Since the crypto market sentiment turned bearish after a few weeks of improvement, many cryptocurrency prices have retraced. Many coins have barely held their gains, while others have surrendered the past month’s gains to the bears.
Even the Synthetix token is not safe from this downtrend, but surprisingly, it managed to sustain some of its gains over the past 30 days. At press time, SNX is up by nearly 8% in the past month. Initially, It was higher than that but later reduced as the daily decline pushed stronger.
New Ecosystem Improvements Sustaining Synthetix’s Price Gains While Others Decline
Digital asset prices rely partly on ecosystem improvements and utilities and largely on macroeconomic situations. The pressure on the coins is higher now that extreme macroeconomic conditions and external factors have affected the global cryptocurrency market cap with bearish sentiments. The increased uncertainty and fear in the market as the Feds continue their aggressive interest rate hikes have raised the bar for ecosystem innovations to sustain crypto asset prices.
