While Bitcoin grabbed headlines with its $123K all-time high, Stellar (XLM) quietly became one of crypto’s top performers – soaring 109% in six days to hit $0.46. Even more impressive? Its $3B daily trading volume surpassed heavyweights like BNB and Dogecoin.
Why XLM Is Outperforming
✅ Institutional-driven rally – Legacy layer-1 projects favored
✅ Massive volume spike – $3B+ in 24H (top 10 traded assets)
✅ Technical breakout – Cleared key resistance levels
“Stellar’s flying under the radar, but its volume tells the real story,” says analyst Jake Simmons. “This isn’t just speculative trading – there’s real demand.”
Stellar vs. Layer-1 Rivals
| Crypto | 7-Day Gain | 24H Volume |
|---|---|---|
| XLM | 109% | $3B |
| Ethereum | 25% | $12B |
| BNB | 15% | $2.6B |
| Dogecoin | 8% | $2.2B |
Technical Outlook: Can XLM Hit $0.58?
📈 Current price: $0.4565 (after peaking at $0.5166)
📈 Key support: $0.43 (Bollinger midline)
📈 Next target: $0.50, then $0.58
📈 Risk: Profit-taking near ATHs
MACD confirms bullish momentum, but the long upper wick at $0.50 suggests short-term resistance. If Bitcoin holds above $110K, XLM could push higher.
What’s Next?
- CPI/PPI data this week could impact crypto markets
- BTC stability remains crucial for altcoins
- $0.43 support must hold to maintain bullish structure
Final Thought
XLM’s triple-digit rally proves that even in Bitcoin’s shadow, altcoins can shine. If volume stays strong, $0.58 isn’t out of reach.
Will you ride the Stellar wave?
