I'm a teenager like many others, there's nothing special in my life, or at least nothing worth noting. I go to school, don't have many friends (don't have any, really... I'm a bit shy. Sometimes I talk with people in my class, but we never hang out or things like that). I don't like going to school, but not because I don't like studying or learning new things. I just don't like sitting on a chair in a room full of people who spend their time there talking, arguing or just being really annoying. Sure enough, when I get home I start studying and doing my homework, and as soon as I finish with it I start doing my personal research about what I really like: I love cryptids. I love studying them, watching videos about how they first appeared in popular culture, I really love the Bigfoot and the Wendigo, and the Rake definitely accompanied me throughout my childhood." ### Post #17 by @chartexpt > **Author:** [@chartexpt](https://x.com/chartexpt) > **Metrics:** 35 likes · 0 retweets · 8 comments · 8.0K views > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/chartexpt/status/2089352640551649298](https://x.com/chartexpt/status/2089352640551649298) > **Visual Context:** A candlestick chart for the CYSUSDT Perpetual Contract shows a dramatic ~36.96% drop from $1.7950 (marked by a yellow-circled resistance zone near $1.7600–$1.8000) down to $0.5033, visually confirming the "$CYS full tp hit" as price broke through multiple support levels ($1.3032, $1.0046, $0.7669, $0.6563) to reach the take-profit target. > > "$CYS full tp hit." ### Post #18 by @hantengri > **Author:** [@hantengri](https://x.com/hantengri) > **Metrics:** 14 likes · 0 retweets · 1 comments · 710 views > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/hantengri/status/2089354918511383007](https://x.com/hantengri/status/2089354918511383007) > **Visual Context:** A dark-themed dashboard for Starknet showing 'Total Value Locked in DeFi' at $163.65m with a -0.43% 24h change, and key metrics like Stablecoins Mcap ($158.77m) and RWA Active Mcap ($33.35m). > > "zero series is back with L2s and nobody is safe" ### Post #19 by @Cronos_Chris > **Author:** [@Cronos_Chris](https://x.com/Cronos_Chris) > **Metrics:** 4 likes · 2 retweets · 3 comments · 102 views > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/Cronos_Chris/status/2089316596355387897](https://x.com/Cronos_Chris/status/2089316596355387897) > > "Happy $TURTLE Monday #crofam" ### Post #20 by @rasmr_eth > **Author:** [@rasmr_eth](https://x.com/rasmr_eth) > **Metrics:** 0 likes · 0 retweets · 0 comments · 506 views > **Source Link:** [https://x.com/rasmr_eth/status/2089363317483528560](https://x.com/rasmr_eth/status/2089363317483528560) > > "Imagine doomscrolling instead of trading Trading is far more addicting and there’s actual upside as well." --- ## Contributing Accounts - `@kula_dao` (https://x.com/kula_dao) - `@alphasimpsRH` (https://x.com/alphasimpsRH) - `@MortisHQ` (https://x.com/MortisHQ) - `@AOTMgallery` (https://x.com/AOTMgallery) - `@Moshikins_eth` (https://x.com/Moshikins_eth) - `@RaticalsETH` (https://x.com/RaticalsETH) - `@Boychasee` (https://x.com/Boychasee) - `@rarahh_bby` (https://x.com/rarahh_bby) - `@wacy_time1` (https://x.com/wacy_time1) - `@rasmr_eth` (https://x.com/rasmr_eth) - `@ethcebarus` (https://x.com/ethcebarus) - `@0xSumitt` (https://x.com/0xSumitt) - `@vssema11` (https://x.com/vssema11) - `@GpaAndy` (https://x.com/GpaAndy) - `@riseoneth` (https://x.com/riseoneth) - `@reddit` (https://x.com/reddit) - `@Mibblesnft` (https://x.com/Mibblesnft) - `@ether_fi` (https://x.com/ether_fi) - `@TedPillows` (https://x.com/TedPillows)
