💰 Is The 'Old Coin' Activated, Again?

Hi there, the keyword on my mind right now is “comeback” — a coin that had a brilliant bull run in 2020-2021. Now, we’re seeing the same pattern emerge in 2024-2025.

🚀 $XRP Surpasses $SOL Into Top 3 Market Capitalization

The crypto community was shocked as the price of XRP (Ripple) surged, reaching $2.43 (according to CoinMarketCap), the highest it's been since 2018 when it hit its all-time high of $3.40.

What many of the "old coins" that saw big gains on November 22 have in common is that most of them kept a market value of over $1 billion, even during the downtrend. Plus, nearly all of their tokens are now fully unlocked.

So what is the reason?

• Rumor: Li Ka-shing, Hong Kong's wealthiest billionaire, is believed to be behind the recent rise in XRP prices.

• Donald Trump's election as U.S. president in 2024, and news that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will step down in January. These changes are easing the pressure from regulators that has weighed on the market for years. Also, Brian Brooks (a member of the HBAR Foundation's board of directors) is expected to become Gensler's successor. This also explains why the HBAR token has tripled in less than a month.

• The New York Department of Financial Services (NYDFS) is expected to approve Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin. If approved, the coin will launch on December 4 and help support cross-border payments.

The spotlight on the Crypto market belongs to the "old coins" with a series of names increasing strongly such as:

• XLM +51%: It's up 5 times since the start of the month, rising from around $0.10 to $0.51 as of now.

• ALGO +26%, ADA +22%, AVAX +21%, and more.

🚨 4 Key Signals That Investor Should Track

1. Fear & Greed Index (F&G): When the F&G Index hits ‘Extreme Greed’ (80+), brace yourself. A pullback is likely just around the corner.

2. Funding Rates: If funding rates rise above 0.05%, that’s your signal to stay alert. The risk of a pullback is climbing.

3. RSI Heatmap: If a token is stuck in the ‘overbought’ zone, don’t ignore it. It means buyers are getting tired, and a pullback is on the horizon.

4. Timeline Euphoria: Seeing everyone post portfolio screenshots and bragging about gains? That’s a flashing warning sign. When the market is overconfident, the pullback hits harder.

Key takeaways:

• Watch for the warning signs: Fear & Greed, Funding Rates, Overbought RSI, and Timeline Euphoria can stay dangerously high for weeks in a bull run.

• Time is ticking: The longer these signals stay hot, the closer we get to that inevitable pullback.

• Elevated indicators = red flag: When all the signs point to "overheated," it’s your cue to step back, hold tight, and think before you buy — or worse, sell too late.

• Trust the signals: These indicators are your lifeline to surviving the next pullback. Don’t let an overhyped market catch you off guard.
