Agreement, Zillow faced a materially heightened risk of regulatory scrutiny and liability under federal antitrust laws; (3) upon the filing of an antitrust lawsuit, Zillow continued to downplay its legal exposure; and (4) as a result, defendants' statements about Zillow's business, operations, and prospects, were materially false and misleading and/or lacked a reasonable basis at all relevant times. When the true details entered the market, the lawsuit claims that investors suffered damages.

To join the Zillow class action, go to https://rosenlegal.com/cases/zillow-group-inc/join or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email [email protected] for information on the class action.

No Class Has Been Certified. Until a class is certified, you are not represented by counsel unless you retain one. You may select counsel of your choice. You may also remain an absent class member and do nothing at this point. An investor's ability to share in any potential future recovery is not dependent upon serving as lead plaintiff.

SKL: Bridging Made Effortless: Introducing Portal 5.1 for SKALE Base

In brief The Labor Department launched an AI apprenticeship portal on Wednesday. The site offers AI literacy tools and industry-specific training resources. The move signals a broader federal push to prepare workers for AI adoption. The U.S. Department of Labor on Wednesday announced the launch of a new website aimed at helping workers and employers build artificial intelligence skills and expand AI-focused apprenticeship programs.

The website, called the AI in Registered Apprenticeship Innovation Portal, debuted during a National Apprenticeship Week event as a one-stop resource to help organizations build AI literacy and create or update Registered Apprenticeship programs with AI-related skills.

“The department is committed to ensuring that every American has the opportunity to thrive in our nation's workforce, especially in a world that is rapidly being reshaped by artificial intelligence,” Acting Secretary of Labor Keith Sonderling said in a statement, calling it a major step forward in preparing the American workforce for the jobs of the future.

The announcement also comes amid growing fear that artificial intelligence could disrupt or replace jobs across industries, prompting growing pressure on the government and employers to provide training and pathways to adapt to the technology.

The apprenticeship initiative builds on the department’s AI Literacy Framework, released in February, which offers guidance for integrating AI skills into apprenticeship programs through training resources, industry-specific tools, and flexible pathways.

According to the Labor Department, the portal organizes its resources into three areas: AI skills and literacy in Registered Apprenticeship programs, AI skill-building by industry, and ways to integrate AI into existing or new apprenticeship programs. It includes AI training modules tailored to industries, including education, finance, healthcare, and advanced manufacturing.

“The launch reflects this Administration’s commitment to ensuring American workers and businesses are equipped to lead in an AI-driven economy,” Assistant Secretary for Employment and Training Henry Mack said in a statement. “By providing employers with the resources to develop AI-ready Registered Apprenticeship programs and workers with the skills to thrive in them, the Department is taking concrete action to build the workforce of the future, today.”

The department said employers can also use the portal to join existing national apprenticeship programs, create new programs for AI-focused roles, or update existing programs to include AI-related skills.

The announcement also comes as the Donald Trump administration pushes a broader national AI agenda, including a White House policy framework released in March that calls for federal AI standards, expanded infrastructure, and a unified national approach to issues ranging from workforce development and child safety to innovation, and free speech as businesses and government agencies adapt to the technology’s rapid spread across industries.

“The Trump Administration is committed to winning the AI race to usher in a new era of human flourishing, economic competitiveness, and national security for the American people,” the White House said in a statement. “Achieving these goals requires a commonsense national policy framework that both enables American industry to innovate and thrive and ensures that all Americans benefit from this technological revolution.”

950 organic holders, $3.6M market cap, zero paid marketing. Launching alongside a Summer 2026 World Tour spanning 13 countries and a 12-week Pacha Ibiza residency. Starting with BLOND:ISH, built for every artist

IBIZA, Spain – April 28th, 2026 — BLOND:ISH, the internationally touring DJ and producer Vivie-Ann Bakos, has launched The NRG Portal — a token-gated access platform on Solana that replaces the broken guestlist system in live music with on-chain infrastructure. The Portal launches alongside her Summer 2026 World Tour: 45+ shows across 13 countries from May to August, anchored by a 12-week residency at Pacha Ibiza and headline appearances at Primavera Sound, Pukkelpop, Loveland, and Slottsfjell. The Portal is live at everythingisnrg.xyz 

The Problem: 500 DMs Per Show Every BLOND:ISH show generates hundreds of direct messages from fans requesting guestlist and backstage access. Fans DM promoters who ghost them, beg friends-of-friends, stand in line hoping, and get turned away. Artists face a different version of the same problem — no fair way to choose, guilt from saying no, middlemen taking cuts, and a lost direct connection with their community. The guestlist system in dance music has been broken since it was invented.

The Solution: Access as Infrastructure $NRG replaces DMs, luck, and who-you-know with a transparent, on-chain access layer. Holders who maintain $NRG for 30 days unlock guestlist and backstage access at any BLOND:ISH or Abracadabra show worldwide,  over 120 performances annually across 30+ cities.

The Portal operates on a three-tier membership system based on token holdings:

Explorer (13,333 $NRG) — 2 guestlist spots per year, early access to unreleased music Insider (100,000 $NRG) — 4 guestlist + 2 backstage spots per year, 20% burn discount, guaranteed popup access Supreme (333,333 $NRG) — 8 guestlist + 4 backstage spots per year, 40% burn discount, guaranteed popup access Backstage access requires burning $NRG,  permanently removing tokens from circulation. Every burn shrinks total supply, meaning every remaining holder benefits each time someone walks backstage. A non-holder Fast Track option also exists for one-time guestlist or backstage access, though holding $NRG is always cheaper.

