Precio de AsterDEXASTER

$ASTER continues to show real strength on the charts — holding key levels while most tokens are bleeding. That’s usually a sign of strong hands and growing confidence in the project 💪 On the flip side, $MON left a lot of traders heartbroken today many were hyped for airdrop claims, only to be hit with the “ineligible” tag. Classic reminder that not all early supporters get rewarded equally. Luckily, I had already stacked up some $MON from Bitget pre-market futures, which turned out to be a solid move Moments like this separate those who chase hype from those who prepare early and Bitget Onchain keeps proving to be that edge $BGB $BNB $BTC $ETH

Large crypto holders, often referred to as whales, are positioning themselves for another potential market downturn. Major players have opened significant short positions on $BTC and popular altcoins such as $XRP, $DOGE, and Pepe Coin $PEPE ahead of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell’s speech. Notably, the well-known “Trump Insider Whale” — famous for accurately timing the last major crypto crash — has expanded its short exposure once again. According to on-chain data, whales sitting on massive unrealised profits appear to be expecting another sharp correction or wave of profit-taking. The “Trump Insider Whale,” in particular, has reportedly strengthened its bearish bets, mirroring moves that previously preceded one of the largest market crashes in crypto history. One whale, identified as address 0x9eec9, currently holds around $98 million in short positions across Dogecoin, Ethereum, $PEPE $XRP, and Aster, after already locking in profits of roughly $31.8 million. Another whale, 0x9263, has opened $84 million in short positions on Solana $SOL and $BTC, with a realised profit of $13.2 million so far. Meanwhile, the original Bitcoin “OG” whale has reportedly expanded its short position on BTC to $492 million, currently sitting on a floating profit of around $9 million, with a liquidation level set near $124,420. This same investor had earlier opened a $340 million Bitcoin short — and was previously dubbed the “Trump Insider Whale” after successfully shorting $700 million in $BTC and $350 million in $ETH just before the last major market crash, earning a staggering $200 million profit. As markets brace for Powell’s remarks, sentiment remains tense. Investors are looking for hints on potential rate cuts, inflation trends, and the broader economic outlook amid continued uncertainty surrounding the US fiscal situation. In the altcoin market, prices have already started to soften. $XRP has slipped nearly 2% in the past 24 hours, now trading around $2.53, with trading volumes down by 17%. Dogecoin has fallen by over 1% to $0.206, hovering close to its 200-day moving average — a level that could trigger more profit-taking if breached. Meanwhile, Pepe Coin has given up some of its earlier gains but still remains up around 1%, trading near $0.0576. Overall, with whales doubling down on short bets and traders awaiting the Fed’s next cue, today’s market movements could set the tone for the next major shift in crypto momentum.
