$NOT, the token underpinning crypto’s viral new Telegram-based game Notcoin, is down 33% over the last month to trade at $0.007763 as of this writing.
This signals a reversal in fortunes for the token, which last month gave holders hope for a major potential rally after the launch of another Telegram game called Lost Dogs: The Way spiked the price of Notcoin by 50% in seven days.

$NOT is still in freefall. In the last 24 hours, the token shed 5.2%, while the two top cryptocurrencies only dropped by about 1%.
