😐 «The crash of the OM token is the result of betrayal within the Mantra team,» - OddEyeResearch

◽️A group of insiders controlled >90% of tokens - they managed volumes on CEX in a coordinated manner, which signals market manipulation.

◽️The manipulations went through Binance, while the price pumping coincided with large token inputs/outputs.

◽️Initially, the team wanted to release a new AUM token and attract $11,000,000 of investment.

◽️After the advice of a third party, they decided to use the old token for the pump, allegedly in order to increase the chances of listing.

Manipulations in 2023 and 2024:

- December 2023: pump from $20m to $100m FDV

- February 2024: pump from $200m to $1b FDV

In both cases, there was a sharp outflow of OM from the exchanges before the price rise and the return of tokens back after.

CEO of CryptoQuant: «Market manipulation is a crime.»

📊 Matrixport: The inflow of stablecoins to exchanges has slowed down, but continues to grow - this signals the continued growth of the crypto industry.

Inflows are growing against the background of uncertainty in traditional markets (stocks and bonds) - perhaps the crypt becomes a less dependent (uncorrelated) asset.

Trade war and tariff disputes increase interest in cryptocurrency - its potential applications are becoming more attractive.

The general attitude is optimistic about the future of cryptocurrency.

🤔 The Mantra team has published a detailed report on the reason for the collapse of the OM token - more details

✔ The Mantra team did NOT sell tokens during the crisis.

✔ Significant volumes of #OM were used as collateral on exchanges.

✔ Forced closure of positions (liquidation) occurred during a period of low liquidity (April 13, 21:00 Moscow time).

✔ This caused a chain reaction: first liquidations → price pressure → decrease in the OM token → new liquidations → additional sales → strengthening of the downward trend.

✔ There was a significant difference in the price of OM between the OKX and Binance exchanges (from 21:00 Moscow time).

✔ The data indicate mass liquidation of OM traders on CEX. Information from partner exchanges will help clarify the situation (the investigation continues).

⚠️ The founder of ENS (Ethereum Name Service) warns of a phishing attack via Google (CT)

Fraudsters use Google’s infrastructure to send fake notices with a summons.

Such letters are checked by DKIM, so Gmail perceives them as legitimate - they even fall into the same correspondence as real notifications from Google.

The letter contains a link to «support», which leads to a fake page created through Google Sites. Credentials are most likely to be theft on the site.
