CRV, the native token of Curve, a stablecoin decentralized exchange (DEX), is under immense selling pressure. After the hack of July 2023, CRV has never been the same again. However, the painful liquidations of Michael Erogov’s loans have worsened the situation for holders.

Curve Founder Forced To Sell $677,000 Of CRV, Token Falling

After the forced liquidation in mid-June, which pushed prices below $0.30, data showed that the founder was also forced to sell CRV in the market to repay part of his loan. Yesterday, on July 25, Lookonchain data showed that Erogov was liquidated for $677,000 worth of CRV.

Currently, CRV continues to print, discouraging lower lows. Even though the dump has not been as rapid as in June, the token is weak and could plunge below crucial support levels. For now, this level is at the double bottom at $0.21. On the upper end, resistance lies at $0.30.

Interestingly, this resistance level served as support in June when prices slammed through the floor, accelerated by Erogov’s loans being liquidated. Then, due to the amount in the picture, there was fear across the crypto board that the founder’s loans would further destabilize the protocol, negatively impacting CRV holders.

On-chain data shows that Erogov had borrowed roughly $100 million in stablecoins using $140 million in CRV as collateral. Some claim the founder bought prime real estate with this loan.

However, what’s known is that the series of forced liquidations and the scramble by the founder to offload CRV, which allowed him to be liquidated after the hack, forced prices even lower.

Hopes On Spot Ethereum ETFs And Community Initiatives

Since the hack on July 30, CRV has cratered by over 50%. Holders are facing it rough now that crypto prices are also sliding, retracing from their March 2024 peaks.

Selling pressure has since eased after most of the CRV collateral posted by Erogov was reclaimed by lending protocols—including Frax and Aave. However, the token is still struggling for momentum.

This weakness is a concern, especially considering the positive developments this week. As an Ethereum-based DEX, the approval and trading of spot Ethereum ETFs would benefit the protocol in the long run.

Beyond the derivative product opening up institutions to Ethereum, Curve is also growing in strength. Recently, the community okayed a proposal to further boost CRV liquidity by bridging the gap between Solana and Ethereum via USDT.

His diverse range of topics, including technology, Forex, and finance, reflects his comprehensive understanding of the crypto landscape.

His technical expertise and analytical skills have been recognized and featured by leading news outlets such as Investing.com, CoinTelegraph, Entrepreneur, Forbes, and other authority sites. Notably, he broke key news, including the Ripple and MoneyGram partnership, cementing his position as a thought leader in crypto.
The news exploded. Over 100,000 people devoured this meticulously crafted report, from seasoned investors to curious newcomers. His analysis wasn't just dry facts and figures; it crackled with insight, dissecting the implications of the partnership and its potential impact on the future of finance.

His deep understanding of the financial markets, technological advancements, and blockchain developments has made him a respected voice in the industry.

Dalmas is also the founder of BTC-Pulse, a crypto news site, further demonstrating his commitment to the field. He firmly believes that DeFi and NFTs are here to stay and will continue to drive financial inclusion.

Coming from Nairobi, Kenya, it is easy to see the source of his inspiration: Across Africa, millions lack access to traditional banks. Remote villages, limited documentation, and high minimum balances create insurmountable barriers.

DeFi, not just Maker or Aave, for example, but think of Bitcoin and USDT, cuts out the middleman. Forget banks with their limitations.
Even so, DeFi isn't a magic solution. The continent still struggles with reliable internet access, and educational campaigns highlighting the benefits of this wonderful solution are insufficient. Moreover, even for those interested, understanding DeFi can look like learning a new language.

Dalmas is here to help make the tech easy to understand and digestible, even for beginners.
The story of DeFi in Africa is still being written. Challenges abound, but the promise of a more inclusive financial future is a powerful motivator. With innovation and collaboration, Dalmas firmly believes that DeFi could become the key to unlocking Africa's full economic potential.
This possibility and its immense value motivate Dalmas to continue breaking key DeFi innovations and more across the globe. His engineering background further enhances his ability to deliver well-thought-out pieces that blend technical insight with clear, impactful reporting.

Beyond his professional achievements, Dalmas is deeply passionate about technology and politics. Policies drive adoption, and being at the forefront and keeping up with how they evolve is crucial for the sphere to mature.

When Dalmas is not closely monitoring the latest crypto events, he can be found in nature, exploring the picturesque countryside, and traveling with his family and friends. His love for adventure and discovery perfectly complements his investigative and reporting skills.
