A closely tracked crypto strategist says smart contract platforms Ethereum (ETH) and Avalanche (AVAX) and three other crypto assets are flashing signs of strength in a market that’s trading in a narrow range.
In a new strategy session, pseudonymous crypto analyst Cheds says that he sees Ethereum creating a bullish continuation pattern but notes that bulls must take out ETH’s immediate resistance to sustain its momentum.
“You have to start a bull pennant usually with a series of inside bars. I wouldn’t completely discount bulls here… It’s a nice little push by bulls and then kind of a normal pause and consolidation… You just wait for clearance of $3,000.”

“AVAX bounced off of what was the pivot point [$65]… We’ve now bounced into the level that is a train track switch to become bullish. In my opinion, if we get back above this $90, I think we probably see a little bull run.”

According to the crypto analyst, LUNA is printing a large cup and handle formation, which is a bullish continuation pattern. Based on Cheds’ chart, LUNA must take out its resistance above $100 to trigger a breakout rally.

“If we can get back above $49 and certainly $50, you want to ride this trend. You want to go long.”

Source: Cheds/YouTube According to Cheds, the last coin showing relative strength is Near (NEAR), a developer-focused blockchain designed for scalability and stability.
The crypto strategist notes that NEAR is clear to take out a key resistance area.
“NEAR is interesting. [I’d] like to see NEAR certainly above $12. It’s been one of those relative strength participants.”

Who Funds the Agents?

**Summary: Who Funds AI Agents?** OpenAI recently shut down a feature allowing AI agents to shop for users, highlighting the challenge of creating a secure and regulated environment for agent-driven transactions. While payment infrastructure exists, a crucial governance layer—defining spending limits, fraud detection, tax handling, and return policies—is largely missing. The potential is enormous: AI agents already processed $73M across 176M transactions last year, with McKinsey forecasting this could grow to $3-5T in global consumer commerce by 2030. The core competition isn't just about processing payments, which can be very cheap (especially with crypto-based settlement), but about controlling the rules that govern agent spending. Key players like Stripe and Coinbase are racing to dominate this governance layer. Stripe's acquisition of wallet provider Privy allows it to set spending policies, identity checks, and human-in-the-loop approvals directly at the wallet level. Similarly, Coinbase's stack, including its x402 protocol and AgentKit, embeds governance rules. This vertical integration across settlement, wallet, and governance layers is becoming the dominant strategy. Control over the governance layer is where significant future value lies. If agents handle trillions in transactions, even a small fee for managing compliance, fraud prevention, and policy enforcement could generate billions in annual revenue. The companies that successfully integrate across the payment stack will capture value from idle agent balances, transaction fees, and governance services, positioning themselves as the foundational banks of the AI agent economy.

A Nation Blocks Chips, a Giant Buys a Nuclear Power Plant: Why It's Time to Seriously Consider DeAI

**Title: Great Powers Blockade Chips, Giants Buy Nuclear Plants: Why It's Time to Seriously Consider DeAI** In May 2026, the US closed loopholes for Chinese firms to acquire advanced NVIDIA chips via overseas subsidiaries. That same month, Kenya halted a $1B geothermal data center project involving Microsoft, fearing its immense energy consumption. Meanwhile, Huawei announced mass production of its Ascend AI chip. These disparate events underscore a new reality: the competition for computing power ("compute") has escalated beyond the tech industry, becoming a geopolitical and infrastructural battleground. A new era of oligopoly is forming, with control over the AI stack—from GPU chips (NVIDIA) and cloud platforms (AWS, Azure, Google Cloud) to foundational models (OpenAI, Anthropic)—concentrating in a few Western "AI Octopus" corporations. This centralization creates systemic risks: pricing power and platform lock-in for users, infrastructure fragility, and a widening "compute divide" that threatens to marginalize nations without independent AI capacity. An "AI Iron Curtain" is deepening through export controls. In response, some nations like Saudi Arabia and the UAE are investing heavily to buy compute power, aiming to transition from oil to AI economies. The EU seeks to triple its compute capacity by 2030 to reduce dependency. However, the spending gap is vast, with four US tech giants alone planning ~$750B in AI capex for 2026. The race is increasingly constrained by energy, with AI tasks consuming up to 1000x more power than web searches, pushing firms to even acquire nuclear plants. This landscape is fueling interest in Decentralized AI (DeAI). It proposes a third way: using open protocols to coordinate a global network of idle GPUs, independent developers, and data centers, creating an AI infrastructure without a single controlling entity. Leveraging blockchain and cryptographic verification, DeAI aims to break market concentration, disperse energy demands, reduce geopolitical dependencies, and enhance transparency. While still nascent in performance and stability, DeAI's core promise is not immediate superiority but providing a crucial alternative architecture to resist monopoly, censorship, and centralized power. As specialized AI hardware costs fall and open-source models flourish, the window to build this foundation is open. The very existence of such competition serves as a vital check against the inevitable abuse of concentrated power.
