The objective of MoeLive is to provide a novel sort of entertainment experience that utilizes parts of K-pop culture in conjunction with Japanese anime culture. The platform will utilize generative artificial intelligence technology to bring social simulation experiences with virtual characters into the real world. Vivident, a startup that is developing artificial intelligence-powered character IP technology, has received initial investment in the amount of $1.5 million from investors across South Korea, Japan, the United States of America, and Hong Kong. Hashed, Mashup Ventures, TheVentures, Modhaus (Korea), and Sfermion (US) were among the leading venture capital firms that participated in the round. Additionally, the largest venture capital firm in Japan, CVC Z Venture Capital, Decima Fund, and the Titan Fund of CMCC Global, which is based in Hong Kong, supported the round. A platform for alternate reality is currently being developed by Vivident. This platform will utilize generative artificial intelligence technology to bring social simulation experiences with virtual characters into the real world. The platform that it uses, known as MoeLive, gives users the ability to not only communicate with artificial intelligence characters but also take part in their activities and growth, as well as create and manage their very own AI characters. With extensive experience from leading gaming and entertainment technology companies such as Krafton, Hyperconnect, Neosapience, Supertone, and UNOPND, the founding team of the company, which was established in May 2024, brings a wealth of knowledge within the industry. Using generative artificial intelligence technology, the firm is developing MoeLive, a platform that allows for community engagement and creates IPs in the style of anime characters. The objective of MoeLive is to provide a novel sort of entertainment experience that utilizes parts of K-pop culture in conjunction with Japanese anime culture. A number of different artificial intelligence technologies are included into the platform, which enables fan communities to actively engage in the creation and development of the characters that are created by the platform. Within the first half of the year 2025, Vivident intends to deploy a test service that will have direct chat interactions with characters. Due to the fact that it relies on human performers to portray virtual avatars, the virtual character industry now faces a number of difficulties. Vivident is using artificial intelligence technology to facilitate the creation of completely autonomous virtual characters in order to circumvent these limitations and allow the development of new business models. The strategy used by the business goes beyond the usage of simple chat interfaces, including real-time livestreaming capabilities and multi-user involvement systems in order to develop a new paradigm in artificial intelligence celebrity entertainment. Jonathan Cheung, Principal at Titan Fund stated: Kim added: The mission of Vivident is to create virtual entertainment of the future generation, and GD Kim, the founder and CEO of Vivident, brings considerable expertise in the gaming, technology, and web3 sectors to the table. Kim started his work with Bain & Company after getting his B.A. in International Studies from Johns Hopkins University. Building a solid basis in corporate strategy and analysis, he worked as a consultant for Bain & Company, where he specialized in technologies, content, and due diligence projects. Most recently, Kim served over two years as the Chief Operating Officer of UNOPND, Hashed’s venture studio. Notable web3-integrated content initiatives, such as Modhaus’ tripleS and Ndus Interactive’s Xociety, were successfully incubated by him during his stay. He was the driving force behind the incubation of these projects. His complete position encompassed aiding founders from business creation to finance, product development strategies, and overall corporate management. Key Features of MoeLive: Advanced AI Character Creation: An advanced artificial intelligence character creation system that uses generative artificial intelligence to create one-of-a-kind anime-style characters with distinct personalities. Interactive Growth System: It allows fans to participate in character development through a variety of activities and voting capabilities.

Fraction AI, the pioneering decentralized intelligence protocol, made the announcement today that its testnet v0.1 has been launched. Following the completion of a successful closed beta, during which users generated more than 300,000 high-quality data sessions, the testnet represents the next milestone in Fraction AI’s goal to allow decentralized AI agents to grow via competition and collaboration. Fraction AI is redefining data labeling by combining human insights with those of artificial intelligence agents. Humans are able to guide artificial intelligence agents through labeling tasks using this approach, which allows for higher accuracy while maintaining the efficiency of automation. Fraction AI is able to generate high-quality training data by utilizing a framework that is both competitive and real-time. Additionally, it is able to reward participants, encourage innovation, and advance the ecosystem of artificial intelligence. Through the launch of testnet v0.1, Fraction AI is making its proven intelligence framework available to a more extensive user base. It is anticipated that Testnet v0.1 will serve as the gateway to the Fraction AI ecosystem. Users have the ability to link their wallets, create artificial intelligence agents by using natural language, and take part in an intelligence network that has already proved its capacity to bring about transformation. Decentralized artificial intelligence will have a future that is shaped by the agents that users create, the Fractals that they earn, and the contributions that they make. Fraction AI’s ecosystem is constantly advancing the state of intelligence. Inspired by the principles of evolution that may be seen in nature, the protocol enables artificial intelligence agents to compete with one another and work together to generate important, high-quality data across a permissionless network. The system provides continuous optimization by using economic incentives, which helps to cultivate an environment in which the agents with the highest levels of performance may flourish and contribute to the advancement of collective intelligence. Everyone is able to develop artificial intelligence agents by writing in English; there is no need to know how to code. The emphasis is on simplicity and accessibility. It is via competition that these agents are able to improve their skills in a variety of sectors, including programming, marketing, law, and entertainment. This decentralized network helps to develop an intelligence economy that is always evolving. Fraction AI employs judge LLMs who stake FRAC tokens for trustless review in order to accomplish the goal of maintaining quality. Staking ETH and LSTs allows users to earn rewards while also contributing to the ecosystem. Ether L2s, Near, Solana, and other cryptocurrencies are supported by the protocol. During the course of their evolution, agents accumulate XP via data sessions, which enables them to access features such as premium tiers, token launches, and persistent existence in TEE settings. Additionally, Fractals, which are earned by users, are used to quantify influence and decide FRAC token allocations during the mainnet launch. XP is used to fuel agent autonomy.

