MANTA price reacts negatively to token unlock

Data from Tokenunlocks shows that Manta Network unlocked 21.67 tokens worth $40.08 million on Thursday, April 18. The modular blockchain network has scheduled its next token unlock on April 30. The project will unlock 1.87 MANTA tokens worth $3.70 million.

The decline of Bitcoin price to $61,000 on Thursday, alongside anticipation surrounding the upcoming halving, are two catalysts responsible for the market-wide correction in crypto. MANTA price could experience further losses in response to selling pressure from airdrop recipients cashing in their holdings across exchange platforms. 

MANTA holders need to watch out for a rise in the token’s supply on exchanges, this could signal that there is likely profit-taking by investors. A total of 31% of MANTA’s supply is unlocked as of Thursday, April 18. 

The modular blockchain’s price is $1.767 on Binance, down nearly 4% on Thursday. 

No trend reversal in sight, MANTA price could sweep lows at $1.51

MANTA price has been in a downward trend since its March 12 top of $4.086. MANTA has formed lower highs and lower lows ever since. MANTA is trading at $1.767 at the time of writing and the asset is likely to find support at $1.518 ( April 13 low) in the event it sweeps liquidity at the current level. 

The On Balance Volume (OBV) indicator, used to measure buying and selling pressure on an asset in a cumulative manner, reads 247.18 million on Thursday. OBV is in a downtrend, confirming MANTA’s price trend in the same timeframe from March 12 to April 18.

Micron's $4.5 billion Taiwan fab won't make a chip until 2028 — the market sold it as a 2026 problemMicron fell 17.46% to $656.39 after Bloomberg reported construction at its $4.5 billion Taoyuan Fab 11E had all but halted over a labor dispute. The plant was not due online until 2028, so no 2026 output is lost. With FY27 EPS consensus near $160 and 2027 HBM sold out, the selloff is a peak-cycle multiple reset, not a demand collapse — and $650 is the line that separates the two.

The CPI that has no year-over-year number is the one that decides DecemberOctober CPI lands on Nov 10 at 13:30 GMT, and it will be published without a year-over-year figure: BLS never collected October 2025 prices during the federal shutdown. Consensus is +0.3% headline and +0.2% core month-on-month, against +0.6% and +0.3% in September. With December hike odds at 77%, the month-on-month print is now the whole story, and $4,197–4,202 on gold and 4.86% on the 10-year are the levels that price it.

Weekly Report: The AI capex consensus was wrong last week — the scorecard points to one crowding riskThree consensus calls went into last week. Two were wrong: the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index fell 12.15% and Micron dropped 17.46% after beating estimates, while the Dow lost only 0.94%. The scorecard says the mistake was not about AI demand but about how crowded the trade had become — and CoreWeave, Cisco and Applied Materials will grade it again this week.
