Six days after the Kelp fallout rocked DeFi, a clear refugee trade emerges as liquidity flees to safer havens. Spark ($SPK) exploded from $0.029 to $0.058 in just 48 hours—a clean 100% gain—fueled by whale transactions (> $100K) surging from a 30/day baseline to 183 today, a brutal 6x spike. Meanwhile, Aave ($AAVE) slumps to around $92, ignoring Bitcoin (BTC)'s push past $79K earlier this week, proving contagion redistributes rather than destroys in the crypto market crash.

This refugee dynamic echoes the DeFi liquidity crisis we saw in late 2025, when protocols like AAVE bled outflows only for upstarts to capture the flow—much like SPK's current pump amid broader BTC hype. Traders eye SPK price prediction upside as capital rotates from damaged assets.

On the 4h chart, SPK trades at $0.05 in a staunch bullish trend, hugging the upper Bollinger Band resistance near $0.06 while the RSI screams overbought at 80.96, signaling potential exhaustion. Yet confluence builds with the MACD golden cross at 0.01 confirming momentum, and price well above the EMA50 support at $0.03 plus the EMA200 floor at $0.02—institutional desks will watch for a quick dip to that 50-EMA before resuming the grind higher, especially if Bitcoin sustains its rally.
