Plasma Price Analysis: XPL Eyes $2 as Buying Momentum Strengthens

Highlights:

• Plasma is consolidating between the $1.38 resistance and $1.17 support
• A rally through the $1.38 resistance could send XPL to $2
• FOMO buildup likely to push XPL to $2 short term

Plasma (XPL) has an incredible run today, gaining by 55% in the last 24 hours. When going to press, Plasma was trading at $1.28, up by 55.01% in the day. This makes it one of the few cryptocurrencies still in the green when the broader market is experiencing a steep correction. 

Plasma volume data also paints a picture of investors’ optimism. In the last 24 hours, Plasma trading volumes have shot up parabolically by 373,317% to stand at $7.12 billion. This shows that FOMO is strong and could continue the rally and send Plasma to new all-time highs. Several factors support a continuation of the momentum Plasma has built up so far, and could see its price keep going up in the short term. 

Plasma Enters the Market with Strong Liquidity

One is that Plasma is new in the market and has come in with strong liquidity. Plasma was launched yesterday, and on its first day, landed among the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization.

This is a big deal as hundreds of new cryptocurrencies enter the market daily, but most barely make it to the top 100 by market cap, and tend to fizzle away as quickly as they come. The fact that Plasma has made it to the top 100 on the first day of launch means it has strong backing behind it. 

This is evident in the fact that, aside from its strong first day rally, Plasma has already been listed on top cryptocurrency exchanges like Binance, OKX, and UpBit. Such strong backing from the first day is likely to draw in traders looking to ride the FOMO wave. As this happens, the buying demand is likely to keep rising and send Plasma to new highs in the short to medium term. The ease of availability through top exchanges like Binance makes the potential for a continuation of the FOMO rally even stronger.

Plasma Looking to Revolutionize Stablecoin Transfers

Aside from the FOMO buying because it is a new cryptocurrency that has landed in the top 100, Plasma’s core fundamentals are also quite strong. Plasma is an L1 blockchain that aims to revolutionize the stablecoin market. It aims to give users access to zero-fee stablecoin transfers at almost instantaneous finality.

This use case is such a big deal that on its first day in the market, Plasma attracted more than $2 billion in stablecoin deposits, pushing it among the top blockchains in stablecoin liquidity in under 24 hours. As more users are drawn to the network for its zero-fee stablecoin transfers, its stablecoin TVL will also rise.

Impressive breakdown. $2B liquidity from day one really sets Plasma apart most L1s can’t dream of that. The integrations and utility out of the gate make it look like a different class of launch entirely.

The result is that the value of the XPL token could keep going higher going into the future. Such growth could also be enhanced by the fact that the XPL token has actual utility in the network, including staking and paying validator rewards. Essentially, this means that the value of the network and the token grow together. 

Technical Analysis – Plasma Price Consolidating After Launch Pump

After an initial pump when it hit the market, XPL is currently consolidating between the $1.17 support and $1.38 resistance. If bulls regain momentum and push XPL through the $1.38 resistance, a rally to $2 could follow. 

On the other hand, if bears take control and push XPL through the $1.17 support, then a correction to the $0.74 support could follow. Of these two scenarios, a rally to $2 seems more likely. That’s because being one of the few cryptocurrencies still in the green, FOMO buying could create upside pressure that could send XPL through resistance.