Not a Meme. Energy as Infrastructure. $NRG is positioned not as a speculative token but as coordination infrastructure for artist-fan access at scale. The portal organizes all inbound demand around BLOND:ISH and Abracadabra,  from fans who want guestlist and backstage, to unreleased music, to partners who want to collaborate.

Access is the real currency in culture, and right now it’s negotiated in the worst place possible: scattered DMs, luck, and who you know. $NRG is a coordination layer that makes access scalable for the people in my culture and for partners who want skin in the game. My goal is to unlock one billion people living their best life through my music, and $NRG is how that scales.

— Vivie-Ann Bakos, founder of $NRG and creator of the Abracadabra event series The model is designed to extend beyond a single artist. The two-sided problem: fans with no reliable path to access, artists drowning in unmanageable demand – exists for every performing artist in the world. $NRG starts with BLOND:ISH and is built for everyone.

Since launching organically with no paid marketing, $NRG has grown to 950 holders with a market capitalization of $3.6 million on Solana.

Holders can now claim guestlist and backstage at any Summer 2026 tour date, including the Pacha Ibiza residency, Primavera Sound, Pukkelpop, Loveland, and the already-sold-out Toronto Sunnyside Sessions — at everythingisnrg.xyz 

About $NRG $NRG is the access token of the BLOND:ISH and Abracadabra universe, built on Solana. Not a meme, energy as infrastructure. It replaces broken guestlist systems with token-gated, on-chain membership that scales with the artist’s culture.

What Happened in the THORChain Exploit? THORChain has confirmed a $10 million exploit and launched a recovery portal for affected users, giving them a self-custodial route to revoke malicious token approvals and submit refund claims backed by a treasury-funded pool of the same size.

The protocol said affected users can now check what compensation they are eligible to receive after the attack. The recovery portal cites a PeckShield post-mortem saying the exploit was detected at 02:14 UTC on May 11, when node operators flagged anomalous outbound transactions. Trading and outbound signing were paused within 8 minutes.

The attacker drained 36.75 BTC, worth about $3 million, along with roughly $7 million in tokens across BNB Chain, Ethereum and Base. The incident affected 12,847 wallets across 4 chains, making it another reminder that cross-chain infrastructure remains one of DeFi’s most exposed risk areas.

How Will User Compensation Work? Affected users have 21 days to submit claims through THORChain’s recovery portal. The refund window closes on June 4, after which any unclaimed allocation will roll over into the protocol’s insurance fund.

The refund structure is important because it gives users a defined recovery path rather than leaving compensation open-ended. The treasury-provisioned pool also limits the immediate reputational damage by matching the reported exploit size, though it does not remove the deeper security questions raised by the breach.

For users, the main practical issue is timing. Claims must be submitted before the deadline, and users also need to revoke malicious approvals through the recovery process. For the protocol, the larger challenge is proving that the compromised infrastructure has been isolated and that similar vault-level risks cannot reappear.

Investor Takeaway THORChain’s refund pool may reduce immediate user losses, but the exploit raises a broader valuation issue for DeFi protocols: treasury strength now matters only if security architecture can protect the assets those treasuries are meant to support.

How Was THORChain Drained? THORChain said the leading theory is that the attacker exploited a vulnerability in the GG20 threshold signature scheme implementation. According to the protocol, the flaw allowed sensitive vault key material to leak gradually. After accumulating enough leaked data over time, the attacker was able to reconstruct the vault’s private key and authorize unauthorized outbound transactions.

The protocol also said a newly churned node entered the network several days before the attack and is currently believed to be linked to the incident. THORChain said onchain links were identified between the node’s bonding addresses and wallets that received the stolen funds.

“The Treasury is actively collecting forensic data and coordinating with Outrider Analytics and relevant law enforcement agencies in an effort to identify the attacker and pursue recovery of stolen funds where possible,” the protocol wrote.

The mechanics of the exploit matter because they point beyond a simple smart contract failure. If the leading theory is correct, the breach involved vault key reconstruction through leaked threshold-signature material, placing node operations, key management and cross-chain signing controls at the center of the investigation.

Why Does This Matter for DeFi Security? The THORChain exploit comes after a sharp rise in crypto losses. Crypto hacks reached $629.7 million in April, the worst month for the industry since February 2025, when $1.47 billion was stolen. KelpDAO’s $293 million exploit and Drift Protocol’s $280 million hack accounted for most of April’s losses, representing 82% of the total.

MySDMC SSO (My School District of Manatee County Single Sign-On) is the official centralized login portal for students, parents, teachers, and staff in Manatee County, Florida. Access it at launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools. One set of district credentials unlocks Canvas, Microsoft 365, Google Classroom, Schoology, Focus SIS, WebNet, IXL Learning, and all other district-approved applications — no separate logins required. The portal is free, mobile-compatible, and available 24/7.

Key Takeaways:

Official login URL: launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools (ClassLink LaunchPad for Manatee Schools) Single sign-on: one username and password gives access to all district apps including Focus, Canvas, Schoology, and Microsoft 365 Mobile app: download ClassLink LaunchPad on iOS or Android — select “Manatee County School District” on setup Pre-K through Grade 2 students use Quickcard QR codes instead of typed passwords IT Service Desk: (941) 209-7400 | System status: status.mysdmc.manateeschools.net What Is MySDMC SSO? MySDMC SSO stands for My School District of Manatee County Single Sign-On. It is the centralized digital authentication gateway used by the School District of Manatee County (SDMC) — Florida’s 36th largest school district — to give every student, teacher, parent, and staff member secure access to all district educational tools through a single login.

