As Bitcoin proceeds toward the major $60K after crashing over 2.25% a day, it has triggered panic among investors. Hedera price has been declining for the past three months, has weakened more, and crashed nearly 5.03% intraday.
The weakness in the broader market has added more to the worse. HBAR fell 12% in the last couple of sessions after the $0.064 support was broken. The panic in the broader markets was hit the hardest on the altcoins, as several altcoins have loomed over 5% today.
Hedera is the most used, sustainable, enterprise-grade public network for the decentralized economy, enabling individuals and businesses to create powerful decentralized applications.
Hedera (HBAR) is the native cryptocurrency of Hedera Hashgraph, a platform positioned as an alternative to traditional blockchain technology, aiming to excel in speed, efficiency, and security.
Open Interest Data Suggests Long Unwinding
Per Santiment, there has been a similar drop in the open interest contracts and the price in the recent sessions. The open interest contracts have dropped from $23 Million to $20 Million, losing nearly 13% over the week.
The drop in the OI data highlights the possibility of long unwindings among the traders and investors.
Moreover, the trading volume has dropped by 17.04% to $51.46 Million a day. It has a live market capitalization of $2.02 Billion and ranks 37th in the crypto-verse.
Out of 50 billion HBARs, nearly 35.8 billion are in circulation. This is nearly 71.7% of the total supply. Additionally, the volume-to-market cap ratio of 2.54% suggested low volatility.
Hedera Price Fall May Halt at this Level
The daily chart highlighted a sharp crash in Hedera price. This happened after the breakdown of the recent support at the $0.064 level. At press time, HBAR was exchanging hands close to $0.056, losing nearly 5.03% a day.
However, few analysts hope that a sharp crash in Hedera may pause the next psychological support of $0.051. On the lower side, theprice may fall 7% more till it reaches the next support of $0.051.
