Bitcoin is surging<\/a> but the rest of the crypto space isn’t following its lead this time around. Instead, many of the DeFi darlings that led the last bullish impulse, have fallen 10% or more in the last 24 hours. What’s going on with the previously parabolic Chainlink, Yearn.Finance, and Binance Coin? Here’s the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to these DeFi tokens and their short-term fate.<\/p>\n Yearn.Finance<\/a> is one of those magical success stories that comes one only every so often in the crypto market.

However, support from the February 2020 high in Binance Coin is currently holding up well, despite the 10% intraday drop and potential rejection.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Chainlink’s chances of holding up are less likely, according to the Average Directional Index<\/a>. The tool successfully marked when LINKUSD’s bullish impulse kicked into high gear, and then again when it surprised everyone and went even further upward. Now its flipped bearish and the trend is strengthening.<\/p>\n Related Reading | Yearn.Finance Reclaims Support Post Coinbase Listing, New All-Time Highs In Sight<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n Several supports have also been lost on the way back down, and all that remains is an uptrend line that’s in grave danger of leaving Chainlink exposed to a deeper correction<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As for what’s driving the bearish sell pressure on these tokens \u2013 Chainlink, Yearn.Finance, and Binance Coin \u2013 could be a number of factors. For one, sentiment surrounding the swap craze has turned extremely negative<\/a> and investors could be less blinded now that the bubble is bursting.<\/p>\nThe Good: Yearn.Finance Ready To Fly If Footing Can Be Found<\/h2>\n
