This week in crypto showed mixed and volatile price action.  Bitcoin [BTC] and Ethereum [ETH] moved sideways. Ethereum staking activity also drew attention after a rise in unstaking, adding to uncertainty about investor positioning. In altcoins, there was strong rotation. Some tokens saw sharp gains driven by momentum, while others dropped heavily as profit-taking kicked in.  Overall, the market stayed choppy, with selective rallies but no broad direction across major assets. Weekly winners Terra Classic [LUNC]  - Legacy token jumped back toward pre-October crash levels  Terra Classic [LUNC] led the weekly gains with a 35%+ rally. This move also marks four straight weekly bullish closes, raising questions about how strong the continuation trend really is. On the technical side, LUNC’s RSI sat near 80 as of writing, which points to overbought conditions and suggests the market could cool off if profit-taking picks up and supply increases. But this week stands out more than the previous ones. As the chart shows, the 35% rally pushed LUNC above the $0.00008 level, which acted as a strong resistance zone in Q4 last year after the October crash. Psychologically, this puts LUNC in a stronger spot to continue its uptrend into next week. If the trend holds, the 7.5% intraday pullback may just look like a short-term reset, shaking out weak hands and overextended positions. Bulls already showed strength by absorbing supply pressure twice this week, which supports continued upside and keeps a potential move toward $0.0001 in play. Humanity Protocol [H]  - Identity infrastructure token reinforced bullish conviction  Humanity Protocol [H] came in as the second biggest weekly winner with a 25%+ rally. This move follows last week’s strong 44% surge, showing that bullish momentum continues to build rather than fade. On the weekly chart, H has now broken above the $0.15 resistance level that AMBCrypto flagged earlier. That breakout strengthens the short-term structure, with price now moving toward the $0.20 resistance zone. If momentum holds, the probability of a clean continuation increases. From a technical perspective, RSI was in a controlled range as of writing, which suggests the rally hasn’t fully overheated yet. That keeps the bullish structure intact and supports the idea that momentum could extend further before any major cooldown. Bittensor [TAO] - AI token reinforced strength of its floor this week Bittensor [TAO] took the third spot among weekly winners with a 13.5% rally. However, unlike the other top performers, TAO’s chances of extending this move in the near term look less certain. On the technical side, TAO’s two-week gain sits just above 20%, so the strength of its $250 floor hasn’t really been tested aggressively, especially after three straight weeks of downside pressure. In simple terms, a breakout above $300 in a single move looks unlikely right now. Instead, price may need to build strength around current levels first. So, a reset could come before any sustained continuation. Other notable winners Outside the majors, altcoin movers also stood out this week. Unibase [UB] led the action with a 294% move, followed by RIV Coin [RIV] gaining 233% and BUILDon [B] climbing by 170%, rounding out the list of biggest movers. Weekly losers MemeCore [M] - Meme token entered a textbook post-bullish cooldown phase  MemeCore [M] led this week’s losers with a 31% drop. But unlike a full capitulation that usually shows up in bear markets, this move looks more like a normal cooldown after a strong run. On the technical side, the pullback wiped out last week’s 25% gains and brought the price back toward mid-April levels. At press time, RSI also cooled off after pushing above 80, showing momentum has reset from overbought conditions. Moreover, this correction comes after six straight weeks of gains that pushed M above the pre-October crash resistance near $3, so this pullback looks more like a reset within the trend rather than a full reversal. If the trend continues, M could still build toward a move to $5. However, unless it consolidates and forms a short-term floor, that breakout may not happen yet. Otherwise, further weakness could drag the price lower, making the next few weeks key for direction. World Liberty Financial [WLFI] -  DeFi governance token broke a key support zone  World Liberty Financial [WLFI] came in second among weekly losers with a 25% correction. While it lagged MemeCore in size, the chart impact looks more bearish for WLFI. Since mid-January, WLFI has kept printing lower lows, with each bounce failing to hold and turn into a proper recovery. This week followed the same pattern, reinforcing a weak and bearish structure. After two weeks of consolidation around $0.07, WLFI broke below that support and formed another lower low. If this structure doesn’t improve, the next breakdown could push WLFI toward new lows below $0.02. DeXe [DEXE] - Governance protocol token retraced back to mid-April levels  De
