The USDT trading pairs showed interesting momentum swings. THE (THENA) led the gainers with a sharp 7.41% surge, followed by STX (Stacks) climbing 5.11% and KAITO (Kaito) up 4.85%. Meanwhile, the pullback side saw FXS (Frax Share) dropping 5.14%, BANK (Lorenzo Protocol) sliding 4.21%, and DUSK (Dusk) retreating 2.38%.
Volume-wise, USDC dominated the action at 161.47M in trading activity. The mixed signals across different tokens suggest selective buying in layer-2 and AI narrative coins while weakness persists in governance and privacy-focused tokens. Traders watching these spot flows should note the divergence—strength in THE and STX contrasts sharply with the selloff in FXS.

THE's 7.41% surge looks very attractive, but backtesting shows that such short-term rapid increases are hard to hold, with risk levels at their maximum... However, I still have a bit of FOMO and plan to look for arbitrage opportunities on the 5-minute chart to test the waters.
FXS's five consecutive declines are really astonishing. What do on-chain data say? Are whale addresses dumping again? Can we small investors still buy the dip?
How long can the 161.47M USDC support this divergence? Feels like we're right in the eye of the storm—one wrong move and we might get caught.
The Layer 2 narrative for STX has started, but the governance token is all falling. This divergence phenomenon is a bit strange... This post does not constitute investment advice.
I went all-in on THE this morning and got trapped. This aligns well with my understanding of the market and my expectations for myself.

THE directly soars 7.41%, I like this momentum, STX also surges, but FXS drops over 5%... governance tokens are really a bit disappointing
---
Layer-2 and AI coins are bleeding, privacy coins are being abandoned, market players are getting smarter
---
USDC traded 161M in one hour, the divergence between THE and STX is too obvious, airdrop farmers should wake up
---
Why is FXS so miserable? Is everyone afraid of governance tokens?
---
Looking at this market, selective buying is just choosing to cut leeks selectively, haha
---
When THE hit 7.41%, I knew I had to run. Usually, there’s no good show after such a rapid rise
---
It's a bit strange, USDT is oscillating like this, feels like a reversal might happen in the next hour

THE and STX are rising again. Another round of selective buying. It seems that Layer 2 and AI narratives are still in favor.

This wave of the rally is quite fierce, but it feels like funds are just rotating, don't get too excited.
FXS has dropped so much, governance tokens really aren't in demand.
STX and THE teaming up to pump, the layer2 narrative is still alive.
USDC trading volume is 161M, is anyone really trading seriously?
Making money with the AI narrative, privacy coins are getting beaten up, this market is just like this.
Watching THE rise over 5 points, I remember the days I got wrecked before...
A coin with such a small market cap rising 7%, how much capital does that take? It feels a bit off.
With FXS dropping this much, I should have never touched governance.
Layer2 is rising? Then those who went all-in on memes before are going to cry.
The chaotic market is like this, some make a killing while others suffer heavy losses.

This wave of rally is fierce, with a 7.41% surge taking off directly. STX is also getting lively... feels like the same narrative rotation again.
The decline in FXS is a bit harsh; governance tokens have really been taking a hit lately.
AI and L2 are still vying for attention; it seems that's the only fresh trend in the market.
USDC trading volume is so high? Looks like stablecoins are still the most popular.
The market divergence this time is quite intense. Those looking to buy the dip should choose their targets carefully.

Once again, this kind of divergent market trend, THE and STX are in favor, FXS got hammered, it seems that the ones I thought would be bottoming out are not the ones.
