"Buy the hype, sell the reality" — the unofficial motto of OM investors who survived the 90% crash.
🕳️ Context: How OM Came to Look Like a Punctured Balloon
In April 2025, OM suffered an epic crash: from $6 to $0.37 in 24 hours, losing $6 billion in market cap. The official reason? "Liquidation of a large position on a centralized exchange." The community remained skeptical, with speculation about insider trading and "masked rug pull".
The ultimate irony: A week earlier, the project boasted about 10,000% growth in 2024. Fast forward: now, OM is like a lottery ticket you keep in your wallet just for memories.
🔮 Realistic Forecasts: Where is OM Heading?
1. 2025-2026: Recovery or Total Collapse?
- The Optimists - dream of $2-8 if MANTRA manages to attract institutions to the tokenization of real assets (RWA).
- The Pessimists (and technical indicators) foresee declines below $0.35, with a risk of hitting $0.05 if the "bear pennant" on the charts is confirmed.
- The Realists - know that a token with 45% of the supply held by 5 wallets isn’t exactly the epitome of decentralization.
2. 2030: Utopia or Mirage?
- Some sources talk about $21-30 if RWA becomes mainstream.
- Others warn that OM could follow the path of LUNA, becoming a case study for "how to destroy $6B in 24h".
💣 Underlying Issues: Why OM Is Like a Sandcastle
1. Dubious Tokenomics:
- "300M OM burned" post-crash to "stabilize the market" — a gesture interpreted as desperation, not strategy.
- "Infinite virtual supply": With 1.8B total tokens, inflation is like a balloon with a hole.
2. "Divided Community":
- Some HODL-ers believe in the "Renaissance of the project".
- Others cry in private groups: "I bought at $5, now my portfolio value is below the price of a Netflix subscription."
3. Fierce Competition:
- RWA projects like Ondo (ONDO) or Polymesh (POLYX) have TVLs 10x larger than MANTRA.
- Why choose OM when there are alternatives with solid fundamentals? The answer is "because Shiba Inu was already taken."
📉 Why Many Regret (Including Me):
- Personal Case: I bought in at $0.04, sold at $0.6 (x15!), but felt I left $3-4 on the table. Fast forward: when I saw it drop to $0.3, I realized that "time in the market > timing the market" is just a spell for those who missed the top.
- Life Lesson: In crypto, profit isn’t real until you cash it out in USDT and spend it on a vacation in Bali.
🚨 Alarm Signals for Investors:
1. The Team's Techniques: Token burns, vague promises about RWA, and personal attacks on Twitter when someone asks about TVL.
2. Dependence on Hype: The price was pumped by listings on major exchanges, not by actual utility.
3. Regulatory Risk: The SEC could classify them as securities, turning it into another XRP in legal battles.
🎭 Conclusion: OM Is a Cabaret Show, Not an Investment
If OM were a movie, it would be "The Wolf of Wall Street"*meets "Titanic" — full of exuberance, but with a predictable ending: "the iceberg is called reality".
For those still holding hope:
- Watch if the TVL exceeds $10M (currently below $5M).
- Wait for the news that "BlackRock bought OM" (spoiler: it’s not going to happen).
- Don’t sell at a loss — turn it into an NFT with the text "I survived the Great OM Crash 2025".
⚠️ Warning: This article is like a survival manual — read it before you throw yourself in front of the hype train.
P.S. If you still believe in OM, take a parachute. I know from a friend...
