The Average Directional Index, a popular indicator that measures the strength of a trend, rose to 33. A trend is considered strong when it has moved above 25.
Second, Mantra has soared because of its staking rewards, which are some of the highest in the industry. It has a staking yield of 22.32%, while its staking ratio is about 50%. The staking ratio is an important metric that examines the proportion of tokens in circulation that have been staked.
Mantra’s network will feature low transaction costs, a modular architecture, compliance and security features, and decentralization. As a Cosmos network, it will have access to the Inter Blockchain Communication protocol, facilitating asset transfers across blockchains.
There are three likely reasons for the ongoing surge. First, Mantra has hinted that it will launch its mainnet this month. While no date has been announced, it will likely happen on Oct. 23 during the Cosmoverse event in Dubai. In most cases, crypto companies launch big projects when there are significant events.
Its rally has coincided with the ongoing rebound of its futures open interest, which has risen to a multi-month high of million. A rising open interest signals that an asset has strong demand from investors.
Mantra (OM) jumped to .3155 as Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and other altcoins retreated amid rising geopolitical tensions. It has rallied by over 2,130% this year.
Additionally, the two lines of the MACD indicator have also rallied. Therefore, Mantra may continue rising, with the next reference level being .4140, its all-time high and 12% above the current level.
Mantra price has strong technicals
OM’s rally is also supported by its strong technicals. On the daily chart, the Relative Strength Index has been in a slow and steady rally since August when it bottomed at 36. It was approaching the overbought level of 70 on Oct. 2.
