$OM @MANTRA Price Crash: Conspiracy or Blunder?
The truth likely lies in a mix of market dynamics and self-inflicted wounds, not a grand conspiracy. @MANTRA ’s ambitious pivot to its own blockchain and focus on real-world assets was a bold bet, but it may have overextended the project.
The crypto market in 2025 is brutal $BTC ’s consolidation and altcoin corrections have crushed many tokens, not just $OM. The 93% drop is shocking but not unique in a bearish cycle.
That said, I’m skeptical of the team’s ability to manage community trust. Locking funds in staking with high exit fees and dodging tough questions scream poor governance, even if there’s no outright scam.
This fuels conspiracy theories because people feel burned, not just by the market but by the project’s own choices. If whales or insiders did dump, it’s less a shadowy cabal and more opportunistic players exploiting weak sentiment.
What bugs me most is the silence. A project with MANTRADAO’s potential—bridging DeFi and real-world assets—should be shouting from the rooftops about its roadmap, not letting Reddit threads define the narrative.
