The past two weeks have been sluggish for the cryptocurrency market as the Bitcoin price continues to consolidate between $65000 and $60000 level. However, the TON price showed notable resilience to the market uncertainty and rebound from the $4.6 support. The price reverted above the 50% Fibonacci retracement level indicating this downfall was a healthy pullback for buyers to recuperate strength.

Thus, the Toncoin witnessed an immediate V-shaped reversal surging the asset 51% to currently trade at $6.94.

This remarkable growth has positioned TON ahead of other popular layer-one blockchains, many of which have struggled to maintain momentum. The analyst S. Lovelace also adds “TON’s relative strength against bitcoin coupled with the network effect of Telegram make it a crypto worth monitoring this bull run”.

Thus, the Toncoin is well positioned to breach the $7.67 barrier favoring buyers for higher. With the asset entering price discovery mode the traditional pivot level indicator highlights potential resistance at $8.83 followed by $10.