The event will give a total prize pool of 10,000,000 $AIGT tokens, or 1.4% of its entire token supply. With 8,000,000 $AIGT, the worker rewards pool is the biggest, followed by the community questing rewards pool with 2,000,000 $AIGT. Axlflops, a leading AI computing network, has announced the launch of its inaugural community rewards program and its Token Generation Event (TGE). The event will give a total prize pool of 10,000,000 $AIGT tokens, or 1.4% of its entire token supply. The rewards program, which will begin on January 22 and continue until March 22, intends to encourage GPU providers and community members to engage in the development of a more democratized computing infrastructure. Decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) Axlflops is dedicated to democratizing Al computing and balancing supply and demand. The network uses cutting-edge algorithms to provide everyone flexible, affordable, and accessible computing power. Two separate reward pools will be part of the initiative: one would give worker rewards for GPU providers, while the other will be a community questing reward for regular users. With 8,000,000 $AIGT, the worker rewards pool is the biggest, followed by the community questing rewards pool with 2,000,000 $AIGT. To increase their earning potential, users may engage in both at the same time. GPU providers may commit to their desired participation period and join the decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) without staking requirements for the first phase, which ends on March 31. Computing Resource Contributions and Hardware Performance Ratings are used to determine rewards, and a tiered distribution structure will result in uptime bonuses, weekly rewards, and welcome bonuses. The official Axlflops website allows GPU providers to track and claim rewards. The Galxe and Taskon platforms feature the community quest component, which provides rewards for a range of social media engagement activities and platform interaction. Common tasks include interacting with the official website, taking part in community events, and following Axlflops on social media. After the promotion ends on March 22, the final reward distributions for both pools will occur, with daily GPU mining payouts still being given out in accordance with Axlflops’ usual process. Competitors that just concentrate on decentralized AI computing contrast with Axlflops’ unique strategy for democratizing AI computing resources. Axlflops aims to provide a welcoming environment where private and public clouds coexist in the same partner network by integrating both independent GPU suppliers and well-known cloud services. A more cooperative ecosystem is also produced by the network’s novel dual staking mechanism, which mandates that GPU providers stake 95% and token holders stake 5%. This is enhanced by user-friendly features like a shorter 7-day unstaking period, competitive service fees of just 0.2%, and instant daily reward withdrawals. In contrast, Axlflops’ advanced instance grading system assesses not just GPU performance but also the hardware ecosystem as a whole, encompassing CPU, RAM, storage, and network capabilities, guaranteeing precise performance evaluation and equitable reward distribution. Axlflops’ trial program invites AI developers, data scientists, businesses, and everyone else that needs computing resources to take use of what the network has to offer.
 
$1.28 billion liquidated, impacting over 386,000 traders. Rumors persist about a U.S. Bitcoin Strategic Reserve under Trump. The cryptocurrency market experienced heightened volatility as Donald Trump was inaugurated as the 47th U.S. President. His speech, which omitted any mention of bitcoin or crypto policies, triggered widespread sell-offs. According to Coinglass, total liquidations surged to $1.28 billion, affecting over 386,000 traders. Long positions bore the brunt of the sell-off, with $816 million liquidated as market optimism faded. Short positions also saw a significant impact, with $307 million liquidated amid market fluctuations. Key trading volumes included $2.56 million in BTC, $1.98 million in ETH, and $1.08 million in Trump’s $TRUMP memecoin. Altcoins Slide Amid Crypto Market Uncertainty Bitcoin demonstrated relative stability, dropping 1% to $102,219, while altcoins faced sharper declines. Solana plummeted from $289 to $241, driven by concerns over infrastructure strain linked to the $TRUMP memecoin frenzy. Cardano also dipped 5% during the market turmoil. The $TRUMP memecoin, which previously surged, lost 22% of its value to trade at $36.31. This decline coincided with the rise of competing tokens, such as Melania Trump’s $MELANIA, which skyrocketed by 12,000% within 24 hours. The intense competition between these tokens added to the market’s instability. Bitcoin’s current trading metrics highlight the market’s uncertainty. BTC is priced at $104,368.97, reflecting a 2.48% daily drop. Its market cap stands at $2.06 trillion, with a 24-hour trading volume of $103.37 billion. Bitcoin’s circulating supply is 19.81 million, nearing its maximum cap of 21 million. Despite the absence of crypto in Trump’s speech, speculation about a U.S. Bitcoin Strategic Reserve (SBR) persists. Polymarket suggests there is a 40% chance of an SBR being announced during Trump’s first 100 days. Such a move could significantly impact the crypto market. Analysts warn that the market could remain volatile, mirroring trends observed during Trump’s previous presidency. With ongoing speculation and heightened trading activity, traders should prepare for further turbulence. The cryptocurrency market continues to navigate uncertain waters as Trump’s administration begins.
 
