VIRTUAL price outlook
The alt lost nearly 2% in the past 24 hours to trade at $0.6679.
The declining daily trading volume indicates reduced market participation amidst the price dip.
VIRTUAL’s price displays notable volatility, with a 24-hour high & low at $0.706 and $0.6515, respectively.
Meanwhile, the alt mirrors the prevailing struggles in the broad crypto market.
Bitcoin failed to extend its latest Fed-driven rally to $90,000, trading below $95K.
Buyers should ensure a decisive closing above $90,000 to shift BTC’s short-term trajectory to bullish.
Reclaiming $94,000 might trigger rallies to new all-time highs of $112,000 in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, ecosystem developments position VIRTUAL for significant rebounds upon broad-based recoveries.
Virtuals Protocols Network cements the project’s status as investors and enthusiasts watch the next wave of blockchain and AI developments.
