Stellar’s Midnight Mayhem: XLM Tanks 6% on Heavy Volume—Rain Integration Fails to Stop the Bleed

Stellar’s XLM took a nosedive overnight, shedding 6% of its value despite the much-hyped Rain integration. Trading volumes spiked—proof that even ’strategic partnerships’ can’t always outrun market jitters.

Another day, another crypto ’game-changer’ that somehow didn’t change the game. But hey, at least the whales got a discount.
