So, as it stands, SUI is sitting pretty at a sad little $3.62, down 1% in the past 24 hours. Oh darling, what a rollercoaster! 🎢 It’s like SUI just forgot it’s supposed to be a *token* and not a *doormat*, squashed under the weight of the $223 million hack from the Cetus Protocol. 💔
This wasn’t just a minor hiccup; it was one of those colossal decentralized finance disasters that leaves you questioning everything, including your life choices. A shocking turn that makes you realize just how fragile the SUI ecosystem allegedly is. Before this calamity, SUI was strutting its stuff, having soared over 60% like it was on a sugar high, peaking at a dazzling $4.29 on May 12. Only to crash down faster than a bad date. 🙈
But let’s not forget, the rise was largely due to people getting all hot and bothered about real-world asset tokenization (whatever that means) and new *institutional partnerships*. You know, the usual adulting stuff. But then—BUM!—the attack sent SUI spiraling almost 14% down in a day. After that, it sulked nearly 20% below its pre-hack levels, trading in a snug little bubble between $3.48 and $3.62. Rude! 😒
The Crooks (a.k.a., hackers) targeted flaws like they were shopping at a discount store, using spoof tokens like BULLA and MOJO as their weapons of choice. Three cheers for liquidating liquidity pools! 🎉🎉🎉 A whopping $11 million vaporized from the SUI/USDC pool alone! Talk about a party foul! 🍾 Trading halted, and the total value on the Sui chain plummeted from $2.13 billion to a whimpering $1.92 billion. Cheers to that!
Meanwhile, the native token of Cetus Protocol took a nosedive of 40%. And in a dramatic twist of fate, the USD Coin (USDC) briefly broke up with its dollar peg. Sui validators swooped in like superheroes and froze $162 million of the stolen funds by blacklisting the attacker’s wallet. A round of applause for them! 👏 But it did get folks wondering if power is just an illusion, as few validators seemed to run the show.
Critics were quick to shout, ‘Isn’t freezing transactions against the spirit of decentralization?!’ Well, duh! Some keen observers pointed out that a cozy little group of insiders might be sipping cocktails while practically everyone else is left waiting in line for governance. 🍹
Turning our attention to market data, we find that derivatives volume took a wild spin, soaring nearly 40% to $3.57 billion like it just snorted a line of something exciting. But, just to keep things interesting, open interest took a leisurely 2.9% dip to $1.77 billion. Baby steps or wise withdrawals? You decide. 🤔
The technical signals are as clear as mud! On one hand, the relative strength index is wasting time around 50, while short-term momentum is hinting at some possible sunshine. But wait! The moving average convergence divergence is like a storm cloud, showing a bearish crossover. Talk about confusing! 🌩
All the moving averages—50, 100, and 200 days—are waving buy flags like it’s the Olympic games, suggesting that if SUI can brave the post-hack drama, it might just make a comeback. Yet for the moment, SUI is trapped below the ominous $4 resistance, like a teenage girl stuck in math class when all she wants is to hit the mall. Keep your eyes peeled, folks; this ride ain’t over yet! 🎢
