with the global crypto market capitalization at $2.94 trillion after a 0.65% dip in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p>Also, Bitcoin remained somewhat muted in the last day after the recent decline, changing hands at $86,640 following a mere 0.30% decline on its daily chart.<\/p>\n<p>While most altcoins sought footing after the latest broad-based crash, ASTER is experiencing renewed selling momentum as large-scale players exit.<\/p>\n<p>The digital token has lost nearly 10% of its value in the past 24 hours, underscoring overwhelming downward momentum.<\/p>\n<p>According to Lookonchain, one whale has sold 3 million Aster coins, worth approximately $2.33 million today.<\/p>\n<p>The entity executed the transaction when the alt traded at $0.78 per token.<\/p>\n<p>Notably, the whale accumulated these tokens only two weeks ago and has now suffered a roughly 22% loss (or $667,000).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\"

often more than just a trade gone wrong.<\/p>\n<p>Generally, whale investors have high risk tolerance and intend to hold for the long term, possibly until the asset turns bullish.<\/p>\n<p>So, when a large-scale investor surrenders at a loss, it can signal a lack of conviction in short-term price rebounds.<\/p>\n<p>Furthermore, the exit has coincided with ASTER\u2019s significant price decline, magnifying prevailing bearish sentiments.<\/p>\n<h2>ASTER price analysis<\/h2>\n<p>Aster\u2019s native token is changing hands at $0.7475 after losing more than 8% of its value in the last 24 hours.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-354232\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Aster-price-chart.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1034\" height=\"422\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The daily trading volume has increased by nearly 45%, signaling increased activity from participants likely exiting before further declines.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, ASTER has breached the crucial support zone at $0.81 \u2013 $0.82 and is ready to turn it into an overhead supply region.<\/p>\n<p>That suggests immense bearishness, with any potential rebound to $0.80 likely to encounter heavy selling pressure.<\/p>\n<p>Sellers are targeting the barrier at $0.72, where ASTER briefly paused during the previous dip.<\/p>\n<p>Failure to attract adequate buying activity at this mark could expose the altcoin to further declines to the psychological zone at $0.70 in the near term.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, ASTER should reclaim $0.82 to flip to bullish.<\/p>\n<p>Surpassing $0.85 with massive volumes could support breakouts to $0.90 and clear the path to $1.<\/p>\n<h2>Aster team boosts community confidence<\/h2>\n<p>Amidst the devastating downward pressure, the DEX has shifted attention to supply dynamics.<\/p>\n<p>Early today, December 17, the team took it to X to address these concerns, confirming the completion of December\u2019s Community &amp; Ecosystem token unlock.<\/p>\n<p>They have moved the unlocked assets to an address that now holds 235.2 million Aster coins after three months of coin releases.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" data-source=\"CoinJournal\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-354234\" src=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Aster-X-post-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"837\" height=\"396\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Notably, Aster emphasized that it has no immediate plans to spend the unlocked ASTER and that the team will communicate in advance in case of future deployment plans.<\/p>\n<p>While the announced transfer doesn\u2019t add new supply to the circulating tokens, it comes amid amplified uncertainty, with traders worrying about additional selling pressure as key holders surrender.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6