AI projects are rapidly taking over the crypto industry, prompting astute investors to shift their focus to capitalize on emerging opportunities. Recently, a notable SHIB whale made headlines by investing a staggering $750k in a viral AI presale. With experts forecasting that the AI altcoin could surpass numerous tokens this year, a pressing question emerges: Can it dethrone the memecoin giant, Dogwifhat? Find the full details below! Shiba Inu (SHIB) Whales Jump Ship To AI Altcoins Shiba Inu is not left out in the current broad crypto market uptrend. The SHIB token price has risen 2.2% over the past month, accompanied by a notable 70% increase in trading volumes Despite experiencing significant fluctuations last year, Shiba Inu (SHIB) managed to outperform 76% of the top crypto assets, largely due to its token burns. However, the meme coin is still trading 73% from its ATH—a huge gap from its trading price of $0.00002414. Majority of the Shiba Inu SHIB investors are currently at a loss since the token is still trading below their purchase price. This year, investors, especially whales, are jumping ship from Shiba Inu (SHIB) and diversifying with leading AI tokens like IntelMarkets. Dogwifhat: WIF Poised For Bullish Breakout Amid Golden Cross Pattern Formation Dogwifhat didn’t start the new year on a bullish trend. However, WIF has surged over 10% in the last 7 days. This comes after its 37% decline during the recent broad market downturn which saw Dogwifhat struggling below $1.70. Nevertheless, the sixth-largest meme coin remains a significant player in the market. The current Dogwifhat price range is defined by a resistance at $1.97 and a support at $1.64. WIF was trading at the $1.84 level on the intraday price chart at the press time. Technical indicators reveal that WIF is forming a golden cross pattern on its trading charts. This is a bullish signal that would likely align with the ongoing uptrend, increasing Dogwifhat’s likelihood of a breakout, which analysts predict would be as high as 230%. INTL Set To Outperform Top Rivals With A Potential 30,000 Surge This Year IntelMarkets has transformed the crypto industry, integrating AI in blockchain technology to offer users a seamless decentralized trading experience. This platform features a range of advanced trading tools and resources including ready-to-use agents that have been rigorously tested and optimized for performance.

This system is designed to provide significant monthly income alongside capital gains through our advanced trading bot. But that’s not all! IntelMarkets also empowers investors with AI-driven insights and automated strategies, unlocking new possibilities for alpha generation. As investors seek access to IntelMarkets’ innovative features, the presale momentum is rapidly increasing. With tokens currently available for $0.08 each in stage 9 of the presale, analysts forecast a remarkable 30,000% rally for the token upon launch. This surge is expected to position INTL ahead of top competitors like WIF this year. Notably, a Shiba Inu (SHIB) has already secured his position with a $750k investment in the presale.

Bitcoin is showing no signs of slowing down, and why would it? As Donald Trump, who is now well-known for his crypto-friendly attitude, officially joins the office of the US President, the crypto world is expecting a lot of pro-crypto administrative changes and executive government orders to be passed in the coming days. The latest all-time Bitcoin ($BTC) high of $109K is only expected to be the beginning of the next crypto bull run, seeing as World Liberty Financial ($WLFI), a Donald Trump-backed decentralized platform, recently purchased a whopping 14,403 $ETH worth a total of 48M $USDC. The sun is shining, and it’s time to make hay if you’re a crypto investor. With that in mind, here are the 5 best cryptos to invest in to set yourself up for some amazing gains in 2025. 1. Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) – Overall Best Meme Coin to Ride the Crypto Wave Wall Street Pepe ($WEPE) has been one of the hottest crypto presales of all time, surging past $54M in funding in just around a month’s time. $WEPE’s OG Pepe appeal, combined with a one-of-a-kind promise to offer the same financial opportunities to retail traders and help them break free from the clutches of crypto whales, has been its biggest strength. If you wish to join the Frog Army and benefit from game-changing market insights, trading strategies, and a vibrant community of like-minded crypto traders, all you have to do is head over to the official Wall Street Pepe website and buy $WEPE for just $0.0003665 per token. It’s worth noting, however, that Wall Street Pepe’s presale ends in less than 26 days from now, so interested investors should hurry up. 2. Solaxy ($SOLX) – Solana’s Revolutionary Layer-2 Solution Solaxy ($SOLX) aims to combine the benefits of Ethereum and Solana to offer crypto folks a new and improved way of dealing with these blockchains. Primarily, it set out to eliminate issues like failed transactions, network congestion, and inability to scale that have peppered the Solana network for quite some time now. With over $12.8M raised in its ongoing presale and the demand for Solana’s infrastructure on the rise, Solaxy is looking like a strong contender to be the next 100x meme coin. The current price of $0.001608 per token offers an attractive entry point for early adopters, who will also be able to benefit from $SOLX’s 292% staking rewards. 3. MIND of Pepe ($MIND) – Harness the Power of AI for Crypto Profitability MIND of Pepe ($MIND) is not too dissimilar from $WEPE, seeing as it, too, aims to offer profitable crypto investment advice to token holders. However, how $MIND achieves this is unique. $MIND is, simply put, an AI agent with a digital personality of its own that engages with people, including influencers, on platforms like X, analyzing what’s being said, forming its unique opinions, and then using all that to come up with trading ideas. You can purchase $MIND tokens for $0.0031635 each, with the presale having already raised close to $3M so far. Since it’s a relatively new presale, it’s also offering very attractive staking rewards of 738%. 4. Official Trump ($TRUMP) – Meme Coin Celebrating Trump’s Presidential Victory Donald Trump launched his own meme coin on 17 January, and it took Wall Street by storm. Soon after launch, it hit a market cap of $15B, making it the third-largest cryptocurrency across all blockchains in terms of market capitalization in virtually no time at all. After the initial frenzy, the price has cooled off from the highs of $75. You can now get $TRUMP at around $40. As Trump has made very clear, the US government is set to introduce several pro-crypto legislations. Ever since he won the elections, the crypto market has been in a massive bull run, as Bitcoin reached all-time highs, and there are at least 8 US states proposing a Bitcoin reserve. All this is expected to ultimately benefit $TRUMP’s price as it’s a direct reflection of Trump’s popularity. Right now, only 25% of the token supply has been made available for trading. This means the developers intend to control the demand to save investors from price shocks. 5. American Coin ($USA) – Patriotic Meme Coin Joins the Frenzy Imbibing the same patriotic spirit of $TRUMP, $USA is another meme coin gaining significant traction. The coin had been sideways for quite some time before it made a massive 1,043% price jump between January 16 and 25. The price moved from a low of $0.000002953 to $0.000033761. Currently, you can get 1 $USA for $0.000013000, and the coin has a market cap of $81.67M at the time of writing. The coin rides on the spirit of $MAGA (Make America Great Again). With the shift in political dynamics in the country, leaders like Trump and Elon look to improve the economic, social, and international reputation of the US. Every positive government move is expected to benefit $USA, and it may be a good coin to hold on to for the next 3–4 years. Trending Markets Can Offer Easy Opportunities, but Exercise Caution With $BTC and $ETH trending, the crypto market has been nicely set up for a steady move upwards. However, even the best crypto investment opportunities, such as the 5 coins above, need to be handled with care and precision. Also, none of the above is a substitute for your own due diligence, nor is it financial advice, and you mustn’t forget to do your own research before investing.
 
