Polkadot's price has been fluctuating this year due to the general cryptocurrency market's instability. Recently, the coin's value experienced a slight decline, but it has since gained positive momentum. However, the price has been trading sideways within the last 24 hours, indicating a bearish trend. The decline in demand for DOT may lead to greater volatility as traders adjust their positions. Despite this, the departure of Mythical Games from the Ethereum network to launch its new Mythos ecosystem on Polkadot is expected to benefit both ecosystems and drive massive adoption.