Before SSO systems like this existed, users had to maintain separate usernames and passwords for every educational platform: one for Schoology, another for Canvas, another for Microsoft 365, another for the Focus gradebook, and so on. MySDMC SSO eliminates this by acting as a master key — log in once, and every district-approved application is instantly accessible from a single dashboard without re-entering credentials.

The system is powered by ClassLink, an enterprise education technology company whose LaunchPad SSO platform is used by school districts across the United States. Manatee County’s instance runs at launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools and is provided at no cost to all enrolled students, parents, and district employees.

Who Uses MySDMC SSO? The portal serves four distinct user groups within the Manatee County school community:

Students use MySDMC SSO to access their assignments, digital textbooks, grade reports, collaborative tools (Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams), and all curriculum platforms. Students from Pre-K through Grade 12 are provisioned with district credentials from enrollment.

Teachers and Staff use it to manage class rosters, submit grades, access curriculum resources, complete HR-related functions through WebNet, and use district-wide communication tools. Employee credentials are issued by the district’s IT department.

Parents and Guardians access MySDMC SSO primarily to reach the Focus Parent Portal — where they can monitor their child’s grades, attendance records, assignment completion, and school announcements. Parent accounts are separate from student accounts and require initial setup through the child’s school office.

Administrators use the SSO platform for school management functions, staff directory access, and district-level reporting dashboards.

How to Log Into MySDMC SSO: Step-by-Step Method 1: Browser login (desktop or mobile browser)

Open any web browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge) Navigate to launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools — this is the official ClassLink LaunchPad for Manatee County Schools Enter your district-issued username and password Students: use your student ID number as username + district-assigned password Teachers/Staff: use your employee email credentials Parents: use the credentials provided during Focus Parent Portal setup Click Sign In Your personalized dashboard loads, showing all accessible applications as tiles Click any app tile to launch it — no additional login required Tip: Bookmark launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools for faster daily access. On Chrome, you can also add it to your home screen for one-tap access on mobile.

Method 2: ClassLink LaunchPad mobile app

Download the ClassLink LaunchPad app from the Apple App Store or Google Play Store (search “ClassLink LaunchPad”) Open the app and search for “Manatee County School District” Select the district and enter your login credentials Your full app dashboard appears — identical to the browser version The mobile app adds push notifications and QR badge login not available in the browser Method 3: MySDMC Focus App (separate app)

The MySDMC Focus app is a standalone application for accessing the Focus Student Information System specifically. Download from:

Google Play: search “MySDMC Focus” (package: com.focusschoolsoftware.mysdmc) Apple App Store: search “MySDMC Focus” (App ID: 1508420361) The Focus app requires the same SSO credentials as the ClassLink portal.

What Apps Are Available in MySDMC SSO? The MySDMC SSO dashboard provides access to the full suite of district-approved educational platforms. The specific tiles visible on your dashboard depend on your user role (student, teacher, parent, staff):

ApplicationPurposeUsersFocus SISGrades, attendance, schedulesStudents, Parents, TeachersCanvasLearning management, assignmentsStudents, TeachersSchoologyCourse content, collaborationStudents, TeachersMicrosoft 365Word, Excel, Teams, emailAll usersGoogle ClassroomAssignments, Drive, MeetStudents, TeachersIXL LearningMath and language arts practiceStudentsPearsonDigital textbooks and assessmentsStudents, TeachersWebNetHR, payroll, employee functionsStaff onlyCleverApp launcher for younger studentsK-5 StudentsDiscovery EducationVideo and curriculum resourcesStudents, Teachers The dashboard is personalized — students see student-facing apps; teachers see classroom management tools and student data. Administrators see district-wide management dashboards not visible to other user types.

Students using the portal for academic research increasingly supplement district tools with AI assistants. ChatGOT is a free multi-model AI chatbot — no sign-up needed for 10 daily queries — that students use alongside school platforms for homework help, essay drafting, and research summaries across GPT-4o, Claude, and Gemini simultaneously.

MySDMC SSO Focus: The Gradebook Portal The Focus Student Information System (Focus SIS) — accessible directly through MySDMC SSO — is the most frequently used tool for both parents and students monitoring academic progress. Focus contains:

For students:

Current grades in all classes Assignment completion status and scores Attendance records (absences, tardies, early releases) Class schedule and room assignments Upcoming assignment due dates Standardized test score history For parents (Focus Parent Portal):

All of the above for their enrolled child/children Direct messaging to teachers Notification settings for grade thresholds (e.g., alert when a grade drops below 70%) Bus route and transportation information Fee payment and lunch account management Parents access Focus through the same MySDMC SSO portal. If you have not yet set up your parent account, contact your child’s school office directly — they will issue initial credentials linked to your child’s student record.

MySDMC SSO for Pre-K Through Grade 2: Quickcards Young students in Pre-K through Grade 2 typically cannot type complex passwords reliably. MySDMC SSO addresses this with Quickcards — printed cards containing a unique QR code assigned to each young student.

To log in using a Quickcard:

Open the ClassLink LaunchPad app on a device camera Select the QR code / Quickcard login option Hold the student’s Quickcard in front of the device camera The system reads the QR code and logs the student into their age-appropriate app dashboard Quickcards are distributed by teachers at the beginning of the school year. If a Quickcard is lost or damaged, the classroom teacher or school office can print a replacement.

