The hype of the Metaverse certainly declined considerably in the last two months as the market crashed twice, and the likes of Decentraland stand on the receiving end of this bearishness.

The Metaverse token MANA is witnessing fear in its investors after a very long time, and it might cause a further drawdown in the price.

Although this crash didn’t affect MANA as terribly as the crash of May did, which wiped out 57.4% of its value, the altcoin still did decline by 22.8%. MANA had already recovered a significant amount of the crash from May within the next 48 hours.
