What to know:
- BONK fell 2.4% to $0.00001488 after breaching the $0.000015 support level.
- Volume spiked 38% above average, signaling strong market participation.
- Traders watch $0.00001475 for potential bottom before a recovery attempt.
BONK-USD slipped 2.4% over the past 24 hours to $0.00001488, retreating below its crucial psychological threshold at $0.000015. Despite the sharp selloff, sentiment across meme coin traders remains cautiously optimistic as the asset consolidates near short-term support.
The breakdown came amid a volume surge, with 749.86 billion tokens traded — roughly 38% higher than the daily average, according to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis data model. This spike suggests that while the selloff was forceful, liquidity remains deep enough to support potential rebounds once selling pressure eases.

BONK struggled to sustain momentum above $0.00001524, forming a series of lower highs that reinforced a near-term downtrend. Still, the coin’s resilience around $0.00001488 hints at early accumulation from dip buyers positioning for a recovery back toward the $0.00001500–$0.00001520 range.
Technical indicators point to consolidation rather than capitulation. The trading range widened to 5.2% intraday volatility, with leveraged positions unwinding at the day’s low near $0.00001487. Analysts now view $0.00001475 as the key inflection point; holding above it could pave the way for a rebound, especially if volume contracts and relative strength improves in upcoming sessions.
While the recent move rattled some traders, BONK’s broader structure remains intact within its longer-term uptrend. As speculative interest persists across meme coins, any bounce above the $0.000015 resistance could trigger short covering and renewed bullish sentiment.

KuCoin captured a record share of centralised exchange volume in 2025, with more than $1.25tn traded as its volumes grew faster than the wider crypto market.
What to know:
- KuCoin recorded over $1.25 trillion in total trading volume in 2025, equivalent to an average of roughly $114 billion per month, marking its strongest year on record.
- This performance translated into an all-time high share of centralised exchange volume, as KuCoin’s activity expanded faster than aggregate CEX volumes, which slowed during periods of lower market volatility.
- Spot and derivatives volumes were evenly split, each exceeding $500 billion for the year, signalling broad-based usage rather than reliance on a single product line.
- Altcoins accounted for the majority of trading activity, reinforcing KuCoin’s role as a primary liquidity venue beyond BTC and ETH at a time when majors saw more muted turnover.
- Even as overall crypto volumes softened mid-year, KuCoin maintained elevated baseline activity, indicating structurally higher user engagement rather than short-lived volume spikes.

Gold tops $5,000 as bitcoin stalls near $87,000 in widening macro-crypto split: Asia Morning Briefing
Bitcoin’s onchain data points to supply overhang and weak participation, while gold’s breakout is priced by markets as a durable macro regime shift.
What to know:
- Gold’s surge above $5,000 an ounce is increasingly seen as a durable regime shift, with investors treating the metal as a persistent hedge against geopolitical risk, central bank demand and a weaker dollar.
- Bitcoin is stuck near $87,000 in a low-conviction market, as on-chain data show older holders selling into rallies, newer buyers absorbing losses and a heavy supply overhang capping moves toward $100,000.
- Derivatives and prediction markets point to continued consolidation in bitcoin and sustained strength in gold, with thin futures volumes, subdued leverage and weak demand for higher-beta crypto assets like ether reinforcing the cautious tone.
