rise as top coins fell?<\/h2>\n<p>Bitcoin dropped to under $90k on Tuesday, pulling most of the crypto market lower as liquidations cascaded across the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p>But as ETH, XRP, and Solana all dipped, Tezos defied the trend as its price climbed to above $0.63.<\/p>\n<p>Gains continued into early Wednesday as the market digested announcements from TenX, a publicly listed blockchain infrastructure firm.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">We\u2019re pleased to announce that we&#8217;ve added Tez ( <a

$3.25 million and funded by cash from an August 2025 financing round, forms part of a strategic staking partnership with the Tezos Foundation.<\/p>\n<p>According to details, the deal aims to bolster TenX\u2019s validator operations on the Tezos network, generating staking yields of 8-10% while enhancing network security and decentralization.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis is a long-term value decision, not a short-term trade,\u201d Mat Cybula, CEO of TenX, noted.<\/p>\n<p>He added:<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTezos is built for sustainability and upgradability, and we want TenX to be aligned with ecosystems that

emerging as a pivotal psychological and structural support.<\/p>\n<p>Indicators like the daily RSI at 56 signal momentum that could shed the bearish outlook.<\/p>\n<p>However, the MACD points to potential sell pressure, which could be compounded by high volatility across altcoins.<\/p>\n<p>On the weekly chart, the bullish long-term trend remains.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_359001\"
