Sorry, but what is CT in this context?

Vydrah

There are also countless other reasons why this situation is different. Yesterday I genuinely couldn’t believe what people were posting on CT and reddit. Even larger accounts completely clueless and fudding. It’s not worth it to argue with those retards.

Doesn't CT reflect whatever you click, like, and reshare the most?

CoreWeave fell 11.9%, more than twice what Thursday's straddle priced, and finished the week down about 25%. Here's how this morning's six names finished at the regular close (3 PM CT) and in after hours (final, 7:00 PM CT). Closes are Nasdaq's official 3 PM CT prices (VEEA's from StockAnalysis and Yahoo; Nasdaq's page hadn't updated). Highs, lows and their times are Yahoo 1-minute bars. After-hours prices are Nasdaq's extended-trading page, pulled 7:21 PM CT. Borrow is Curved's IBKR feed (7:17 PM CT). Option chains are Nasdaq, Oct 16 expiry, Friday's session. Filings are EDGAR, checked 7:22 PM CT. **Scorecard** Prices are from the first r/Squeeze_em post that named each ticker. The high only counts after that post. Closes are the regular session (3 PM CT). Charts are Yahoo bars with our first listing marked.  **$TCRT**: First listed Tue Oct 13 at 8:19 AM CT, printed $1.86. High since then is still $4.37 (Wed Oct 14, 8:45 AM CT), +134.9%. Today's high $2.99 at 8:42 AM CT, +60.8%. Close $2.63, +41.4%. After hours $2.51 (6:59 PM CT).  **$CRWV**: First listed Thu Oct 15 at about 7:58 AM CT, printed $63.30. High since then is still Thursday's $69.76 (2:59 PM CT), +10.2%, or $70.67 after hours at 3:33 PM CT. Today's high $66.69 on the opening print, +5.4%. Close $61.39, −3.0%. After hours $60.97 (6:59 PM CT).  **$NCPL**: First listed Mon Oct 12 at 8:22 AM CT, printed $1.44. New high since then: $2.74 at 7:29 AM CT today, in premarket, +90.3% (the old high was $2.66 on Oct 12). Regular-session high $2.48 at 8:30 AM CT, +72.2%. Close $2.17, +50.7%. After hours $2.01 (6:59 PM CT).  **$TSLA**: First listed this morning at about 8:13 AM CT, printed $374.45. Never traded above it after the post; regular-session high $370.58 at the 8:30 AM CT open, −1.0%. Close $354.72, −5.3%. Miss. After hours $352.46 (6:59 PM CT). **$VEEA**: First named in our Hard Look on Mon Oct 5 at about $5.72. High since then is still $7.09 (Fri Oct 9, 10:45 AM CT), +24.0%. Today's high $4.87 at the 8:30 AM CT open, −14.9% vs that price. Close $4.21, −26.4% vs Oct 5, and −3.9% vs our first watchlist print of $4.38 on Oct 8. After hours $4.29 on a 5-share trade (6:59 PM CT). **$TFC**: First listed this morning, printed $46.30. High after the post $47.955 at 8:38 AM CT, +3.6%. Close $47.09, +1.7%. After hours the last print was $47.63 on 5 shares (6:49 PM CT); the larger trades sat between $46.63 and $47.22. Against this morning's prints, only TFC closed higher; the other five closed lower. From first listings, NCPL and TCRT are still well up; CRWV, TSLA and VEEA are under. No new name cleared 20% after its first listing. NCPL's premarket high is new, but it already had its 20% post on Oct 13. **Shares** **$VEEA** * Regular close $4.21, −13.0% vs Thursday's $4.84. After hours only 5,975 shares traded; the last print was $4.29 on 5 shares at 6:59 PM CT. * Volume about 374.5K vs Thursday's \~471K. That's about 0.24 times the 1.58M float, under it for a third straight day. * Borrow 886.1% with 60.0K available (Curved, changed 1:47 PM CT, feed 7:17 PM CT). Thursday night: 920.1% / 15.0K. Availability quadrupled while the fee barely moved. * SSR: it traded at or below the $4.36 trigger by 8:51 AM CT, so by our math the short-sale restriction ran the rest of Friday and carries into Monday. Curved shows the flag off. Check your platform. * No new EDGAR filing (last 8-K Oct 9) and no headlines today. NovaGen is still a non-binding term sheet. * What the price did: opened at the day's high of $4.87, slid to $4.022 at 12:09 PM CT, and closed 19 cents off the low. Fade check: not fading. The fee is still far above 50%, and 60K is a long way from the 500K line. It is the first time the locate has loosened since Wednesday, though, and it came on a 13% down day. **$NCPL (Netcapital)** * Regular close $2.17, +9.6% vs Thursday's $1.98, but 13.9% under this morning's $2.52 premarket print. After hours $2.01 (6:59 PM CT), down another 7.4%, with a low of $1.96 at 6:58 PM CT. * Volume about 23.8M vs Thursday's \~44.6M. That's about 5.4 times the 4.39M float: still several turns, at half Thursday's pace. * Borrow 476.5% with 20.0K available (Curved, feed 7:17 PM CT; last change dated Oct 14). Unchanged; threshold list for a 15th day. * New filing: Jane Street filed a Schedule 13G at 3:19 PM CT showing 420,473 shares, 5.4% of the class, as of Oct 9. That's the passive form: the holder certifies it isn't trying to influence control. A position report, not an endorsement. * Still no company filing on the late 10-K and 10-Q; the plan is due to Nasdaq by Oct 23. Law-firm class-action notices kept coming. * What the price did: touched $2.48 in the first minute, was down to $2.02 by 9:00 AM CT, and never got back above $2.32 (11:01 AM CT). Volume is doing the work; it hasn't moved the listing problem. **$TCRT (Alaunos)** * Regular close $2.63, +20.6% vs Thursday's $2.18, but 6.4% under this morning's $2.81 premarket print. After hours $2.51 (6:59 PM CT), after a high of $2.76 at 3:35 PM CT. * Volume about 31.9M, roughly 16.9 times the 1.89M float, against Thursday's \~5.9M regular plus \~12.3M after hours. The after-hours burst carried over. * Borrow 677.7% with 1.0K available (Curved, changed 4:17 PM CT, feed 7:17 PM CT; the page's summary line says 4.0K). Thursday: 81.2% / 90.0K. Sep 30 short interest was only 9,736 shares. A fee jump like this tells you lenders ran out of stock. It doesn't tell you how big the short is. * No new EDGAR filing today after Thursday's Fairmount 13D and Form 3 and the WaterMill 13D/A. Still no resale registration for the private-placement shares. * What the price did: $2.99 at 8:42 AM CT, $2.31 at 10:19 AM CT, back to $2.85 by 12:18 PM CT, close $2.63. **Options** **$CRWV (CoreWeave)** * Regular close $61.39, −11.9% vs Thursday's $69.69. The $70 straddle priced about 5.2% ($3.66). The move was more than twice that, and the straddle was worth about $8.61 at the close. After hours $60.97 (6:59 PM CT). * Range $59.90 (2:06 PM CT) to $66.69 on the opening print. Thursday's $59.51 low held. Down about 25% on the week (Oct 9 close $82.08). Volume about 94.4M vs Thursday's \~128.2M. * Oct 16 expiry: the $70 calls that traded 69,913 Thursday expired worthless. The $60 puts expired worthless too. The low dipped a dime under the strike at 2:06 PM CT, and the close finished $1.39 above it (69,758 traded today against 32,295 open). Calls 258.6K / puts 232.7K today (Nasdaq). * No new 8-K or offering on EDGAR. Reuters (3:40 PM CT) put the CEO's stock sales since the IPO at nearly $1B, from filings. Borrow 0.3% with 8.1M available (Curved, feed 7:17 PM CT). It broke the $62.72 SSR trigger at 10:54 AM CT, so by our math the restriction carries into Monday; Curved agrees. **$TSLA (Tesla)** * Regular close $354.72, −2.1% vs Thursday's $362.44, and 5.3% under this morning's $374.45 premarket print. After hours $352.46 (6:59 PM CT). * The $362.50 straddle priced about 2.9% ($10.58). The close-to-close move was smaller, 2.1%, so the straddle finished worth about $7.78. The day was wider: $370.58 at the open to $349.33 at 2:06 PM CT, about 5.9% top to bottom, on 61.7M shares, more than double Thursday's. * Oct 16 chain today: calls 1.45M / puts 887K (Thu 487.9K / 317.1K). The $375 calls, 34,013 traded Thursday, never got in the money (117,121 traded today, last $0.01). The $360 put finished about $5.28 in the money (118,411 traded, last $5.05). * No new Tesla filing on EDGAR. A flying demo is not a delivery date, and the stock traded like it knew that. Earnings are Oct 21 (StockAnalysis). **$TFC (Truist)** * Reported before the open: adjusted EPS $1.16 vs Nasdaq's $1.17 forecast; GAAP $0.56 after a $1.4B securities loss (8-K, 5:31 AM CT). Headlines stayed split on beat or miss (The Globe and Mail 11:09 AM CT: miss; AlphaStreet 10:23 AM CT: beat). * Regular close $47.09 (Nasdaq; Yahoo $47.07), +1.1% vs Thursday's $46.57. The $47.50 straddle priced about 4.5% ($2.10). The move was about a quarter of that, and the straddle finished worth about $0.41. * Range $46.89 (8:30 AM CT) to $47.955 (8:38 AM CT). Volume about 14.1M vs Thursday's \~12.6M. * Call / put volume today: 1,453 / 1,753 (Thu 2,166 / 357). The $47.50 put traded 1,653 against 1,750 open and finished $0.41 in the money. **Short interest:** The Sep 30 count is still the newest one we have (VEEA 50,744; NCPL 730,117; TCRT 9,736). The Oct 15 settlement isn't out yet. **What we learned today:** Thursday's chains underpriced CoreWeave and overpriced Truist and Tesla on a close-to-close basis. Alaunos showed how fast a borrow can go from easy to hard when a 1.89M float trades 17 times in a day. Alaunos's fee went from 81% to 678% in one session on a stock with under 10,000 shares short as of Sep 30. Is that new short selling, or lenders pulling their shares? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

