Toncoin (TON) price had a decisive breakout from more than a month-long consolidation ranging between $1.31 and $1.49. There were several attempts compelled by the cryptocurrency price to rise and close above $1.50 but the presence of bears did not make it possible.
TON price was already under the confluence of bears since the break of yearly lows. After the breakout to the downside, the price formed support at $1.17 and consolidated below in a narrow consolidation zone below $1.22. However, on 8th August 2023, the price gained enough bullish momentum to break above it.
The bullish move might be a retest of the previous zone as the previous candle closed bearish facing rejection from $1.305.
On 2 August 2023, the TON developer report was released which showed that even though there is a decline in the cryptocurrency industry landscape, TON did stand out and experienced a surge of 102% in the involvement of developers since the previous year which can also be one of the reasons for the rise in Toncoin price.
The current market structure shows that if bulls can push prices above the support turned resistance of $1.31, there is the possibility that the Toncoin price might retest the resistance level of $1.49. A candle should close above $1.31 to provide slight confirmation. On the other hand, if the TON price rejects $1.31, it might fall back to the recent support of $1.17.
Launch of TON Space
The launch of TON Space has been announced by Wallet, the TON-based application in telegram messenger, which will give its end users complete control of their digital assets. The TON Space will allow users to build apps with a user interface in Telegram and its seamless blockchain integration with the Ton Space wallet.
