Polygon (MATIC) Price Drops 18% Amid Concerns Over Token Migration Plans

The price of Polygon (MATIC) has fallen by 18% since the announcement of plans to migrate to a new native token called "POL" on July 13. This has caused uncertainty among investors, as evidenced by a decrease in the number of new MATIC wallet addresses being opened on the Polygon network.

Whale investors have also taken bearish positions on MATIC, selling off 23 million coins between July 18 and July 27. The bearish trend could continue if MATIC loses the $0.70 support level, but initial support may come from the 10,000 investors who bought 270 million MATIC tokens for a minimum price of $0.69.

This data does not include algorithmic stablecoins, whose value is maintained through algorithmic mechanisms rather than being linked to external assets such as fiat currency or gold.Crypto analyst Patrick Scott believes this is a sign of "new money flowing into the cryptocurrency space." In his X post on August 26th, he wrote, "Stablecoins have reached a new all-time high. The total market value of stablecoins, excluding algorithmic stablecoins, has now reached a historical high, surpassing the previous high in early 2022." When asked by another user if institutional investment was driving this increase, although he did not speculate on the reason for the increase, he did point out that "retail trading has been ongoing for at least eight months."According to CCData's report in July, stablecoin trading volume decreased by 8.35% last month due to reduced trading activity on centralized exchanges. The report noted that concerns about the future of USDT in Europe due to MiCA regulations were one of the reasons for the decrease in stablecoin trading activity on centralized exchanges in July. According to CoinMarketCap's data, this trend has continued into August, with current market trading volume slightly above $46 billion.
