You Won’t Believe How RIVER Took Off Like a Rocket After Justin Sun’s Big Bucks Boost!

Oh, gather ’round, dear readers, for the tale of River, a cheeky little token that decided to strut its stuff like a peacock over the weekend!

While the grand old Bitcoin took a nosedive below $90k, losing a rather unimpressive 2.87% in the last 24 hours (poor thing!), RIVER pranced ahead with a jaunty leap of 21.37% on January 25th, and even managed to tickle a 23.2% increase in Open Interest. Bravo, RIVER!

Last week, those clever folks at AMBCrypto pointed out that some of our plucky token’s gains might just be thanks to a shiny new spot listing on the South Korean exchange, Coinone. And let’s not forget the ever-optimistic Arthur Hayes, who confidently declared that RIVER would hit the magical $100 mark. The bulls were certainly feeling sprightly about that!

Ah, but what’s this? On Friday, January 23rd, RIVER reached a dizzying high of $67.56 before tripping over its own feet and tumbling down to a low of $30.5 just hours later! Talk about a rollercoaster ride! Yet, like a determined little engine that could, the bulls were back at it, reclaiming that lofty $67.5 once more without missing a beat.

The RIVER Bulls: Unfazed by Cautionary Tales!

Now, AMBCrypto had previously warned us that the on-chain analytics, courtesy of Etherscan, were as clear as mud. Perhaps all the action was taking place on those sneaky Layer 2s, who knows?

And just when we thought it couldn’t get any wilder, the selling pressure from a token unlock on January 22nd was gobbled up like a tasty snack. This surge of demand? A rather promising sign for our bullish friends!

But wait, there’s more! CoinGlass, in a post on X last Wednesday, cautioned traders that the futures volume was a staggering 80 times the spot volume back then. Can you say “unsettling”?

“This kind of move is not organic. It is engineered.”

How delightfully dramatic! Yet, despite this sage advice, RIVER has still managed to float up by roughly 70% since then. Go figure!

In other delightful news, TRON’s founder, the ever-charismatic Justin Sun, has decided to invest a whopping $8 million into our adventurous DeFi Protocol. This cash injection will help integrate TRON and launch River’s chain abstraction stablecoin infrastructure. Quite the fancy announcement, I must say!

As we gaze upon the price charts, the bull engine was chugging along merrily. Even as Bitcoin dipped to $86.2k, triggering a dramatic $676 million in liquidations across the market, RIVER hardly batted an eye. Tough cookie, that one!

And using last week’s swing move up to $69.9, those clever calculations known as Fibonacci extensions suggest that the next target prices are $82.59 and $103.15. Hold onto your hats, folks!

Final Thoughts

  • RIVER’s rally has been a sight to behold, but remember, high derivatives volume means you should tread carefully, my dear traders!
  • With Justin Sun’s $8 million investment and Arthur Hayes’ optimistic $100 prediction, the bulls are feeling rather buoyant indeed!
