AI Prophecy price crashes 70% in 3 days after Binance leverage shake-up

AI Prophecy price crashes 70% in 3 days after Binance leverage shake-up

The AI Prophecy memecoin has crashed over 70% in 3 days after Binance’s adjustment of the leverage and margin tiers for ACT/USDT pair had triggered liquidations and forced sell-offs.

The AI Prophecy continues to bleed, currently trading at $0.05, down by 24% in the past 24 hours. The crash began on April 1, as part of a broader market downturn that saw several altcoins on Binance drop between 20 – 50% in a single day. ACT saw the largest drop, crashing almost 60% from $0.19 to $0.08 in less than an hour and its market cap losing $96 million.

In response, the ACT team launched an investigation to identify the cause of the crash. Yesterday, they posted an update attributing it to Binance’s recent changes to leverage and margin tiers for multiple tokens, including ACT.

On April 1, Binance reduced the maximum leverage position for ACT/USDT futures to $4.5 million and changed margin tiers, announcing the changes only 3 hours before implementation. As a result, traders who held leveraged positions on ACT were forced to reduce them, which triggered massive sell pressure. Binance’s investigation attributed the price crash to four users—three VIP traders and one non-VIP—selling a combined total of over $1 million worth of ACT on Binance spot market.

The incident wiped 57 % from ACT price on April 1 alone, as the price opened at $0.19 and closed at $0.08 on that day. On April 2, ACT continued to bleed, losing further 35% and stabilizing at around $0.05. Its market cap now stands at $49.5 million, down by 94% since its zenith at $890 million.
