What to know:

  • UNI has risen by 10% this week, rising to as high as $7.63 on Thursday before moving back to test the $7.00 level of support.
  • It comes as bitcoin continues to consolidate at $108,000 after it formed a new record high last week.
  • CoinMarketCap's altcoin season index is currently at 25 after being as low as 12 last month.

Uniswap's native {{UNI}} token has risen by 10% this week amid a wider altcoin market rally.

The move comes as bitcoin consolidates around $108,000 after setting a record high of $111,970 last week.

UNI is currently trading at $7.04 after rising to as high as $7.63 at 03:35 UTC. It is currently testing the $7.00 level as support, which had been a point of resistance over the past week.

If UNI holds above $7.00, it could establish a firm level of support before springing toward $10, which spurred a rejection in February.

CoinMarketCap's Altcoin Season Index is currently at 25, the top-end of a bitcoin-centric market but rising significantly since last month, when it was at 12. The index signals an altcoin market when it passes through 75.
