$ASR Defies Crypto Markets $140B Liquidation With 20% Volume Surge
Crypto prices fell hard over the past day as fear spread across the market. More than $140 billion was wiped from total value, pushing the market close to $3 trillion. While major coins struggled, the AS Roma Fan Token ($ASR) moved in a different direction.
Trading activity around the token increased by more than 20% after Roma secured a narrow win over Como, demonstrating that football-driven tokens can still attract interest during market stress.
Heavy Selling Hits the Wider Crypto Market
The total value of the crypto market slipped to about $3.02 trillion on Monday, the lowest level seen in three weeks. Bitcoin led the fall, dropping below $90,000 and sliding to $85,200 in just a few hours. That marked its weakest level since early December, and it remained under $86,000 during Asian trading on Tuesday.
Several analysts pointed to global factors behind the drop. One market watcher said China had tightened rules around local Bitcoin mining, forcing some miners to shut down. Others warned that Japan’s central bank could add more pressure in the days ahead.
Another analyst blamed the fall on heavy selling from traders who had placed bets on prices going lower. As prices dropped, more selling followed, making the decline worse and faster.
AS Roma Victory Sparks Fresh Trading Interest
While the wider crypto market struggled, attention shifted to football-related tokens after AS Roma’s home win over Como. Roma claimed a 1-0 victory at the Stadio Olimpico, with Wesley scoring the only goal in the second half.
The win helped Roma stay in the title race, moving them to 30 points and keeping them within reach of league leaders Inter. Como, meanwhile, stayed in seventh place after failing to recover from their last heavy defeat.
Following the match, trading volume for AS Roma Fan Token rose to $1,931,278 in the last 24 hours. That figure represents a 20.60% increase from the previous day, pointing to renewed interest from fans and traders reacting to the result.
Price Action Shows Calm During Market Chaos
Despite the wider sell-off across crypto, $ASR showed steady behaviour compared to major coins. While the market was losing billions in value, the token avoided sharp swings and instead saw more people trade it after the match.
This pattern suggests that fan tokens can sometimes move based on team results rather than market fear alone. As Bitcoin and other large assets struggled under pressure, Roma’s win gave supporters a clear reason to engage with the token.
