GARI token, the native token of the Chingari platform, lost over 83 percent of its value in a few hours on Monday. While the GARI Network dismissed this development as a “market event”, investors believe it to be a rug-pull. The token was launched by Bollywood A-lister Salman Khan to help creators monetise their content via the video streaming Chingari app and its NFT marketplace.
The current bear market has brought about the downfall of multiple crypto ecosystems and tokens over the past few months. GARI token seems one of the many that have fallen prey to the current bear market.
Data from TradingView revealed that GARI has remained very stable over the last six months, averaging around $0.60. The token's bearish movement started on June 20, but its steady status already gave way on June 4 when it fell by 83.29 percent to its all-time low trading value of $0.1. At the time of writing, the token was trading at $0.15 after making several attempts for a possible revival.
Investors quickly began comparing the scenario to the Terra (LUNA), renamed Terra Classic (LUNC), and TerraUSD (UST) collapses, with one member referring to the actor as "Salman Kwon”.
