If you randomly selected a day from the 7 year period that $ALGO has been publicly traded and bought/held, there is a 98.9% chance you would be at a loss today. Throughout the 1.1% of days that would lead to profit, the largest price appreciation was only ~4.5%. What is it going to take for a change in leadership?"

> **Visual Note:** A weekly Algorand (ALGO) chart against USD shows price holding above the highlighted "THIS MUST HOLD!" support level near 0.09–0.13, with annotated bull targets of $4.5, $7–8, and $10–13 based on Fibonacci extensions. The setup corresponds to the post's bullish outlook, reinforcing that ALGO is maintaining its key floor while targeting a minimum of $2 and broader upside toward $4.5–13.  

> 
> "$ALGO
 UPDATE!!!

Still holding the "This must hold" level. Algo is a rare case since it's still actually higher than it was back in 2023 bear lows. Most 2021 coins have been dumping MUCH lower! This is def. strength!

Targets are still the same! 

Minimum $2 | Bullish $4.5-13"

Behind him, a screenshot of a tweet from "Black @Black64577458" references Senator Lummis's announcement that the CLARITY Act will reach the Senate floor the week of July 20, alongside a breaking news headline from "Lark Davis @LarkDavis" and a Fox Business image of cryptocurrency coins. The accompanying post suggests the strategy of "BUY THE RUMOR SELL THE NEWS" for tickers $HBAR, $XLM, $XRP, and $ALGO, tying the man's animated commentary to potential market implications of the upcoming crypto legislation vote.

> **Video Content:** The video walks through a step-by-step screencast of launching a crowdfunding campaign on the Sprout platform, beginning with a title card "Launch a campaign on Sprout" before transitioning into the "Launch your project" dashboard. The cursor navigates through three progressive stages—Project Info (filling in details like "Sprout" and tagging it a "decentralized crowdfunding platform"), Contract Terms (setting a goal of "100000" tokens at "10" tokens per ALGO over "10 days"), and Review & Deploy—while a live preview card on the right updates in real time, ending with a "Ready to deploy" confirmation. After deployment, the view shifts to the "My Projects" dashboard where a new campaign appears listed and a "Set up contract" modal is used to attach a token ID ("75246530"), followed by a final landing page reading "Live on Algorand" at sproutalgo.com, with step-by-step captions like "STEP 3 Pick a campaign type," "STEP 5 100,000 ALGO," and "STEP 7 Token verified on-chain ✓" anchoring each phase.
