Whale-linked PEPE deposit and two-sided liquidations reflect heightened volatility without clear directional bias. Positive Large Holder Netflow and investor wallet growth signal structural support, even as retail interest declines. A wallet linked to James Wynn deposited 240 billion Pepe [PEPE]—valued at $3.36 million—into Binance, raising concerns about potential sell-side pressure. However, the wallet still holds over 203 billion PEPE, worth $2.85 million.  At the same time, market-wide liquidations showed $132.89K in longs and $95.3K in shorts wiped out, reflecting intense two-way pressure. This dual liquidation trend suggests heightened uncertainty as neither bulls nor bears dominate.  Therefore, PEPE’s next directional move…

RENDER price dropped 8% as FUD spread following Coinbase’s announcement to delist the old Ethereum-based RNDR token—even though the newer Solana-based RENDER remains fully supported. Render (RENDER) price declined 8% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $4.50 as the trading volume is surging over 150%. The drop appears to be caused by confusion surrounding the May 27 Coinbase announcement about the delisting of the RNDR token. However, the delisting affects the older Ethereum-based version of Render (RNDR), not the newer Solana-based RENDER. MOBILE, RNDR, RBN, & SYN are being delisted because new versions of these tokens have been…