The run started minutes after its lead investor's ownership filing hit EDGAR showing about 174 million common shares' worth of convertible preferred behind a 19.99% cap. Netcapital traded roughly 10 times its float Thursday and kept going after hours, and VEEA's available shares fell from 50,000 to 20,000 with the fee stuck at 920.1%. Three names for shares and three for options. The shares side is VEEA, which stays on under our borrow rule; Netcapital, on day two of the late-filing story with volume still many times the float; and Alaunos (TCRT), which went quiet in the regular session and then ran after hours on a pair of ownership filings that spell out how much stock sits behind the merger vote. The options side is CoreWeave into Friday's expiry, with Thursday's bounce mostly gone premarket; Tesla, up about 3.3% premarket after unveiling its new Roadster; and Truist, whose report landed at 5:31 AM CT. Interactive Brokers comes off this morning: its report is out and premarket barely moved. Greenland Energy, Ericsson, and Schwab come off too. **How fresh this is:** Closes are Nasdaq's 3:00 PM CT closing prices for Thursday's regular session; highs, lows, times and volume are Yahoo daily and 1-minute bars, pulled about 3:45 PM CT Thursday. After-hours finishes are Nasdaq's extended-trading page, final for Thursday (data last updated 7:00 PM CT / 8:00 PM ET), pulled about 9:47 PM CT; after-hours percentages are our math against Thursday's close. Filings were rechecked on EDGAR and headlines on Google News RSS about 9:47 to 9:50 PM CT. Borrow is Curved Trading's IBKR feed stamped 3:32 PM CT (16:32 ET), pulled about 3:45 PM CT. Short interest is the Sep 30 settlement (Nasdaq and StockAnalysis); floats are StockAnalysis, pulled about 3:47 PM CT. Option chains are Nasdaq, Oct 16 expiry, Thursday's session and closing quotes, pulled about 3:46 PM CT; open interest on them is the count after Wednesday. Earnings dates are Nasdaq's calendar, pulled about 3:46 PM CT. Friday premarket prices are Nasdaq's pre-market consolidated last trade, page updated 7:57 AM CT and pulled then; premarket percentages are versus Thursday's close. Friday-morning filings were rechecked on EDGAR about 7:58 AM CT and headlines on Google News RSS about 7:59 AM CT. Borrow, short interest and floats were not refreshed this morning. **Shares to watch**  **1) $VEEA: fee still 920.1%, and the locate tightened again** * Closed **$4.84**, down 5.3% from $5.11, on about **471K** shares (Yahoo). That's about **0.30 times** the 1.58M float (StockAnalysis), a second straight day under the float. * It peaked at **$5.17** at 2:39 PM CT, low **$4.65** at 1:20 PM CT (Yahoo 1-minute bars). * Borrow **920.1% with 20.0K** available (Curved, changed 11:02 AM CT / 12:02 ET, feed 3:32 PM CT), against 920.1% with 50.0K Wednesday. The fee held; availability fell. Curved shows it on the threshold list for a fourth day. * **Sep 30 short interest: 50,744**, about 3.2% of the float (Nasdaq; StockAnalysis). * No new filing since the Oct 9 board 8-K, and no new headlines Thursday night (EDGAR and Google News, \~9:47 PM CT). The NovaGen deal is still a non-binding term sheet. * After hours finished at **$4.85**, about flat with the close, on only **9,323** shares. It touched **$5.12** at 4:07 PM CT and **$4.74** at 3:24 PM CT (Nasdaq, final 7:00 PM CT). The early pop to about $5.05 didn't hold. SSR would kick in Friday only if it trades at or below **$4.36** (10% under $4.84, our math). * Premarket Friday: **$4.96** at 7:57 AM CT, up about 2.5%, on only **11,680** shares, with a high of **$5.06** at 6:43 AM CT (Nasdaq). No new filing on EDGAR and no new headlines as of about 7:58 AM CT. *What the numbers don't prove:* Volume under the float for a second day is not the fade rule we use for VEEA. Our standing rule runs on borrow: it comes off when the fee is under 50% for two sessions, availability is over 500K for two sessions, or a new offering shows up. None of those happened. Availability falling from 50,000 to 20,000 is the opposite of loosening. *Off the list if:* availability climbs toward 500K for two sessions, or the fee falls under 50% for two sessions, or a new offering/ATM shows up.  **2) $NCPL (Netcapital): 10 floats of volume, and the Oct 23 clock is still running** * Closed **$1.98**, up 24.5% from $1.59, on about **44.6M** shares (Yahoo), about **10.2 times** its 4.39M float (StockAnalysis). It hit **$2.39** at 8:56 AM CT and **$1.85** at 9:29 AM CT (Yahoo 1-minute bars). * After hours finished at **$2.15**, up about 8.6% from the close, on about **2.79M** shares. It reached **$2.42** at 4:24 PM CT, then gave back about half of that run (Nasdaq, final 7:00 PM CT). Nasdaq's own percentage on that page is versus Wednesday's close; ours is versus Thursday's. * Wednesday's 8-K still stands (EDGAR): it regained Nasdaq's $1.00 minimum bid rule, but its annual report (year ended Apr 30) and July-quarter report are still late. Its plan to fix that is due to Nasdaq by **Oct 23**. It hired a new auditor on Oct 8. Law-firm notices of a securities class action kept hitting the wires into Thursday evening, including Robbins LLP at 6:58 PM CT and Rosen at 7:44 PM CT (GlobeNewswire headlines on Google News). No new company filing Thursday night (EDGAR, \~9:47 PM CT), and none as of about 7:58 AM CT Friday. * Premarket Friday: **$2.52** at 7:57 AM CT, up about 27% from Thursday's close, on about **10.1M** shares, already about 2.3 times the float before the open, with a high of **$2.74** at 7:29 AM CT (Nasdaq). * Borrow **476.5% with 20.0K** available (Curved; page stamp still references Oct 14 for the locate line, feed board 3:32 PM CT). Curved shows it on the threshold list for 14 days. **Sep 30 short interest: 730,117**, about 16.6% of the float (Nasdaq; StockAnalysis). * No listed options on Nasdaq's chain. We first listed NCPL on Oct 12 at $1.44. *What the numbers don't prove:* Ten floats of volume is real demand or real churn. It does not fix a late 10-K. The listing risk that matters is still the Oct 23 plan, not the bid-price rule they already cleared. *Off the list if:* volume falls back under the 4.39M float and stays there, or there's no word on the Oct 23 plan as the date gets closer.  **3) $TCRT (Alaunos): up 31% after hours as the ownership filings landed** * Closed **$2.18**, up 5.3% from $2.07, on about **5.92M** shares (Yahoo), about **3.1 times** its 1.89M float (StockAnalysis). Regular-session high **$2.39** at 9:39 AM CT, low **$1.80** at 9:15 AM CT (Yahoo 1-minute bars). That is a big step down from Wednesday's 67.8M shares. * After hours finished at **$2.85**, up about 31% from the close, on about **12.3M** shares, roughly 6.5 times the float and about twice the regular session. The high was **$3.09** at 3:30 PM CT; the low **$2.165** at 3:01 PM CT (Nasdaq, final 7:00 PM CT). * **What hit EDGAR Thursday:** Fairmount, the lead investor, filed its first Schedule 13D at 3:01 PM CT and a Form 3 at 3:05 PM CT. It owns 687,789 common shares outright plus Series B and C convertible preferred worth about **174.3M** common shares on the Form 3 (our sum), held back by a 19.99% ownership cap. That compares with 3.44M shares outstanding on Sep 30. Fairmount's Peter Harwin sits on the board. * At 6:55 PM CT, WaterMill Asset Management and director Robert Postma filed a 13D/A: the holders of the old Series A preferred agreed to convert, vote for the merger proposals, and then be bought out for about **$1.6M** in cash if holders approve before February 2027. Officers and directors who stay on are under a 180-day lock-up that runs longer if the resale registration isn't effective by then (EDGAR; Stock Titan headline 6:55 PM CT). * Borrow **81.2% with 90.0K** available (Curved, pulled \~3:45 PM CT). **Sep 30 short interest: 9,736**, about 0.5% of the float (StockAnalysis). This is not a high-short-interest name on the latest settlement. * None of Thursday's filings is the resale registration for the private-placement investors (EDGAR, \~9:47 PM CT). That question, which we named Wednesday, still stands. We first listed TCRT on Oct 13 at $1.86; the high since then is still Wednesday's **$4.37**. * Premarket Friday: **$2.81** at 7:57 AM CT, up about 29% from the close, on about **12.1M** shares, roughly 6.4 times the float before the open. The high was **$3.19** at 6:02 AM CT (Nasdaq). No new filing since the 13D/A as of about 7:58 AM CT (EDGAR). Friday-morning headlines (StocksToTrade, Benzinga's pre-market movers list) point back to the Oct 13 Velaris deal; we found no new filing behind them. *What the numbers don't prove:* The run started within minutes of the Fairmount filing, but timing is not cause, and the filing adds no new shares; it puts the existing ones on the record. Votes lined up for the conversion make the 174 million more likely to arrive, not less. A 31% after-hours move with almost no short interest is buyers, not trapped shorts. *Off the list if:* after-hours fades and Friday's regular volume can't hold above the float, or a resale registration goes effective and supply shows up in size. **Options to watch**  **4) $CRWV (CoreWeave): the bounce, the $70 calls, and Friday's expiry** * Closed **$69.69**, up 5.9% from $65.78, on about **128.2M** shares (Yahoo), after a low of **$59.51** at 8:55 AM CT and a high of **$69.76** near the close (Yahoo 1-minute bars). Wednesday's close was $65.78 after a

