Grayscale Manages XLM Amid 50% Drop From 2025 Peak

Published at 2025-11-14 13:12:36

Stellar (XLM) has fallen roughly 50% from its 2025 high of $0.52 to about $0.26 as of November 14, 2025. During the slide, Grayscale — one of the largest crypto asset managers — has notably managed its XLM holdings, a development market participants are watching for signals about institutional risk appetite and portfolio rebalancing.

Why this matters: Grayscale’s adjustments can influence available supply and investor sentiment in a relatively shallow market for the token, so its actions may amplify price moves in either direction. For traders and holders, the decline underscores XLM’s volatility and the importance of monitoring institutional reports and flows to gauge near-term pressure or stabilization prospects.
