While Parcl has yet to address the matter, the massive withdrawal has not surprised keen observers, as weak performances by airdropped tokens on the Solana blockchain are slowly becoming a trend.
PRCL’s drastic performance follows Wormhole’s W, which has plunged 56.4% since its April 3 launch, and Tensor’s TNSR, which has lost nearly half its value since its airdrop. Meanwhile, Solana has lost 18.58% in the last week and 30% in the last 30 days.
