JUST (JST), the decentralized stablecoin lending protocol, has seen its token price plummet by 25% in the past 24 hours, despite a significant $20 million token burn. The burn, which reduced the circulating supply by approximately 3%, was intended to bolster long-term fundamentals but failed to support immediate price action. Founder Justin Sun confirmed the burn as part of a quarterly strategy, with the project's treasury now exceeding $100 million.
While spot market activity indicates gradual accumulation, with net inflows surpassing $658,000, derivatives market pressure has intensified. Open Interest-Weighted Funding Rates have dropped to -0.0313%, reflecting a bearish sentiment in leveraged trading. Trading volume surged 107% to $51 million, reinforcing downside momentum. Despite the recent decline, JST remains up 44.2% year-to-date, outperforming the broader crypto market.
