A Battle Between Buyers and Sellers
A battle between $DOT buyers and sellers resulted in a volatile trading week for the project. $DOT began the week on a high note, and a tumultuous session saw the coin reach a high of $7.78 and a low of $7.37. Polkadot managed to recover the session, settling at $7.63. After failing to maintain the $7.60 level, $DOT saw a significant drop on Tuesday, eventually settling at $7.36. Buyers appeared to regain control on Wednesday, and $DOT ended the session at $7.56, but hopes were lost on Thursday, with sellers pushing the price down to $7.17. $DOT continued its downtrend on Friday, dropping below $7 to settle at $6.97. Â
$DOT regained strength on Saturday, reversing the bearish trend with the price finding support at $7 numerous times, ending the session at $6.99. Polkadot trades at $7.09, down 7.21% over the past seven days.

Polkadot Celebrates Milestone Anniversary
On May 26, Polkadot celebrated its fourth anniversary. Since its establishment, the blockchain has become a leading network in speed and scalability, and its governance token, $DOT, remains one of the only digital assets that have not been deemed as a security by the US Securities and Exchange Commission.
After receiving the Join-Accumulate Machine (JAM) proposal in early May, the Polkadot community approved the JAM upgrade with overwhelming support from over 31 million DOT tokens.Â
