<p><a href="https://markets.coinpedia.org/polkadot-new/">Polkadot (DOT)</a>, known for its innovation in the crypto world, is facing a rough patch as its price falls from $11.80 in March to its current level, marking a 50% drop. Even though a recent protocol upgrade aimed to boost its functionality and scalability, technical analysis suggests DOT’s price might drop another 13% soon.</p> 
<p>Fascinating – but scary. Here’s everything you should know. </p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-demand-takes-a-plunge">Demand Takes a Plunge </h2> 
<p><a href="https://coinpedia.org/news/why-polkadot-will-die-in-2-years-here-are-the-major-reasons/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Polkadot (DOT)</a>, the leading Layer-0 blockchain, is facing a drop in demand this July, with activity on its Relay Chain and parachains expected to hit their lowest levels this year. This decrease is causing DOT’s price to hover in a narrow range, showing signs of increasing selling pressure.</p> 
<p>Even though DOT has fallen by 2.8% in the past 24 hours to about $5.68, the network’s on-chain activity remains strong. The number of daily holders has reached a record high of 1.3 million, with 321 new users joining recently.</p> 
<p><strong>On-Chain Data </strong></p> 
<p>According to <a href="https://polkadot.subscan.io/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Polkadot Subscan</a>, the daily active users have also increased by 19.21%, and on-chain volume has reached a record high.&nbsp;</p> 
<p>Furthermore, data from <a href="https://coinalyze.net/polkadot/long-short-ratio/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow">Coinalyze shows</a> that open interest is relatively low, with only a slight increase of 0.12% in the past day. Nevertheless, the Long/Short ratio stands at 2.83, meaning that 73.86% of traders are optimistic and betting on a price increase. This indicates that while the market is currently cautious, there is still a potential for a rebound in the future.</p> 
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-experts-say-it-s-a-mixed-forecast">Experts Say – It’s a Mixed Forecast! </h2> 
<p>Analyst Captain Faibik remains hopeful about Polkadot, noting that DOT is in a falling wedge pattern, which often signals potential price increases. He suggests this might be a good opportunity for investors to buy before a possible breakout, predicting a potential 2x surge in DOT’s price.</p>

<p>Similarly, crypto analyst Steve Courtney points out that Polkadot has support above $5.70, which could lead to an upward movement. The Stochastic Relative Strength Index (SRSI) supports this potential rise, although resistance might still be a factor.</p>
