Moonbeam (GLMR) launch on Polkadot (DOT) was a much-publicised affair. In fact, the project was one of the key beneficiaries of Polkadot’s parachain auction. Moonbeam (GLMR) also became the first fully operational parachain running successfully on the Polkadot ecosystem. But despite this, the news did not reflect on the price and here is why:
At the time of writing, Moonbeam (GLMR) was trading at $10.42, down nearly 13% in 24-hour intraday trading.
The launch on Polkadot is seen as a crucial move in accelerating Moonbeam (GLMR) and its growth.
But so far, it seems investors are still jittery as wider sentiment in the crypto market remains sluggish.

However, Moonbeam (GLMR) could be feeling the pressure as a result of broader headwinds in the market. At the time of writing, the token was trading at around $10.38 with daily lows of $9.75.