It closed up 47% after touching $7.09, gave back about 12% after hours, and the borrow fee went up instead of down. The other four were quiet on price, but two of them put more shares on the calendar: TNON's warrant resale prospectus went final and MEDS filed to register about 34.5M resale shares. **How fresh this is:** Regular closes (3 PM CT), ranges and volume are from StockAnalysis and Nasdaq. After-hours prices are the last trades between about 6:20 and 6:59 PM CT on Nasdaq and StockAnalysis. Borrow and shares available are from Curved Trading's IBKR feed as of 7:17 PM CT. Filings are from EDGAR, checked about 7:25 PM CT. Short interest is still the Sep 15 settlement. After-hours prints are thin, so read them as a hint and not a price. --- **$VEEA: up 47%, and the borrow got more expensive** * Closed at **$5.70**, up 47.3% from Thursday's $3.87. It opened at $5.54 and ran as high as **$7.09** before closing about 20% off the high. The low was $5.29. * After hours it last traded **$5.01** at 6:53 PM CT on Nasdaq, down 12.1% from the close. StockAnalysis had $4.81 at 6:20 PM CT. * Volume was about **83.5M** shares on the day, including premarket, against about 694K Thursday. That is more than 50 times the 1.58M float StockAnalysis lists. * Borrow is **844.7%** with **15.0K** shares available, last changed at 7:02 PM CT. Thursday evening it was 766.3% with 5.0K. * New filing: an **8-K** at 3:05 PM CT. Director Helder Antunes resigned from the board on Oct 8 (he stays on as EVP and Chief Revenue Officer, and the filing says there was no disagreement), and the board shrank to five. Nothing on NovaGen. There's still no Item 1.01 definitive agreement on file. * The short-sale restriction was on today, carried from Thursday's drop. Today's low was above Thursday's close, so nothing new triggered it. * VEEA showed up on Nasdaq's own Reg SHO threshold file dated Oct 8. Today's file wasn't posted when we checked. * Fade check: the fee is far above 50%, availability is far under 500K, and there's no new offering. Not fading. A stock that runs 83% intraday on 50 times its float usually loosens the locate. This one did the opposite. Lendable shares went from 5K to 15K, which is still almost nothing, and the fee went up 78 points. The shorts paid more to stay in, and the stock still gave back about 40% of its intraday run by the close. **$TNON** * Closed at **$3.41**, down 0.9% from $3.44, in a $3.37 to $3.52 range. After hours: **$3.36** at 6:57 PM CT. * Volume was about **134K** shares, against about 110K Thursday. * Borrow is unchanged at **315.7%**, with available down to **100.0K** from 150K, last changed at 12:47 PM CT. * New filings: a final **424B3** resale prospectus at 3:20 PM CT for the **858,269** shares behind the Series B warrants struck at **$5.02**, plus a Form 3 at 3:01 PM CT. The warrant shares are now registered to sell. They only matter if the stock gets back above $5.02, and at $3.41 that's about 47% away. **$MEDS** * Closed at **$2.96**, down 12.9% from $3.40, in a $2.95 to $3.30 range. After hours: **$2.99** at 6:59 PM CT. * Volume was about **437K** shares, against about 14.0M Thursday. * Borrow is unchanged at **440.0%** with **15.0K** available. Curved shows it last changed Thursday. * Still on Nasdaq's Reg SHO threshold file dated Oct 8. * New filing: an **S-1/A** at 4:20 PM CT registering the resale of up to **34,462,057** shares. That's about 21.3M from converting the May 2026 notes, about 8.3M from the PIPE warrants, about 3.6M from placement-agent warrants, and about 1.3M already issued. StockAnalysis counts **3.06M** shares outstanding. It's a pre-effective amendment, so nothing can sell under it yet. There's still no definitive 14C. Thursday's 14M-share pop gave back most of its gain, and then the company filed paperwork for roughly eleven times its current share count. That's not what a squeeze candidate's calendar looks like. **$BTCT** * Closed at **$1.01**, down 3.8% from $1.05, in a $1.00 to $1.06 range. After hours: **$1.03** at 6:56 PM CT. * Volume was about **586K** shares, against about 554K Thursday. * Borrow eased to **207.6%** with **1.0M** shares available, last changed at 10:47 AM CT. Thursday it was 211.4% with 900K. * No new filings. The last was the Sep 18 resale prospectus. Availability grew again, to a million shares. That's the slow version of coming off the board. **$BMGL** * Closed at **$3.75**, up 4.2% from $3.60, in a $3.43 to $3.88 range. After hours: **$3.72** at 6:55 PM CT. * Volume was about **105K** shares, against about 127K Thursday. * Borrow ticked up to **102.0%** with **35.0K** available, last changed at 1:47 PM CT. * New filing: a **6-K** at 5:10 AM CT that repeats the deal terms. That's 6,000,000 units at $1.33, about $7.98M gross and about $7.28M net, with common warrants that can be exercised on a zero-cash basis for another 6,000,000 shares. We didn't find a closing notice on EDGAR by 7:25 PM CT, so we can't confirm the units delivered today. The stock held well above a $1.33 deal price that could add up to 12M shares to a company with about 1.58M outstanding. Holding up doesn't make that supply go away. --- **Short interest:** The Sep 30 short interest isn't out yet in our sources. All five figures above are still the Sep 15 count. **Options:** None of the five has listed options on Nasdaq's chain, rechecked at about 7:22 PM CT. **What we learned today:** Volume and borrow can move in opposite directions. VEEA traded more than 50 times its float, and lendable shares stayed tiny while the fee went up. Meanwhile, the share-count story got worse on the other names: TNON's warrant shares are now registered to sell, and MEDS filed to register about 34.5M more. VEEA closed up 47% with only 15K shares to lend, and it still gave back about 12% after hours. Does it stay on Monday's board, and which of the other four comes off? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Post is by: Patriot_tech and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/Squeeze_em/comments/1x0q7kr/thursday_watchlist_oct_8_veea_tnon_meds_btct_bmgl/ Nothing on our squeeze screen scored 3 of 4 on Wednesday, so this is a board of near-misses, and we're calling them that. VEEA stays on under our standing update. TNON, BTCT and BMGL are new, and each one has registered stock or warrants sitting behind the short interest. MEDS stays from yesterday. APUS, IPDN and ONDS come off: all three still score 1 of 4. **How fresh this is:** Closes, ranges and volume are Wednesday's regular session, 3 PM CT close (Nasdaq, Yahoo). After-hours prices are the after-hours close, ~7:00 PM CT, from Nasdaq and StockAnalysis. After-hours volume is a rough figure: Nasdaq's full-day total minus Yahoo's regular-session count. Borrow and shares available are Curved Trading's IBKR feed as of 7:32 PM CT. Short interest is still the Sep 15 settlement. The Sep 30 numbers still weren't out on StockAnalysis or Nasdaq at 7:40 PM CT. Filings are from EDGAR, rechecked at about 7:55 AM CT Thursday, with nothing new overnight on any of the five. **Premarket lines** are Nasdaq's last premarket trade as of about 7:53 AM CT Thursday, and **borrow** was refreshed from Curved's 7:47 AM CT feed. Premarket volume is thin, so recheck everything at the open. **Squeeze screen:** We score four things: short interest of at least 20% of float, borrow of at least 50%, utilization of at least 90%, and a dated catalyst inside two weeks. We don't have a utilization figure we can verify, so the best possible score is 3. This time we went past Curved's top-50 borrow board and also checked borrow on all 100 names on StockAnalysis's most-shorted list, plus Curved's fee-spike and mover lists. Five names had both the crowd and the fee, on numbers we trust. None had a date on the calendar. Three more (MGN, AGRZ, WETO) looked 50%+ short on a screener and came apart in the filings: two reverse splits landed after the Sep 15 count, and one