Altseason has officially begun & no this is not HOPIUM, this is pure analysis.

Others.D (Alts) has broken out of a 4.5 year long accumulation range & has officially retested it. Last time this happened alts rallied for multiple years.

The difference between this altseason & the previous ones is that NOT ALL COINS will pump. A select few will. & to catch those pump you will need expertise.

Someone who saw previous bull markets.
Someone who sits behind the screen 24/7
Someone who is willing to help. For FREE

That someone is me. In the previous alt season I have given many 100-200x gems & most of my followers can verify & testify.

Now because of a certain loss, I am filled with fire to make back everything I lost.

& I will help my followers recover all their previous losses.

We have a 700 day altcoin bull market ahead of us.

At least, that is what the entire chart history tells us.

This is again a tale of how everyone thinks we are in a 2022 situation.

We can see here again, very clearly, that when:
- PMI breaks into expansion
- 1M Stochastic has turned up
- OTHERS.D breaks trend

That OTHERS begins its true bull cycle.

The red dots signal cycle tops, when parabolic runs have happened and PMI has been expanding for at least 18 months.

Alts have bottomed against the market and the best is yet to come, not the worst.

[Sykodelic 🔪 @Sykodelic_]

Another massive piece of confluence.

OIL just gapped up 11%... the largest gap ever, and broke its almost 4 year downtrend.

And when we compare Bitcoin, OIL, and PMI, we see a striking correlation.

They all move in absolute lock step.

It is not a surprise that OIL performs well in times of ISM/economic expansion.

And I just don't understand why everyone is fading it so hard.

All the pieces of the puzzle are forming into their places at the exact same time.

We can see here that in the previous cycles, when OIL breaks out its trend, Bitcoin has pushed for 500 - 600 days.

And OIL continues to push the whole time ISM is in expansion.

Look at the red circles... they are cycle highs.

Does that look like where we are?

Or does it look like we are at the green circles?

Its very clear.

Are you really going to try and kid yourself over and over that OIL just had its longest consolidation ever, and so did ISM?

Every single one of these broad macro charts is saying the same thing to you.

And yet, the majority just ignore them and think "$30k soon".

I literally just chart these things... i have no control over how it looks.

I have no bias, it simply is what it is.

And all it says it that its all going much higher.

I am just the messenger.

Now this is the kind of detailed openness that deserves huge praise - Kondux for the win!

[Kondux @Kondux_KNDX]

Yesterday, the admin wallet for the Kondux Staking Treasury was targeted and drained. Approximately $98,000 in $KNDX tokens and ETH were stolen.

We're sharing everything we know because our community deserves full transparency, and because what happened to us is happening to others right now.

This is not a post we wanted to write. But it's one that is important for our community, our investors, and the broader crypto ecosystem.

What Happened

A Kondux admin wallet was compromised through a new class of phishing attack that exploits EIP-7702, a feature introduced in Ethereum's Pectra upgrade in May 2025, that temporarily handed control of the wallet to a malicious smart contract. We are still investigating how the off-chain authorization was obtained to complete the EIP-7702 exploit.

No Kondux smart contracts were compromised.

This was a sophisticated and highly targeted attack against an individual admin wallet. The attacker temporarily converted the admin wallet into an externally owned account (EOA) that could be converted into a proxy for a purpose-built drainer contract.

The admin wallet they targeted had admin authority to the treasury, a contract built as the vault for the staking contract. With their ill-gotten delegate authority, the attacker withdrew roughly 3 eth directly from the account and roughly 96 million KNDX via withdrawal.

The wallet has been secured. Since this was an EIP-7702 authorization exploit, we were able to remove the delegate wallet access and secure the wallet. No private keys were revealed during the exploit.

We are not the only victims.

While our users are safe from the exploit trickling into their wallets from our systems and smart contracts, we have found at least 3 other victims of this attack from the same hacker.

Timeline

Feb 25, 22:41 UTC — The attacker created a fresh executor wallet and deployed a purpose-built drainer contract. Total setup time: under 4 minutes.

Feb 25, 22:45 UTC — First drain. The attacker submitted the signed authorization on-chain, converted the admin wallet into a proxy, and batch-executed operations: withdrawing 96.18M KNDX and 0.797 ETH. During this time, the community telegram was inundated with dozens of Russian spammers.
TX Hash: 0xf9742ec13ef3f3b7a94f33517079fbfdf015c89e1fd12f54585dd0658d20d7bd

Feb 25, 22:47 UTC — Second drain. An additional 2.266 ETH extracted. Total elapsed attack time: ~6 minutes.
TX Hash: 0x40ca28afe55150c33916485aee1891fcb62dfb225387a4e3efb45fa5e6e9f66f

Feb 26: The team revoked the malicious delegation via Flashbots Protect RPC and secured the wallet. The old authorization signature cannot be replayed.