XRP is currently trading around the $3.10 level after a weekend marked by significant volatility and a lackluster market response to President Donald Trump’s inauguration day. Hopes had been high among crypto investors that the new U.S. President would highlight pro-crypto policies in his opening speech. However, the absence of any mention of cryptocurrencies triggered short-term selling pressure, causing a dip in XRP’s price. Despite the initial disappointment, key on-chain metrics from Santiment paint a more optimistic picture for XRP. Data reveals that whales—large holders of XRP—bought over 100 million tokens in the past 48 hours. This significant accumulation suggests that big players remain confident in XRP’s long-term potential, even amid temporary market uncertainty. The buying spree by whales comes at a crucial time, as XRP tests key support levels near $3.10. With strong on-chain activity and institutional interest, the cryptocurrency appears to be building a foundation for a potential recovery. Investors are now closely watching for signs of renewed momentum as the market digests recent events. While the short-term outlook remains cautious, XRP’s resilience and the growing confidence of major players could set the stage for a rebound in the coming days. XRP Showing Strength XRP has broken through critical levels, reaching new all-time highs last Thursday, marking its highest price since January 2018. This milestone has reignited bullish sentiment among investors, with many confident that XRP will continue trending upward despite the market’s ongoing volatility. As one of the top-performing assets in the current cycle, XRP’s resilience and upward trajectory are capturing the attention of both retail and institutional investors. The market remains optimistic about XRP’s short-term and long-term prospects, fueled by strong technical and fundamental signals. Renowned analyst Ali Martinez recently highlighted key data from Santiment, revealing significant whale activity. The data shows whales have accumulated over 100 million XRP in the past 48 hours, indicating strong ongoing accumulation. This substantial buying activity suggests that major players are preparing for further upside, reinforcing confidence in XRP’s potential for sustained growth. Meanwhile, market participants eagerly await an announcement from President Donald Trump that could inject renewed optimism into the crypto space. With the final phase of the bull run underway, a pro-crypto statement could serve as a powerful catalyst to keep the broader market trending upward. As XRP consolidates near its new highs, its ability to maintain bullish momentum will be crucial. Investors are closely watching for signs of sustained strength, with the expectation that XRP will lead the market into new territory. If the bullish trends continue, XRP is well-positioned to remain a standout performer in the ongoing crypto rally. Price Action: Key Levels To Watch XRP is currently trading at $3.09, following a period of heightened volatility and market uncertainty. Despite recent fluctuations, the cryptocurrency is showing signs of strength as it prepares for its next move upward. Breaking last year’s high of $2.90 was a pivotal moment for XRP, signaling renewed bullish momentum. After reaching a new all-time high (ATH) of $3.40, XRP successfully retested the previous high as support, a positive indicator for its short-term trajectory. If bulls can maintain control and hold above the $2.90-$3.00 support zone, XRP appears poised for a bullish rally. This consolidation above critical levels is building a strong foundation for further gains, and a decisive push above the $3.40 ATH could lead to a significant breakout. Market sentiment remains optimistic as XRP demonstrates resilience and bullish technicals. Investors are closely monitoring the price action, with many expecting a surge if key support levels hold. The potential for another rally puts XRP in the spotlight, as it aims to continue leading the market upward. With the broader crypto market heating up, XRP’s performance in the coming days will be crucial in determining whether it can sustain its bullish trajectory and reach new highs.

