The bitcoin BTC$92,123.27 price is little changed over the past 24 hours despite a wave of sell pressure across multiple crypto exchanges.

Token talk
By Oliver Knight
The altcoin market gave back much of Wednesday’s gains over the past 24 hours as ether ETH$2,954.65 slipped by 3.4%, dragging several other tokens down with it.
CoinMarketCap’s “altcoin season” indicator fell by five points to 26/100 as bitcoin remained flat. The CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index posted a 0.66% drop.
There were a few outliers to the bearish market trend, in particular ATOM$3.0189 rose by more than 10% in the period as it staged a technical breakout, while zcash ZEC$671.33 extended its two-month long ascent with a gain of 8.7%.
Base founder Jesse Pollak said he planned to issue a token on Thursday under the ticker JESSE. The move attracted skepticism because Pollak had previously shared a number of of “content tokens,” all of which rapidly lost value after being unveiled.
“Content coins track short term attention, creator coins track long term content,” Pollak wrote on X in response to concerns. “Value paired together they create a flywheel that puts ownership, control, and upside back in the hands of creators and their followers. With $jesse, my flywheel will be complete.”
Memecoins and viral tokens, of which JESSE could be considered an example, have underperformed the wider market in recent months. The CoinDesk Memecoin index (CDMEME) has dropped by more than 40% since September, while the CoinDesk20 is down by around 30% in the same period.
