Best DEX tokens to buy as CEX coins plunge

The cryptocurrency industry is having its Lehman moment as one of its biggest players collapses. On Tuesday, FTX, the third-biggest crypto exchanges in the world, announced that it will be acquired by Binance. As a result, Sam Bankman Fried has seen his net worth crash from over $16 billion to almost nothing.

Analysts now believe that decentralized exchanges (DEX) will do well in the coming years. Besides, DEXes have done well during this crypto winter even as CEX companies like Voyager Digital, Celsius, and Vauld have collapsed. So, here are the best DEX tokens to buy as CEX tokens plunge.

Uniswap (UNI)

Uniswap is one of the oldest and is the biggest decentralized exchanges in the world. It exists in Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, and Celo. In a given day, Uniswap handles cryptocurrencies worth over $500 million.

Uniswap has a total value locked (TVL) of more than $3.8 billion, making it the 7th biggest DeFi protocol in the world. UNI, its token, has a market cap of more than $4.3 billion. It is a good investment because of its strong market share in the DEX industry.

Further, Uniswap is expanding its market share in the industry. Its ecosystem is also growing, with some of the top applications being InstaDapp, PoolTogether, TokenPocket, and Parsec Finance among clothes.

Will MATIC rally higher after Bepop launches its trading features on Polygon?

MATIC, the native coin of the Polygon network, is down by more than 20% today despite Bepop’s recent launch on the blockchain.

MATIC has lost more than 20% of its value over the last 24 hours. The native coin of the Polygon network has been underperforming since the start of the week and could experience further sell-off in the near term.

The poor performance comes despite Polygon announcing a few hours ago that Bebop, a new decentralised trading platform, has launched on Polygon.

According to Polygon, Bebop gives users an advantage in fast-moving markets by allowing them to enter or exit multiple positions at once while saving money on network fees.

MATIC’s plunge comes as the broader cryptocurrency market experienced a massive sell-off. The FTX struggles over the last couple of days have wiped out billions of dollars from the market.

The total cryptocurrency market cap is below $900 billion for the first time in a month, down by 10% in the last 24 hours. Bitcoin dropped below the $18k level but has slightly bounced back and is down by more than 8% today.

Ether is also down by more than 15% today and is now trading around $1,200 per coin.

Key levels to watch

The MATIC/USD 4-hour chart is extremely bearish, as Polygon has been underperforming over the last 24 hours.

MATIC/USD Chart By TradingView

The MACD line dipped below the neutral zone earlier this week, indicating that the bears are currently in control. The 14-day RSI of 31 shows that MATIC could enter the oversold region if the selling pressure continues.

At press time, MATIC is trading at $0.9046 per coin. If the sell-off continues, MATIC could drop toward the $0.805 support level for the first time in three weeks.

In the event of an extended selling pressure, MATIC could drop below the $0.6470 support level over the coming hours or days.

Solana price: Analyst explains why SOL is ‘getting killed’

Solana (SOL) is down more than 25% in the past 24 hours as crypto pops amid shocking news developments around the crypto exchange FTX.

SOL price dumps 25% as analyst points to Binance/FTX crypto news

The SOL/USD pair, which was priced above $32 early Tuesday, has touched lows of $24 as selling pressure across the crypto market saw all the major cryptocurrencies turn red on news Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX was in trouble and Binance had moved in to help by agreeing an acquisition deal.

Ran Neuner, of CNBC Crypto Trader and founder of Crypto Banter, pointed to SOL’s price woes as related to what a Binance deal for FTX means for Solana.

“Solana [is] getting killed,” he tweeted as crypto prices across the market fell. According to the analyst, the market was just realising that Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao “now owns 10% of the tokens and that he would rather support the BNB chain than SOL.”

He added:

“Also Solana just lost all the support and investment that FTX and @SBF_FTX were making in the ecosystem.”

Binance to acquire FTX

Binance is set to acquire the FTX crypto exchange in a surprise turn of events on Tuesday.

Just a day after FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried said his company was “fine” and would continue to be so, FTX and Binance have reached a deal to have Changpeng Zhao’s company buy FTX.

Both the Binance chief and SBF tweeted the development, with reference to a liquidity crunch that has seen FTX come full circle as a crypto exchange. Zhao tweeted:

“This afternoon, FTX asked for our help. There is a significant liquidity crunch. To protect users, we signed a non-binding LOI, intending to fully acquire http://FTX.com and help cover the liquidity crunch. We will be conducting a full DD in the coming days.”

Bankman-Fried confirmed the deal was on the table, also tweeting earlier on Tuesday:

BIT price on a slippery slope amid fears that Alameda dumped millions of BIT tokens

The price of BIT, BitDAO’s native token, saw a massive drop in the early hours of November 8 where it hit a daily low of $0.3031 before slightly rebounding as the day progressed. At press time, BIT was trading at $0.3888, a drop of about 4.48% in the past 24 hours.

The sudden price drop was a result of fears that Alameda Research, a sister firm to FTX that has been at the centre of the ongoing FTX financial crisis, had dumped about 100 million BIT tokens.

BitDAO has requested proof of funds from Alameda

BitDAO signed a token swap and hold an agreement with quant crypto trading firm Alameda Research on November 2021. Following the agreement, BitDAO swapped 100 million BIT tokens for 3,362,315 FTX tokens (FTT). The two entities had agreed not to sell the tokens for the next three years, which would be up to November 2, 2024.

BitDAO is now threatening to terminate the agreement following fears that Alameda has breached the agreement by dumping about 100 million of the BIT tokens it held after the swap. BitDAO has today filed a proposal asking Alameda to provide proof of funds through an on-chain address.

BitDAO has asked Alameda to respond within the next 24 hours, failure to which BitDAO could take action with the over 3.3 million FTT tokens that it holds after the swap.

In the released BitDAO communication, BitDAO stated:

“If this request is not fulfilled, and if sufficient alternative proof or response is not provided, it will be up to the BitDAO community to decide (vote, or any other emergency action) how to deal with the $FTT in the BitDAO Treasury.”

Alameda says it has nothing to do with the BIT plunge

Responding to BitDAO, Alameda CEO Caroline Ellison has said that the firm has nothing to do with the BIT price fall. The CEO said:

“Busy at the moment but that wasn’t us, will get you proof of funds when things calm down.”

It is unclear whether Alameda will be able to provide the proof of funds within the 24 hours ultimatum that BitDAO gave. In the event the proof of funds is not produced, BitDAO may opt to sell its FTT tokens which would only complicate things for the already stressed native token of FTX exchange.