The Hacker

Our investigation traced the attacker's receiving wallet to a serial phishing operation that has stolen an estimated $150,000+ in a single week across at least five confirmed victims. Every victim was a crypto project deployer or active DeFi participant. Every targeted wallet was dormant or low-activity at the time of attack.

Other victims include:

1. A long-time DeFi user drained of ~$52,600 in QNT, USDT, and other tokens 0x55F27a0760979Edd208155917D42417F8CfAEdE6

The FLEABONE token deployer drained of 0.226 ETH - 0xe785e706048f75454e2c8963c1ce0809da67fded

The Deboard project deployer drained of 0.066 ETH - 0xe23DAdad82873f3a72d41c68205beb0f0acD8A21

Kondux drained of ~$98,000 - 0x41BC231d1e2eB583C24cee022A6CBCE5168c9FD2

A fifth address reportedly lost 7.81 ETH (~$16,100) 0x257866ebFdd2e62A24eCb98E6B4429e97e6d4E5f

Some of the funds are sitting in the address 0x615DeB963Af37783964edE2beC40e025A21A00f0 while the rest (43.92 eth) has been funneled using @RelayProtocol depository from hackers wallet 0xC330d08C988241331376E515a5F5F359DE050c0A

The attacker funded their operation through a KuCoin exchange withdrawal, used intermediary wallets to obscure the trail, deployed identical infrastructure across multiple chains using CREATE2, and laundered stolen tokens through 1inch, 0x Protocol, KyberSwap, and cross-chain bridges to Polygon, Avalanche, Base, and BSC.

EIP-7702 is new, powerful, and not widely understood by most users.

You don't submit a transaction. You only sign a message. There's no gas fee, no on-chain footprint, and no MetaMask "confirm transaction" warning that would normally raise a red flag. The attacker stores the signature off-chain and executes whenever they choose.

Your wallet becomes their wallet. Once the signed authorization is submitted on-chain, the attacker can execute any operation as you by withdrawing staked tokens, transferring funds, or interacting with contracts all from your address.

Existing security habits don't protect you. The Kondux admin wallet had never connected to a third-party dApp besides OpenSea Studio.

What This Means for Kondux

The protocol is secure. No contracts were exploited. No user funds are at risk.

The delegation has been revoked. The malicious authorization has been cleared, and nonce protection in EIP-7702 prevents the old signature from being reused.

We want our community and investors to understand the precise nature of the threat and what it does and does not mean for the safety of the Kondux protocol.

What We're Doing Now

Immediate actions taken: The malicious delegation was revoked within hours. The admin wallet has been secured and migration to fresh infrastructure is underway. All on-chain evidence has been documented and preserved for law enforcement in the event that action can be taken.

Ongoing investigation: We are working to identify the exact vector for how the signature was obtained despite the wallet's extremely limited exposure. The attacker's funding chain traces back to a @kucoincom hot wallet, which means potential KYC records exist. This information has been compiled for law enforcement referral.

Community protection: We are publishing this full forensic analysis so that other projects can recognize and defend against EIP-7702 delegation attacks. If your wallet is dormant and you've deployed a crypto project, you may be a target.

Final Word

We built Kondux to last. This does not change the integrity of our protocol, the commitment of our team, or the strength of our community.

We're sharing this publicly and in full detail but because the crypto ecosystem is only as strong as our willingness to be honest about what happened and help others avoid the same situation.

If you or your project has been affected by a similar attack reach out. We're tracking this attacker's infrastructure and compiling evidence.

Everybody needs to see this chart.

If you are struggling to understand my thesis...

This is another simple and effective chart that tells a very broad macro picture, all in one.

its probably one of the best overall macro charts you could see.

What we are looking at here is:
- COPPER
- BITCOIN
- GOLD
- ISM

Now, these 4 charts all tell a very distinct story, but when you put them together, they tell almost everything.

Copper is an asset that signals overall expansion as it is the most used metal in construction and development of all forms, and now, with the added tailwind of AI.

Copper has broken out of a 20 year trend to the upside.

That is definitely something.

The demand for Copper is not going to slow down.