Resetting Your MySDMC SSO Password Self-service reset (recommended):

Go to launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools Click “Help, I forgot my password” or “Forgot Password” below the login fields Follow the on-screen recovery steps (typically involves entering your student ID or email and answering a security question) Create a new password meeting the district’s password requirements If self-service reset fails:

Students: contact your school’s front office or media center — staff can reset student passwords during school hours Parents: contact your child’s school office directly; parent account passwords are managed at the school level Staff/Teachers: contact the IT Service Desk at (941) 209-7400 during business hours (Monday–Friday, 7:30 AM – 4:30 PM) Password requirements: District passwords typically require a minimum of 8 characters, at least one number, and at least one special character. Students may be given a temporary password on first login that must be changed immediately.

MySDMC SSO Troubleshooting Problem: Can’t reach the login page

Check your internet connection Try a different browser or clear cache/cookies in your current browser Check if the district is experiencing a system outage at status.mysdmc.manateeschools.net If a 302 redirect error appears on focus.manateeschools.net, use the direct ClassLink URL: launchpad.classlink.com/manateeschools Problem: Username or password not accepted

Confirm you are using your current district credentials (passwords expire periodically) Students: verify your student ID number is correct — no leading zeros are usually needed Try the self-service password reset tool Contact your school’s front office if reset is unavailable Problem: Dashboard loads but specific app won’t open

The issue may be with that specific application’s server, not the SSO Try opening the application in a new tab or incognito window If the app is Google Workspace, check G Suite status at workspace.google.com/status Report persistent app-specific issues to IT at (941) 209-7400 Problem: Mobile app not working

Ensure you have the latest version of ClassLink LaunchPad installed Verify you selected “Manatee County School District” (not a different district) Delete and reinstall the app if login loops occur Check that your device’s date/time is set correctly — incorrect device time can cause authentication failures Problem: Parent portal not showing child’s information

Confirm your parent account is properly linked to your child’s student record Contact your child’s school office if the link is missing — they can update the parent-student association Some changes (new enrollment, class changes) take 24–48 hours to appear in Focus MySDMC SSO on Mobile: ClassLink LaunchPad App Features The ClassLink LaunchPad mobile app (iOS and Android) offers several features beyond the basic browser experience:

Push notifications: Receive alerts for new assignments, grade updates, or school announcements QR badge login: Students can display a personal QR code on their device screen for quick station login in computer labs Biometric authentication: Face ID and fingerprint login on supported devices Offline access: Some resources remain accessible offline after initial load Instant directory: Browse school staff contacts directly from the app The app is available at no cost on the Apple App Store and Google Play. After installing, select “Manatee County School District” from the district search to connect to the correct ClassLink instance.

MySDMC SSO Security The School District of Manatee County prioritizes cybersecurity and student data privacy within the SSO system:

Encrypted connections: All data transmitted through the portal uses HTTPS/TLS encryption Multi-factor authentication (MFA): Available for staff accounts as an additional security layer FERPA compliance: Student educational records are protected under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act COPPA compliance: The district’s data handling meets Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act requirements for students under 13 Centralized access control: When a student withdraws or staff member separates, all application access is revoked from one central point — immediately and automatically Activity monitoring: District IT can monitor unusual login patterns to detect unauthorized access attempts Students and parents should never share SSO credentials with anyone — including friends — as this violates district acceptable use policies and can result in disciplinary action.

The broader question of who controls student identity data is increasingly relevant as schools digitize. While MySDMC SSO centralizes access through ClassLink, an emerging alternative model uses blockchain-based decentralized identity (DID) — explored in Ontology’s $10 million DID initiative, which would let students own and control their credentials rather than relying on district-managed portals.

Key Takeaways WIF defended $0.76 support as whales accumulated on spot markets. Open Interest rose, reinforcing optimism, but cooling futures activity raised caution, hinting at consolidation before any decisive upside breakout.

dogwifhat [WIF] retested its key ascending trendline support at around $ 0.76 on the 26th of August. The support level has repeatedly cushioned pullbacks this year.

The memecoin showed early signs of stabilization on the daily chart. Buyers were defending the level as seen from the accumulating bullish momentum.

CryptoQuant’s Spot Average Order Size chart showed consistent Big Whale Orders on the Spot market, suggesting confidence in WIF’s medium-term outlook.

Historically, whales avoid chasing short-term spikes. Their steady activity lent credibility to projections of a longer-term bullish run.

If this level holds, the bullish momentum could persist, potentially driving the token toward higher resistance zones in the upcoming sessions, especially with strong whale demand acting as a catalyst.

However, if Futures Volume continues to decline, upward momentum may weaken before a breakout can materialize. 

In that case, WIF could enter a phase of sideways consolidation, limiting near-term price action.

Summarize this article with:

After one of the steepest sell-offs in crypto history, digital assets have begun to recover. A renewed wave of buying has lifted both memecoins and major tokens, driven by easing tensions between the U.S. and China and a rebound in overall market sentiment.

In brief Memecoin market cap jumps to $68.8B, with Dogecoin, WIF, and PENGU leading double-digit gains. Bitcoin recovers to $115,227 after flash crash; major altcoins like ETH and SOL also rally. Arjun Vijay calls the crash a “temporary glitch,” driven by cascading liquidations and leverage. Analysts say the correction cleared excess leverage, setting the stage for a stronger market rebound. Top Memecoins Surge as Crypto Market Recovers from Massive Selloff Memecoins staged a sharp recovery on Monday as crypto markets bounced back from one of the worst liquidation events in recent history. The sector’s total market capitalization climbed to $68.8 billion, up 12.6% on the day, according to market data.

