Stellar Falls to $0.23 as Momentum Weakens Across All Timeframes
The post Stellar Falls to $0.23 as Momentum Weakens Across All Timeframes appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com.
Stellar price is trading near $0.23, down 8.58% in the past 24 hours, marking one of its sharpest single-day declines in recent weeks.

The decline to roughly 61.7M OI reflects a more cautious and neutral environment among derivatives traders.
