MYX-2,19%
CC6,36%

IP-2,09%

Gate.io News Bot Message, January 6, 2026. According to CoinMarketCap market data, the market has experienced a divergence adjustment, with some previously strong tokens facing correction pressure, showing an overall volatile trend. The following are the top five tokens with the biggest declines in the past 24 hours:

1️⃣ MYX (MYX Finance) 📉 Current Price: $4.85 | Decline: -19.70% 📊 24H High/Low: $5.87 / $4.77 | Market Cap: $1.221 billion ⚠️ MYX recently surged nearly 90% in a single day due to V2 upgrade expectations. The current decline is a high-level correction. Although the previous rise was supported by genuine buying (OBV moving upward), profit-taking pressure has emerged after excessive speculation, resulting in a noticeable correction.

2️⃣ CC (Canton) 📉 Current Price: $0.13 | Decline: -5.79% 📊 24H High/Low: $0.15 / $0.13 | Market Cap: $5.149 billion ⚠️ Canton experienced a technical correction after an earlier rally, with market risk appetite decreasing. Public chain projects are facing overall sector suppression.

3️⃣ NIGHT (Midnight) 📉 Current Price: $0.85 | Decline: -4.66% 📊 24H High/Low: $0.89 / $0.83 | Market Cap: $1.414 billion ⚠️ Midnight, as a privacy sidechain project, has been recognized by Ripple CTO, but the market remains cautious about its application implementation. Coupled with recent weak market sentiment, a slight correction has occurred.

4️⃣ IP (Story) 📉 Current Price: $2.10 | Decline: -4.38% 📊 24H High/Low: $2.21 / $2.08 | Market Cap: $716 million ⚠️ The Story project has been affected by the overall downturn in the altcoin sector. Currently, approximately 84.73% of altcoins are trading below their TGE issuance levels. Market risk has significantly contracted, with continuous capital outflows.

5️⃣ PEPE (Pepe) 📉 Current Price: $0.68 | Decline: -1.33% 📊 24H High/Low: $0.71 / $0.66 | Market Cap: $2.899 billion ⚠️ PEPE recently surged nearly 25%, and this decline is a high-level correction. Although the Meme coin sector remains relatively strong, signals of large whales building short positions to hedge risks should not be ignored in the short term.

📉 Market Summary and Risk Reminder:

The current market shows clear signs of structural adjustment. The sharp correction of MYX Finance reflects excessive speculation earlier, with high-risk chasing; altcoins like Story are deeply affected by sector risk contraction, with ongoing capital outflows. While Meme coins like PEPE remain relatively strong, the involvement of shorting whales signals caution.

Risk Warning:

  • Tokens at high levels with corrections carry further downside risk; investors should be cautious about chasing highs
  • The altcoin sector is in a significant risk contraction cycle, with 85% of tokens still below issuance price
  • Market risk appetite is declining; it is recommended to control positions and implement proper stop-loss strategies
