FTX has been on a tear recently in terms of fundraising. In 2021, the company raised over a billion from investors at a valuation of over $25 billion.

And this week, FTX announced that it had raised $400 million from investors in its series C fundraising. This was the company’s third funding round in six months, bringing the total to $1.8 billion. As a result, its total valuation in the private market currently stands at about $32 billion. 

The announcement came a few days after FTX US secured another $400 million from a group of investors led by Softbank Group. The fundraising took the company’s valuation to over $8 billion. 

For starters, the FTX Token is the native token for the FTX platform. It is a leading coin that is valued at over $4 billion. The coin’s role is to provide incentives for users of the FTX platform. For example, holders enjoy discounts when they are using the FTT token.

Therefore, the continuing fundraising will affect the FTT token by rising the confidence among investors about its role.

FTX Token price prediction

The daily chart shows that the FTX Token has made a good rebound in the past few days. The coin has moved slightly above the 25-day and 50-day moving averages. It has formed a descending channel that is shown in black. The FTT price is slightly below the upper side of this channel while the Relative Strength Index (RSI) has tilted higher.

Therefore, there is a likelihood that the price will keep rising as investors target the upper side of the descending channel at about $50. On the flip side, a drop below $35 will invalidate this view.