Here’s how the top memecoins performed during the session:

Dogecoin (DOGE) jumped 11.9% to trade at $0.21, leading the memecoin rebound. Dogwifhat (WIF) posted the strongest gain, soaring 18.4% in 24 hours. Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) followed closely with a 17.5% surge as traders returned to riskier assets. Pepe (PEPE) also advanced, climbing 13.2% amid renewed market momentum. Bonk (BONK) rose 15.3%, extending its strong performance from last week. Shiba Inu (SHIB) added 9.4%, rounding out the memecoin sector’s broad recovery. The strong performance across memecoins reflected a renewed appetite for risk following last week’s market turmoil.

Friday’s selloff wiped out nearly $20 billion in digital asset positions, with Bitcoin (BTC) plunging from $121,000 to as low as $109,000 in a single day. By Monday morning, BTC had recovered to $115,227, up 2.9%, while major altcoins also rallied—Ethereum (ETH) rose 8.4%, BNB (BNB) gained 12.2%, and Solana (SOL) added 8.7%.

Arjun Vijay Calls Flash Crash a ‘Temporary Glitch’ as Memecoins Lead the Comeback Arjun Vijay, the founder of the crypto exchange Giottus, said the rebound was expected following the recent “flash crash.” He explained that cascading liquidations drove the previous drop and that high-risk assets, such as memecoins, typically recover the fastest during market rebounds.

The flash crash was a temporary glitch and was caused by the cascading liquidations, and everyone was expecting a rebound. During the rebound, the riskiest assets and those that crashed the most are expected to rebound the maximum. So it is no surprise that people are betting on memecoins, and this is leading to a virtuous cycle.

Arjun Vijay The crash was triggered by President Donald Trump’s announcement of a “massive increase” in tariffs on Chinese imports, as well as the cancellation of a planned meeting with President Xi Jinping. 

Predictably, the move sparked fears of renewed trade tensions, sending global markets lower and fueling liquidations across crypto exchanges. However, sentiment improved over the weekend.

Crypto Correction Clears Excessive Leverage, Paving Way for Stronger Market A spokesperson for China’s Ministry of Commerce accused the United States of unfair trade actions and excessive export controls. Later, Trump struck a more conciliatory tone on Truth Social, saying the U.S. aims to support rather than harm China.

Prediction markets on Myriad still assign only a 9% chance of Trump visiting China before the end of the year, reflecting lingering uncertainty.

Despite the volatility, market participants say the correction could ultimately strengthen the crypto ecosystem. Charmaine Tam, head of OTC sales and trading at Hex Trust, called the event “a healthy reset.”

Tam noted that the recent market drop helped clear excessive leverage from the system, describing it as a constructive correction that could strengthen the market over time. She added that institutional infrastructure remained stable throughout the volatility. With Bitcoin’s dominance staying below 60.5%, altcoins may now be positioned to lead as liquidity returns.

As risk appetite improves and geopolitical concerns ease, memecoins appear to be at the forefront of the recovery—once again proving their ability to capture momentum when markets turn.

TICKERWIFBLOCKCHAINSolanaCATEGORYMeme coinLAUNCHED ONNovember 2023 With a market cap of around $4 billion, Dogwifhat (WIF) is now the third biggest meme coin after DOGE and SHIB – a feat it achieved within four months of its launch. The project’s success is attributed to its catchy meme concept of a dog wearing a hat. 

Additionally, WIF’s rise has also positively impacted Solana’s recovery, as investors had to buy SOL to convert it into WIF. Further, the community’s ambitious fundraising campaign to display their meme on the Las Vegas Sphere raised nearly $700,000.

WIF 24H Technicals dogwifhat (WIF) ranks 112nd on CoinMarketCap in terms of its market capitalization. The overview of the WIF price prediction for 2025 is explained below with a daily time frame.

WIF/USDT Ascending Triangle Pattern (Source: TradingView) In the above chart, dogwifhat (WIF) laid out a Ascending Triangle pattern The ascending triangle is a characteristic pattern of an ongoing bullish trend. This triangle is formed by a horizontal upper trendline that connects the highs, indicating a consistent level of resistance, and a lower trendline that connects the rising lows, reflecting increasing buying pressure.

As the price approaches the apex of the triangle, the tension between buyers and sellers intensifies. If the trend breaks out at the resistance level, the price will continue to move up in this ascending triangle pattern, often leading to further gains. Traders typically look for confirmation of the breakout, which can enhance the likelihood of a successful upward move.

At the time of analysis, dogwifhat (WIF) was recorded at $0.3720. If the pattern trend continues, then the price of WIF might reach the resistance levels of $1.323 and $2.697. If the trend reverses, then the price of WIF may fall to the support levels of $1.002 (breached) and $0.643.

WIF Price Prediction Forecasts $0.58 Breakout for Dogwifhat

In brief Pudgy Penguins characters are currently appearing on the outside of the Las Vegas Sphere. The activation follows the Dogwifhat meme coin community failing to accomplish the same earlier this year. The Pudgy Penguins campaign doesn't spotlight its crypto elements, which include NFTs and a meme coin. Pudgy Penguins will wrap the Las Vegas Sphere for Christmas after debuting on the glowing venue on Tuesday.

The crypto-native brand's recent announcement sent some traders into a meltdown, as the community behind Solana meme coin Dogwifhat (WIF) failed to advertise on the venue earlier this year despite raising $700,000 in an attempt to do so—funds the team later refunded to contributors.

A Sphere spokesperson previously told Decrypt that it would only accept crypto advertising from exchanges or in relation to Bitcoin. Despite this, the Dogwifhat backers announced in January that they were set to appear at the Las Vegas venue.

