Over $227 million of OM tokens transferred to cryptocurrency exchanges preceding a 90% price drop of Mantra DAO
Breaking News: OM Token Crash - Mystery Deepens
In a shocking turn of events, the popular cryptocurrency token Mantra's OM plummeted over the weekend, shedding an astounding 94% of its value! And the culprit behind this crash remains a hot topic of debate.
Blockchain intelligence platform, Lookonchain, reports that before the OM crash (since April 7th), around 17 wallets transferred 43.6 million OM tokens, which totaled approximately $227 million at the time, to various digital asset exchanges. These exchanges include the notable ones like OKX and Binance, according to Lookonchain's data.
The question everyone is asking, "Who dropped the price of OM?" Well, Lookonchain believes that these large deposits might have triggered the sudden price drop. But, identifying the exact individuals or groups responsible remains a challenge.
It's essential to note that substantial funds linked to Laser Digital, a strategic investor in Mantra, were among these transfers. However, Laser Digital denies any involvement in the OM price collapse.
In a statement, Laser Digital asserted that assertions circulating on social media linking them to "investor selling" are factually incorrect and misleading. The firm clarified that their wallets did not deposit any OM tokens to OKX, emphasizing that the wallets being referenced to OKX are not Laser wallets.
On the other hand, Mantra CEO JP Mullin points the finger at crypto exchanges, accusing them of negligence. He suggests that they closed large positions during low-liquidity hours, contributing to the crash.
As of now, OM is trading for $0.595, down 32.5% within the last 24 hours. The saga continues, and the truth about the OM crash is yet to be unveiled.
