The crypto market cap has dropped below $1 trillion after the recent FTX debacle. In this decline, the prices of Polygon (MATIC), Cosmos (ATOM), Polkadot (DOT) and Synthetix (SNX) have dropped significantly in the last 24 hours. However, analysts expect further declines for these altcoin projects.

However, the daily RSI line is located below the RSI SMA lines. Hence, the altcoin is inclined towards the oversold zone.
The second project with a collapse signal is Cosmos (ATOM)
