Why Algorand is up 1.2% in the last hour

Analysis

Algorand (ALGO) rose 1.2% over the past hour even as news broke that the Algorand Foundation cut 25% of its staff, a move framed as part of broader crypto-industry layoffs (Decrypt). The market may be interpreting the layoffs as a cost-cutting step rather than a negative catalyst, limiting downside and allowing a modest rebound.