Next, Bitcoin, follows Copper almost tit for tat, because Bitcoin is a risk on asset that thrives in economic and business expansion.

And at the very bottom, ISM, which is the index for whether the economy is expanding or not.

So now, firstly, observe Copper and ISM... do we think that Copper breaking out of a 20 year range and ISM entering expansion for the first time is a coincidence?

It's not.

Now, look at every cycle top for Bitcoin. What do Copper and ISM look like at those moments?

At the peak of their epansion.... but right now, they are only at the beginning.

And with Copper breaking a 20 year trend, do we think this will be a small breakout?

No.

Lastly, lets now add in Gold.

Gold is important here because it is a risk off asset that thrives in periods of economic uncertainty.

What we can see here is that Gold runs whilst the others contract.

And we can see, every cycle, regardless of "4 year cycle"... this is a process that happens.

GOLD pumps in contraction
ISM moves into expansion w Copper pushing
Bitcoin follows

This is not an arbitrary 4 year number... this same process is happening right now, even thought it is totally out of line with the 4 year cycle.

Because it is not the 4 year cycle that matters...

It is the cycle of expansion and contraction that we can see here.

It is not a coincidence that this is all happening the same way it always does, even thought this time there has been a much longer gap between ISM contraction and expansion.

This chart tells us everything we need to know about the macro.

And it is, right now, entering large scale expansion...

Whilst everyone thinks its over.

This is nothing like 2022.

[Sykodelic 🔪 @Sykodelic_]

This is all one massive psyop.

The market makers have laid the perfect trap out there and everyone is falling for it.

And the crazy thing, what is happening is what always happens...

Its just happening in a different way this cycle that most cant see.

What they have done is use the 4 year cycle to lay the perfect trap, just as the macro cycle is expanding.

They have followed the 4 year cycle for now, and it has convinced everyone it is truly over, right before it gets reversed.

This is the first time in Bitcoins life that the 4 year cycle and the business cycle are diverging, and right now, is the crucial moment.

What you can see here is that every time the Business cycle enters expansion, Bitcoin has multi-month drops.

Its happened every time.

I simply just see it as a mid cycle top, but you can call it whatever you want.

Then, after the correction, the bull cycle enters its true phase as the macro expands and we find true price discovery.

Here is what I think has happened and will happen next:
- 10/10 they removed all the leverage
- Mid cycle correction that has been overdone
- Convince all holders of 4 yr cycle long bear market
- Now 10/10 is out and holders capitulated
- Smart money bought this dip very hard

And just as everyone has given up, Clarity act gets passed, massive insto money flows in and Bitcoin diverges from the 4 yr cycle and follows the macro/business cycle as always.

Do you really think institutional and bank money was gonna come in and pump all our bags nice and easy?

No, they have done whatever they can here to shake you out and destroy your bags.

This is truly max pain.

Everyone has sold and will be so confused why we are going higher, when the data has been there all along.

This whole market correction has been forced and overcooked, without even a real narrative.

And now everyone is looking at 2022 expecting it to follow to an absolute tee, without even caring for the macro backdrop.

No 2 cycles repeat.

Whatever seems obvious it not.

It is my view that, based on the data that matters...

That this is what is happening.

Laugh, call me retard, i dont care.

I have seen enough to know this is not some pie in the sky fantasy.

You would do well to not ignore it.

[Ardi @ArdiNSC]

$BTC

After the big volume sell off at $60K, everyone started calling the bottom.

That's not how bottoms work. The selling climax only stops the bleeding. It doesn't reverse anything, and it actually shows you how strong the downtrend is.

After the big flush you still need the bounce, the retest, months of range building, the shakeout that wipes out the last sellers, and then confirmation that buyers actually have control.

That's 5 phases. Most of them take months. We haven't even started.

Look at what happened after the climax. Price bounced into a range between $66-71K. Volume never dried up, and actually increased inside the range.

That's not signs of accumulation for a reversal. In a real bottom, volume decreases as the range develops because sellers lose interest. Here, sellers stayed active the entire time.

Big volume at the bottom of a move means one thing. The move stopped. Not that it suddenly reversed.

Massive difference between the two, and most people have no idea.

[Grand Inquisitor Cicero @TheGreekGod11]

Fear at 5 is hilarious to me.

Everyone has poop 💩 in their diapers.
We were not even this low during FTX or Luna crash.

And the most ironic thing here?

Nothing has happened, literally nothing, and let’s assume according to everyone on CT that the bear market has only just begun…

That would mean 1-2 more years of even lower prices. If that‘s the case, what level would we be on in half a year from now, -20 on the fear scale?