share count is out of date. --- **1) $VEEA: down again, on a quarter of Tuesday's volume** * Closed **$4.71**, down 4.7% from Tuesday's **$4.94**, in a range of $4.55 to $4.98. That's also 3% to 4% under Tuesday's after-hours close of $4.86 to $4.89. * About **473K** shares traded in the regular session, against roughly 1.8M Tuesday and 66.9M Monday. * After hours: **$4.63 to $4.66** at the after-hours close, ~7:00 PM CT, depending on the feed (Nasdaq vs. StockAnalysis), so down 1.1% to 1.7% from the regular close, on roughly **10K** shares. No filings or news after the bell. * Borrow is **783.2%** with **55K** available after the bell (last changed 5:17 PM CT). At the regular close it was 799.4% with 35K. Tuesday's regular close was 810.9% with 30K, and Wednesday morning showed 803.3% with 25K. Supply more than doubled in a day, which is worth watching. * Short interest **1.22M** at Sep 15, about 80% of the **1.52M** float (StockAnalysis). Days to cover 0.11. * No new filings since Tuesday's 4:25 PM CT 8-K, which put a director on the audit committee. NovaGen is still a non-binding term sheet, with no definitive agreement or vote date on EDGAR. Curved still flags the Aug 13 424B5 ($75M) as an ATM, with usage not broken out. * SSR was on Wednesday, carried over from Tuesday. Wednesday's low was 7.9% under Tuesday's close, short of Rule 201's 10% trigger, so the restriction should be off Thursday. Check your platform's flag. * Premarket: **$4.38**, down 7.0% from the regular close, on about **29K** shares by 7:53 AM CT. Borrow still **783.2%**, with availability up again to **60K** as of 7:47 AM CT. Curved still shows SSR on, so check your platform's flag before you trust our math on Rule 201. * Fade check: the fee is far above 50%, availability is far under 500K even after doubling, and there's no new offering. Not fading. * Screen: short interest 80.01% of float, borrow 783.2%, utilization not in our notes, no dated catalyst inside two weeks (earnings estimated Nov 13). 2 of 4. *What the numbers don't prove:* Two straight down days with the fee near 800%. The borrow says shorting is still hard. It doesn't say anyone is losing sleep over it. *What takes it off the board:* The fee drops under 50%, or more than 500K shares show up to lend, two sessions running. A new offering that supplies the shorts does it in one. **2) $TNON (Tenon Medical): the screener says 87% short, the S-3 says closer to 20%** * Closed **$3.50**, down 5.8% from **$3.715**, in a range of $3.38 to $3.64, on about **354K** shares (423K Tuesday). * After hours: **$3.44** at the after-hours close, ~7:00 PM CT, on both Nasdaq and StockAnalysis, down 1.7% from the regular close, on roughly **2K** shares. No filings or news after the bell. * Borrow is **335.5%** with **75K** available (last changed 4:47 PM CT). Tuesday's close was 330.7% with 100K. * Short interest **539,306** at Sep 15. StockAnalysis shows that as 86.87% of a 620,827-share float. The S-3 filed Oct 5 counts **2,688,735** shares outstanding as of Oct 1. Float can't be bigger than that, so the short interest is at least about 20% of float. That still clears our bar, barely. The 1-for-35 reverse split was Aug 10, before the count, so the split isn't the problem. The new shares are. * That S-3 registers the resale of **858,269** shares from Series B warrants struck at **$5.02**, issued in a Sep 11 warrant inducement. * After Tuesday's close the company announced the full commercial launch of its SImmetry+ SI joint screw. There's no date attached to anything after that. * Premarket: **$3.46**, down 1.1% from the regular close, on about **4K** shares by 7:46 AM CT. Borrow still **335.5%** with **100K** available as of 7:47 AM CT. * Screen: short interest at least 20% of float, borrow 335.5%, utilization not in our notes, no dated catalyst inside two weeks (earnings estimated Nov 12). 2 of 4. *What the numbers don't prove:* That 87% figure is the old share count talking. Run the same short interest against the new count and the percentage drops by about three-quarters. *What takes it off the board:* The Sep 30 short interest comes in under 20% of the new share count, or the stock climbs through $5.02 and those warrant shares show up. **3) $MEDS (DataMeds AI): fourth straight down close, and the borrow loosened** * Closed **$2.88**, down 6.2% from **$3.07**, in a range of $2.84 to $3.13, on about **351K** shares (about 640K Tuesday). It closed at $4.06 on Oct 1. * After hours: about **$2.87** at the after-hours close, ~7:00 PM CT (StockAnalysis), down 0.3% from the regular close. After-hours volume is not in our notes: Nasdaq's quote didn't update and StockAnalysis's day total runs below the regular session. No filings or news after the bell. * Borrow is **440.0%** with **20K** available (last changed 11:47 AM CT), down from 533.1% with 8K Wednesday morning. * It's on Nasdaq's Reg SHO threshold list in the Oct 6 file, the latest one posted. Curved counts 11 days. Curved showed SSR on Wednesday too. Wednesday's low was 7.5% under the prior close, so no fresh trigger. * Float **1.27M**, short interest **430,628** at Sep 15 (StockAnalysis). * No filings since Sep 17. The Aug 31 PRE 14C (written-consent actions) still has no definitive 14C behind it, so there's no effective date to put on the calendar. * Premarket: **$3.10**, up 7.6% from the regular close, on about **6.7M** shares by 7:53 AM CT, per Nasdaq. That's more than five times the float, and we found no filing or news behind it. Borrow still **440.0%**, with availability down to **15K** as of 7:47 AM CT. * Screen: short interest 33.85% of float, borrow 440.0%, utilization not in our notes, no dated catalyst inside two weeks (earnings estimated Nov 19). 2 of 4. *What the numbers don't prove:* The fee fell and supply more than doubled while the stock kept sliding. That looks like shorts getting comfortable, not cornered. *What takes it off the board:* Availability keeps climbing, or the fee slips under 50%. **4) $BTCT (BTC Digital): plenty of shorts, plenty of stock to borrow** * Closed **$1.08**, down 3.6% from **$1.12**, in a range of $1.05 to $1.10, on about **534K** shares (656K Tuesday). * After hours: about **$1.09** at the after-hours close, ~7:00 PM CT (StockAnalysis), up about 1% from the regular close, on roughly **13K** shares. No filings after the bell. * Borrow is **253.5%** with **1.2M** shares available (last changed 1:32 PM CT). Tuesday's close was 296.3% with 1.0M. * Short interest **4.15M** at Sep 15, 36.50% of an **11.37M** float (StockAnalysis). Days to cover 0.14. * A resale prospectus filed Sep 18 covers up to **18,421,050** shares, **12,280,700** of them from common warrants, against **11,800,567** shares outstanding before it. Fully exercised, the count goes to about **30.2M**. * No filings since Sep 18. * Premarket: **$1.07**, down 0.9% from the regular close, on about **92K** shares by 7:44 AM CT. Borrow still **253.5%**, but availability dropped to **750K** from 1.2M as of 7:47 AM CT. * Screen: short interest 36.50% of float, borrow 253.5%, utilization not in our notes, no dated catalyst inside two weeks (earnings estimated Nov 11). 2 of 4. *What the numbers don't prove:* A big fee means very little when 1.2 million shares were sitting there to borrow last night. That's about a tenth of the company. This morning's 750K is still plenty. *What takes it off the board:* Availability keeps growing, or the fee follows it down under 50%. **5) $BMGL (Basel Medical Group): an offering that's effective but hasn't priced** * Closed **$3.28**, down 1.5% from **$3.33**, in a range of $3.18 to $3.28, on about **12.5K** shares. It's thin. * After hours: one print at **$3.25** around 6:30 PM CT (StockAnalysis), down 0.9%, on too few shares to move the day's total. No filings or news after the bell. * Borrow is **98.5%** with **45K** available (last changed 8:32 AM CT). Tuesday's close was 96.3%. * Short interest **159,585** at

