$KINS
  but I like the chart.

It just had it's 80% correction, now sits at 5M

Some say it's the next 
$AXS
 , so I looked.

Funny enough, AXS had a 80%+ correction"

> **Video Content:** The video shows a glowing, ornate symbol resembling a stylized face or mask hovering above a lotus flower, with a swirling egg-like object at its center, all set against a warm, mystical background of constellations. As the sequence progresses, the central egg begins to hatch, and by the final frame, a small, round pink Axie creature with spikes emerges and sits on the lotus pedestal. The accompanying text references Axie Infinity and Axie Origins, confirming the hatched character is a new Axie.
