STX& hits $0.39 amid growing TVL
STX, the native coin of Stacks, a layer-2 protocol built on Bitcoin, is trading at $0.37 after adding 7% to its value in the last 24 hours.&
The rally comes as Stacks is experiencing a growing Total Value Locked (TVL). Data obtained from DeFiLlama shows that Bitcoin’s TVL is at $7.176 billion, up from $6.728 billion last week.&
There is a renewed interest in Bitcoin’s DeFi utility, with Stacks one of the leading DeFi platforms on the Bitcoin blockchain.&
Furthermore, DeFiLlama data shows that Stacks TVL is at $129.73 million, up from $116.62 million last week.&
Retail traders are also renewing interest in the network. Stacks futures Open Interest (OI) currently stands at $27.79 million, up from the $16 million recorded a week ago. This suggests a capital inflow driven by renewed risk-on sentiment among traders.&
STX could retrace below $0.35 if the $0.39 resistance holds
The STX/USD 4-hour chart is bullish and efficient after STX added 17% to its value since hitting the $0.3060 50-day EMA level on Sunday. At press time, STX is trading at $0.3781 and could rally higher in the near term.
If it extends its gains, STX could surge towards the $0.413 resistance level for the first time since November 13. An extended bullish run would allow STX to hit $0.50 for the first time since the October 10 deleveraging event.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) on the 4-hour chart is at 83, suggesting heightened buying pressure. However, with the RSI in the overbought region, STX could undergo a slight correction in the near term.&
If that happens, STX could retest the $0.3500 resistance-turned-support level, with the 50-day EMA at $0.3060 expected to be a strong support zone.