For that reason, a Sphere representative told Decrypt that they were “distressed” that the Dogwifhat team was using their name for “fraudulent purposes.”

So, how can Pudgy Penguins—a brand that started as an NFT profile picture collection, has created a Solana meme coin called PENGU, helped launch an Ethereum layer-2 network, and more—advertise on the Sphere?

“This activation celebrates specifically our physical products, like toys, animations, and merch. It has nothing to do with the crypto side of our business,” Vedant Mangaldas, director of strategy and comms at Pudgy Penguins, told Decrypt. “We fully realize Sphere’s guidelines on crypto-related things.”

Prior to Tuesday's rollout, a Sphere spokesperson confirmed to Decrypt that Pudgy Penguins would wrap the Sphere, and that its crypto policy has not changed, as this activation specifically relates to physical products.

This means that during the seven-day wrap, the Pudgy Penguins NFTs, the Pengu meme coin, or any other crypto-related ventures will not be mentioned on the Sphere. Instead, the exosphere animation focuses on the cartoon creatures that drive the brand, and briefly mentions the availability of merchandise.

Pudgy Penguins ventured into the world of physical products in 2023 and started being stocked in Walmart. As of February 2024, the Pudgy Toys line had racked up $10 million in sales, less than a year after the collection debuted. The brand has seen similar success with its social media content and library of GIFs, which have seen considerable reach without obvious crypto connections.

“We have 2 million followers on Instagram, and, you know, I would say 90% of them probably don't know that crypto exists. It celebrates that side of the spectrum,” Mangaldas explained. “When you get a billion views on GIFs, I would assume that a majority of them don't know that we're a crypto company. And I think that's the beauty of Pudgy Penguins.”

It was actually really easy, only took 3 minutes to set up.

— Pudgy Penguins (@pudgypenguins) December 13, 2025

Still, it wasn’t an easy path to wrapping the Sphere, despite a joking jab on social media at Dogwifhat Sphere organizer Ansem that it only took three minutes to set up.

Instead, a source familiar with the deal told Decrypt that conversations with the Sphere started in early 2024. Those discussions started to get serious this year as the Pudgy Penguins brand established itself more outside of crypto.

It then took months for animators to craft the content, which is now plastered on the exosphere of the towering venue and seen far and wide from around Las Vegas. A source familiar with the activation told Decrypt that Pudgy Penguins is hoping to produce a hugely viral moment from an animation that lasts just a minute.

Pudgy Penguins is expected to have paid up to $600,000 to wrap the Sphere for seven days, a source familiar with the matter told Decrypt. As cartoon penguins decorate the outside of the Sphere, the inside of the venue is hosting screenings of “The Wizard of Oz.”

The “risk-on” signal is back. You can see it everywhere, but nowhere is it louder than in the resurgence of the meme coin sector. As Bitcoin takes a breather after its recent rallies, capital is aggressively sliding further out on the risk curve, chasing high-beta returns in assets like Dogecoin (DOGE), Pepe (PEPE), and dogwifhat (WIF). We’ve seen this movie before: liquidity cycles from Bitcoin to Ethereum, then to altcoins, and finally to meme assets. It’s the classic signal of a maturing bull run where retail FOMO starts outrunning institutional accumulation.

But this cycle feels different. While the appetite for speculative assets is returning, sophisticated investors aren’t just buying “animal coins” blindly. The data points to a growing demand for infrastructure plays that can actually support the insane volume these tokens generate. The bottleneck? Bitcoin itself. It holds the liquidity ($1+ trillion of it), but it lacks the speed to host the vibrant DeFi and meme ecosystems thriving on Solana or Base.

That gap has created a massive vacuum in the market. Traders want the security of Bitcoin’s network but demand the snap-execution speed of Solana. Naturally, capital is flowing toward solutions that bridge this gap—moving away from pure speculation toward utility-driven protocols. Leading this infrastructural shift is Bitcoin Hyper, a protocol built to finally bring high-performance execution to the Bitcoin network.

Bitcoin Hyper Integrates SVM to Solve Bitcoin’s Liquidity Trap While the hunt for the best meme coins dominates headlines, the real problem has been staring us in the face: Bitcoin can’t participate in the “degen economy.” Its base layer is secure, sure—but it’s also notoriously slow and expensive. That makes it unsuitable for the high-velocity trading required by meme coin markets and DeFi apps. Bitcoin Hyper addresses this by deploying the first-ever Bitcoin Layer 2 powered by the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM).

Why does this architecture matter? Simple: it fundamentally changes the value proposition of Bitcoin assets. By integrating the SVM, Bitcoin Hyper allows for sub-second transaction finality and negligible fees, effectively porting Solana’s user experience over to Bitcoin’s massive capital base. For developers, this means the ability to build sophisticated dApps, swap platforms, and meme coin launchpads using Rust, all while anchoring state to Bitcoin’s L1 for settlement.

The implications here are huge. Right now, billions in Bitcoin capital remain dormant because holders lack viable yield-generating opportunities or fast trading venues native to the ecosystem. By unlocking this liquidity through a decentralized canonical bridge, Bitcoin Hyper positions itself not just as another token, but as the transactional engine for the next wave of Bitcoin-native assets. With a modular design separating execution (SVM) from settlement (Bitcoin L1), the old distinction between “store of value” and “medium of exchange” is starting to look obsolete.

Whales Accumulate $HYPER as Presale Breaches $31 Million Smart money positioning is often the best leading indicator we have, and on-chain metrics for Bitcoin Hyper suggest high-conviction accumulation is already underway. According to the official presale page, the project has successfully raised $31,228,293.92, a figure that underscores significant institutional interest before the token even hits public exchanges. With the token currently priced at $0.0136751, early entrants are positioning themselves before the protocol fully deploys its mainnet capabilities.

