SatoshiVM’s SAVM cryptocurrency, which made its much-anticipated debut on January 19, quickly found itself at the center of controversy.
Following its launch, the protocol experienced a surge in value, boasting a market capitalization of approximately $90 million, as reported by DEXTool’s data.
However, the excitement surrounding the SAVM token was short-lived, as it witnessed a drastic 30% drop in price yesterday. This decline came amid escalating tensions between Ape Terminal and Macn BTC, resulting in increased Smart Trader outflows totaling 382,000 units.
Today, the value of SatoshiVM plummeted even further, experiencing a staggering 50% decline from its peak of $9.26 to a low of $3.21. This sharp downturn has raised concerns among investors and analysts alike regarding the stability and future prospects of the SAVM cryptocurrency.
