⚠ NOT A MEME COIN

📌 Note: AZTEC Classification

What AZTEC actually is:

Aztec Network - Ethereum Layer 2 privacy solution
Uses zero-knowledge proofs (serious tech infrastructure)
Governance/utility token, not a "meme" in the traditional sense
Listed on Kraken Feb 12, 2026 (explains the +31-37% pump)

Our Position: While AZTEC isn't a "meme coin" (frog/dog themed), it's still a tradeable Kraken asset with strong momentum. Our scanner tracks momentum opportunities across ALL Kraken-listed assets, not just memes. The +31% pump from new listing hype is a valid trading signal.

However, new listings do carry higher volatility risk - see action items for "Days Since Listing" warnings.

✅ System Strengths Validated

Momentum + trending detection working accurately
Spread check correctly identifies tight spreads on Kraken
Chasing/poor entry warning flagged as "very useful"
Risk/reward display with TP/SL and R:R ratio appreciated
Scoring breakdown weights (35% momentum, 25% volume, etc.) deemed logical

🎯 Recommended Improvements

Social/Volume Buzz: Add X/Twitter mentions velocity, Telegram growth, or DexScreener social score (social momentum often leads price on memes)
Asset Classification Tags: Label coins as "Meme", "L1/L2", "DeFi", etc. for transparency (not exclusion)
Liquidity/Depth Check: Add Kraken-specific order book depth or 24h trade count weighting
New Listing Warning: Add "Days Since Listing" indicator for coins listed < 7 days (higher volatility risk)
Multi-Timeframe: Add 4h/1h momentum or 7d trend filter to avoid pure 1-day pumps

💡 Key Insight

Current win rate remains ~3.4% (1/29 signals). These improvements target the gap between our current performance and the v3.0 ML target of 40%+.

The "chasing penalty" already helps, but better filters (especially detecting new listing pumps and adding social signals) should significantly improve accuracy. We track all Kraken momentum opportunities — memes, L2s, DeFi, and everything in between.
