Ethereum is quietly setting up for a potentially decisive move as the Libra formation remains active on the weekly chart. While confirmation is still pending, the structure has not been invalidated, keeping the upside scenario firmly on the table. With key resistance levels overhead and momentum beginning to stabilize, ETH may be entering a critical phase where the next major directional move starts to take shape. Weekly Libra Formation Keeps The Bullish Case Alive On the X platform, Kamile Uray highlighted that Ethereum is currently forming a Libra pattern on the weekly chart. With the weekly candle yet to close and no invalidation so far, the bullish formation remains active and continues to be a valid scenario. Related Reading: Ethereum Bulls Must Conquer $3,050 Or Momentum Quickly Fades According to the update, confirmation of a reversal would open the door for a move toward the $4,956 high, but the price may face notable resistance along the way, particularly around the $3,445 level. Kamile Uray noted that a daily close above $2,475 would serve as the first technical signal that upside momentum is strengthening and that the recovery could continue. Failure to sustain movement above this area could delay further progress and keep the price vulnerable to pullbacks. Since the Libra formation is developing on the weekly timeframe, the pattern would only be considered invalid if Ethereum breaks below the $1,388 low, underscoring the broader, long-term nature of the setup. Ethereum Stretches Higher At $2,086 After A Sharp 22% Run According to Can Özsüer, Ethereum is currently trading around $2,086, marking a strong rally from the $1,730 area. From that level to the current price, ETH has surged roughly 22% without a meaningful correction, which increases the likelihood of short-term profit-taking. After such a sharp move, light selling pressure typically emerges as the market cools off. Related Reading: Analyst Says You’re Not Bullish Enough On Ethereum – What Does He Mean? Can Özsüer notes that any selling from this region is expected to remain controlled rather than aggressive. The ideal pullback zone lies between $1,950 and $2,000, where the price could reset without damaging the broader bullish structure. A dip into this range would be considered healthy and could set the stage for the next leg higher. Once that corrective move plays out, the next upside objective comes in around the $2,200 level. However, if price pushes straight toward the target without offering a pullback, the strategy would need adjustment. In that scenario, chasing a long position becomes less attractive, as a stronger selling wave could follow once the target is reached. If a correction does materialize, Can Özsüer suggests that a long position on the pullback would be the preferred approach. Featured image from Pixabay, chart from Tradingview.com
The idea of getting rich from internet memes is being seriously re-examined. While the early days of meme coins produced some rapid success stories, the market looks very different now. Many investors who held popular dog-themed tokens are facing a tougher reality as enthusiasm fades. The attention that once came purely from hype is no longer enough, and users are starting to demand real purpose. At the same time, a new generation of crypto protocols is beginning to take shape. These projects are not built around social media trends. Instead, they focus on creating practical financial tools with long-term value. This steady shift of capital away from hype-driven assets and toward functional systems is becoming one of the defining stories of 2026. Shiba Inu (SHIB) Shiba Inu (SHIB) is trading at an estimated $0.000006, and the drop in its worth appears to be brutal, having fallen more than 60% since a historic peak in 2021. The token is failing to see a reason to climb even after its huge brand name and market cap worth almost $3.5 billion. Gone are the childhood days of vertical rallies. The SHIB technical charts indicate that the levels of resistance are high at the $0.000010 and $0.000012 levels. These sections are full of vendors who are seeking to break even in years of holding. Analysts are making pessimistic price forecasts in the remaining part of the year. According to some professionals, SHIB might fall another 20% to $0.000004 in the case of the current support being lost. Mutuum Finance (MUTM) The crypto protocol now drawing attention from former meme coin investors is Mutuum Finance (MUTM) . It is a decentralized platform in development that focuses on non-custodial lending and borrowing. The goal is to let users earn interest on their crypto or access liquidity without selling their long-term holdings. The project has already raised over $20.43 million and attracted more than 19,000 holders, showing steady community growth. Mutuum Finance is currently in Phase 7 of its distribution, with the token priced at $0.04. This reflects roughly 300% growth from early phases, while still sitting below the stated launch price of $0.06, which many analysts see as leaving room for further upside if development milestones continue to be met. Why MUTM May outperform SHIB First, the size of the market capital is a massive determinant in returns in the future. Shiba Inu has an already existing market cap of $4 billion. SHIB requires an additional $4 billion new money to gain by half. This constrains its potential to a large extent. MUTM is on a far earlier level. Its market cap is low hence it takes a very small amount of capital to achieve huge percentage returns. It possesses the type of growth room that SHIB had in 2020. Second, there is a difference in utility. Shiba Inu is mostly a meme coin that is driven by hype. In its effort to add features, it has no fundamental financial reason. MUTM is built around utility. It uses mtTokens, which are designed to be interest-bearing assets that increase in value as interest is paid back through the system. These tokens are meant to represent a user’s share in supplied assets rather than act as simple placeholders. The project also outlines a buy-and-distribute model in its design. Under this plan, a portion of protocol fees is intended to be used to buy MUTM tokens from the market and redistribute them to the community. This approach is focused on linking token value to platform usage, rather than relying on short-term hype often seen with meme coins. Third, it is all about timing in crypto. The reason why many early SHIB investors are moving to MUTM is that they can see the momentum. Recently, Mutuum Finance just activated the V1 protocol on the testnet. This proves the tech is ready. Investors desire to be associated with a project that is only beginning to make its way instead of a project that has already reached its climax. The Last Window and the Security Demand is continuing to build as Phase 7 progresses, with many participants aiming to secure the $0.04 price before the planned $0.06 launch level. Interest has increased as availability tightens, which is common in later distribution stages. Security has also been a key focus for the project. Mutuum Finance has completed a full audit with Halborn and maintains a strong score from CertiK, adding confidence for cautious investors. To encourage participation, the platform runs a 24-hour leaderboard, where the top daily contributor can receive a $500 bonus. Easy entry options, including card payments, have lowered the barrier to join. As meme tokens like SHIB struggle to regain momentum, more investors are beginning to look toward utility-driven projects such as Mutuum Finance.

Bitcoin (BTC) Reclaims $70,000 As Market Rebounds The cryptocurrency market made a strong rebound on Friday as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other tokens bounced to reclaim key levels. The flagship cryptocurrency briefly lost the $60,000 mark on Thursday, resulting in the liquidation of $1.1 billion in BTC longs. Investors began accumulating again at lower levels as Bitcoin finally saw a dip buying in force. Binance’s Secure Asset Fund for Users (SAFU), an insurance fund established by Binance, bought 3,600 BTC worth $250 million, for $65,000 per coin. The purchase comes after Binance’s recent announcement stating that it plans to convert $1 billion SAFU reserves into Bitcoin over the next 30 days. Several crypto hedge funds have also begun buying the dip. According to Bitwise Head of Research, Andre Dragosch, the aggregate market beta across all global crypto hedge funds hit its highest level in two years as BTC weakened. “Looks like Crypto Hedge Funds are 'buying the dip'. Aggregate market beta across all global crypto hedge funds has increased to the highest level in 2 years. Signals increasing BTC market exposure by crypto hedge funds.” BTC rebounded late on Friday, briefly crossing $71,000 to $71,605. However, it failed to push higher and slipped to $67,629. The flagship cryptocurrency rose over 4% in the past 24 hours. Meanwhile, Ethereum (ETH) reclaimed the $2,000 mark and is currently trading around $2,009, up nearly 6%. Ripple (XRP) rallied almost 9% over the past 24 hours, trading around $1.41. Solana (SOL) rebounded and reached $89.50 before losing momentum and dropping to $85.