My ave buy last cycle was 31k - I sold 75% above 100k but I held on to the last stack and eventually sold at 64k. It hurt but you cant have regrets, you learn and have to take whatever positives you can. It literally is just money and despite what you feel or others tell you, it really doesnt matter. Find peace and rebuild for next cycle. Write your feelings in a journal and revisit. Make a plan and stick to it. What I've learnt with volatile assets is they will always be lower and always be higher. Once you have a plan, stay off social media (CT, discord, Reddit) - set certain price targets and wait for the alerts to hit. Do nothing in between.

This sub has always been cancer, it's never been a good place for discussion, never been a good place for alpha, never been a good place for research. People here are generally *substantially* dumber than the average person on CT. It's just not sustainable to have a community whose content curation is done by popular vote when you have such varying opinions within that community. So it doesn't really matter who is wrong or right, because people don't upvote and downvote based on that. Post anything remotely positive about Cardano or Nano or Algorand or Loopring, and it would get upvoted to the top immediately. Meanwhile the coins that outperformed the market, like SOL in 2022-2024, were vehemently hated for reasons that were either patently false or were obviously going to become false. "It's only pumping for the FTX unlocks", "All the usage is fake", "Institutions won't use SOL", "It had downtime!", "It's only memes!" but anyone with a brain and the ability to do real due diligence could see how wrong all of those were or would become. Or HYPE, an extremely successful project, which used no VC money and airdropped much of the supply. This sub has a hate-boner for VCs, which would make you think HYPE would've been this sub's darling... but no. I don't even think many people here know about it. And then discovery or discussion on any new project is completely worthless here because everyone just assumes it's a cashgrab or scam without doing any critical thinking. If you use this sub, stop, and find something else. [Look into researching the way I recommend here.](np://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1h7e21t/35yo_new_to_cc/m0kzmqp/)

We're in a fine place. I'm actually very unattached to the market now and would be looking very much forward to more large market drawdowns. Objectively, this so-called "bear market" has been very mild compared to cycles past. I'm not into Ondo but if you really have a good reason to believe it's going to do extremely well, you should DCA. Been here for a decade. This is not the place to tell people that you're into Solana -- people are too clueless. I said this years ago but nothing has changed here pretty much: [https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1gamlcy/comment/ltn0jki/](https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/1gamlcy/comment/ltn0jki/) Luck is certainly a thing, but your alpha is on crypto twitter and that hasn't changed. Keep buying with every agonizing low and sell at every new breaking high. I never trade on leverage. Long-drawn cycles are my bread and butter, and I sit on my ass for months or years. But you need to get the narratives right, and this place has always had a terrible track record for that. So many commenters lack the necessary information and are too emotional, hold silly, outdated, or uninformed biases, or end up holding coins that simply have no chance to ever pump reasonably again. Also, I have no plans of ever truly exiting the market. I've made my peace with that. I have no ability to catch the highest highs or the lowest of lows. The only thing I can manage reasonably is risk. Most important of all, you need ammo. If you can't buy the dip, it'll make things exponentially harder. Make sure to do everything you can to never put yourself in that situation. Manage risks, don't stake or lend out all your stables. The biggest purpose of your stablecoins is to buy cheap coins, not to earn 3-5% per annum. With every monstrous dip, the potential for return becomes so much bigger. Always do your best to be aware of what's happening in the market and which assets actually have the biggest hype, narratives, and promise. Time lines are never always exactly the same for each coin. The narratives change every cycle. It's not that hard to know what's up if you try. Above everything else, stay objective and never be a maxi. For example, there are some truly old coins in the top 10 that I feel don't deserve to be there, and only pump because of certain reasons. I will never turn down an opportunity to make a good long-term trade off that. Since I'm a horrible daytrader, I make it up by setting solid rules, apart from setting rigid buy and sell points. I set a datum point for each coin and sell 20% of all held coins at every 25% price increase, and buy a calculated portion back with every 30-40% drawdown -- subject to the coin's MC, available liquidity, and perceived volatility. Assets that have made me the most in the last few months: HYPE (now the biggest portion of my porfolio, though I didn't intend for it to be), ZEC, BP (thanks entirely to CT). My preference is to buy with growing USD size every time the price dips further into the abyss. I do have a cut-off, where the buying simply stops, and if the price ever gets there, one would have to think - WTF happened to make it actually go that low. The 20-100x's were already made. I'd be happy with doing much less in the future. My YOLO days were back in the previous decade. There's no place for that now, and hopefully ever in the future. If an asset fails the CT narrative and consistently fails to produce results in a reasonably expected time frame when it's supposed to pump along with other assets, it may be time to consider dropping that one.

These asshats definitely got paid to promote him too, especially Farokh with his interview. I also have no doubt that one of the CT KOLs is the intern running the White House's X account.

Dealer_Vast

tbh the only times I caught those moves cleanly were when I was already watching a coin for volume expansion, not chasing it after it hit CT. once it's already +25% in a day, my experience is the next trade is usually someone else's exit liquidity

International-Ad4555

Brother, CT is dead, there’s no community, nobody knows or cares what this tech does or wants to do anymore, and nobody trusts it. No wonder nobodies here!

AttemptKitchen

Everyone in CT has been talking about the 4 years cycle since months ago. in 2022 most people didn't believe in the 4 years cycle and said that the Bear Market was caused because macro economics, rate hikes, stocks dumping etc. also black swan events like TerraLuna and FTX collapse. But this time around everyone is aware of it because the 4 years cycle is the only reason they given to this Bear Market.

KAST and EtherFi get overlooked because they don't have a token to stake or a tier system to chase which means nothing to argue about on CT and both run on Rain's infrastructure so the card works like a normal debit card anywhere Visa is accepted and the spend comes straight from a stablecoin balance on every swipe.

This is exactly why I’m skeptical when people treat “smart money vs retail” as a guaranteed signal. A lot of whale flow is positioning, hedging, ETF arbitrage, treasury management, or simply de-risking after a huge run. But the sentiment/funding combo does matter because crowded positioning creates fragile markets. What’s interesting is how fast these narrative shifts now get reflected in prediction markets. On leveraged prediction platforms I’ve been watching, traders were already pricing higher probability of a short-term BTC pullback before the ETF outflow headlines fully spread across CT. That’s the part I find fascinating: event traders are increasingly front-running sentiment reversals instead of reacting after price dumps. The danger is when everyone interprets the same on-chain data the same way. That’s basically reflexivity. Retail sees bullish sentiment and piles in. Whales see crowded longs and reduce exposure. Then leverage amplifies the move once momentum flips. I learned that the hard way trading leveraged prediction events earlier this year. A crowded narrative can stay irrational longer than expected, but once positioning unwinds, it unwinds violently. The people surviving long-term are usually the ones managing risk and sizing correctly, not the ones with the loudest conviction.

You’re not wrong that earlier alt cycles had genuine excitement around new technology narratives, but the reason those narratives exploded so hard was because of the market structure and liquidity environment at the time. Back then crypto was far smaller, far more reflexive and almost entirely retail-driven. A handful of influential accounts and communities could collectively manufacture momentum because social media algorithms were different, there were far fewer tokens competing for attention, and capital actually moved on-chain through order books rather than disappearing into ETFs, custodians and institutional wrappers. I was chronically online in crypto for years and watched this transition happen in real time. Projects used to hand influencers massive unlocked allocations or pay them directly in BTC/stables because one coordinated push across CT genuinely could move price. Twitter was actually social media back then, not an engagement maximised news machine flooded with bots, AI slop and recycled narratives. Communities felt smaller and more organic so hype spread much easier and traders would front-run one another trying to catch the next run. That reflexive behaviour is basically what people later labelled “alt season”. The tech narratives mattered, but they mattered inside an environment where liquidity and psychology amplified everything exponentially. Now retail attention is fragmented, most engagement is fake or botted, MEV and automation dominate flows, and institutions absorb huge amounts of liquidity through ETFs and custodial products instead of letting it cascade through the alt market. At the same time influencers lost most of their actual power, which is why projects no longer pay them the insane money they once did. A lot of KOL campaigns today are basically just affiliate marketing wrapped in fake engagement. In many cases the influencer is now the exit liquidity rather than the guy farming the exit liquidity.

