EOS Price Surges 45% as DeFi Ecosystem Thrives

The EOS price has jumped and crossed a significant resistance level as Bitcoin and most altcoins bounced back. The cryptocurrency rose above the psychological $1 mark for the first time in almost two weeks, surging by over 45% from its lowest level this month.

Decentralized Finance Ecosystem Growth

The network’s Decentralized Finance (DeFi) ecosystem has continued to perform well, contributing to the recent price increase. The total value locked (TVL) has increased to $250 million, its highest level since Dec. 8, with key dApps like EOS Rex, PayCash, and DefiBox driving this growth.

Network Upgrades and Partnerships

This progress comes a year after developers implemented the Spring 1.0 hard fork, which introduced 1-second transaction finality. The network also revamped its tokenomics by capping supply at 2.1 billion and boosting staking rewards. Additionally, EOS launched the ex-Sat Network, a Bitcoin scaling project that has attracted millions of dollars in assets.

2024 was transformative for the EOS Network, with Instant Finality, record TVL growth, ex-Sat Network mainnet launch, CeffuGlobal partnership, MetaMask integration, enhanced tokenomics, and EOS inclusion in the Coinbase COIN50 Index.

Partnership with Binance and Futures Market Demand

EOS has also benefited from its ongoing partnership with Binance, which includes a $10,000 giveaway for lucky winners who complete tasks on Binance Square. Cryptocurrency prices often see positive movement during such promotional events. Demand for the EOS token in the futures market is rising, with open interest climbing to $167 million, its highest level since early December.

EOS Price Analysis

The EOS Network token peaked at around $15 in 2021 during the cryptocurrency surge but later lost most of these gains. It bottomed at $0.4700 in 2023, where it has remained for much of the time since. However, the coin has formed a cup-and-handle pattern, a popular bullish continuation indicator.

Tips for investors:

  • EOS has moved above the 50-week exponential moving average, indicating a potential bullish breakout.
  • The initial target for the EOS price could be the upper side of the cup at $1.3423.
  • A break above that level could see EOS jump to $6.43, its 2021 high if the ecosystem growth continues.

While it is too early to predict whether EOS will rebound and hit its all-time high of $15, the token’s recent growth is a promising sign for investors.
