Useless Coin (USELESS) was among the best-performing memecoins of the day as crypto markets rebounded following the death of Iran’s supreme leader. USELESS is up over 17% in 24 hours, outpacing the entire crypto market, which is up 4.71%.
As war tensions eased, capital flowed into memecoin alongside others like Bitcoin (BTC), which soared as high as $67,000. So who was responsible for this capital injection that day?
Capital inflows explode
Data from Nansen AI showed that purchases and liquidity had exploded over the past day.
For example, Top PnL traders loaded $75,000 in net flows, which represents a 3x spike compared to average daily inflows. Simultaneous purchases of four portfolios in this tranche indicate a coordinated conviction.
The whales haven’t been left behind either.
Their net flow of $60,000 exceeded their normal purchase by 1.6 times, with holdings increasing by $2 million, to $77 million. These orders arrived in pieces averaging over 340,000 USEFUL pieces for each whale.

The new capital also embraced the useless despite its “futility”.
In fact, the new portfolios added $351,000, which represents an increase of more than 220%.
Additionally, holdings of 4.1 million USELESS tokens remained untouched by the smart money. FX outflows and dormancy from smart money wallets indicated less immediate selling pressure.
Wintermute supported the active trading liquidity of memecoin. This is despite bots selling off when the price hit $0.045.
All this influx of capital explains why memecoin has rallied so strongly. Will the rally be sustainable in the future?
Will USELESS Coin continue to see more upside?
On the charts, the day’s rally was evident, from a low of $0.036 to just over $0.045. The sideways range’s lower support level at $0.036 coincided with an order block created on February 14.
The entire range move was around 29%, although USELESS had started to pull back at press time. Memecoin appeared to be heading towards $0.036 again and seller momentum was building, as shown by the MACD.
Additionally, the Choppiness Index (CHOP) was up at 49.26, indicating that the current rally was losing its trendiness. This reinforced that USESSESS was still trading in a sideways range.
A breach of the $0.045 zone could propel it to $0.055, while a break below $0.036 would amplify the decline. However, as analyzed earlier, there was previous resistance at $0.05.

Overall, memecoin was trading in a key decision zone where a breakout in either direction would determine its next trajectory.
Final summary
- USELESS grew by over 17% thanks to the influx of capital from top PnL traders, whales and new wallets.
- USELESS Coin price faced two critical tests at the $0.036 and $0.045 levels.
