$OM
2/6
Okay, folks, let's talk about a bumpy ride.
In April 2025, MANTRA's very own OM token took a massive hit, with its price plummeting by around 90% in just a few hours.
That's the kind of drop that makes your stomach do flips! This crash wiped out billions of dollars in market value, and understandably, it shook investor confidence to its core.
MANTRA's team pointed the finger at "reckless" forced liquidations by centralized exchanges (CEXs), especially during a weekend when trading activity tends to be lower.
Basically, when some traders who had borrowed money to trade OM couldn't meet their obligations, the exchanges automatically sold off their OM to cover the debts, and MANTRA argues this happened in a way that drove the price down further than it should have.
But here's the thing: while those liquidations definitely played a role, there were other factors at play,creating a perfect storm.
The Tokenomics Twist: Right before MANTRA launched its own blockchain the mainnet, they overhauled the OM token's economics.
This involved doubling the number of tokens in existence and switching to an inflationary model, meaning the number of tokens could keep increasing over time. Some analysts think this made the token more vulnerable to price drops.
Liquidity Limbo: The OM token market wasn't exactly what you'd call liquid.
In the financial world, liquidity refers to how easily you can buy or sell something without causing big price swings.
In OM's case, there weren't enough buyers to absorb the sudden wave of selling from those liquidations, which made the price crash even harder.

Concentration Concerns: There were worries that a relatively small number of people held a large chunk of the OM tokens. This kind of token concentration can make a cryptocurrency more susceptible to price manipulation
In Chapter 3, we will look at MANTRA's make-or-break moment and whether they can bounce back.

MANTRA's Make-or-Break Moment Can They Bounce Back?

$XRP
Date May 22, 2026
1.Overall Trend: Bearish Markdown / Oversold
An in-depth look at XRP/USDT across multiple timeframes reveals a market currently dominated by bearish momentum.
However, underlying macro indicators suggest we may be approaching a critical inflection point. Here is the technical breakdown from the intraday charts to the daily view
2. Short-Term Outlook 15min & 30min Charts
The immediate price action remains firmly in the hands of the bears. Both the 15-minute and 30-minute charts display pronounced bearish trends characterized by consecutive red candles.
3. Momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) reflect heavy selling pressure.
4. Volume. The On-Balance Volume (OBV) continues its downward trajectory, confirming that significant capital is exiting the asset and validating the intraday downtrend.
5. Medium-Term Outlook 4H Chart
Zooming out to the 4-hour chart, the bearish narrative persists.
The RSI has dipped significantly, and the MACD has executed a clear bearish crossover, signaling sustained downward momentum.
Similar to the micro timeframes, a notable decline in OBV confirms a heavy, sustained outflow of capital. This indicates that the mid-term trend has not yet found a solid floor.
6. Macro Outlook Daily Chart
The daily chart provides the most nuanced picture of the current market structure. While the price remains locked in a broader downtrend below key moving averages, two underlying signals demand close attention.
Extreme Oversold Conditions: Both the daily RSI and the Williams %R are flagging deep oversold levels. Notably, the Williams %R has plunged to -94.17.
Potential Bullish Divergence: While the MACD confirms the prevailing bearish momentum, the daily OBV is holding relatively steady. This flattening of the OBV against a declining price creates a potential divergence, suggesting that the actual volume of selling pressure may finally be exhausting itself.
The Verdict
XRP/USDT remains in a strong bearish phase across the shorter and medium timeframes. Traders should exercise caution and avoid trying to "catch a falling knife." However, the deep oversold readings on the daily chart, combined with a stabilizing OBV, suggest the bears are likely running out of steam.
Actionable Insight.
Monitor the daily OBV closely. If the OBV remains flat or begins ticking upward while the price consolidates, it could precede a strong bounce or a period of accumulation. Until a clear reversal pattern is confirmed on the shorter timeframes, strict risk management remains paramount.
