The CRV token has diverged from the performance of other major coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum. At the same time, it has had a strong correlation with other major DeFi tokens. In the past few weeks, most tokens like Compound, Aave, and Uniswap have all risen by more than 100%.
This recovery has coincided with the collapse of popular centralized companies like Vauld, Voyager Digital, and Celsius. Investors seem to believe that large platforms like Curve will survive and thrive after the current crypto crash.
Curve DAO Token price prediction
The four-hour chart shown above reveals that the CRV token has been in a strong bullish trend in the past few weeks. The coin has managed to move above the important resistance point at $1.072, which was the highest point on June 8th.
It has also moved above the first resistance of the standard pivot point. Most importantly, it has risen above the 25-day and 50-day moving averages and is now approaching the upper side of the ascending channel.
Therefore, the coin’s bullish trend will only be confirmed if it manages to move above the ascending channel. If this happens, the next key resistance to watch will be R2 of the pivot point at $1.2330. Another possibility is where the coins pulls back now that it has hit an important resistance.
