Analysts are watching closely as XLM approaches the upper boundary of a seven-year symmetrical triangle pattern. Chartered Market Technician Aksel Kibar notes that price compression since 2018 has created a setup with significant breakout potential, projecting a possible move toward $1.52—representing a 446% rally from current prices if the token exits its multi-year consolidation.

For traders, the focus now shifts to whether XLM can sustain momentum above resistance and confirm a long-term breakout. The surge in institutional participation at the $0.3020 level and consistent buying on pullbacks signal strengthening demand. Combined with the token’s clear outperformance of the market, these factors suggest XLM could be on the verge of a sustained bullish phase.
