Decentraland (MANA) recovered to $3.06 over the past days, following the general market trend. MANA had a relatively limited drop to around $2.66 before its recovery.
In the short term, the crash prevented MANA from attempts to get closer to $10 and establish a higher range. MANA has still managed a significant run compared to early 2021.

MANA Price Prediction: Will Mood Improve
Moods on MANA are bearish, but not rock bottom fearful. MANA still has a low per unit price and may continue to establish its price range.
More than 57% of MANA buyers are in the money. MANA trades under conditions of extreme fear on the crypto market, set by the Bitcoin (BTC) crash. The Crypto Fear and Greed Index is still at 21 points, a signal of extreme market fear.
MANA has shown some potential to decouple from BTC and continue with the logic of the booming play to earn market.
