Helium (HNT) Surges 48% — Here’s What’s Fueling The Rally

Source Newsbtc

As the market action resumes, Helium keeps on surging to the top and draws the attention of investors. According to CoinGecko, the token is up more than 48% since last week. HNT becomes a prime target for both investors and traders looking for an income-making asset in the long run.

Helium Mobile has been in the spotlight as it showed its reliability and strength, coming face to face with major telecom providers in the US. Recently, it flexed its muscles again as it announced the test of two carriers that offload their network traffic to the platform, setting new records once more.

Carrier Offload Beta Now Out Showing Big Results

With Helium Mobile’s announcement that the Carrier Offload Beta is now live, two carriers tested the network, bumping network statistics up by a significant margin. 

According to the platform’s website, the platform saw almost 60,000 new users from the two carriers while a total of five terabytes worth of data has been offloaded on Helium Mobile. These numbers have been achieved with a mere 89 hotspots in total for both carriers. 

The reliability of the network showed that it can go head-to-head with major players in the telecoms industry despite essentially being the new kid around the block. 

With the focus on decentralized physical infrastructure networks (DePIN) gaining more interest, Helium’s entrance into the telecom industry gives consumers another affordable carrier to choose from. As both postpaid and prepaid plans go up in price, Helium’s position as a cheap and reliable alternative will help it grow in the coming years. 

Helium Price To Stabilize At This Level

Percentage-wise, HNT has achieved something great, giving investors and traders gains along with the general upward movement of the market. However, it seems that the token will stabilize on a narrow price range. 

Investors and traders will have to make do with the current $6-$7 price range. This can swing both ways as it leaves both bears and bulls with little to no wiggle room to gain momentum which means the next few days will be crucial for HNT’s short-term viability. 

If the bears get a hold of the momentum, we can expect the token to drop a few percent towards $5.5 before the bulls regain control. But if the opposite were to happen, HNT bulls have the opportunity to regain $8 in the long term, that is if the bullishness continues along with a positive attitude in the general market. 

However, with major macroeconomic indicators being announced soon, investors and traders should expect more volatility in the weeks before HNT returns to a fair market price.
