Bears Take Over

Scaling solution Polygon has just implemented a staking mechanism for SAND, enabling players to stake SAND without incurring transaction costs. The stock continued its downward path toward the 200-day moving average (MA) despite the gain. Staking is the technique of locking up currencies in a blockchain for a certain amount of time in exchange for incentives that help to strengthen security.

Long-term patterns may be identified by comparing the average closing price of the past 200 days to this metric. If a stock is trading below its 200-day moving average, the conventional wisdom in finance is that the trend is mostly downward.

Late in December, the value of the most popular cryptocurrency, Bitcoin, fell below the average. According to CoinMarketCap, The Sandbox price today is $3.08 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $1,273,289,847 USD. The Sandbox has been down 4.77% in the last 24 hours.
