Monad (MON) Price
On-chain data shows large holders sold more than 8 million tokens in a single day. Active addresses on the network decreased during the price drop. Network participation remained flat as selling pressure increased.
One whale wallet accumulated 70.64 million MON tokens since launch. The buyer spent $2.13 million USDC at an average price of $0.03267 per token. The wallet currently holds unrealized losses of $250,000.
Other wallets holding over one million dollars worth of MON accelerated their selling. The selling from large holders happened while other whales continued buying the dip.
Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes bought MON on November 27. He sold all his holdings two days later on November 29. Hayes criticized the token structure as high FDV with low circulation. This means the project has a large fully diluted value but only a small percentage of total supply trades publicly.
Monad CEO Keone Hon responded to Hayes’ comments about the risks associated with MON. Hayes’ public criticism and sell-off added pressure to the token price.
Monad’s stablecoin supply continues climbing and reached $451 million. This represents one of the few positive indicators for the network.
Data from cookie.fun shows overall sentiment around Monad leans bullish. The project maintains one of the highest mindshare levels compared to other new projects.
The price chart shows reaction at a demand zone between $0.0282 and $0.0288. Multiple rounded lows in this area indicate buyers absorbed selling pressure. The token moved up to $0.0302 after finding support.
The RSI indicator sits in the low 60s, showing improving momentum without overheating. If the price holds above $0.0294, the technical structure favors a move toward $0.0313 and potentially $0.0332.
Market analysts note whale accumulation during price dips historically precedes market bottoms. The selling pressure creates liquidity that can attract new buyers and push prices higher.

Legal experts are concerned that transforming ESMA into the “European SEC” may hinder the licensing of crypto and fintech in the region. The European Commission’s proposal to expand the powers of the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA) is raising concerns about the centralization of the bloc’s licensing regime, despite signaling deeper institutional ambitions for its capital markets structure.On Thursday, the Commission published a package proposing to “direct supervisory competences” for key pieces of market infrastructure, including crypto-asset service providers (CASPs), trading venues and central counterparties to ESMA, Cointelegraph reported.Concerningly, the ESMA’s jurisdiction would extend to both the supervision and licensing of all European crypto and financial technology (fintech) firms, potentially leading to slower licensing regimes and hindering startup development, according to Faustine Fleuret, head of public affairs at decentralized lending protocol Morpho.Read more
