Celsius Price Prediction: What is CEL and Why is it Rising?

Crispus Nyaga Market Analyst (Writer)

The Celsius price has bounced back on Friday as demand for the altcoin rises. The CEL coin is trading at $3.8, which is about 15% above the lowest level this week. This rebound brings its total market capitalization to more than $923 million. The price is still about 51% below its year-to-date high.

Celsius Network is a blockchain company that provides lending services. The American company recently raised more than $400 million from investors, valuing the firm at about $3 billion. This was a remarkable valuation considering that the firm was valued at about $120 million in a funding round last year.

Through its platform, Celsius Network’s customers can borrow money using cryptocurrencies as a collateral. Like Nexo, customers can also earn a yield of up to 12%. Its other services are payments and swap. CEL is the native token for the ecosystem. Celsius has more than 1.45 million users from around the world and more than $25 billion in assets.

The daily chart shows that the Celsius price has been in a bearish tren lately. The sell-off escalated when the company announced that it had lost $325 million in the BadgerDAO hack. The coin is still below the 25-day and 50-day moving averages. It is also below the key support at $4.3855, which was the lowest level in March and July. It has also formed a falling wedge pattern that is shown in black. 

Therefore, the coin will likely have a bullish breakout in the coming weeks. If this happens, the next key level to watch will be at $5. This price is about 30% above the current level. This view will be invalidated if it drops below the lowest level this week.
