Is it possible for the same asset to have a very different price in two StableCoins?
The rapid and temporary price drop in the pair $PENGU /USDC, without significant reflection in the Pengu/USDT pair, can be explained by a combination of factors related to market structure and isolated actions. Here are the most likely causes:
1. Low Liquidity in the USDC Pair
- Sparse orders in the order book: If the Pengu/USDC pair has less liquidity (few buyers/sellers in the order book), a single large sell order ("market sell") can "knock down" the price by consuming all buy orders down to lower levels.