Digging into the granular data, we see specific high-net-worth behavior. Etherscan records show that two whale wallets have scooped up $116K in recent transactions. The heavy hitter? A single transaction of $63K executed on Jan 15, 2026. This type of accumulation during a presale typically signals that large-scale investors are hedging against the volatility of standard meme coins by betting on the infrastructure that will likely host them.

It’s not just about raw capital inflows, though. Retention mechanics play a huge role. Bitcoin Hyper offers high APY opportunities with immediate staking available post-TGE (Token Generation Event). Plus, the inclusion of a 7-day vesting period for presale stakers—and rewards for governance participation—aligns incentives properly. This reduces the likelihood of the immediate “dump” often seen in lower-quality projects. For investors navigating the return of risk appetite, Bitcoin Hyper represents a leveraged bet on the convergence of Bitcoin security and Solana speed.

Key Takeaways Risk-On Shift: Global liquidity is rotating from Bitcoin into high-beta sectors, waking up the meme coin market. Infrastructure Focus: Smart money is prioritizing Layer 2 protocols that enable high-frequency trading on secure networks rather than just buying speculative tokens. Best of Both Worlds: Bitcoin Hyper uses the Solana Virtual Machine (SVM) to bring high-speed smart contracts to the Bitcoin ecosystem. Institutional Interest: Significant whale activity and over $31 million raised in presale suggest strong confidence in Bitcoin L2 solutions.

PANews reported on March 6 that, according to an official announcement, based on the recent review, Binance will add watch tags to more tokens and remove the watch tags and seed tags of the corresponding tokens on March 6, 2026.

The following tokens have been added to the watch list: Contentos (COS), Dego Finance (DEGO), Ampleforth Governance Token (FORTH), FUNToken (FUN), Hooked Protocol (HOOK), Loopring (LRC), MOBOX (MBOX), Orchid (OXT), and dogwifhat (WIF). The token whose watchlist tag has been removed is Flow (FLOW). The following tokens have had their seed tags removed from the leaderboard: Ondo (ONDO) and Virtuals Protocol (VIRTUAL).

The memecoin sector rebounded by more than 4% as volume jumped by 51% in line with the broader crypto market. Top-cap memecoins spearheaded the rally, with dogwifhat [WIF] surging by 12%, making it one of the top ten gainers in the past 24 hours.

Other memecoins that recorded similar or more gains were Pepe [PEPE], Fartcoin [FARTCOIN], and SPX6900 [SPX]. This indicated a broader recovery, but what really drove WIF’s price?

Is leverage behind WIF’s daily surge? The daily percentage surge was equal to the weekly gains. The numbers were improving as the narrative to classify memecoins as “digital collectibles” rather than securities by the SEC and CFTC gained pace.

The derivatives data showed that the Long/Short Ratio was buyer-dominated, as the readings were above 1. This showed traders were buying more than selling, with those on Binance leading with 1.3359, followed by OKX at 1.14.

For Top Traders, the ratio for Accounts was 1.6151, while the ratio for Positions was 1.4804, indicating that smart money, along with retail traders, was buying the dogwifhat meme coin.

Source: CoinGlass Additionally, the Open Interest (OI), Funding Rates, and volume were increasing. The OI jumped to $105 million, more than the volume, which was at $75 million.

The OI-Weighted Funding Rate was green over the past two days with a reading of 0.0051%. This indicated the market’s leverage was still adjusting, with buyers adding more risk.

Source: CoinGlass Such a reading suggested that leverage could be behind the daily surge in price alongside a bullish market structure.

WIF facing resistance at a previous high On the charts, WIF was rising as it respected an ascending trendline that had held the price since the 11th of March. This was after a lower high that was at $0.223, the price target if WIF surpasses the $0.20 zone.

Right now, WIF bulls are battling to break past $0.20, with some seemingly taking profits. This is evident as Cumulative Volume Delta (CVD) has shifted to red.

The net token change dropped from a high of 5.63 million WIF tokens bought to now about 1.17 million tokens being sold.

Interestingly, the Money Flow Index (MFI) was still indicating capital was flowing into the memecoin, though momentum had cooled off. The MFI reading was at 61.

Source: WIF/USDT on TradingView With that in mind, only staying above the $0.20 zone could put WIF on a path toward $0.223. Reclaiming the $0.223-$0.230 zone would shift the market structure on the daily chart to bullish.

Final Summary dogwifhat jumps 12% as leverage on longs, volume, OI and Funding Rates jump.  WIF is moving towards $0.23, but this can only happen if it stays above $0.20. 

Recently, the altcoin market has been performing fairly well, with memecoins among the top gainers. For instance, dogwifhat [WIF] rose by more than 26% in the past 24 hours, coming in third among the top 200 coins by market cap.

On that note, what was really behind this meteoric rise of the memecoin, and can the breakout be sustained?

Why is WIF up today? The expansion into the largest crypto exchange in the Asian market mainly drove the surge in the price of WIF.

According to a post by Upbit Korea, they will support WIF trading on pairs that include KRW, BTC and USDT. This led to high speculative trading, with the memecoin rising over 44% at the time of listing.

Source: X The daily trading volume of WIF jumped over 300%, reaching $220 million. This affirmed the high trading activity, which further reflected the on-chain activities of whales.

As per Solscan, whales have been accumulating WIF immensely, with orders between $100K and $1 million dominating. Over 300 holders were added after the Upbit listing.

