Biggest loser among the top 100 crypto assets: $ASTER fell 22% in one day, with its price now around $0.50
The fact that even positive news couldn't save it is the signal most worth considering:
· On November 9, WLFI announced that a $10 million buyback would be carried out through the Aster platform. After the news broke, ASTER instead fell 2.8%.
· Last night, it plunged 14.6% in one hour, dropping from $0.6119 to $0.5226. In that hour, $4.49 million in long positions were liquidated, compared with just $10,000 in short positions—all the pain was on the long side.
· The current price is around $0.50, with a 24-hour range of $0.48–$0.65. It's down about 79% from its all-time high of $2.41.
My take: This isn't the start of an oversold rebound; it's a combination of positive news being fully priced in and long-position capitulation. The buyback narrative failed to support the price, which suggests buyers can no longer absorb the selling pressure.
Key levels / signals to watch next:
· If it climbs above $0.61 (the starting point of last night's plunge), that would indicate short covering and a short-term bottom—and only then would a rebound be worth discussing.
· If it falls below $0.48 (the 24-hour low), the next level is the psychological $0.45 mark, and the sell-off could continue.
· If BTC continues falling below $65,000, this outlook is invalidated—in a broad-market sell-off, technical levels for individual coins don't matter.
Which do you think will happen: a move above $0.61 or a fall below $0.48?
Analysis only; I don't hold a position.