CT is a cesspool I left that app months ago

ConsciousSkyy

It’s crazy seeing CT call the recent capitulation of its strongest eth believers as a “bottom signal” Maybe they’re right in the short term but longer term the picture doesn’t look good. Feels like everyone is trying to dump their bag and has lost faith. I don’t blame them

I think the real difference this cycle is how fast sentiment gets manufactured online. One green week and CT turns into “supercycle” mode again.

FriendsMade_MeDoIt

I’m kinda similar honestly. Me and a few friends started comparing notes with AI after realizing we were all doomscrolling the same news for hours and still ending up with different takes lol. Biggest use for me now is filtering. I’ll throw in a bunch of sentiment posts, news, random CT drama, and ask it what actually matters for price vs what’s just engagement farming. Helps cut the noise a ton. Also been using it to sanity check position sizing because group chats can make everyone way too confident way too fast. AI feels weirdly useful as the one “friend” not getting emotional during a pump.

Serenity_Williamsa

i think the real answer is matching custody model to user capability. hardcore multisig + distributed backups sounds cool on CT until somebody’s spouse inherits a steel plate and zero clue what BIP39 means 😭

rekkktttt

CT is flooded with it too. At least it's easy to spot.

MartinEdge42

the 'market conditions' framing is mostly cover for the fact that hardware wallet TAM is shrinking. retail moved to exchange custody + multisig, institutions use qualified custodians, and CT-savvy users moved to seedless mpc wallets. ledger has a clear product but its addressable market peaked 2-3 years ago

Necessary-Swan-5764

Actually pretty intresting idea. Most onchain dashboards are overloaded af or delayed. If this really stays under 10 sec latency with clean data, traders gonna use it. Especially for finding wallets before CT starts screaming about them.

Capable-Hedgehog291

Classic contrarian signal. When CT flips universally bullish, it's usually time to reduce size, not chase.

ledgerthrowaway12345

CT cabal shill. New token same shit.

cashflashmil

Rotation between a few things depending on what I need. Glassnode for on-chain - exchange outflows, MVRV, long-term holder supply. When price is doing something weird, on-chain usually explains why before CT does. DefiLlama for anything DeFi related. TVL movements across chains are a cleaner signal than most people realize. Arkham when I want to track where big money is actually moving. Underused by most retail. But the one that changed my routine the most is a newsletter - Web Snack ( [websnack.org](http://websnack.org) ). Short weekly digest, crypto + macro, no ads, no shilling. I stopped spending 2 hours a day scrolling after I found something that just gives me the relevant stuff in 5 minutes. For research and context it's become as essential as any app. The real stack isn't one tool - it's data layer ( Glassnode/DefiLlama ) + intel layer ( Arkham ) + context layer ( a good newsletter ). Most people have the first two and skip the third.

Well written. Enjoyed the read. I also probably know you from Crossmint or CT but can't exactly nail down who you are 💀

It was pumping alongside the crypto market. US–Iran sissyfire was the main catalyst, but ZEC outperformed crypto markets despite low volumes (a small number of traders pumping the markets). Then came Robinhood on April 23, so I am guessing insiders and their girlfriends had an idea about its relevance. The May 5 announcement by Multicoin's dude fired this rally more than anything. Yes, it's well orchestrated, and now every CT bull is reposting the same thing you did. ZEC shielded addresses were rallying even during the bear market. doesn't change anything when it comes to spot demand. I am not bearish per se. But I am also not a fan of assets flying 200% in a month outta nowhere. This actually led to a top in November 2021: ZEC pumped over 200% in two months or something, followed by a 95% crash lol. My friends. Avoid leverage. keep holding. )

A lot better than most CT (or are they called CX now due to the name change of the platform?)

It’s nice to see institutions adopt crypto but for us who have been here since the beginning it’s hard not to wonder of crypto is just becoming an add on for tradfi - it’s easier for them especially now since CT is less present on social media… it seems like a ghost town online but irl I’m seeing more and more normies get into crypto, not for the values or the technology but just as a way to get rich Quick

I've used it for crypto as well, but its such a cesspool. The only thing its good for is sentiment, and thats 99.9% fake, so you have to see if theres legitimate money moving around in the circles that the bots and shills are spamming. Reddit is generally way too late, CT is way too fake, there has to be a goldilocks somewhere. At least you can tell when its time to sell a project when reddit is posting about it and tell not to buy something when CT is gargling its gonads.

VitaminGrin

Cause most of CT is bots, shills and scams. This isn’t hard to understand.

You can tell most people here don't use X because this shouldn't be that surprising. Rarely are you going to go out of your way to mute something outside of your interests unless it's unavoidable. Crypto content also isn't as widely relevant as the other topics to really get served to people's algos, so I gotta imagine most of this muting comes from crypto people. So I think it makes sense, CT is pretty popular and also divisive, so you're going to have a lot of crypto people who also mute a lot of other crypto people. Seems like a non-story.

This following is from AI.... "Based on 2025 and early 2026 reports analyzing congressional stock disclosures, **Nancy Pelosi** (D-CA) has consistently been ranked among the top beneficiaries of stock trading in Congress, with a 2025 report highlighting a 16,930% profit over 37 years. While she is frequently cited for her, or her husband's, high-performing tech stocks (such as Nvidia), other members have recently outpaced her in annual percentage gains.  **Top Performers and Traders in Recent Reports (2025–2026)** * **Rep. Warren Davidson (R-OH):** Reported the highest returns in 2025 at 78.8%, largely due to GE and GE Vernova stock. * **Rep. Donald Norcross (D-NJ):** Saw a \~71% gain in 2025 by holding Cigna and Toronto-Dominion Bank. * **Rep. David Rouzer (R-NC):** Ranked high in 2024 for a 149% increase in his portfolio. * **Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT):** Reported making $80 million in stock trades in 2025. * **Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-NJ):** Highlighted as one of the most active traders, with $91 million in transaction volume in 2025." So the moral of the story is, follow certain congressional members and make similar trades. John Neely Kennedy (Senator from Louisiana) introduced a bill that would ban congressional members from insider trading, but it was voted down.

Token unlock overhang is the cleanest red flag because it creates predictable sell pressure even if the product story sounds good. A project can look clean on CT, have decent UI, even have users, but if circulating supply is tiny and the next 6 to 12 months unlock a huge chunk to team and private rounds expect large sell pressure. If float is 10% and the story is already fully marketed, retail is usually the exit liquidity.

I built a pipeline that tracks social engagement across about 10 platforms and scores each asset by how abnormal the current attention is relative to its own baseline. Basically a Z-score for social buzz. That filters out the constant BTC/ETH noise and surfaces stuff that's actually spiking in a statistically meaningful way. The other thing that helped was finding a second data source that scores assets independently. When two systems that don't share data both flag the same coin at the same time, that's a much stronger signal than either one alone. Took me about six months to build but now I spend maybe 20 minutes a morning reviewing what it flagged overnight instead of scrolling CT for hours.

You’ve got the Head of Product essentially calling the "Crypto Twitter" (CT) culture a cesspool of bots and engagement farming, yet every new project still treats X like the Holy Grail of marketing. In the last few weeks, he’s basically declared war on Crypto: ·       **The "Kill Switch":** New accounts that mention crypto for the first time are now "auto-locked" for identity verification. ·       **The "80% Bot" Claim:** Bier claims 80% of interactions on crypto accounts are fake. ·       **The Anti-Hype Policy:** Revoking API access for "InfoFi" apps and tightening the screws on prediction markets like Polymarket. Bier says he’s "sanitizing" the platform, but from where I’m standing, it feels like they’re just locking out authentic voices while the sophisticated bot farms—the ones he claims to hate—are the only ones with the resources to bypass his new hurdles. **My question for the sub:** If this is X's official stance—that our community is fundamentally "spammy" and "inauthentic"—why are crypto projects still pouring millions into X ads and making it their primary home? Are we just stuck in a toxic relationship because of the "network effect," or is there a better trail we should be riding?

