96.8% drawdown from the high and they still have bulls posting golden cross takes. incredible stuff
the OBV divergence on this one has been screaming distribution for weeks. anyone who bought the restaking narrative at $5 is in deep pain
@Kasper restaking was always a solution looking for a problem. the TVL numbers were inflated by recursive deposits lol
solblaze_404 recursive deposits inflated the TVL and everyone fell for it. restaking was rehypothecation with better branding from day one
restake_bag_kep recursive deposits inflating TVL was obvious to anyone who read past the headline. restaking was rehypothecation with a tech bro accent
Kasper N. 96.8 percent drawdown from 5.65 to 0.18 and people still debate entry points. the OBV divergence has been screaming distribution for months
RSI at 34 and still dropping. this thing needs to find a floor before anyone should even think about an entry
RSI at 34 on a token down 96 percent from ATH. the sell call is late but correct. correlated slashing risk makes the restaking thesis fundamentally broken
Min-jun L. correlated slashing risk is the real killer. one bug in one AVS and the whole restaking stack cascades. people priced this like staking when its closer to uncollateralized lending
uncollateralized lending is the right frame. one ETH stake underwrites a dozen AVS contracts and a single correlated bug impairs all of them at once. the yield was never priced for that tail
and slashing is correlated exactly when it matters, an L1 reorg or one buggy AVS impairs every restaker at once. the 96 percent drawdown is the market repricing that tail
ill say it, when every desk finally prints SELL the sellers are mostly done. stage 4 of 4 is how bottoms look, just not how ratings people think
Stefan V. capitulation signals are real but 0.18 still has a vesting calendar hanging over it. bottoms dont form while the float keeps expanding, the unlocks need to finish digesting first
unlock data is public, so why does the framework skip it entirely. a SELL without an unlock overlay is just a chart description
$5.65 to $0.18 is a 96.8 percent bath. the SELL call should have come 90 percent ago not now. analysts calling SELL at the bottom is classic
joon b is right, sell at 0.18 after a 96 percent drawdown is kicking people on the ground. the useful call was shorting the airdrop farmers dumping unlocks, nobody printed that pdf
hindsight_eth exactly. the desk was neutral at 5 dollars when the unlock calendar was public info and now its conviction SELL into a 96 percent drawdown. ratings follow price, they never lead it
hindsight desk energy. at 5 dollars the same shop calls the divergence noise. smallcap ratings are theater, the move already happened before the PDF went out
the 30k deployment plan framing is funny. who is deploying 30 grand into the 18 cent restaking token lol. at that size you just buy actual ETH and sleep
30k into EIGEN at 0.18 with books that thin, you are the exit liquidity for the vesting cliff lol
unlock calendars flagged this months ago. float tripled while price halved twice, the 0.18 prints are just vesting recipients finding the door
float tripled is the stat that ends the argument. 0.18 isnt capitulation, its arithmetic
stage 3 of a 4 stage framework and the call is still SELL. these numbered frameworks are built so the analyst is never wrong, stage 5 never gets a label
lmao stage 5 never gets a label is spot on. the same shop had BUY on EIGEN at 4 dollars when OBV was already rolling over. frameworks exist so the rating desk is never wrong
5.65 to 0.18 and the bull column still finds two things to like, a golden cross and a rising 50d on a dead cat bounce. frameworks gonna framework
