Crypto Market Decline

Data from Santiment shows Fantom (FTM), Polygon (MATIC) and Aavegotchi (GHST) have seen massive whale activity over the past 24 hours; however these transactions were mainly transfers of coins from one exchange address to another. These altcoins have all experienced significant corrections in their prices over the last few days. For example, Fantom has seen a 40% correction in its price within 4 weeks due to heavy selling pressure. In addition to this Aavegotchi saw an $8.2 million transfer across exchanges which caused swings in its price at the time.
