Gmgmgmgm Square Fam!
Happy Monday!
Welcome to the 25th episode of The #ICP Pulse Season 3, your daily dose of all things on $ICP
Now, without further ado, Let's get into today's episodeđ
1ïžâŁ $ICP Price action
Hmmm.
So, that was a local top, indicating the strong resilience of that zone.
Imo, this is still a healthy pullback, considering the market conditions.
As long as we strongly hold around the 200 EMA, we are good.
Now, I am looking for a strong green candle with above-average volume so we can finally take off because the VPVR also shows a relatively low volume requirement for this zone.
Now we wait.
As always NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE, So DYORđ
Note that we aren't going into a deep analysis of our usual stuff, as we have to discuss what happened at the R&D Meeting, which was released on the 27th of September 2024.

đŁTOKEN2049 By Clement Chaikov
Although this segment was initially planned to be conducted by Emilio, Clement will be taking the stage today.
According to Clement,
âĄïžThe foundation took the initiative to host all the ecosystem booths under one umbrella, instead of the traditional approach of sponsoring side events, which they believe is better in terms of ROI.
âĄïžThis has resulted in many big names shaking hands for potential collaborations in the future.
âĄïžIn addition, the foundation was able to partner with many projects ranging from Bitcoin, Ethereum, Aptos, Cosmos, and Solana ecosystems and many government agencies and institutions such as Cambodia Ministry of Science & Tech, Dubai Dept of Economy and Tourism, Western Australian Government, Wanxiang Blockchain Labs, UNDP and many others.
âĄïžThe foundation also hosted around 4 Bitcoin Events, the OLYMPUS founder's Brunch, A KOL Gathering with @Cointelegraph , Killer Whale Live [ Similar to SharkTank], VC startup Connect: SG Edition, and many other Chain Fusion Events.
