surrendered earlier gains in a sharp reversal Tuesday to trade 3.3% lower over the last 24 hours.

The token underperformed wider crypto markets. The Coindesk 20 index was 1.3% lower at publication time.

DOT volume ran 17% higher than the 30-day moving average, suggesting institutional distribution rather than retail capitulation, according to CoinDesk Research's technical analysis model.

The model showed that the day began with DOT climbing to $2.17 on strengthening participation, tracking closely with the broader cryptocurrency complex.

Resistance at the $2.24-2.26 zone repelled a breakout attempt, setting the stage for the subsequent breakdown, according to the model.

Price deterioration accelerated as DOT carved through multiple support zones in three distinct capitulation waves, the model said.

This breakdown below the critical $2.19 support level fully negated daily gains and exposed portfolio managers to amplified volatility risk.

Technical Analysis:

  • Immediate resistance now established at $2.19
  • Critical support at $2.14-2.15 demand zone
  • 24-hour volume elevated 17% above 30-day moving average
  • Failed breakout at $2.26 confirmed strong resistance zone
  • Steep downtrend with lower highs at $2.203, $2.191, $2.187, and $2.167
  • Technical structure shifted decisively bearish
  • Recovery resistance: $2.19 must reclaim to negate breakdown
