How OM Holders Got Betrayed
It started with a suspicious transfer — a wallet linked to MANTRA quietly moved 3.9 million $OM tokens to OKX.
This move instantly raised red flags.Why?
Because the MANTRA team controls over 90% of the entire supply meaning they hold the power to crash the price anytime they want.
Soon after, massive selling pressure kicked in.The team started dumping tokens aggressively.
Adding fuel to the fire, rumors surfaced that OM tokens were being sold OTC at huge discounts
What followed was a complete domino effect Panic selling began ➡️ Stop losses started triggering ➡️ Leverage positions got liquidated one after another
A classic textbook rugpull.

$OM crash was a textbook case of what happens when inflated price action meets poor liquidity planning, misunderstood tokenomics, and fragile trust.

When You Start a Trade War But Forget China Has the Cheat Codes.
As of now, China seems to be having the edge in this trade war - and here’s why:
While the US is battling inflation as a side-effect of the trade war, China’s exports surged by 12.4% in March, defying all odds and ongoing tensions.
This data clearly shows that the cards are now in China's hands, and they seem to be playing them with precision.
In another bold move, China has suspended exports of certain rare earth minerals and magnets to the US - materials that are critical for global industries like semiconductors, automobiles, and aerospace.
And now, China has ordered a halt to Boeing jet deliveries, a strategic blow aimed right at the heart of American aerospace. What makes it worse? Boeing was projected to sell $1.3 trillion worth of aircraft to China over the next 10 years. If China cancels or delays this deal, it could seriously hurt the US.
But here’s the real question - why is China doing all this?
The reason is a no-brainer - China wants to end the trade war that the US initiated, and it's playing aggressive moves to mount pressure on US. Just 2 days back, China officially stated that the US must "completely cancel tariffs."
So where is this trade war heading?
What we’re witnessing now feels like Phase 2 of the US-China trade war. Phase 1 was dominated by the US aggressively imposing tariffs and restrictions on China taking the first major swings.
But now, in Phase 2, the tables have turned - China is strategically hitting back, launching trade attacks of its own and targeting high-stakes sectors like aerospace and tech.
IMO, Phase 3 will be the stage where both sides are finally forced to sit at the table. Not out of choice, but compulsion.
They’ll realize the mutual economic damage is too big to ignore, and a middle-ground settlement becomes the only way forward.
But before that happens, both nations are playing a game of economic brinkmanship - trying to prove who can inflict more damage, so when they eventually negotiate, they do it from a position of power… and walk away with the better end of the deal.

At this point, it honestly feels like the worst is in and not many even care about tariffs anymore.
Markets have stopped reacting. Headlines barely move the prices.. even though China’s still making moves quietly applying pressure.

🚨 These are the top 10 projects with the lowest FDV / Annualized Revenue ratio.
In simple terms — these projects are actually making money or on track to become sustainable. In a space full of hype and speculation, this metric helps cut through the noise.
I'm building a separate watchlist for the projects — real businesses, real users, real revenue.
Over the next few days, I’ll be doing deep research on each of them — not just surface-level stats, but actual use-cases, business models, growth potential, and whether their revenue is sustainable or just temporary noise.
The goal? To identify those rare gems that are building with purpose — not just pumping tokens.

The global markets are bleeding but Bitcoin is standing tall
In times of heightened unpredictability, investors tend to de-risk their portfolios by offloading volatile assets like stocks and crypto. That’s exactly what we saw in the past few weeks market decline - a classic response to uncertainty. But now, what’s unfolding goes beyond a routine correction — and it demands closer attention.
The US-China conflict is no longer limited to just tariffs. It’s turning into full-scale economic warfare.
China has:
Cancelled major deals with the US, including Boeing jets
Stopped buying oil from the US
Shifted 90% of its oil imports to Canada
Meanwhile, Trump is pushing over 70 countries to cut trade ties with China in an effort to secure favorable tariff deals with the US.
This escalating tension has wiped out $1.5 trillion from the US stock market in just a day - with tech stocks taking the biggest hit.
And yet… Bitcoin is holding strong. Even Gary Gensler is bullish on Bitcoin now lol
Two possible reasons:
1. The market is starting to see Bitcoin as a safe haven asset during global uncertainty — and we’re seeing early signs of decoupling from the S&P 500.
2. Or… this could be a clever move by market makers — squeezing shorts via coin-margined longs. Open interest data supports this theory.
So before jumping into full-on bullish mode, I'm holding back, watching closely how Bitcoin reacts over the coming days in this clash of economic titans. King Kong vs Godzilla

For 20+ years, markets were spoon-fed by central banks (Fed). Now? We’re being forced to think independently again.
Investing based on real fundamentals, not policy hopes.
Trump’s aggressive tariffs, the attempt to de-financialize the U.S. economy - this is big.
Just like China’s slow deleveraging starting 2017, this shift won’t be smooth or fast.
Key reality checks:
U.S. household net worth = 8x disposable income (bubble much?)
Foreign investors hold 30%+ of U.S. debt
U.S. is literally telling global capital: sell our dollar and go home
What does it mean for us?
Global capital is moving.
A small tiptoe out of dollar assets can shake markets -
Global investors have poured trillions into US assets over the years,even a slight move away from them can cause massive market ripples.
Surplus countries (with their own strong savings) will dominate.
Europe might fund its new bonds by selling off S&P500.
For crypto:
Capital flows are king.
Dollar weakness = potentially bullish for Bitcoin, ETH, and sound money assets.
Global competition for capital = decentralized money gets stronger narratives.
The winners?
Investors who buy assets on real value, not hype.
Those who don’t bet on Fed pivots or political tweets.
Those who can say: "I don't have a forecast. I have a thesis."
Not the leveraged degens who confused a bull market with being smart.
