The spike in volume underscores notable institutional participation in the sell-off, amplifying downward momentum. XLM\u2019s failure to hold above resistance levels and its breach of multiple intraday supports point to bearish conditions likely persisting in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>The weakness in XLM comes despite constructive ecosystem news.
