HBAR fell 6% over a 23-hour period from September 21 to 22, sliding from $0.24 to $0.22 as institutional selling pushed volumes to nearly three times the daily average. Volatility spiked, with trading ranges widening to 9.7%, while resistance solidified around $0.235–$0.24, triggering a wave of liquidations.

The heaviest selling occurred around midnight on September 22, when volume surged to 137.11 million. The token briefly dipped to $0.22, indicating potential capitulation among short-term holders. A late-session rebound saw HBAR climb from $0.2197 to $0.2222 on a 6.21 million volume spike before volumes collapsed in the final three minutes, signaling a temporary market pause.
