The crypto market is always full of surprises, and Ethena (ENA) is now at the center of attention. The token has been performing well in recent times, but recent selloffs and upcoming token unlocks have brought some uncertainty to the fore.
As reported by AMB Crypto, ENA saw a slight gain of 7% this week despite a noteworthy selloff by a firm linked to former President Donald Trump. Trump’s World Liberty Financial (WLFI) recently sold 184,000 ENA tokens for about $69,000. This triggered a wave of bearish sentiment in the market, considering that large-scale sales usually indicate a lack of confidence in the asset.
According to on-chain data from Arkham Intelligence, these tokens passed through several wallets before being converted into Wrapped Bitcoin (WBTC). This movement suggests that more selloffs might occur, which has made traders cautious.
Moreover, the market is already sensitive due to recent selloffs by Amber Group, a major market maker, who reportedly sold $10 million worth of ENA onto Binance, further increasing selling pressure.
Another key factor is the upcoming token unlocks. Over 2 billion ENA were unlocked in March, and another 200 million are set to be released on April 2 and 5. This influx of tokens into the market could contribute to heightened volatility.
ENA showed resilience today with a slight 1% intraday gain, trading at $0.3989. While the weekly chart reflects positive momentum, the monthly performance shows a 10% decline.
Analysts are divided. Byzantine General believes that the cooling funding rate could indicate a bullish turnaround for ENA, Counterinsights founder and crypto analyst ChartCryptic suggests that ENA, after testing lower levels, has seen a 7.75% price increase and is currently holding steady at $0.39.
According to his analysis, "We can see that the token is now testing the 0.388 Fib level, which could provide some support in the short term. Additionally, the 200-period moving average is providing some resistance, which could keep the token in check. In the short term, we can see that the token is now testing the 0.388 Fib level, which could provide some support.
"We can also see that the token is now trading above the 50-period moving average, which could provide some support in the short term. The token is also testing the 200-period moving average, which could provide some resistance." He added that if ENA manages to break above the $1 resistance, it could potentially rally toward $1.30.
