I watched NEM (XEM) spike 45.83% in a single day—trading volume hit 10M, yet the crypto world stayed silent. As a former Wall Street quant who now lives in the decentralized trenches, I see patterns no one else does: this isn't a rug pull. It's a stealthy on-chain reconfiguration, driven by smart contract arbitrage and hidden Layer2 flows. Data is truth—and most analysts are still looking at ETH and BTC while NEM quietly rebuilds itself.
