It’s been a tough past few weeks for the DeFi market, especially for coins like Yearn.finance’s YFI token and the Curve DAO Token. Since setting its all-time high price of $44,000, YFI has corrected by 70%, falling as low as $14,000 earlier today.<\/p>\n

An analyst that predicted the latest leg of the correction fears that the Ethereum-based crypto asset is primed to move even lower.<\/p>\n

The market seems to be bullish, though, with the YFI futures markets of Binance, FTX, and other exchanges operating on positive funding rates.<\/p>\n

Yearn.finance Could Slip Lower, Traders Fear<\/strong><\/h2>\n

After predicting the latest leg of the ongoing YFI prediction to $14,000, a trader asserted<\/a> that the cryptocurrency is on its way to $12,000. As can be seen in the chart he shared below, YFI falling to $14,000 brings it under an important support level that is suggestive of a further decline to $12,000. The cryptocurrency dropping to $12,000 from current levels will mean it will need to correct 18%.<\/p>\n

Fundamentals Still Positive<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Despite the clear loss of momentum in the price of YFI, analysts remain more optimistic than ever about the project.<\/p>\n

Andrew Kang, the founder of Mechanism Capital, recently noted<\/a> that those that think Yearn.finance is now a valueless project due to declining yields are “missing the forest for the tree. He highlighted that the project’s developers have a series of strategies to roll out that will allow it to generate relative value over other DeFi platforms.<\/p>\n

“The argument that YFI \/ Yearn value is dependant on crazy yields is missing the forest for the trees. Yield opportunities continue to grow Future strategies: – 10x-100x leveraged short DAI – Basis\/Funding trades – UNI Farming – BAL Farming – L1\/L2 Liquidity Bridging – etc.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
