Filecoin Sinks Nearly 6%, Finds Short-Term Support as Selling Wave Cools
Filecoin (FIL) saw a steep 5.8% drop on Monday, plunging from $2.569 to an intraday low of $2.406 before rebounding slightly to trade near $2.425. The sell-off came on the heels of heightened trading activity, with volume exceeding 7 million FIL during a concentrated two-hour period beginning at 22:00 UTC.
The breakdown below the key $2.52 support level marked a bearish turn, while multiple rejections around $2.56 earlier in the day solidified that level as a fresh resistance zone.
Despite the decline, buyers stepped in around the $2.41–$2.42 region, helping establish a tentative support zone. A sharp recovery attempt pushed the token to $2.427, accompanied by a short burst of volume topping 55,000 FIL, suggesting some buyers view the dip as a potential entry point.
