📊 With volatility at its peak during the opening days of February, whale transactions are indicative of which altcoins you should have on your radar. The assets seeing the highest rises in whale activity this week are:

🐳 1) Dai $DAI
🐳 2) Floki $FLOKI
🐳 3) Chintai $CHEX
🐳 4) Aave $AAVE
🐳 5) Jasmy $JASMY
🐳 6) Apecoin $APE
🐳 7) Maker $MKR
🐳 8) Cronos $CRO
🐳 9) Kucoin $KCS

📈 Altcoins have seen a huge breakout Tuesday, even with Bitcoin dropping as low as $92.4K before a mild recovery. For those that scooped up speculative cryptocurrencies on the dip, things have worked out well. But note that BTC has mainly led the way throughout this bull cycle.

🐳 Despite sizeable crypto corrections this week, several altcoins are making very large whale transfers that are indicative of potential dip buys. Among $500M+ market caps, these are the assets seeing the highest rises in whale transactions over the past week:

1) Usual $USUAL

2) Virtuals $VIRTUAL

3) Usual $USD0

4) Gnosis $GNO

5) Fast $FTN

6) Aave $AAVE

7) First Digital USD $FDUSD

8) Multi Collateral Dai $DAI (On Polygon)

📈 As several altcoins grow today, AAVE has erupted to a market value of over $300 for the first time in over 3 years. Pay attention to projects that have massive drops in "Mean Dollar Invested Age" like AAVE. This indicates major key stakeholders are moving previously stagnant tokens back into circulation, perpetuating bullish momentum for the asset.

Also pictured in this chart is the average returns of 30-day (+33%) and 365-day (+109%) active traders for AAVE. With all cryptocurrencies being a zero sum game, returns above 0% indicate a higher risk than usual.

If whales can continue to circulate older coins back into circulation, this rally can have a bit more steam... but a retrace could occur as soon as large wallets 'put on the brakes'.

📊 In the past 2 weeks, AAVE's market cap has grown by +53% with aid from trader speculation of more advantageous DeFi conditions under Trump's pro-crypto policies.

Massive daily milestones in the #40 market cap's on-chain data have appeared in the past 24 hours, including:

🐳 587 whale transactions (Most Since Mar, 2022)
✉️ 385.9M in on-chain tx. volume (Most Since Oct, 2021)
💸 2,346 unique addresses transacting on the network (Most Since Jun, 2023)

Expect that these major spikes may foreshadow volatility for the project. But with positive news continuing to come out for AAVE, it appears that the upside paints a strong long-term picture.

🗣️ Bitcoin just jumped back over $60K, as traders are eyeing altcoins at the moment. The top trending assets, based on discussion rate, are:

🪙 Chiliz $CHZ: Traders expressing excitement over the $PEPPER airdrop, which requires CHZ holders to stake a minimum amount to qualify for new tokens.

🪙 Aave $AAVE: Integration with World Liberty Financial, a project linked to the Trump family. It involves the Aave v3 protocol on the Ethereum blockchain, aiming to enhance decentralized finance (DeFi) accessibility for borrowing and lending services.

🪙 Uniswap $UNI: A new Layer-2 network called Unichain have sparked interest, leading to price increases and trading volume spikes.

📊 Keep an eye on the following crypto projects seeing major boosts in whale transactions in the past week (compared to their whale activity the prior week):

🐳 1) Cronos $CRO +255%
🐳 2) Aave $AAVE (On Optimism) +100%
🐳 3) Ethena USDe $USDe +82%
🐳 4) Multi-Collateral Dai $DAI +75%
🐳 5) USD Coin $USDC (On Polygon) +57%
🐳 6) Wrapped Ether $WETH +53%
🐳 7) Aave $AAVE (On Polygon) +50%
🐳 8) Toncoin $TON +50%
🐳 9) Immutable X $IMX +36%
🐳 10) Arbitrum $ARB +25%

📈 In general, following whale activity in the altcoin market, can lead to making more optimized profit in your portfolio. Pay particular attention to coins that have been dropping in value that suddenly see massive whale spikes. These are prime candidates for upcoming bounces.

🧐 Altcoins to watch as cryptocurrency continues to enjoy its strong rebound include Decentraland, The Graph, and Aave. Each of these top 100 market caps are seeing significant short ratios on Binance, implying liquidations would lead to big price jumps.

📈 Render (RNDR), Aave (AAVE), and Maker (MKR) are the three most notable altcoins seeing address activity rises the past couple of days amongst the many market cap rises. Historically, rising levels of wallets interacting on networks is a sign of future bullish behavior.

💸 #DeFi has taken some of the spotlight from the #AI craze. Assets that enable users to lend, borrow, or exchange #crypto without a central authority like $UNI, $COMP, $SUSHI, and $AAVE all spiked in value following a key #Uniswap proposal to reward staked and delegated token holders.
