I watched NEM (XEM) swing from $0.00362 to $0.002558 in just 24 hours—not a crash, but a whisper of systemic unease. As a quant analyst who sees code as poetry and blockchain as emotional ledger, I asked: Is this volatility a market flaw… or a mirror of our collective anxiety? This isn’t noise—it’s signal. And if you’ve ever lost your conviction in an asset no one else believes in, you’re not alone.
