ETH/USD is doing better at $367 and trying to establish a daily uptrend. The daily trading volume continues declining while the Bollinger Bands haven’t really shrunk too much.

Market
Chef Nomi, the creator of SushiSwap has just returned all $14 million that he cashed out last week after apologizing to the community.
To everyone. I fucked up. And I am sorry.
— Chef Nomi #SushiSwap (@NomiChef) September 11, 2020
Not everyone blames Nomi for selling as the funds were never locked, however, some critics are saying that he only returned the funds because he got doxxed. SushiSwap is one of the most popular DeFi projects, forked from Uniswap. SUSHI reached a price of $10.29 with a market capitalization of $260 million, however, the scandal made the digital asset plummet down to $1.
