Only three tokens are in positive territory—$AKT (+47.7%), $GEOD (+32.4%), and $GRASS (+13.9%)—displayed in green, while the remaining 12, including major names like $TAO (-8.7%), $RENDER (-9.2%), $FIL (-48.5%), and $GLM (-59.7%) at the bottom, are in red, reinforcing the post's narrative that smaller, utility-focused DePIN tokens are outperforming widely-hyped blue-chip names.

No technical data confirms a bottom or a clear support level. No data on who's accumulating or exiting.
