MATIC’s Large Transaction Volume Surges, Price Declines
According to IntoTheBlock data, on July 11, MATIC’s large transaction volume surged to $103 million, marking a 1,493.81% increase from the previous day’s $6.45 million.

Despite this surge in transaction volume, MATIC’s price has not reacted positively. At press time, the altcoin is trading at $0.49, with a 4% drop in price over the past 24 hours, even as trading volume increased by over 10%.
This discrepancy, known as a bearish divergence, occurs when an asset’s price falls despite rising trading volume. It suggests that strong selling pressure is driving the price down, reflecting negative sentiment towards the asset. If this trend continues, further price declines could be expected.
