The Pyth Network price slumped 9% in the past 24 hours to trade for $0.4385 as of 05:23 a.m. EST on trading volume that skyrocketed 414%
The dump came as the Pyth Network unleashed a large token unlock.
Pyth Network Price Dumps On Voluminous Token Unlocks Event
Data according to tokenunlocks.app shows that the network is unlocking $935.52 million worth of tokens. This was after 2.13 billion PYTH tokens were unleashed as part of a cliff unlocks event. The tokens comprise 141.67% of the network’s circulating supply.
Token unlocks are considered bearish catalysts because a significant number of tokens are unlocked and become available for trading. This can lead to increased selling pressure and downward price movement.
Token unlocks typically result in a sudden increase in the supply of the cryptocurrency. If there is not enough demand to absorb this new supply, it can lead to a decrease in price as sellers outnumber buyers.
Nevertheless, one trader on X, @ModestusOkoye, observes that the impact of this token unlock event may not be that bad despite the volume. He bases the expectation on the fact that the token allocation means a lot won’t be cashed in immediately for early gains. That’s because PYTH tokens will go toward publisher awards, ecosystem growth, protocol development, and private sales.

But don't fret!
I don't think the majority of the token will be dumped.

Understanding the motivations and intentions of token recipients can provide insights into potential price movements and help investors make informed decisions.
Meanwhile, data according to blave.org shows that PYTH bulls are quickly taking advantage of the correction to buy the dip.

Pyth Network Price Prediction
The Pyth Network price appears primed for a recovery as bulls defend the $0.3763 support level. A bounce atop this buyer congestion level would send the PYTH price to the centerline of the Bollinger indicator at $0.4725.
If PYTH holders can keep their profit appetite in check, and the bulls muster more buying momentum, gains will come. A strong move beyond the trendline of the Fibonacci indicator, marked by the descending trendline, could see the Pyth Network price extend north.
In a highly bullish case, the Pyth Network price could test the upper band of the Bollinger indicator at $0.5704. A strong move above this blockade would open the gains for more upside potential, with the altcoin likely to test the 50% Fibonacci placeholder of $0.7629.
Notably, the volume profile shows a large green histogram bar, pointing to growing bullish sentiment in the PYTH market.

On the other hand, if profit booking abounds, the Pyth Network price could drop. A slip below the $0.3763 support level would send the PYTH token to a cliff, setting the stage for further downside.
Meanwhile, as the Pyth Network price defends against a new all-time low below $0.3763, new presale eTukTukTUK is gaining traction.
According to YouTuber DCA Crypto, the TUK token has big potential in 2024 and is ”changing the world.” He urges investors to ”get in early.”
