| Fear and Hope: Bybit x Santiment Social Sentiment Report on OM Collapse and XPR ETF
April 18, 2025-Bybit, the world's second-argest cryptocurrency exchange by trading volume, has released a comprehensive social sentiment analysis report in collaboration with crypto market intelligence platform Santiment, uncovering critical insights into two contrasting narratives currently shaping the crypto landscape: the unprecedented collapse of MANTRA's OM token and growing optimism surrounding potential XRP ETF approvals. |
| MANTRA's OM token experienced a catastrophic 90% price drop on Apr. 13, 2025, erasing over $5.4 billion in market cap. The project blamed it on forced liquidations by exchanges, while on-chain analytics revealed suspicious trading activity prior to the collapse. Meanwhile, Teucrium's launch of the first US-based XRP ETF (ticker: XXRP) generated over $5 million in volume on its first trading day, reflecting rising institutional interest. |
| Goods trade growth set to moderate as barometer index dips November 28, 2025-Goods trade growth appears to have slowed in the second half of 2025 following a surge in the first half driven by frontloading of imports ahead of expected tariff hikes and by rising demand for AI-related products, according to the latest WTO Goods Trade Barometer. |
