ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, Mantra CEO John Mullin responded to community concerns following the sharp decline of the OM token. He assured that Mantra and its partners are working to revive the OM token, but details regarding the buyback and burn are still being formulated. He stated: "We are still in the early stages of developing a potential token buyback plan." Furthermore, Mullin mentioned that the recovery of the OM token is Mantra's top priority. He denied allegations that major investors were dumping OM tokens and that the team controls 90% of the token supply, emphasizing that the related accusations are baseless and referring to the community transparency report that has been released. Mullin noted, "The largest holder of OM on exchanges is Binance," and directed the public to check Etherscan records. However, currently, the largest holder of OM wallets is the cryptocurrency exchange OKX, which holds 14% of the circulating supply, approximately 130 million tokens.Mullin also introduced the $109 million Mantra Ecosystem Fund (MEF) in collaboration with strategic investors, stating that the fund includes "dollar commitments and contributions" and will continue to invest in supporting the ecosystem. He said: "As part of the recovery plan, we will continue to invest and support the ecosystem." Additionally, he revealed that the 38 million OM transferred to Binance's cold wallet on April 14 is related to a staking program with Binance, which returned the tokens due to the program's conclusion. He also pointed out that many trades that triggered community reactions after the crash involved collateral from an unnamed exchange, stating, "For some reason, that exchange decided to no longer maintain this position, so the exchange receiving the collateral took over these positions and began to sell, triggering a chain of selling pressure and forcing more positions to be liquidated."

ChainCatcher news, according to the official announcement, OKX has recently noticed significant fluctuations in the MANTRA project token OM: after a substantial increase in the token at the beginning of November 2024, on April 14, 2025, at 2:28:32 am (UTC+8), a rapid price drop and increased trading volume occurred first on other trading platforms, leading to a market-wide decline of over 80% in a short period.At the same time, based on on-chain public data and internal exchange data, there have been significant changes in the project token's economic model since October 2024; additionally, from early March until now, several on-chain addresses with similar operational patterns have exhibited large deposit and withdrawal activities across various exchanges.In light of the aforementioned market risks, OKX has adjusted a series of risk control parameters on the platform to mitigate market risks. Meanwhile, OKX reminds users that the market risk is relatively high recently, and some tokens may experience significant changes in supply, which could lead to substantial fluctuations and impacts on token prices. Users are advised to conduct careful analysis of the project situation when trading.

As early as late March, they collectively purchased 84.15 million OM from Binance, spending approximately 564.7 million USD (average price of 6.711 USD).Now, after experiencing a drop of about 90%, their remaining 69.08 million OM is worth only 62.2 million USD—estimating their total loss to be as high as 406.3 million USD. However, they may have hedged their positions elsewhere, and it is possible that they exacerbated this crash.

ChainCatcher message, according to monitoring by The Data Nerd, 6 hours ago, the price of OM plummeted 90% from $6 to $0.4. In the past 3 days, 24.4 million OM (approximately $143.94 million) have been deposited into the OKX exchange from 5 wallets.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, the OM token of the Layer 1 blockchain project MANTRA, which focuses on real-world assets (RWA), dropped by about 10% between 01:20 and 02:20 Beijing time today, and then suddenly plummeted from the then price of $5.21 to about $0.50 (as of the time of this media's report), experiencing a 90% drop in just 90 minutes. Before the project's public Telegram group became inaccessible, community leader Dustin McDaniel downplayed the accusations of team sell-offs, stating that he was not aware of the situation. At 04:51, MANTRA's X account updated that the crash was triggered by reckless liquidations and was unrelated to the project itself. Co-founder John Patrick Mullin mentioned that large OM investors faced massive forced liquidations on CEX and stated that they were addressing the issue.Previously, MANTRA had been accused of controlling a large portion of the token's circulating supply in an attempt to manipulate the token price. In response, Mullin stated, "The OM token has been in circulation since August 2020, longer than most skeptics have been in the crypto space."Some investors pointed out that DeFiLlama data shows the MANTRA protocol's TVL is only about $13 million, while its fully diluted valuation is as high as $9.5 billion, which could be a risk signal. Additionally, Insomniac, the governance lead at Castle Labs, discovered that three wallets recently transferred millions of dollars worth of OM tokens to OKX and Binance, with one wallet receiving about $36 million worth of OM tokens from Binance on March 21 and then transferring about 4.3 million tokens to OKX on Saturday, suggesting a potential sell-off.
