Berachain price crashed to a record low on Friday as the stablecoins in its ecosystem continued their recent plunge. The BERA token fell to a low of $3.27, down by over 64% from its highest point this year. Its market cap has plunged from almost $1 billion to $357 million.

Stablecoin Market Cap Plunges on Berachain

Berachain price crashed in a high-volume environment, a sign that many holders have started selling their tokens. CoinMarketCap data shows that the 24-hour volume jumped by 115% to $80 million.

One of the top reasons for the sell-off is that the amount of stablecoins in the network plunged to $578 million, their lowest level since February. The figure has dropped from a record high of over $1.38 billion.

Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies pegged to fiat currencies like the US dollar. They are an essential part of a blockchain because they are the currencies used to settle transactions. As such, the falling trend is a sign that activity in Berachain’s network has waned.

More data shows that the volume of assets handled by DEX networks on Berachain has continued falling in the past few weeks. After peaking at $157 million earlier, the figure has dropped to $62 million.

The total value locked on the Berachain network has continued falling, moving from over $6.5 billion earlier this month to $5.3 billion. Infrared Finance’s assets have fallen by 28% in the last 30 days to $1.42 billion, while Dolomite has dropped by 17%.

A top concern among Berachain holders is the upcoming unlocking of tokens. The network will unlock 10 million tokens worth $32 million in May. After that, its next big unlock will happen in February when 63.2 million tokens will come online. This will be followed by monthly releases of 13.28 million.

Berachain Price Analysis

The four-hour chart shows that the BERA price has been in a freefall in the past few months as it plunged from a high of $9.16 in March to an all-time low of $3.172. It has moved below all moving averages, a sign that bears remain in control.

The coin is also attempting to move below the all-time low of $3.172. Dropping below that level will invalidate the double-bottom pattern that has been forming. The Average Directional Index (ADX) has jumped to 30, a sign that the bearish momentum is continuing.

Therefore, the Berachain price will likely continue falling as sellers target the next key support at $3. A drop below that support will point to more downside to $2.5.
