Top coins that increased and fell sharply in the past week: PENGU, SEI, KAI, CRV

Last week, the crypto market looked like a gamble.

Meme coins are experiencing significant volatility as Bitcoin sharply rebounds from the 98,000 dollar low, recording a nearly 10% recovery to reclaim the important resistance level of 107,000 dollars. This move has sparked short-term risk appetite, attracting capital flows into speculative investments.

However, the sentiment remains shaky as traders continuously shift between the "risk-on" strategy prioritizing risk and standing aside to observe. Overall, it has been a volatile week with bursts of local intensity but lacking clear confirmation across the market.

Top coin big win of the week

( Pudgy Penguins )PENGU### – Leading Memecoin with a strong reversal upward

Pudgy Penguins (PENGU) topped the breakout rankings last week with a surge of 60% compared to the opening price of $0.08, thanks to a classic Short Squeeze and a return of capital flow to memecoins.

The week started with a decrease of 2.17% as the overall market leaned towards a cautious trend, but the sentiment quickly reversed. The very next day, PENGU increased by 16.32%, signaling that an early accumulation phase is underway.

After a slight adjustment of 7% mid-week, the price action has set up the familiar "liquidity trap" scenario – causing the Short side to get trapped and triggering a strong increase of 46% in just two days.

As of now, this memecoin is trading just below the important resistance level of $0.015 (, the last time it reached this mark was at the beginning of month 5), when PENGU entered the decisive zone.

Technically, the RSI indicator is at a high level but has not yet entered the overbought zone, indicating there is still room for the price to continue rising. If the bulls can turn the $0.015 level into a solid support area, the next short-term targets will be $0.017 and $0.02, with strong bullish momentum supporting this.

( Sei )SEI### – Blockchain layer 1 continues its upward trend with two consecutive weeks of increases

Sei (SEI) continued its impressive upward trend last week, recording a 51% increase from its opening price of $0.19 and maintaining its position as the second-best performing altcoin.

This is also the second consecutive week that SEI has attracted market attention.

The week kicked off with a 22% bounce, surpassing the important resistance level at $0.2. The bulls maintained this price range during the retest, paving the way for the next strong surge of 25.84%, pushing the price up to the $0.33 range.

As predicted, the momentum indicators began to signal overheating, causing a 16% price adjustment in the middle of the week. However, buying pressure quickly returned, allowing SEI to recover all of its losses within just three trading sessions. As of now, SEI has once again lost the $0.3 mark.

If the bulls maintain control and turn the $0.33 mark into support, SEI could enter a price discovery phase in Q3.

Maple Finance (SYRUP) ended the week with a strong increase of 49.56% from an opening price of $0.43, securing the third position in the list of coins with the highest gains of the week.

After a series of consecutive monthly increases since April, SYRUP begins the last week of June with a bounce of 12.8%, turning the pullback to $0.43 into a classic "springboard" pattern – a price setup that has appeared in previous price discovery phases.

Immediately after that, there were four consecutive sessions recording a stable inflow of funds, pushing the breakout price to a new peak at $0.65 – confirming strong demand and significant breakout volume.

However, SYRUP has historically tended to correct after "shallow" increases, so the support zone of $0.5–$0.52 becomes an area to watch closely.

If the bulls maintain the 0.6 dollar mark as new support, SYRUP could completely avoid a deeper correction and continue to move towards a new historical peak in early Q3, thanks to increasingly strong upward momentum and active on-chain capital flow.

Top coins that performed poorly this week

( Kaia )KAIA### – Foundation token for social network experiences a sharp decline

Kaia (KAIA) has dropped from the leading position in week 22/6 to the group of declining prices, recording a decrease of 5.55% – a clear sign of weakening upward momentum and increasing selling pressure.

This is not just a random correction. On the daily timeframe, KAIA reached a local peak at the end of January at $0.2 but was immediately rejected.

The RSI divergence combined with the bearish crossover signal from the MACD has early indicated a short-term trend reversal.

From the peak of $0.20, KAIA has formed 6 red candles, breaking through several nearby support levels and sliding down to $0.16 as of now.

!()https://img-cdn.gateio.im/webp-social/moments-19442fbb21b7c3306530dfa80e603112.webp[coin]KAIA Price Chart | Source: TradingViewWith the increasing pressure to take profits after several weeks of continuous price increases and the absence of any clear bullish divergence signals, the price range of $0.15–$0.16 has become extremely important.

If this area cannot maintain its support role, the likelihood of a deeper correction is very high, especially when the momentum from the MACD is still leaning towards the bears. The bulls need a strong defense accompanied by a surge in volume in a short period to avoid the next negative scenario.

( GateToken )GT### – Native token of the Gate exchange under selling pressure

GateToken (GT) ended the week with a decrease of 4% from the opening level of $16.67, becoming the second largest declining coin among the tracked assets, as the weak recovery from the previous weekend was quickly replaced by new selling pressure.

The recent recovery marks the first significant rebound of GT in nearly a month, bringing hope for a reversal of the downtrend.

However, the optimistic sentiment did not last long. The bulls could not maintain their position, and the selling pressure quickly pushed the price back to the important support area of $15.

It is noteworthy that the buying force at this support level appears to be quite weak, even when the price hits a short-term bottom. The RSI index has not yet fallen into the oversold zone, while the MACD is still leaning towards a downtrend — indicating that there is still room for GT to continue adjusting before any technical rebound occurs.

If the $15 mark cannot be maintained, the next price zone to watch will be $14 — an area that has previously recorded strong demand.

Curve DAO Token (CRV) ended the week with a 3% decrease, continuing the weakening trend as the price action remains trapped in an increasingly narrow consolidation area.

This is the second consecutive week of decline, as the bulls struggle to regain control.

Opening at $0.55, CRV quickly decreased by 3.23% and slid down to the important support area at $0.50 – where buyers once again attempted to create a reversal, but lacked strong follow-through.

The lack of trading volume and market confidence reflects a weakening demand, even though this price range has been defended multiple times in recent weeks.

At the time of writing, the price is moving sideways within a narrow range for three days, showing signs of compression. If the bulls do not enter the market soon, CRV may continue to slide deeper, heading towards the macro support zone of $0.35 – a level last established in early March.

With the RSI moving sideways and the MACD leaning towards a downward trend, the momentum currently supports the bears. Recovering the $0.55 mark is now crucial to avoid a widespread decline as we head into the third quarter.
