Avalanche fell to a two-week low on Tuesday, as the token broke out of a key support point. Prices fell below a floor at $17.50, which comes as the global cryptocurrency market cap is down by 1.01% as of writing. Polkadot also extended its recent losses, falling by nearly 3% on Feb. 28.
Avalanche (AVAX) slipped to a multi-week low on Tuesday, as prices moved below a key support point.
Following a high of $18.62 to start the week, AVAX/USD dropped to a bottom of $17.39 earlier in today’s session.
This move saw avalanche hit its weakest level since February 13, which is the last time prices were under $17.00.
From the chart, it appears that one of the catalysts for the drop was a breakout on the relative strength index (RSI).
Price strength dropped below a floor at 43.00, and as of writing, the RSI is tracking at the 42.28 level.
The next visible point of support seems to be near the 40.00 mark, and should this be hit, there is a strong chance that AVAX will move below $17.00.
In addition to AVAX, polkadot (DOT) also extended recent losses, falling for a second straight session.
DOT/USD moved to a low of $6.43 on Tuesday, after starting the week trading at a high of $6.78.
As a result of today’s drop, DOT has now fallen for seven of the last eight sessions, dropping by over 11% in that time.
Like with AVAX, today’s sell-off came as the RSI broke out of a floor — in this instance the 48.00 zone.
As of writing, the index is hovering closer to 47.00, with bears seemingly targeting a support point at $6.30.
The 10-day (red) moving average is now firmly downward facing, which sums up the current momentum in the market.

Following the initial incident on Feb. 25, Solana resolved the blockchain’s performance degradation after validators decided to restart the network. According to an outage report following more than 24 hours of downtime, Solana developers detailed that the “root cause is still unknown and under active investigation.”
Solana has faced renewed criticism after the blockchain network experienced its tenth downtime on Feb. 25 and into the following day. The network was widely mocked on social media and forums, including r/cryptocurrency. In one forum thread, a user wrote, “Giving a second chance is one thing I can get behind. An 11th chance, on the other hand, is beyond delusional.” Additionally, people made jokes about the bumpy restart of Solana, and in the Discord server, validators discussed adding their phone numbers to receive text messages about future restarts.
Bitcoin.com News reported on the initial downtime after the Solana Status webpage disclosed there was a problem with ‘cluster instability.’ The incident wasn’t resolved until Feb. 26, 2023, at 2:09 UTC. Some critics called the problem and previous downtime issues a “design flaw,” while others favored shorting solana (SOL). Despite the significant downtime, Solana Labs co-founder Anatoly Yakovenko defended the project, stressing that “Solana wants to be fast and super secure.” Brandon Tucker, the growth lead at Marinade Finance, a Solana-based liquid staking project, said an upcoming upgrade should significantly reduce these outages in the future.
“Chain restarts are never welcome, but it’s not a major setback,” Tucker said in a message sent to Bitcoin.com News. “Indeed, despite the furor, it’s a similar outage to the five others we’ve seen over the last 12-18 months. Ultimately, it’s good to see the validator community rally together on their own accord to initiate the updates and restart the chain in real-time. Solana is attempting to do something that no other chain has done with regard to throughput and decentralization and the path to get there is not straight – especially when it’s already being used by more people than just about any other chain,” the Marinade Finance executive added.
What do you think about the future of Solana and its ability to address these downtime issues? Despite these setbacks, do you think it has the potential to become the most widely used blockchain network? Share your thoughts in the comments below.

PRESS RELEASE. London, England, 28th February 2023, Chainwire. Metacade, a community-led GameFi project, has gained significant momentum in its presale following the recent announcement of its strategic partnership with leading exchange MEXC. Only 3 presale stages remain before the MCADE token is sold out and officially listed on exchanges.
Stage 5 of the GameFi arcade’s presale is currently priced at $0.0155, with stage 6 increasing to $0.017 – a 9.67% rise on the previous round. Once the presale is sold out, MCADE will be released on multiple crypto exchanges, including leading cryptocurrency exchanges Bitmart, as well as the popular DeFi exchange Uniswap.
Merging both crypto and gaming, the Metacade arcade is set to revolutionize the gaming industry in a way that rewards gamers for their gaming efforts and unites the burgeoning GameFi community in a meaningful and innovative way. Built on the Ethereum blockchain, Metacade will be the go-to place for Web3 gamers for everything GameFi. The platform will host a stellar range of games, leaderboards, forums, live chats, and much more to truly keep the gaming community engaged.
Russell Bennett, who was recently voted into the CEO role by the community at Metacade, said: “As momentum builds and awareness spreads about the project, we’re seeing both large and small investors taking advantage of the MCADE token presale. It’s incredible to see such a huge number of GameFi enthusiasts getting involved and we can’t wait to shake up the gaming industry and deliver a disruptive product.”
The MCADE token is a crucial component of the Metacade ecosystem, powering all transactions that take place on the platform. Gamers will be rewarded in crypto for their gaming efforts and valuable contributions to the platform such as writing GameFi reviews, participating in tournaments, and sharing knowledge with fellow gamers. Token holders will also be able to increase their crypto holdings by staking MCADE on the platform.
The Metacade team values the importance of supporting the community and will be launching a jobs board to help gamers find top jobs at Web3 companies. In addition, Metacade will launch Metagrants, an attractive initiative aimed at game developers that allows them to submit gaming proposals to the Metacade community in order to obtain funding to build their games on Metacade.
With the stamp of approval from the prestigious blockchain auditing firm Certik, development of the Metacade platform is well underway. The auditor thoroughly analyzed and evaluated every aspect of Metacade’s specifications and code, as well as confirmed the authenticity of the Metacade team by performing a full KYC. Certik approval places Metacade among other vetted projects including Polygon, Aave, and Decentraland, and looks to provide investors with a high degree of transparency and trust in the P2E project.
About Metacade
Metacade is the premier destination for gaming in the metaverse and Web3’s first community arcade that allows gamers to hang out, share gaming knowledge and play exclusive P2E games. The platform offers users multiple ways to get involved, build careers in Web3, and connect with the wider gaming community.
Leading cryptocurrency website CoinJournal has called Metacade : “A groundbreaking plan to deliver an incredible set of features, putting Metacade in pole position to establish itself at the core of the GameFi arena.”
Metacade will be the one-stop destination for users to play, earn, and network with other passionate gamers worldwide. Once the project reaches the end of its roadmap, Metacade will be handed over to the community as a full-fledged DAO. Metacade and ‘Metacaders’ as they’ve become known are on a clear mission to shape the GameFi world of tomorrow.
