Gate.io News Bot Message, January 7, 2026. According to CoinMarketCap market data, the overall cryptocurrency market is showing a correction trend, with some tokens experiencing significant pullbacks. Below are the top five tokens with the largest declines in the past 24 hours:
1️⃣ NIGHT (Midnight)
📉 Current Price: $0.78 | Change: -8.17%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.85 / $0.75 | Market Cap: $1,298,323,137.98
⚠️ Midnight, as a Cardano privacy sidechain, has recently attracted market attention due to rumors of integration with XRP DeFi. The current pullback may be due to market uncertainty about the specific timeline and implementation plan of this integration project, along with the overall market correction.
2️⃣ XRP (XRP)
📉 Current Price: $2.26 | Change: -6.01%
📊 24H High/Low: $2.41 / $2.21 | Market Cap: $137,443,202,025.02
⚠️ Although XRP has recently benefited from continuous inflows into spot ETFs and the locking of 500 million tokens until 2028, it is now experiencing a technical correction. This is related to the overall volatility of the crypto market and also reflects profit-taking pressure before breaking through the key resistance level of $2.41.
3️⃣ XLM (Stellar)
📉 Current Price: $0.23 | Change: -5.36%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.25 / $0.23 | Market Cap: $7,745,764,560.52
⚠️ Stellar, as a payment-focused public chain asset, often faces pressure during periods of decreased risk appetite. The current decline may be influenced by macro market adjustments and investors’ phased risk asset avoidance.
4️⃣ PEPE (Pepe)
📉 Current Price: $0.65 | Change: -4.94%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.706 / $0.64 | Market Cap: $2,747,744,712.16
⚠️ Recently, PEPE’s strong rise has triggered profit-taking pressure. Data shows that “Shanzhai Air Force” has increased PEPE short positions to $40.7 million, and some large whale short positions may exert downward pressure on the price. Additionally, PEPE’s market cap approaching that of SHIB has attracted market attention and may lead to short-term technical adjustments.
5️⃣ SHIB (Shiba Inu)
📉 Current Price: $0.89 | Change: -4.71%
📊 24H High/Low: $0.96 / $0.88 | Market Cap: $5,261,254,803.52
⚠️ After rising 32% at the beginning of the year, SHIB is now facing profit-taking. Analysts predict that PEPE may surpass SHIB before April 2026. This shift in market expectations could trigger some investors to reduce their holdings, and the overall volatility in the Meme coin sector also puts pressure on SHIB’s price.
📉 Market Correction Summary: The current phase of technical correction in the crypto market is mainly driven by: (1) profit-taking after previous strong gains; (2) large short positions by whales in tokens like PEPE and XRP; (3) market uncertainty about the timing of specific positive developments; (4) a temporary decline in macro risk appetite. Notably, the correction is relatively mild (all declines within -8%), indicating that the market has not experienced panic selling, and investors can remain rational and observant.

Recently, altcoins represented by RAVE have sparked a fierce investment craze, but some old star projects like FF and INX have used this wave of hype to carry out “pump-and-dump” operations—rapidly driving up coin prices to lure retail investors to buy, and then dumping them heavily, causing the price to plunge rapidly.

On April 13, Bitcoin rose from its early-session low of 70,741 to trade as high as $74,900 during the session, approaching the $75,000 level. The main drivers came from two directions: after Trump ordered the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, traders began to view Bitcoin as a geopolitical hedge asset; and a massive net short position that had been building as funding rates stayed persistently negative was met with liquidation, triggering a chain of liquidations totaling millions of dollars near the $70,000 support level.
