Celestia's token TIA rose 10.28% in the past 24 hours, with trading volume reaching $88.62 million, indicating a significant rebound in market activity. Its market capitalization increased to $453.2 million during the same period. After the price climbed back above $0.45, short-term trading activity has strengthened.
Spot funds have turned into net inflows again.
On May 13, the TIA exchange saw a net inflow of approximately $684,000. This follows several weeks of continuous outflows from the market, and the return of funds to trading platforms typically indicates increased trading interest during periods of heightened volatility.
However, judging from the overall pace, the scale of this round of inflows has not yet reached the level of the previous concentrated selling pressure phase. The article mentions that in the past, after several surges in inflows, TIA experienced brief rebounds, but quickly fell back. The difference this time is that the price remained strong despite the increased inflows, indicating that short-term buying has not yet clearly turned into profit-taking.
Structural improvement after price broke through $0.45
The TIA had been consolidating in the $0.28 to $0.38 range for several months before gradually recovering and breaking through the key resistance level of $0.45. The article states that the area around $0.3426 became a support zone repeatedly defended by buyers.
Judging from the current trend, after the price broke above the previous breakout zone, market expectations for continued upward movement have increased. If the support above $0.45 remains effective, the next resistance area to watch is around $0.60.
- 24-hour increase: 10.28%
- Trading volume: US$88.62 million
- Market capitalization: $453.2 million
Derivatives holdings increased in tandem
In addition to the recovery in spot trading, TIA's open interest also increased by 8.63% to $84.46 million. The simultaneous rise in open interest and price usually indicates new leveraged positions entering the market, rather than a concentrated liquidation of existing positions.
The article also mentions that the MACD indicator maintains a bullish crossover, further supporting the current rebound structure. However, the increase in derivatives positions also means that once the price loses support near the resistance level, volatility may amplify again, or even trigger a pullback due to liquidation.
Overall, this rebound in TIA prices wasn't solely driven by price increases; trading volume, net spot inflows, and open interest all contributed to the rally. The short-term focus is on whether prices can hold above $0.45 and translate this new demand into more sustainable upward momentum.