January 2025 is a bullish month in the crypto industry where major turning events such as the inauguration of the new president of the U.S. are on the way, who is pro-crypto, and top analysts have identified four tokens that do have the potential to surge this are Rexas Finance (RXS), XRP, Cardano, and Tron. Of the four, one stands out, which is Rexas Finance (RXS), with its focus on real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and its jaw-dropping presale, which has a lot of demand from investors. Currently, it is in presale stage 11, where one token is priced at $0.175. Rexas Finance: Revolutionizing Investment with Real-World Assets—RXS Presale Hits $36.38M, Analysts Predict 3520% ROI! With only $4,619,867 left to raise from a $41,000,000 target, RXS is currently in presale Stage 11, where it is presently priced at $0.175 and has already raised $36,381,133. This marks a tremendous achievement for the RXS token, which is gaining momentum and has already sold 398,604,189 tokens from a total supply of 425,000,000. RXS is a hot topic at the moment, and the momentum behind the token is already recognizable, with analysts expecting some pretty hefty price movements for this token in the near future. Rexas Finance stands apart from other cryptocurrencies that only focus on digital assets as it focuses on real-world assets, and analysts predict a 3520% ROI in RXS. XRP Eyes a Breakout in January: Analysts Project 233% ROI as Regulatory Winds Shift in Favor of Ripple! XRP is another token to consider this January. It is currently priced at $2.40, up 10.31% in the last week. Analysts observe that XRP has been building sideways off of $1.97 and is accumulating there, signaling a possible breakout soon. According to projections, XRP could hit $8, which would be an attractive 233% return on investment. Recent developments regarding XRP’s regulatory environment add to the optimism around this cryptocurrency. XRP has better odds for ETF approval since positive changes within the U.S. SEC leadership have increased the odds from 60% to 70%. With that, XRP is ready for significant institutional support. Moreover, EU regulations favoring the launch of Ripple’s USD-backed stablecoin RLUSD have made XRP the third largest cryptocurrency. Cardano (ADA) Surges 20%: Analysts Forecast 200% Gain, Targeting $3! Another token making waves in the market this January is Cardano (ADA). ADA is currently trading at $1.07, up over 20.38% over the last week. Cardano’s future is bright, according to analysts, who expect it to hit $3, which would imply a 200% gain if the predictions are correct. Tron (TRX) Set for Potential 200% Gain: Analysts Predict $0.40 Target Amid Recent Momentum Another cryptocurrency investors should watch this month is Tron (TRX). Tron currently trades at $0.2665, up 2.59% from the past week; experts suggest that it will reach its all-time high of $0.40 before making further movements, which could give a 200% return on investment. Conclusion With Rexas Finance (RXS), XRP, Cardano, and Tron appearing on the list of the top analysts, Rexas Finance stands out on the rest, with the analyst predicting a 3520%ROI in RXS. This is due to its focus on RWAs and its explosive presale, where it is selling out the presale stage in a very short period.

The ongoing TRUMP memecoin frenzy has sparked the creation of hundreds of tokens inspired by the US president and his family. A recent report revealed malicious tokens and dApps using Donald Trump references skyrocketed since Friday, targeting unsuspected investors and non-crypto people. Trump-Themed Scams Skyrocket Over the weekend, US President Donald Trump surprised the crypto industry by launching his official memecoin, TRUMP. The token received heavy criticism, with several crypto investors calling the President’s memecoin venture a “big red flag.” Many community members initially suspected the token was a hacking scam, while others expressed reservations about TRUMP’s tokenomics. Regardless of the doubts, the memecoin eclipsed the market, skyrocketing to $30 in a few hours and hitting an all-time high (ATH) of $75 a day later. Web3 security platform Blockaid shared that TRUMP’s successful launch also ignited a “rapid proliferation of malicious tokens, fake dApps, and scams using the Trump name and branding,” following the trend of scammers leveraging major news events in the crypto industry to target unsuspecting users. According to the report, tokens with the “Trump” name increased by 206% on the launch day. The report stated, “Many of these tokens used misleading branding to lure investors.” The chart shows that since late December, the number of new malicious tokens with the word “Trump” has hovered between 2,000 and 3,000 daily. However, this number increased to 6,800 tokens deployed on Friday, double the usual 3,300 Trump-inspired tokens created daily. Additionally, the number of fake dApps deployed saw record rates over the weekend. The malicious applications are often used to “trick users into connecting their wallets, allowing scammers to drain funds.” Blockaid reports that impersonator dApps using President Trump’s name saw a 14x increase after the launch, with 91 malicious dApps deployed in 24 hours. Trump Memecoin Frenzy Continues The report highlighted that scammers didn’t stop at Trump-themed tokens. Memecoins with metadata referencing the Trump family, including Melania and Barron-inspired ones, surged by 592% over the weekend, “creating the illusion of an interconnected ecosystem.” It’s worth noting that US First Lady Melania Trump announced the launch of her official memecoin, MELANIA, on Sunday afternoon. The launch pushed the crypto market to a 6% correction, with Bitcoin (BTC) dropping below $100,000, and TRUMP declining 49% in an hour. On Inauguration Day, DexScreener’s main page showed a plethora of memecoins inspired by the Trump Family. Of the top 15 tokens, 11 were related to the presidential family, including the official TRUMP and MELANIA memecoins. Fake Donald Trump Jr, Ivanka, and Eric memecoins were also launched, alongside Trump-related figures like US Vice President JC Vance and Elon Musk. Despite the several Musk-themed tokens already existing, the recently launched memecoins used branding inspired by the official Trump tokens. Moreover, the Trump memecoin frenzy continued as the US President was sworn into office. A video shared on X shows that during Trump’s inauguration speech, community members created several new tokens themed after the speech. Users flooded the market with dozens of memecoins using phrases like “Make America respected again” or “America will be admired again” just seconds after the US President pronounced them, potentially attempting to lucre from the ongoing hype. As of this writing, the official TRUMP memecoin trades at $37.6, a 1.4% increase in the daily timeframe.
 
