Heat Check: Tokens That Spiked in the Last 6 Hours — RPL, ESP, OM

Rocket Pool (RPL) +52.27%

Rocket Pool’s RPL extended a sharp rally after news tied to its “Saturn devnet” launch circulated, with reports citing a ~20% jump over 24 hours and more than 50% over a broader recent window. Separate coverage also noted a pullback as whales reportedly sold into strength, with RPL quoted around $46.60 and down ~2.4% over 24 hours at that time.

#RPL is the token associated with Rocket Pool, an Ethereum-based liquid staking protocol. One report highlighted that since the Atlas upgrade went live, there has been a surge in activity/interest around the protocol, while another framed the latest move as momentum driven by the Saturn devnet narrative. The mixed headlines—“extends rally” versus “plummets as whales sell”—suggest the move has been volatile and sensitive to large-holder positioning.

Given the combination of a strong run-up and reports of whale selling near the top, the near-term setup looks vulnerable to further pullbacks if profit-taking persists. My estimate: RPL is more likely to cool off or chop sideways than continue a clean, uninterrupted rise from here.

Espresso (ESP) +12.63%

Espresso’s native ESP token launch drew attention after reports said 10% of supply was airdropped to reward stakers and early adopters. Another report described the launch as a sharp liquidity event, noting ESP debuted around a $275M valuation but later traded around a ~$32.7M market cap after the airdrop unlocked significant liquidity.

#ESP is newly launched and the price action described in coverage reads like a classic post-airdrop volatility cycle: initial excitement, heavy unlocking, and rapid repricing as recipients and early liquidity providers adjust exposure. Multiple headlines tied broader market chatter to the token’s debut and distribution mechanics rather than to long-running fundamentals. With the market cap/valuation swing highlighted in reporting, the dominant driver appears to be supply hitting the market and price discovery under stress.

Until the post-airdrop selling pressure clearly stabilizes, ESP looks at risk of further downside or high volatility rather than a steady climb. My estimate: ESP is more likely to fall or remain extremely choppy in the near term than to continue rising smoothly.

MANTRA (OM) +7.64%

MANTRA’s OM token surged after exchange-related catalysts, with reporting citing a 33% jump tied to MEXC announcing support for a token swap. Other coverage also referenced a larger one-day spike (over 50%) with a peak around $0.82, underscoring how quickly OM has been moving on listing/migration-style headlines.

#OM has a history of token migration context (with references to a move to a new version), and the latest rally was framed around market-structure events—exchange support and swap mechanics—rather than a single product release. Another headline also pointed to a $25M OM token buyback, which can add a supportive narrative, though the immediate price catalyst cited was the MEXC swap support. Taken together, OM’s surge looks driven by exchange accessibility and token-structure developments that often create short bursts of demand.

After a sharp exchange-driven spike, OM often faces a “sell-the-news” risk once the initial rush fades. My estimate: OM is more likely to retrace part of the move (or consolidate) than to keep rising at the same pace in the immediate next leg.
