Pre-Word
This article has been written while walking on a walking pad at a standup desk, not that it's much of interest but I did about 4km (approx. 2.4 miles) and approx. 5700 steps.
The message behind this is stay healthy and find yourself day to day things you can integrate healthy activities or possibilities into.
Quick Market Update
Let’s have a quick recap of the week by starting with the @Bitcoin chart. It was a choppy and bearish week — we started around $108K, hit above $110K briefly, but steadily declined toward the weekend. Bitcoin now stabilizes around $104,654, marking a -2.76% loss over the last 7 days.
Now let’s find out how the rest of the Top 10 performed. A more negative week for majors, with only a few exceptions showing strength.
Top performers:
@Ethereum (ETH) is the only token in green this week +1.10%
Mild movers:
@trondao (TRON) managed to stay close to neutral with only -0.67%
@binance (BNB) dropped -1.53%
@Bitcoin (BTC) that dropped about -2.50%
Notable losers:
Overall: A clear red week across majors, with @Ethereum being the only one keeping its heads above water.
But how did the @dogecoin memecoin friends do?
Memecoins faced a sharp correction after last week’s green burst. Some did better then DOGE but some did also worse.
Top performer:
SPX6900 stood out with a +17.86% gain — huge momentum this week.
@ApeCoin showed strength with +1.91%, keeping it listed in the top 12
Notable losers:
@Bonk_inu dropped -14.56%
@FartCoinOfSOL plunged -16.51%
@dogwifcoint (WIF) also deep in red at -16.65%
Overall: A rough pullback week across the memecoin space, with only a few exceptions like SPX and APE showing relative strength.
AI Agents & Infra
The AI crypto sector saw very little change overall — total market cap sits at $10.02B, marking a -4.02% decrease over the week.
However, smart engagement and 24h volumes slightly increase, hinting at a positive outlook.
Price changes in the last 7 days:
A volatile but exciting week for AI tokens — a mix of breakouts and breakdowns.
Biggest winners:
@AIXBT_agent exploded +18.51%, massive social and volume traction
@virtuals_io the flywheel keeps spinning up another +11.94%
@KETfromwyoming posted a healthy +8.27%
Big losers:
@Alaya_AI down -13.25% marking 3rd place int he loser list of the week
@FartCoinOfSOL plummeted -17.29%
@cookiedotfun corrected by -22.03% after last week’s spike
Overall: The sector remains highly volatile — large swings both ways, though breakout potential clearly remains with AI-driven agents.
Last but not least, let’s look into NFTs:
This week in NFTs was another mixed bag — bluechips held fairly strong, while some mid-tier projects struggled.
Top gainers:
@MadLads had a monster week with +13.86%
@BoredApeYC climbed +3.23%, while MAYC held with a small -1.09%
@HypioHL quietly grew +1.74%
Art sector:
Chromie Squiggles gained +4.44%
Fidenza remained stable (0%)
Autoglyphs, however, dropped -17.39% down to a 95 ETH floor
Biggest losers:
@TaprootWizards corrected -5.85%
@Azuki fell a good -6.84%
@MiladyMaker lost -10.28%
Overall: High-end and legacy collections continue to show resilience, but we also see a lot of volatility towards both sides.

Floor price: 1.99 ETH
Volume: 207.9 ETH

What is Supremon 151 ?
That's 151 1/1's and 151 days of work.
It's a little-known artistic style: Suprematism (a tribute to Malevich and Kandinsky).
It's 80K new followers on Instagram thanks to this collection. - It's 148 ETH traded on OS in 72H and a 1ETH floor.
They're childhood memories.
It's a proof that NFT's are coming back.
Here is the direct link to the Opensea collection page:
And 8th-Project already teasing a next one, if you missed this one...
And another 100x - @stayloudio
Quick and short, because it was loudio enough this week and only if you live under a rock you missed this, because with over 70% mindshare at times it was everywhere.
I keep it short just to give you the chance to get yourself up to date, but also keep an eye on the @beast_ico timeline as he has mentioned that he will make an article about what happened.
Now let's give you the most important links and close that chapter, at least for me:
