Stellar’s XLM token reversed sharply on Oct. 3 after briefly testing new highs. The token rose to $0.4041 in afternoon trading, but heavy selling after 14:00 UTC dragged it back to $0.4015, erasing earlier gains.
Volumes spiked during the sell-off, with more than 1.4 million tokens traded in a single minute, signaling institutional selling at resistance and raising the risk of further downside.
The move comes as Bitcoin.com Wallet integrated Stellar and its DeFi protocols, expanding XLM’s payments reach. Seasonal trends may provide support, with October historically a strong month for crypto, though near-term pressure remains.