For whales buying WIF worth between $1 million and $10 million, more than seven transactions were made in a day.

Source: Solscan Furthermore, the token TVL increased from $5.225 million to $5.829 million.

From the data, it was quite evident that capital was flowing into the memecoin. These figures explained why WIF was pumping, but can these whales keep the memecoin strong?

Looking at the price action of WIF, the memecoin broke above April’s high of $0.225. This was a key resistance level.

Hence, it indicated a break of structure on the 2-hour timeframe after two weeks of consolidation between $0.175 and $0.200.

Momentum indicators are also showing strength in the uptrend, even though it was retracing. The On-Balance Volume (OBV) rose from -600 million to -500 million. These figures indicated a reduction in sell orders.

However, after the price hit $0.28, sellers returned and pushed back. Since then, the gains have been reduced from 44% to 26%, a sign of profit-taking.

Key NotesAevo is transitioning to EigenDA for improved data processing and Ethereum integration.The upgrade ensures immediate data updates, reducing execution delays in trades.Aevo’s use of EigenDA guarantees reserved bandwidth and avoids network congestion. Aevo has announced a major upgrade by transitioning to EigenDA for its data availability layer, marking a significant step in improving the trading experience for users. Aevo is a derivatives L2 platform focused on options and perpetual contracts trading, and this change is set to make trading faster, cheaper, and more secure.

Since its inception, Aevo has supported modular blockchains, with Celestia serving as a key partner. The platform noted that, as it continued to grow, it became clear that closer integration with Ethereum’s security, lower operational costs, and faster data processing were essential. EigenDA, a solution that meets these needs perfectly, was selected. Aevo stated:

“From day one, we’ve believed in modular blockchains – Celestia was an incredible partner on that journey. However as we evolve, we need even tighter synergy with Ethereum’s security, lower costs, and near-instant data throughput. EigenDA checks all those boxes.”

How EigenDA Enhances Aevo’s Data Processing and Security The switch to EigenDA will result in immediate data updates, enhancing the speed of trades and reducing execution delays. The technology also integrates Ethereum’s restaking, offering top-tier security and trust for every transaction. With 15 MB/s throughput, the new system ensures swift order processing and a seamless trading experience, while lower operational costs mean tighter spreads and better pricing.

The core benefits of EigenDA include high data throughput, blazing speed, cost efficiency, Ethereum-grade security, and a simplified system architecture that eliminates unnecessary components. These features are designed to create a more efficient, scalable platform for the future of high-performance trading.

EigenDA, a data availability store, also provided more insight into the transition, stating that being on it gives Aevo several exclusive advantages. The platform can implement custom quorums, allowing for potential future AEVO staking to enhance data availability and security. It also ensures reserved bandwidth, guaranteeing no congestion, which ensures smooth operation.

Aevo’s Future-Proofing with EigenDA Integration Built by EigenLabs, EigenDA described Aevo as specifically designed for Ethereum traders, with $95 billion in cumulative trading volume since launch. It’s supported by Binance Labs, Coinbase Ventures, Dragonfly Capital, and Paradigm. The platform also features enshrined oracle protection. EigenDA noted that while it handles data availability, Aevo can focus on enhancing decentralized finance (DeFi).

EigenDA added that Aevo is built to last with EigenDA. As a result, traders using the platform won’t experience high transaction fees, as the cost per trade is extremely low. The platform also doesn’t need to worry about high data costs, as it only costs pennies per megabyte. EigenDA wrote:

“Future-proofed on EigenDA. Traders don’t have to worry about transaction costs for pennies per trade. Aevo doesn’t have to worry about high throughput DA with pennies per MB. All on Ethereum.”

Transitioning to EigenDA positions Aevo as a leader in on-chain derivatives trading, focusing on both current and future scalability. The platform is committed to delivering the fastest, most secure, and most cost-efficient trading experience.

3 Altcoins That Reached All-Time Low Today — February 25

Aevo, a decentralized derivatives exchange built on a custom Ethereum layer 2, has introduced “Aevo Degen,” a new product offering up to 1000x leverage on tokenized stocks.

The product, which went live on July 8, currently supports Coinbase (COIN), Robinhood (HOOD), MicroStrategy (MSTR), and Circle (CRCL), with more stocks expected to be added. Trades are only available during U.S. stock market hours, and all positions are automatically closed at the end of each trading day.

With a small amount of capital, users can place large directional bets thanks to the product’s design for short-term, high-risk trading. The 1000x leverage enables a trader to control a $100,000 position using just $100. However, on that scale, a single 0.1% move in the wrong direction can wipe out the entire position.

Aevo (AEVO) uses an off-chain order book for fast execution, while trade settlement takes place on-chain using its layer 2 rollup. This setup keeps trading quick and costs low while maintaining transparency and user custody. 

Aevo’s platform does not charge standard trading fees for Aevo Degen. Instead, traders only pay if they make a profit, in which case a portion of their gains goes to the platform. This fee model is designed to support active traders and speculators, who might be sensitive to frequent trading costs.

The platform uses tokenized stock derivatives instead of actual shares. These tokens don’t represent direct ownership, but they use oracles to track actual stock prices. This approach helps keep the system flexible, allowing users to trade stocks within the crypto ecosystem without needing a traditional brokerage.

The launch of Aevo Degen adds to a growing list of efforts to bring traditional financial products into decentralized platforms. It also raises questions around risk and regulation, especially with such high leverage involved.

While Aevo says it has built a strong technical infrastructure, users must still manage risk carefully. Large swings in price can result in fast and heavy losses.
