Crypto market's weekly winners and losers- OKB, PI, ADA, WLFI

Notable Weekly Gainers

OKB 1-day Chart Source: OKB/USDT on TradingView

The Intercontinental Exchange, which is the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange, has acquired a minority stake in the OKX exchange. This strategic investment valued the exchange at approximately $25 billion, although specific investment numbers remain undisclosed. The news led to a stunning rally in OKB token prices, which soared from $77 to $120 in just a single day, starting from a crucial long-term support level around $79.

Investors looking to enter might want to see the $120 threshold, previously a resistance point since mid-November 2025, become a supportive level before making purchases.

Regarding the PI token, while AMBCrypto had previously noted a bearish trend, the price action around the $0.207 area demonstrated a significant bullish breakout, overcoming resistance levels. Traders are advised to look for potential buying opportunities on any retracement.

Memecore (M) also noted a robust performance, challenging its mid-range resistance at $1.57 with a 9.2% increase from last Sunday’s low. However, it fell back to the $1.5 mark in recent hours. Traders should observe this memecoin and its resistance levels closely.

Another altcoin worth monitoring is Mantle (MNT), which posted a 5.73% gain over the week and successfully broke through the local swing point at $0.68.

Weekly Decliners

Cardano 1-day Chart Source: ADA/USDT on TradingView

Despite being a well-known cryptocurrency, the Cardano (ADA) blockchain continues to face criticism regarding its low on-chain activity, as highlighted by analyst Ali Martinez. He noted that the Total Value Locked (TVL) on Cardano has not once exceeded $1 billion, especially in comparison to Ethereum (ETH), which had a TVL of $54.67 billion at the time of writing.

In terms of price movement, ADA has declined 9.61% since last Sunday, starting from $0.281. The attempt to surpass a critical resistance at $0.305 was unsuccessful. Observers might watch for a potential test of the support zone around $0.246.

World Liberty Financial (WLFI) experienced a significant 14% drop since last Sunday. Reports suggest that if WLFI cannot hold the $0.097 support level, its price could slide further down to $0.07. At present, WLFI is trading at $0.0968.

ZCash (ZEC) has also fared poorly, down 10.4% this week, making it a consistent underperformer. A key support level at $187 is critical for bulls who will likely defend it.

Solana (SOL) faced challenges while trying to breach the $90 supply zone and showed signs of seller pressure, which might lead to further declines.

As Bitcoin inches towards the demand zone at $63,000 to $65,000—where prior bullish momentum originated—investors await its next move. A rebound from this retracement could provide some altcoins with the momentum they need to rise in the upcoming week.
