  • Raydium Panic Rumors trigger massive sell-off, investors fear liquidity exodus from Solana.
  • Saylor’s Whale Move: MicroStrategy buys 20K+ BTC, fueling market frenzy and bullish predictions.
  • Frax Fight: Tokenomics chaos erupts, inflation fears and governance proposals divide the community.

The crypto markets have been a wild ride as Solana-based Raydium ($RAY) is getting hammered amid rumors of a rival platform. Speculation of liquidity shifts within the Solana ecosystem has sparked concerns for investors.

The so-called competitor is none other than Pump.fun, the leading launchpad for Solana-based meme coins, which is reportedly debuting its own Automated Market Maker (AMM) liquidity pools. Currently in beta testing, this move will allow projects launched on the platform to migrate to its proprietary AMM instead of relying on existing decentralized exchanges.

As reported by TronWeekly, an in-house AMM will oversee the liquidity and trading of tokens launched on its platform. Industry observers suggest the move would allow Pump.fun to capture a larger share of trading fees within the Solana ecosystem or implement mechanisms to directly reward token holders.

Crypto commentator, Marty Party stated that this move could significantly impact DEXes like Raydium. Pump.fun plans to charge higher fees and offer more rewards to their token holders have already triggered Raydium’s price to plunge by 22.9% to $3.30.

Meanwhile, Bitcoin ($BTC) is in the limelight with MicroStrategy’s massive purchase of 20,356 BTC, pushing their total holdings to a staggering 499,096 BTC. Michael Saylor’s bold move, boasting a 6.9% year-to-date yield, fuels discussions about market volatility.

Raydium’s Rumor: Frax’s Tokenomics and Kendu’s Community Vision

Thirdly, Frax Finance ($FRAX) is under scrutiny over tokenomics, governance, and inflation. Proposals for emissions changes and rebranding flood forums, have sparked concerns about the token’s inflationary nature and its relationship with FXTL.

There are various proposals for the FRAX token, including changes to its emissions, branding, and mechanisms for incentivizing user participation. The ongoing debate about the inflationary nature of the token and its relationship with other tokens like FXTL indicates a significant interest in how these changes will affect the overall value and utility of FRAX in the market.

Amidst the ongoing discussions on speculative trading and pump-and-dump schemes, Santiment have spotlighted Kendu Inu ($KENDU) which is a community-driven project. Proponents champion Kendu as a conviction play, similar to Shiba Inu and Dogecoin, poised for significant growth in a market shifting towards community focus.
