Learn to read the RSI indicator: The Great Lie Detector of the Market
What is RSI? The RSI is a momentum-based oscillator that captures the speed and change of price movements. It operates on a scale of 0 to 100, and if you know how to read it, it's like getting an X-ray view of market moods. The best part? It's super easy to use: just place it on any chart, on any time frame, and let it do its thing.
The numbers Above 70: Overbought Alert! If the RSI shows a reading above 70, the trading instrument may have been partying too long. Anything above 70 means it is flashing “overbought,” like a sugar high about to crash. Traders who follow the RSI often interpret this as a signal to sell and exit the asset before the line changes course and dips back below the high water mark. Sometimes, however, the price continues to rise well above 70.

⚛️ Solana's price continues to trade within a well defined range, fluctuating between a solid support zone around $105–115 and a significant resistance level near $260–280. The pattern has been consistent: each approach to the upper boundary faces rejection, while every decline toward support attracts buying interest.
Currently, SOL is trading near the lower end of this range, an area where buyer activity has historically emerged. This behavior suggests the market is undergoing a phase of accumulation within the range rather than signaling a breakdown.
If the support level holds, a rebound toward the $180 200 area appears to be the initial potential scenario. A decisive break above the upper resistance would indicate a stronger bullish shift and could open the path for a more sustained upward move.
The current structure calls for a patient approach there is no need to rush or chase the price. This is a time to observe, wait for confirmation, and plan trades carefully, as patience tends to be rewarded in such consolidating market phases.
☝🏽✨️ Ethereum is positioned in what could be described as a perfect liquidation trap, and the next move could be sharp.
Open interest data reveals massive liquidation walls on both sides of the market, collectively exceeding $1 billion. A move of around 10% would be enough to trigger a liquidation cascade:
- To the upside: $1.64 billion in short positions could be liquidated if ETH pushes higher.
- To the downside: $1.05 billion in leveraged long positions are exposed if the price declines.
This does not reflect strong directional conviction, but rather extreme, compressed leverage. When both sides are so heavily positioned, price doesn't adjust gradually—it tends to snap. In this setup, liquidity acts more like fuel than support.
The market is coiled with tension, and ETH appears to be the trigger. The key question now is: which side blinks first the bears or the bulls? 👀
$ASTER Buyback Program Explained: Boosting Value & Stability 🔥💪
Hey everyone! We’re launching a structured buyback program to strengthen ASTER tokenomics and build long-term value for our community.
Starting December 23, 2025, we’ll use up to 80% of daily platform fees to buy back ASTER tokens from the market. Here’s how it works:
🔹 Daily Automatic Buybacks (40% of fees) Every day, a portion of fees will automatically go toward buying back ASTER tokens. This means steady, on-chain support and a gradual reduction in supply helping to stabilize and grow token value over time.
🔹 Strategic Buyback Reserve (20–40% of fees) We’re setting aside a flexible reserve to make smarter, timed buybacks based on market trends. This lets us act during dips or opportunities to maximize returns and support the token when it matters most.
✅ Fully transparent & on-chain , Every transaction is public and verifiable. We’ll keep you posted with regular updates.
This program is designed to create sustainable token value, reduce circulating supply, and reinforce confidence in ASTER’s ecosystem.

Alright, so here's the deal with ASTER/USDT. The chart shows pretty clear bearish vibes for the medium term. Right now, it's sitting at $0.725, which is way below its 200-period moving average at $0.957 that's a big red flag and tells us the overall trend is still down. In the short term, though, it's kinda stuck in a tight box, bouncing between immediate support at $0.713 and resistance at $0.739. The momentum indicators are giving mixed messages: the RSI is neutral, but the MACD histogram is poking positive, hinting we might see a little bounce before any bigger move.
So, what are the signals telling us? The MACD's little green bar suggests there could be a short-lived pop upward, but its main lines are still in negative territory, which keeps the bearish story intact. The trading volume is decent, meaning people are still interested, but it's not pushing the price in a clear direction just yet. If buyers manage to push it above $0.739 and hold it there, we could see a run towards $0.854. But if it cracks below $0.713, watch out it could easily slide down toward $0.655 pretty quickly.
Bottom line: the smart move here is to stay cautious and lean towards the downside. The safest play is to wait for a clear break below that $0.713 support to consider shorting, or maybe scalp a small bounce if it holds above support and runs back toward $0.739. Whatever you do, keep your stops tight and your position size small this thing is still trading below its key long-term average, so any uptick might just be a temporary relief rally, not a trend change.
⚛️ $ETH Surpasses 3,000 USDT with a 0.49% Increase in 24 Hours
On Dec 21, 2025, 09:34 AM(UTC). According to Binance Market Data, Ethereum has crossed the 3,000 USDT benchmark and is now trading at 3,000.300049 USDT, with a narrowed 0.49% increase in 24 hours
🚨 BREAKING: The market is pricing in a near certain 89.4% probability that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its upcoming meeting.
☝🏽 Why this matters for crypto:
A rate cut typically signals cheaper money and a shift toward risk-on sentiment. Historically, such conditions have acted as a catalyst for crypto markets particularly for altcoins and memecoins, which often lead the next rally.
🚨 Bottom line: With the Fed potentially moving tomorrow, traders are watching closely. This could be the spark that ignites the next wave of momentum across digital assets. Stay alert and prepared.
☝🏽 IoTeX participated in high-level policy discussions at the Washington Policy Summit, representing the Blockchain Association’s DePIN working group. During the meetings, which included policymakers such as the SEC Chairman, the conversations centered on crypto market structure, stablecoins, and real-world assets.
In dialogue with SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, IoTeX co-founder Jing emphasized how machine networks and AI are creating a new economic framework. He noted that the digital tokenization of DePIN and real world assets could broaden capital access in the U.S., help meet energy demands during the AI expansion, and allow broader public participation in the growing economy factors that could also drive stablecoin adoption.
Regarding regulation, SEC Chairman Atkins struck an encouraging tone, suggesting most tokens including those in DePIN networks would likely not be treated as securities. He also indicated that initial coin offerings may see a revival in the U.S., with the SEC planning to advance token classification guidelines and innovation-safe exemptions in the coming year to provide clearer regulatory pathways.
As global regulatory frameworks evolve, IoTeX continues to engage in these pivotal discussions, aiming to align policy with technological innovation and support U.S. leadership in digital currency, decentralized infrastructure, and AI.