Don‘t you motherfuckers realize we already reached peak fear or are close to it, which would mean that the bottom is in or close to, and the bear market ends and NOT BEGINS you stupid fucking apes.

It‘s just funny to me how no one gives this a second thought.

We‘re in the mid cycle or actually the cycle was extended.

2025 was a bear market and 2024 was only a 2-3 month bull phase. Other than that we have been in a prolonged bear market, a SUPERBEAR, since November 2021.

If we‘re at 5 on the fear level on February 23, 2026 without anything having happened right now, how can you morons even justify a worse time by Q4 2026?

I just know we have pretty much endured the worst of this cycle, every single person on this app is announcing crypto‘s death, and after the blood moon there is only one direction to come and that is to the sky.

Trump successfully shaked the entirety of CT out and it‘s brilliant.

No, it’s actually Masterclass.

[Julien Bittel, CFA @BittelJulien]

A lot of people have been asking for an update on this chart, so I’ll just leave this here for anyone who needs to see it.

This shows the average BTC trajectory following an oversold RSI reading, with RSI falling below 30 at t=0.

So far, it’s been pretty bang on.

Unless you believe the 4-year cycle is still in play, which we don’t, this chart should hold up contextually over time.

No, it won’t be perfect, but assuming the bull market isn’t already over, it’s a useful chart to keep in mind.

As we’ve outlined many times, based on our work on the business cycle, the current path of financial conditions, and our expectations for overall liquidity, the balance of probabilities is that this cycle extends well into 2026.

In that world, the 4-year cycle is dead.

Remember, the 4-year cycle was never about the halving, despite widespread belief that it is, but instead has always been driven by the public debt refinancing cycle, as outlined in our work at GMI, which post-COVID was pushed out by one year.

In our view, the 4-year cycle is now officially broken because the weighted average maturity of the debt term structure has increased.

And the bigger picture is that there is still a vast amount of interest expense that needs to be monetized, which has far exceeded GDP growth.

Another thing to keep in mind is that bases can take time to form and usually come with plenty of chop before the bigger up-move kicks in.

Finally, let me repeat what I said when I first posted this chart last month.

If you think the bull market is over and we are now facing twelve months of pain, this chart is not for you. Move along...

4 REASONS WHY CRYPTO MARKET IS DUMPING HARD THIS WEEK 🚨

1) OPTIONS EXPIRY

TOMORROW, $23 BILLION IN BITCOIN AND ETHEREUM OPTIONS WILL EXPIRE.

THIS IS A QUARTERLY OPTIONS EXPIRATION AND OFTEN BRINGS HIGH VOLATILITY.

MAX PAIN PRICE FOR $BTC IS $110,000 AND $3,700 FOR $ETH.

USUALLY WHALES DRIVE PRICES TOWARDS MAX PAIN, AND THAT'S WHAT'S HAPPENING.

2) US GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN

THE ODDS OF A US GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN BY OCTOBER 1 IS NOW AT 67%.

IN THE PAST, US GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWNS HAVE RESULTED IN MARKET CORRECTION, AND THIS IS WHY PEOPLE ARE PANICKING.

3) STRONG ECONOMIC DATA

TODAY, Q2 GDP REVISED DATA CAME AT 3.8% VS. 3.3% EXPECTED.

GOOD ECONOMIC DATA IS BULLISH IN THE LONG TERM BUT BEARISH IN THE SHORT TERM.

THIS IS BECAUSE GOOD ECONOMIC DATA LOWERS THE CHANCES OF RATE CUTS.

4) EXCESSIVE LEVERAGE

IN THE PAST WEEK, RETAIL OPENED HIGH LEVERAGE POSITIONS DUE TO PERPS DEX HYPE.

AT ONE POINT, ALTS OPEN INTEREST WAS ALMOST 2X THAT OF BITCOIN.

AND RIGHT NOW, THOSE PEOPLE ARE GETTING LIQUIDATED, WHICH IS CAUSING A MARKET DUMP.

CONCLUSION

I THINK THIS IS A PERFECT SET-UP BY WHALES TO PANIC SELL YOUR COINS BEFORE Q4.

THEY STARTED SEPTEMBER IN A BULLISH WAY TO MAKE PEOPLE THINK THAT IT'LL BE UP-ONLY.

NOW WHALES ARE DUMPING, SO PEOPLE PANIC SELL BEFORE THE Q4 RALLY.
