Activity briefly accelerated, with volume reaching 754 billion tokens — about 46% above its hourly moving average — as BONK challenged the upper end of the range. Despite the increased participation, the token failed to sustain momentum above resistance, reverting to sideways movement as volume tapered into the close. Later trading saw a brief dip toward $0.00000982 before a quick V-shaped recovery lifted BONK back toward its session midpoint.
The consolidation dynamic has characterized BONK’s market structure in recent days, with traders largely positioning around well-established intraday levels in the absence of major catalysts. Repeated support holds at $0.00000980 and consistent absorption during pullbacks suggest buyers remain active within the range, though a clear breakout signal has yet to emerge.
Unless volume returns meaningfully on a push above $0.00001020, BONK’s technical profile points to continued range-bound trading. A breakdown below support, meanwhile, would expose the token to deeper retracement toward $0.00000950.

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.
알아야 할 것:
- 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.
