Behind the Moves
Altcoins are taking the heavier hit as Bitcoin holds near $81,000, down roughly 0.52%. Recent outperformers are giving back gains, with supply concerns adding pressure to parts of the market.
PYTH - The rally losing steam
• Profit-taking after PYTH’s strong recent run is evident with the pullback consistent with fading momentum.
STRK L1 excitement meets a longer road ahead
• The post-quantum L1 narrative is cooling as traders reassess the timeline. The current governance poll would authorize research on the L1 but does not approve a migration, and no launch date is set. The gap between expectations and delivery makes the case for the rally’s reversal.
• There's also the 127 million STRK unlock scheduled for October 15. The additional supply remains a potential headwind alongside profit-taking.
ZRO's Upcoming supply keeps traders cautious
• LayerZero’s October 20 token unlock is back in focus. Potential selling from newly available tokens provides a plausible near-term headwind, along with the broader market decline makes up for today slump.
