Decred (DCR) surged 14% on February 22nd, emerging as a top gainer. The rally coincides with a technical breakout and on-chain data showing 72% of the token’s supply is locked, restricting market availability. Analyst observations indicate large holders are accumulating, while lower network transaction fees suggest reduced immediate sell pressure.
The cryptocurrency Decred [DCR] was among the top gainers on February 22, with its price climbing 14% over 24 hours. This price movement occurred while a significant majority of the network’s liquidity supply remained off the market.
According to a recent tweet from an analyst, 72% of the supply is locked with only 28% available. That tight circulating supply creates a structural bullish bias for the asset.
On the daily chart, DCR broke out of a bullish symmetrical triangle consolidation pattern. Breakouts from such formations often signal a trend continuation.
The token’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) also bounced from an oversold region. This suggests selling pressure has weakened as buyers regain control.
The number of unique addresses holding above 100K DCR surged over the last 24 hours. This indicates accumulation is occurring among larger market participants.
When large holders expand positions during a breakout phase, it often strengthens the bullish outlook. The same scenario appears to be repeating for DCR.
Recent analysis shows DCR transaction fees have flattened over the past month. This suggests reduced transfer activity across the network.
Lower transfer activity can imply fewer tokens are moving to exchanges. That dynamic often reduces immediate sell pressure on the asset.
Long-term momentum indicators also signal a bullish trend continuation for the token. All these factors are currently aligned for DCR.
If market sentiment remains positive, the current rally could accelerate further. Sustained trading volume expansion will be key to confirming the continuation.
