Key TakeawaysInternet Computer (ICP) surged 38% as a technical breakout and ecosystem upgrades fueled momentumDusk Network (DUSK) gained 24.85%, breaking an 8-month downtrend amid EU regulatory progressPIVX jumped 56% in a privacy coin rally, joining others like ZEC and DASH to defy a broader market downtrend Internet Computer (ICP) Extends Rally on Technical Breakout and UpgradesInternet Computer (ICP) rose 38.74% in 24 hours, climbing to $5.250, fueled by a technical breakout above the $3.70–$3.75 resistance zone. Key indicators, including an RSI of 57.7 and a MACD histogram of +0.152, pointed to strong bullish momentum.Trading volume spiked 65% to $779M, amplifying upward volatility as short liquidations at $3.55 accelerated the move. The breakout above the 7-day SMA ($3.38) attracted both algorithmic traders and retail FOMO, while sustained closes above $4.05 (23.6% Fib) may target the next resistance at $5.42 (127.2% Fib extension).On the fundamentals side, the DFINITY Foundation doubled subnet storage capacity to 94 TiB, enabling larger dApps, while Bitcoin DeFi integrations expanded ICP’s cross-chain utility. With Santiment data ranking ICP’s development activity among the highest in the market, confidence in its AI and DeFi hybrid positioning continues to grow.Key level to watch: Holding above $4.05 would confirm the breakout; a drop below $3.70 may weaken short-term sentiment. Dusk Network (DUSK) Jumps 17% on Regulatory Partnerships and Breakout MomentumDusk Network (DUSK) surged 17.53%, clearing an 8-month descending trendline and retesting its 100-day EMA ($0.0739) as new support. The RSI recovery to 44.07 and bullish MACD divergence suggest the beginning of a trend reversal.Trading volume soared 204.86% to $23.23M, driving a turnover ratio of 0.864, which reflects high liquidity and strong trader conviction. Market participants cite EU regulatory progress and institutional partnerships as catalysts. Dusk’s licensing via NPEX and integration with custodian banks mark important steps toward real-world asset (RWA) tokenization in compliance with MiCA frameworks.The upcoming DuskEVM launch (November 2025) aims to merge privacy and EVM compatibility, potentially accelerating institutional adoption.Key level to watch: Sustained closes above the 100-day EMA ($0.0739) support bullish continuation; failure could lead to a retest of $0.068–$0.07. PIVX Leads Privacy Coin Rally with 56% SurgePIVX outperformed the market with a 56.26% 24-hour gain, driven by a privacy-sector rally that also lifted DASH (+53%) and ZEC (+4.4%). Rising regulatory scrutiny on transparent blockchains and the MiCA compliance framework have revived investor interest in privacy-enhanced digital assets.On the technical front, PIVX broke above $0.28 (23.6% Fibonacci level) and its 7-day SMA ($0.26), supported by a 226% volume spike to $47.3M. The RSI (67.6) shows robust bullish momentum while staying below overbought levels.The broader privacy coin market cap now exceeds $25B, with institutional interest strengthening through products like Grayscale’s Zcash Trust and Railgun’s rising TVL.Key level to watch: Support at $0.35 remains crucial if Bitcoin dominance (59.95%) continues rising. Market Outlook: Selective Rotation into Certain AltcoinsWhile the broader crypto market remains under risk-off pressure, the strong performance of ICP, DUSK, and PIVX highlights selective capital rotation into assets backed by clear catalysts—from technical breakouts and ecosystem growth to regulatory narratives.However, with the CMC Crypto Fear & Greed Index at 27 (fear) and several indicators showing high volatility, traders should watch key support levels and on-chain volume trends to gauge whether this bullish momentum can sustain through the week.