Any degen would trust if it meant it'll be making money for them. Tons of them available rn on CT tho.

cavolfiorebianco

worst scam since SBF and it was targeted to poor people. ZachXBT made a report about this as well and found that most individual bag holders are Koreans, this is due to the fact that people at Tools For Humanity purposely listed the coin in Korea without publishing a translated white paper for a long time and since Koreans mostly don't know English they fell for it (they did publish every marketing in Koreans before the white paper as well)... you can find a lot of the on CT complaining or shilling this over and over... in the end worldcoin is just a low float high FDV rugpull scheme with no value what so ever, it is beyond me how Atlman gives his name to this just cause he was friend with Blania... I suspect this goes way back and includes those so called "angel investments" schemes as well... honestly hope they all see jail with next admin.

Ngl the way this is framed sounds like a get-rich-quick mindset, and that's exactly how most people lose money in crypto. By chasing shinny coins, you might become their exit liquidity. That said, if you want to find coins early with a real process: 1. Watch on-chain activity, not social media promos. Use onchain trading analytics tools like GeckoTerminal's trending pools to surface tokens by actual trading volume, not X/Twitter hype or paid promotions. By the time something's trending on CT, the best entries are usually gone. 2. Follow smart money. Again, GeckoTerminal's Traders tab shows which wallets profited most on any given token. Find wallets that are consistently right across multiple tokens, then monitor what they buy next. That's a repeatable process, "find the coin that suddenly explodes" isn't. 3. Safety first, always. Check security score, token distribution, and LP lock before buying anything. 90% of new tokens will go to zero. Therefore the skill isn't finding the winner, it's avoiding the 9 losers. The people who actually make consistent money in crypto aren't finding coins that "suddenly" pump. They have a process, they manage risk, and they accept that most of their picks won't be home runs.

RougeRavagePart

Honestly if you have to ask Reddit, you probably shouldn’t ape in heavy. Ethena’s an interesting idea, but it’s still very new, has a lot of smart contract and depeg/hedging risk, and the whole yield angle depends on market conditions staying friendly. It’s not the same as buying plain ETH. If you’re curious, treat it like a degen side bet: small amount you’re fine losing, spread across a few plays, and don’t chase the APY screenshots on CT. If you don’t fully get how it works, it’s safer to sit it out.

InvestAISavvy

Most of what you're seeing with "early" token catches falls into a few categories, and they're not all equal: **On-chain monitoring** — watching new contract deployments, liquidity pool creation events, and wallet clustering. This is the fastest but also the noisiest. You'll catch tokens within minutes of launch but 95%+ are rugs or dead on arrival. The signal-to-noise ratio is brutal without heavy filtering. **Social scanning** — this is what I run. I built a pipeline that monitors discussion velocity across multiple platforms simultaneously and flags anomalies using z-score analysis against each asset's own baseline. The advantage isn't speed — on-chain will always be faster for brand new tokens. The advantage is *confirmation*. When social attention is spiking independently across Reddit, Telegram, and Twitter at the same time, that convergence is a much stronger signal than any single data source. Most tools you see only watch one platform, which is why they feel delayed — they're catching the echo, not the origin. **CT (Crypto Twitter) network effects** — some traders just follow the right cluster of wallets and influencers. It works but it's not systematic, and it doesn't scale. The honest answer to your question is that the tools that track tokens immediately after launch are mostly on-chain scanners, and they're useful but dangerous without context. The tools that feel "delayed" are usually social trackers that are actually doing something harder — confirming that real humans are talking about something across multiple independent channels, not just bots pumping a Telegram group. Speed matters less than most people think. Confirmation across independent data sources matters more.

tbh it’s a mix now. retail still uses CT/reddit/youtube, but a lot of people have shifted to on-chain tools and alerts just to not be completely late. like: * twitter/reddit → narratives + early chatter * on-chain dashboards → wallet tracking, flows, token unlocks * telegram/discord → faster signals but also more noise feels like pure “manual research” doesn’t cut it anymore. people are mixing info + tools just to keep up. also way less blind trust now. people are more careful about who to trust in the crypto space, and tend to follow a few top crypto experts or Web3 thought leaders to follow instead of random shills. spot trading still exists but yeah, bots and snipers eat most of the short-term moves. a lot of retail just ends up either holding stronger projects or trying slower swing trades. non-bot edge still exists, just smaller and slower imo.

From the outside, it seems like: • institutions move the big flows • bots dominate short-term opportunities • snipers/arbitrage capture most inefficiencies • retail gets in late and mostly reacts So I’m genuinely curious: **how are normal retail participants researching and making decisions today?** Specifically: 1. What sources/data do you trust most now? 2. Are you still using CT/Reddit/Tiktok/YouTube, or mostly on-chain dashboards + alerts? 3.

I need to start making money online as soon as possible; I have no other way. I do have a job, but it's not enough; I have a daughter and I pay rent. I use the rest of my time to learn trading. I have an infection, but no one knows where it's coming from. My throat swells up and it's almost impossible for me to swallow; I get a lump that goes down very slowly. At the same time, I have swelling under my cheekbones, between my nose and my right eye, like a tooth infection. But it doesn't hurt. I've even been to the dentist several times. I need to have an endoscopy and a CT scan, but the problem is that the appointment isn't for another month and a half, and I've been like this since Christmas. The last time it swelled up, I couldn't even drink water because it bothered me. I feel tension in both sides of my neck, like muscle pain. I don't actually have any, because they haven't diagnosed anything even though I've gone to the emergency room several times. That's why I need to pay for a private clinic. I can't take it anymore; my face has been swollen for months. It's a disgrace. There are days when I barely eat. The worst part is that I don't know if I'm going to die; honestly, it's not that I'm afraid, I've been through a lot and I know I shouldn't worry about problems that have no solution. I've been learning trading for a year now; I'm not profitable yet, but I know what's right and what's wrong, I also know I'm on the right track, it's just a matter of time, but that's precisely what I don't have; that's what pisses me off, because now that I've found a way to stop just surviving and start living, this happens to me. For several years I wanted to go to sleep and never wake up again for various reasons. I don't mind talking about it, it just gets very long.

Maybe I made some mistakes when I expressed it.Maybe it's not the kind of gang you remember, but what I want to express is the kind of fight and trouble after getting drunk.There are also those family members who accompany patients to see a doctor and are very emotional and disrespectful to doctors.For patients with this kind of trauma, sometimes I want to improve the CT examination of their heads, but because it is an emergency, if the outpatient service charges, the patient needs to pay for it himself, and the self-payment is generally 300 yuan once.300 RMB is superfluous.I am not a small number for locals, so I can often arouse their emotions and ask me why I want to do this.Sometimes it scares me.Disputes between doctors and patients in China are frequent and intense.Especially in the high-pressure and high-risk environment of emergency treatment at night.

Bluejumprabbit

Liquidity flows would be the most important to spark the discussion, retail voices on CT follow what happens onchain. You can talk about a certain narrative (example NFT) all you want but if no one is purchasing/selling NFTs then it dies down Volatility precedes CT noise

Have you seen $elongate? It’s Elon Musk’s child’s coin. In their IG bio and everything. Regardless of how you feel about either of them, it’s interesting to have another musk coin in the CT space.

MaximumStudent1839

There is definitely a lot of coordination happening in the background. They buy a bunch of KOL agencies, CT figures/podcasters, and VCs to "build mindshare" about the narrative. Then they coordinate certain liquid funds, many from Singapore/Middle East/shady parts of China, to pump and dump a narrative. It is not really possible to watch on-chain metrics and activities to predict what is what. Most of these narratives hold no water - like they keep shilling ZCash is P2P money when Monero clearly has a wider acceptance/usage for payments. The early meme coin wave was organic because the crypto "native institutions" didn't really take it seriously and were all too preoccupied with modular narratives or whatnot. Later on, it just became a tool for VCs and funds to prop up their launchpad investments. AI is definitely manufactured. Before the bull even started, I said they would manufacture this AI BS as they did with Metaverse. These KOLs and VCs even admit that their interest in AI is not in building real AI products but in tapping into the "general public mindshare" to give up their liquidity for "crypto AI". RWA actually has a longer history, definitely more organic than AI. The interest in RWA stemmed from its ability to provide on-chain yield, less tied to the crypto ouroboros cycle. But the newer emergence of RWA to tokenize shitty businesses or ICOs or whatnot is liquid funds/VCs shilling crypto retail as exit liquidity for SF VCs' portocos.

CT analysts don't know shit. You should know that by now. Bitcoin will hit X until the end of the year. Nope. The true is that no one knows, and no one can predict Bitcoin future, much less in such a short term.

