On May 24, the token price of cross-chain router protocol Multichain (MULTI) fell by 30% over 24 hours to trade at $4.97 at the time of publication.
The selloff came after users reported that their multi-chain funds had not arrived due to a backend node upgrade "taking longer than expected." An admin in the Multichain Discord channel wrote:
"Most routes are working as usual, as some routes (Kava, zkSync, Polygon zkEVM) are temporarily suspended. All affected transactions will arrive after the upgrade is complete. We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused."
At the same time, a wallet address linked to layer-1 blockchain developer Fantom Foundation reportedly removed 449,740 MULTI ($2.4 million) from liquidity on decentralized exchange SushiSwap. Rumors also appear to have fueled the selloff. In a tweet viewed over 300,000 times since publication, one user wrote: "It's rumored that the multichain team has been arrested by the Chinese police, with 1.5 billion dollars of contract funds under control."

Ethereum is ‘woefully undervalued’ but growing more powerful: DeFi Dad, Hall of Flame
DeFi Dad has 152,100 Twitter followers. He’s a DeFi podcaster, head of portfolios at Fourth Revolution Capital and a prolific crypto YouTuber.
Who is this guy anyway?
Travis Blane, who is better known as “DeFi Dad” to his 152,100 Twitter followers, has been actively making crypto content since 2019.
He’s also the head honcho of marketing and portfolio support at Fourth Revolution Capital, an adviser for several Web3 projects, including Zapper and Push Protocol, and hosts two podcasts, The Edge Podcast and The DeFi Podcast.
Somehow, he still manages to tuck his two kids into bed every night and fight off monsters for them – which is completely on brand for Blane.
Blane is a jack of many trades but has defied the old saying and actually mastered some, too.
