Collect on Fanable (COLLECT) extended its post-launch rally, trading near $0.045 after gaining nearly 60% over the past week, driven by strong speculative participation and tightly constrained circulating supply. With just 18% of tokens in circulation and trading volume far exceeding market cap, COLLECT remains highly volatile as traders weigh launch-driven momentum against early-stage price discovery risks.

Zcash (ZEC) has outperformed the broader crypto market, rising about 30% over the past week to trade near $536, even as sentiment remains firmly risk-off. Supported by improving liquidity, a fixed-supply profile, and renewed attention from figures like Arthur Hayes, ZEC is holding key technical support around $525, with traders watching for a potential push toward the $580–$600 zone despite continued Bitcoin dominance.

Lighter has confirmed its LIT Token Generation Event for December 30, 2025, allocating 25% of the total supply through an immediate, fully unlocked airdrop and reserving 50% for community incentives. With BingX confirming a spot listing and pre-market LIT perpetuals on Hyperliquid drawing over $94 million in daily volume, the launch is shaping up as one of the most closely watched token events of the year.

Gold and silver prices pulled back sharply as traders locked in profits after a powerful multi-month rally, with silver dropping nearly 9% and gold sliding about 5% following CME margin hikes that triggered leveraged unwinds. Despite the correction, tokenized precious metals saw nearly $900 million in trading volume, and technical structures—particularly for Tether Gold (XAU₮)—suggest consolidation rather than a breakdown in the broader uptrend.

Kinesis Silver (KAG) is consolidating near $81 after a strong rally tied to silver’s breakout above $80 per ounce, with price holding key support around $75. Backed by tight physical supply, strong industrial demand, and a weaker dollar, KAG’s technical structure remains bullish, keeping the $90 region in focus if resistance near $85 gives way.

The global crypto market held above $3 trillion as thin year-end liquidity kept prices range-bound, with Bitcoin consolidating below $90,000 and Ethereum tracking sideways near $3,000. As short-term momentum faded, investor focus shifted toward structural themes shaping 2026, including institutional adoption, derivatives dominance, DeFi governance reforms, and growing interest in tokenized real-world assets such as gold and silver.

Canton (CC) is consolidating near $0.13 after a strong weekly rally, supported by rising volume and growing institutional engagement with the Canton Network’s regulated blockchain infrastructure. With price holding above key support and resistance forming near $0.14, traders are watching for a potential breakout toward the $0.15–$0.17 zone as CC increasingly trades like infrastructure exposure rather than a speculative altcoin.

VanEck views miner capitulation as a potential bottom signal for Bitcoin: Hashrate down 4%, but recovery and costs remain crucial.

Solana-based meme coin Pippin (PIPPIN) jumped nearly 35% in 24 hours as rising trading volume and bullish technical structure reignited speculative interest. Trading near $0.50 with a market cap around $500 million, PIPPIN is forming an ascending triangle, with traders watching for a breakout that could push the token into a new price-discovery phase.
