AI Industry Downturn by December 31, 2026?
Five wallets all sold No around 77¢ for nearly $36k on a very quiet market, creating a 559x volume spike and signaling coordinated conviction despite mixed individual track records.
- Five wallets all hit the same side within about an hour, totaling $35.9k on a market that had only $1.5k of 24-hour volume before this burst.
