According to a recent report from analytics firm Messari, Polkadot has been following the general sentiment in the crypto market and has lost over 66% of its market capitalization as of the second quarter of 2022. The cryptocurrency records a 86% decline in market cap from its all-time high.
In addition, the Polkadot network has seen a similar decline in its monthly active users, and new accounts. This has led to a decrease in activity across the blockchain.
However, Messari claims the network has seen “consistent” network activity despite the dropped in DOT’s price and its market capitalization. This consistency is also found in the amount of DOT staked. The cryptocurrency records over 56% of its supply staked.
