> **Visual Note:** A 12-hour volume chart for DOT/ETH on Uniswap (dexscreener.com) shows trading volume remaining flat and minimal near the 0M baseline, with only a brief spike to roughly 6-7M earlier in the period. This stagnant volume pattern visually supports the post's argument that $DOT needs renewed trading activity to drive volume back to base levels.