A lot of CT analysts saying its going to high 30s, so my mid 45s was just a "safe" assumption

tigercat300

Everyone knows CoinGecko. But one combo that streamlined things for me: CoinGecko for the macro view (daily market trends, watchlists, portfolio) + GeckoTerminal for anything onchain (new trending memes). The feature that actually changed my onchain trading workflow was using GeckoTerminal's Traders tab. It shows the most profitable traders ranked by PnL. So instead of blindly following CT calls, I check who's consistently profitable on the tokens I'm looking at, then dig deeper into their wallets. Saves a ton of time filtering signal from noise.

While CT is great for hype, it often feels like an echo chamber where projects are just talking to each other, rather than reaching actual new users or long-term holders. I’ve been analyzing the acquisition channels for projects that manage to break into the top 1k on CMC, and it’s becoming clear that relying solely on Twitter/X engagement is a shrinking strategy. High-intent retail users seem to be spending more time on platforms like CoinMarketCap, Etherscan, and niche forums rather than scrolling through curated timelines. I’m curious to hear from other founders, marketers, and community members here: * How are you actually finding "new" users who aren’t already deep in the CT echo chamber? * Do you think the ROI on influencer marketing in crypto is hitting a ceiling, or is it just the way we're using it that's broken? * What channels have you found actually drive consistent, organic interest beyond just a 24-hour pump?

LMAO so your story of him "rugging" is 1) someone makes him a token 2) sends him 50% supply 3) CT runs this up to 5million 4) he creates a single side LP with his tokens 5) he takes out the LP and the 4.5m 6) ??? people gifted him 4.5m and you're saying that it's a rug the original LP was still there the whole time so nothing changed, it was literally money gifted to him so he actually did make millions, but with MONEY GIFTED TO HIM you absolute regard

His profile picture was a selfie he had taken in my basement not long before he died, it was instead replaced with a cartoon of a girl. His banner had also been replaced and his bio was erased. Upon confronting the admin of this account, he apologized and claimed someone had hacked the account and that he bought it. He wouldn’t tell me who hacked it or where and how he bought it. He since removed the retweets and tweet, yet his profile photo is gone forever now and I’m sad that I had never saved it. It’s my understanding that this is a growing illegal crypto scheme. I have so many questions and so little answers, which why I’m here today. Help me understand better what the hell this is and if I can find who is responsible. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I think Mountain time is the lowest-rated time zone of the ET, CT, MT, PT group. I feel like it’s always eastern and local for me.

GPThought

yeah thats unsettling. high activity + net short positioning usually means they have better info than what retail is seeing on CT

Try CT Pool app

Partially, had to get a CT Scan, which my dumb ass dr ordered the wrong one when I specifically asked for a venography... which was like 2500 dollars, and I ended up having to pay 2k of that. So insurance which I pay like 300/month for only covered 500 XD XD XD HAHAHAHAHAHAHA FUCK ISNT THAT SOOOOOO FUNNY HAHAHAA

You know what ima take the long approach here on this Tether was pretty sketch in its early days It also saved the market during the FTX Crash lol They have a lot of holdings now like gold, treasury bills. If this was 2017-18 I’d probably say avoid them. But, Bitfinex and Tether move the market (both owned by iFinex) They stop a lot of fraud with freezing funds (some gets by, yes I know the history.) But I mean realistically.. Paolo & Giancarlo have built quite the empire now. Everyone wants a stake. If you’re really concerned, move to USDC which is a bit more trusty according to CT. I can’t even remember the last time we saw Tether depeg tbh, where it was more than 1-2 cents at max. Any stablecoin provider can freeze tokens. Eth or BTC can’t, but if you withdraw to CEX anyways and are caught being illegal that’s on you. So tldr If you’re not doing anything sketchy, doesn’t matter. If you are concerned about a stabelcoins backing, use USDC.

you need to go get a brain CT scan

This is why I don't follow CT influencers because I see NONE of this anywhere

OpticallyMosache

I think CT hurt CZ's feelings and he's taking revenge lol

OpticallyMosache

Is this what happens when CT hurts CZ's feelings?

The Market is down because a lot of BS going on, most coins don't just run on hype and straight community and buyers buying anymore. Don't get me wrong they do, but a lot of things are driven by news, macros, and other factors as well. When something tends to happen in these categories it can mean an up or down day, week, month, it's remain to be seen where they take things. I recommend getting into Technical Analysis on Charts. It helps you understand where the direction is, and in the case of spot bags with certain coins, it can help you find more lows to accumulate more. I don't know much on GRTUSD but from a quick look on the chart it looks like it's been struggling. I also recommend finding a community within either CT (Crypto Twitter) or another such platform that you can delve through the different info that gets thrown out there (Most is untrue keep that in mind, I tend to wait to see something for hours on end from 4 different accounts to tell whether or not something might have been likely it happened, etc) find a community within one of those platforms and stick with them. The geniune ones will help you build, I'm going on a year plus in the community I am in, still building myself up, but with these guys I feel I have all the tools for success. When things are down people usually Dollar Cost Average into a coin, or asset. Which usually just brings their average price for the majority of their holdings down lower. Which if you or someone bought for instance at one of the highs thinking it was going higher and its gone only down since, you could theoretically buy more to offset the amount you bought at the top, and accumulate more at lower prices, and therefore more bang for your buck. If you have any other questions hit me and I can discuss anything else with you. I wish you Luck with GRT though, remain vigilant and always stay ready to pounce on the next big thing in Crypto to capitalize!

People, as in the masses? After the next top just like this one. Smart people? They will wait until people stop talking about crypto, influencers swindle, CT is at an all time low, CR is handing by a thread. Then they buy slowly

BTCWallahFXEmpire

I agree with other on CT. Its Binance/institutions all the way, selling on one hand to go long on commodities.

Simke11

Plenty on CT.

Justin Sun’s ex has dropped a few bombs on CT. Nothing too surprising when you know Justin’s crook rep. But quite entertaining nonetheless. Oh and guess what? He made most of his fortune by trading with fake accounts on Binance. [link](https://x.com/tenten19901107/status/2017803695585706206?s=46&t=6o4mSZ7ojyiVNDLl-uWCKg)

Post is by: Yike_Pp and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1qpech7/how_do_you_view_binance_founder_cz/ Looking at the timeline in the English Crypto Twitter: January 26th, "Cathie Wood" directly pointed out the reason for the crypto price drop on 11th Oct is Binance. Following this, her ardent fans took the lead in discussing FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) and blame CZ. January 27th, Hype and Sol fans started following suit. January 28th, the spread returned to the Chinese CT. So now, my timeline is full of disputes on CZ... I thought he is no longer CEO of Binance but the truth is he still has a great impact on the whole crypto industry. My question for the community: Are you a Binance user, or BNB holder? How do you view CZ? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

Likely not the bottom yet. People are still bullposting too much. CT influencers need their engagment cut of 80%, reddit posts down 99%, then we're at the bottom

KipAndrew

honestly my biggest lesson is to stop listening to CT shillers and do your own research. lost money on so many "next 100x" coins that went to zero. now i just stick with L1s that have real traction. been accumulating SEI since it feels way oversold compared to fundamentals.

syKonaut

Just so you are aware.... X accounts such as these and WhaleGuru are scammer accounts. It's really fucking sad that these accounts are the ones that noobs to CT see the most.

BNY the biggest custodian bank is going “on-chain” & they built and are using their own private permissioned blockchain, not someone’s 💩coin [“This capability operates on BNY’s private, permissioned blockchain and is governed by the company’s established risk, compliance, and control frameworks.”](https://www.bny.com/corporate/global/en/about-us/newsroom/company-news/bny-extends-digital-cash-capabilities-for-institutional-clients.html?cid=CH02_PL924_CT06_CA02_P999_C912_828100__X04_A001_)

Sir, a simple google search would’ve cleared this up for you. Yes, I know market is closed today but futures opened last night at 5:00 pm CT.

ice_king1437

The timing of this dip, 5:00 pm CT coincided with the release of the futures market. Futures red, BTC dipped immediately.

CipherScarlatti

Seriously who is still using X at this point? CT literally was just about paying $8 a month and claiming they're all making hundreds or thousands posting and being "reply guys".

I think we’re in the process of maturing as an industry. Real adoption is taking place but it’s looking different than most people expected. Banks are tokenizing deposits on their own private chains : https://www.bny.com/corporate/global/en/about-us/newsroom/company-news/bny-extends-digital-cash-capabilities-for-institutional-clients.html?cid=CH02_PL924_CT06_CA02_P999_C912_828100__X04_A001_ In this case there is no clear winner as a L1. But if you’re paying attention to what links tradfi to blockchain you can set yourself up for the long run. Chainlink.