DOGE is trading at $0.3454, marking a loss of over 9%. Elon Musk’s ‘Doge to Mars’ comment fails to ignite a rally for the meme coin. The crypto market failed to turn green even a day after Donald Trump’s inauguration. The largest asset, Bitcoin, continues to stay at $102K. Particularly, the prominent meme coin, Dogecoin (DOGE), has seen a notable price drop of over 9%. The recent bullish price pattern of Dogecoin price has signalled a potential breakout. The crypto analysts had a promising prediction, forecasting the meme coin could reach new highs. After the U.S. election and Elon Musk’s endorsement, DOGE has notable price volatility. Elon Musk has triggered discussions in the market with his recent comment—“Doge to Mars”—during Donald Trump’s inauguration. Despite this, Dogecoin chose to trade on the downside. DOGE opened the day trading at $0.3824. Eventually, the meme coin bears took control and the price slipped toward a low of $0.3359. At the time of writing, the meme coin traded at $0.3454, with the market cap reaching $51 billion. Furthermore, the market observed a liquidation of $22.13 million worth of DOGE during this timeframe. It is crucial to note the daily trading volume of the meme coin resting at $7 billion. Will DOGE’s Decline Continue or Reverse? DOGE’s four-hour trading session showcases the downside correction. If the meme coin fails to hold $0.3386, the asset could fall toward the nearby $33 mark. The meme coin might fall steeper to its previous lows if strong selloffs resume. However, the emergence of bullish pressure will invalidate these losses. If the meme coin holds the current price, it could drive the price to $0.35. DOGE’s extended gains might trigger a further uptrend and propel the asset to jump toward the $0.3587 mark. The technical indicators of DOGE unveil the in-progress bearish momentum. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) line and the signal line are below the zero line. This indicates that the meme coin is in a downtrend, with selling pressure outweighing buying pressure. Moreover, the Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator, which estimates the capital flow, is found at -0.10. It suggests a negative money flow, signalling the weakness of the meme coin. In the meantime, DOGE’s daily trading volume has plunged by over 30.98%. The meme coin’s daily relative strength index (RSI) at 37.46 infers weak momentum and leans toward the bearish territory. Also, it has room to decline further before being considered oversold. Besides, DOGE’s daily frame reveals the short-term 9-day MA below the long-term 21-day MA.

After the early January slump, many cryptocurrencies have experienced strong rebounds reclaiming critical resistance levels. It’s always a good idea to keep an eye on the projects that recover the fastest, as this is typically a sign of a fundamentally strong price action that will translate into massive returns once the market enters its parabolic phase. Among these top gainers are Solana (SOL), Chainlink (LINK), and Stellar (XLM). However, a newcomer is also making rounds with its unique DeFi framework — Elluminex (ELX). Built on the Toncoin blockchain, Elluminex emerges as one of the most promising DeFi protocols in the space and could disrupt the entire industry while minting the next generation of crypto millionaires along the way. How Elluminex Unlocks TON’s Potential With a first-mover advantage, Elluminex could soon become one of the key players in the DeFi industry and propel the TON ecosystem to new heights. Its DEX platform is designed to empower users by offering a secure, intermediary-free environment through its non-custodial framework, which puts control in the hands of investors. Additionally, users will be able to enjoy complete privacy when operating the DEX, as no KYC is required to join. Elluminex employs a revolutionary cross-chain bridge that brings together isolated blockchains, allowing for seamless swaps between Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and many others. Simultaneously, the platform ensures near-instantaneous speed and significantly lower fees, while also reducing slippage, as liquidity is sourced from the various chains. The $ELX token plays a central role in the Elluminex ecosystem, powering all essential features like governance, and staking. Staking opportunities will provide passive income to holders of the $ELX token for up to 18% APY. This is also aligned with a deflationary mechanism that will continuously reduce the circulating supply and prime the token for explosive scarcity-driven growth. Donald Trump’s Solana-Based Meme Coin Propels SOL To New ATH Donald Trump’s $TRUMP meme coin, launched on the Solana blockchain, sending the crypto market into a frenzy and reaching a staggering $15 billion in valuation in less than a day. This funneled staggering amounts of revenue back into the Solana ecosystem, accelerating a surge toward a new peak of $294. Predictably, as traders booked profits, Solana (SOL) retraced, settling on a higher support level. At press time, Solana trades for $246 following an 8.7% intraday decrease. Despite this correction, Solana is still up by over 35% on the monthly time frame, indicating strong bullish momentum. Chainlink Consolidates After Reclaiming Key Resistance The Trump effect has extended to Chainlink as well as Trump’s crypto fund, World Liberty Financial made waves on social media with a $4.7 million purchase of $LINK tokens. This is more than double the amount that the fund purchased in December, indicating strong confidence in Chainlink’s future and its role in the DeFi realm. Chainlink is already hailed as an industry standard by professionals and the latest show of confidence came from none other than Ripple. Ripple integrated Chainlink’s bridging protocol and data feeds to expand the utility and strengthen the fundamentals of the newly launched RLUSD stablecoin. Chainlink currently trades at $25.90 with a 2.8% daily increase, bringing its total monthly gains to a noteworthy 46%. Stellar Slips 4% As It Enters Cool-Off Phase Stellar ended 2024 with a bang, raking in triple-digit gains and finding its place in the crypto top 20. At the time of writing, Stellar (XLM) is priced at $0.45 following a 4% daily drop, while the monthly time frame shows a 27% gain. Over the last 24 hours, the Stellar volume exploded by 70%, as enthusiasts rushed to scoop up the dip. CoinMarketCap data shows that over $1.65 billion worth of XLM has changed hands across trading platforms, suggesting growing confidence in Stellar’s performance in the coming months. Stellar’s macro price structure remains intact, and predictors are expecting a run toward the $1 mark, which represents a key psychological zone. Why Elluminex Could Become The Hottest New Entry Of 2025 Chainlink, Stellar, and Solana are undoubtedly sensible additions to any future-proof portfolio, however, Elluminex is on track to become the most asymmetrical play of the cycle. With its robust fundamentals and small-cap status, Elluminex is primed for explosive growth and the crypto community is taking notice, with hundreds of enthusiasts joining the viral $ELX presale. The $ELX supply is capped at 350 million tokens, 50% of which are on sale for a discounted price of only $0.06. Early buyers have already claimed nearly 5 million, raising more than $270,000 in record time. Want to “win” the bull run? Sleeping on $ELX is not an option!

The much-awaited day of Trump’s inauguration finally took place yesterday. Trump made some big announcements as part of “America’s First Priorities” among which crypto couldn’t grab a place. Even though the crypto community got disappointed a bit, it remained hopeful as industry leaders confirmed that crypto will be included in the first 200 executive orders. Meanwhile, Trump family’s crypto project World Liberty Financial made an additional investment of $112.8 million in multiple cryptocurrencies. The official World Liberty Financial account announced the investment as part of Donald J. Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the US celebrations. As per the announcement, WLFI made strategic purchases of Ether, Wrapped Bitcoin, Aave, Chainlink, Tron, and Ethena cryptocurrencies. While the total investment is worth $112.8 million, Ether and wBTC purchases are worth $47 million each. Aave, LINK, TRX, and ENA investments are worth $4.7 million each.

As a result, WLFI Ether holdings increased to 57,115 ETH, which accounts for more than half of the WLFI portfolio. World Liberty Financial Completed 20% Token Supply Sale On another note, the Trump family’s crypto project World Liberty Financial completed a 20% token supply sale. To serve the massive demand and interest among investors, the project opened an additional block of 5% token supply today. The $112.8 million crypto purchase on Trump’s first day came as WLFI completed a 20% token supply sale.

With this, the total Tron investment into WLFI increased to $75 million. Highlighted Crypto News Today: Mark Cuban Plans Trump-Inspired Memecoin to Pay Off US Debt
 
The Dogecoin price is at a critical juncture as a crypto analyst has pinpointed key price levels that could dictate its next significant move upwards. With the number one meme coin currently trading above $0.34, the analyst predicts a breakout to $1.4 if bullish conditions stay favorable and a price crash to new lows if Dogecoin fails to reach a critical level. Dogecoin Price: Will It Pump Or Crash? According to a TradingView crypto analyst known as ‘Mindbloome-Trading,’ the Dogecoin price is on the verge of an exponential pump that will push its value above the coveted $1 mark. The crypto expert presented a video chart analysis, highlighting $0.46 as a crucial resistance level for Dogecoin. This price point aligns with the 0.382 Fibonacci level, which is often a significant barrier in technical analysis. The TradingView market expert has suggested that if Dogecoin surpasses the $0.46 resistance level, it could ignite a rally that propels the meme coin to its next bullish target at $1.4. Such a move would likely be driven by increased demand and buying pressure from investors. Conversely, the analyst shared a bearish outlook for Dogecoin. He indicated that if Dogecoin fails to maintain the support level at $0.3, the meme coin could be at risk of a severe decline. He predicts a DOGE price crash to a lower support level at $0.23, achieving new price lows not seen since 2024. Falling back to the $0.23 level could send bearish signals to the market, potentially leading to increased selling pressure and more declines. The analyst has revealed that Dogecoin is currently in a support phase, and its next price movements could determine the direction of its future value. While the TradingView crypto expert shares his bullish and bearish price forecast for Dogecoin, his detailed video chart shows Dogecoin’s price movements from 2020 to 2024, highlighting key peaks and troughs that indicate past volatility. The chart also pinpoints key support and resistance zones using Fibonacci extension and retracement levels to predict the meme coin’s next price level. What’s Driving Dogecoin’s Current Trend? The Dogecoin price is currently experiencing severe downside momentum despite multiple bullish forecasts suggesting an imminent rally. The major factors driving Dogecoin’s bullish sentiment in the crypto market are the recent inauguration of Donald Trump as the new President of the United States (US) and the influence of SpaceX and Tesla CEO Elon Musk, who has established the new Department of Government Efficiency (D.O.G.E) unit. Despite expectations of a bull run, Dogecoin has declined by 9.64% in one day to trade at $0.34, according to CoinMarketCap. Nevertheless, analysts on the popular X social media platform remain bullish, forecasting significant price increases in the future. One notable prediction by crypto analyst and Dogecoin supporter David Butler suggests that the popular meme coin could rally by 100X to reach $34. While this projection may seem rather ambitious, the analyst is confident that a price increase to this level is inevitable.

In a move that dashed high-flying expectations, US President Donald J. Trump ended his first day in office without issuing any crypto-related executive orders or referencing the much-touted Strategic Bitcoin Reserve he had teased during the Bitcoin 2024 conference in Nashville. Bitcoin’s price, which had surged to nearly $110,000 on hopes of a landmark announcement, retreated swiftly once it became clear the inauguration address would offer no explicit nod to digital assets. What Next For The Bitcoin Price? Now, with BTC hovering in what analysts describe as no-man’s land, the market looks to the White House for any indication that Trump’s earlier pro-Bitcoin rhetoric might translate into action. Crypto analyst CRG (@MacroCRG) encapsulated the uneasy sentiment on X , claiming that “crypto feeling a bit directionless” could quickly change if Trump simply mentions Bitcoin. CRG argued, “but all its gonna take is 1 mention from Trump and it sends IMO. Trump’s team bought 9 figs of crypto yday, won’t be long until they start blasting hopium.” Some observers maintain that Bitcoin’s overarching technical indicators remain favorable. Markus Thielen, a researcher at Matrixport, commented on X that “since mid-November, Bitcoin has been trading within a narrowing wedge,” stifled by conflicting signals—ranging from higher inflation data to hopes of a supportive White House. According to Thielen, Trump’s inauguration served as a catalyst for Bitcoin to break out of that wedge, but whether this breakout can hold depends on BTC maintaining support around the upper boundary. “Bitcoin is now retesting the breakout level, which corresponds to the upper boundary of the wedge. If Bitcoin holds above this key support, the short-term outlook remains highly bullish, with the breakout signaling renewed upward momentum,” Thielen writes. Renowned analyst Rekt Capital (@rektcapital) pointed out on X that Bitcoin managed to retest key levels, notably at $101,000. While the market saw a harsh rejection from its range high, Rekt Capital emphasizes that this retest of both the “red diagonal” and the “black Range Low” is a strong sign that BTC might consolidate in the $101,000-$106,000 corridor before potentially marching higher again. Meanwhile, trader Crypto Chase (@Crypto_Chase) hinted at a willingness to go long if Bitcoin dips to around $99,500. He noted: “I’d take a long from 99.5K~ if offered. I think gray box needs to hold for local bullishness and sweeping all the Trump leadup / news PA makes sense. I’d also accept a sweep of the 97K low, but that’s farthest it should go. Any good amount of time spent past 96-97K and my plan / read is likely off. Inval low 90’s, aiming for new ATH’s. 3R~ trade.” Despite Wednesday’s disappointment, many believe the president’s pro-Bitcoin stance remains intact. David Bailey, CEO of BTC Inc. and a key figure in Trump’s shift toward a more Bitcoin and crypto-friendly position, took to X today, revealing: “Got confirmation tonight that our EOs are among the first 200. I have no idea what made it in, but good news cometh.” Bailey also stated these include “EOs related to Bitcoin or crypto,” leaving open the possibility of a sudden policy bombshell. Should such an order materialize, markets could quickly pivot back into bullish territory. For now, however, traders and investors remain in limbo, awaiting that elusive official statement or executive order—from the White House that might reignite Bitcoin’s momentum. At press time, BTC traded at $103,182.
 
David Bailey got confirmation that crypto will be included in the first 200 executive orders. The crypto community got disappointed as there was no mention of crypto on Donald Trump’s first day as the president. As Donald Trump’s inauguration as the 47th President of the US completed successfully, the crypto community is eagerly awaiting major reforms to the industry. However, Trump made no sound on cryptocurrencies on his first day. Despite there was no mention of crypto, the industry remained hopeful of regulation and adoption of crypto in the US. Adding to the existing hopes of the community members, industry leaders, and investors, Bitcoin Magazine CEO David Bailey stated that he got confirmation that the first 200 executive orders (EOs) include crypto. While he has no idea about what the EOs include, he confirmed that it will be good news for the industry. Bailey didn’t reveal any sources, through which he got this confirmation. Donald Trump Made no Mention of Crypto on the First Day The President, who launched his own memecoin and the World Liberty Financial crypto project, did not mention crypto in his inaugural address. After the inauguration, White House announced “America’s First Priorities,” in which crypto was supposed to be included. To our surprise, there was not a single mention of crypto, blockchain, or Bitcoin. Even though the crypto community got disappointed, several industry officials and leaders are confirming that his next EOs will include crypto. On the other hand, community members are commenting that Trump has already proved his commitment to crypto with his TRUMP memecoin launch and WLFI project. The community is still hopeful that he will regulate the industry to help increase crypto adoption. Circle CEO Says Upcoming Executive Orders Increase Crypto Adoption in the US During an interview with the Reuters Global Markets Forum at World Economic Forum’s annual meeting in Davos, Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire also confirmed there going to be crypto EOs. He further stated that upcoming crypto EOs could allow banks to trade crypto and offer crypto investments to wealthy clients. Jeremy Allaire also said he would like to see the revocation of the SEC’s Staff Accounting Bulletin 121. Because, the SEC made it difficult for banks and financial institutions to hold crypto assets in their balance sheets. Allaire said he would watch EOs especially in regards to the SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 121. During the same, Coinbase Chief Policy Officer also said that they expect the new SEC will take action and bring banks into the custodial space. Nonetheless, several sources including industry officials and leaders are confirming that we will see crypto in the first 200 executive orders. As there was no mention of crypto on the first day, the crypto community is staying wide awake waiting for EOs that bring major changes favorable to the crypto industry.
