Decentralized AI project Bittensor TAO has experienced a remarkable recovery, gaining 41% after suffering losses when the global crypto market saw over $1 billion in liquidations. At press time, Bittensor (TAO) surged to $254.32, reflecting a significant 31.69% increase over the last 24 hours.
The market cap also climbed by 31.78% to $1,825,976,379, ranking it at 39 among cryptocurrencies. Despite the positive trend, the 24-hour trading volume decreased by 4.25% to $131,362,459, indicating some consolidation or profit-taking among traders.
Analyzing TAO’s recent trajectory, the $190 level was briefly touched, acting as a critical support point due to the price rebounding from this level. Similarly, the $220 level has served as support during minor pullbacks, indicating a consolidation zone.
On the resistance side, the current price level of $255 represents a key barrier. If the price breaks and holds above this level, it could signal further bullish momentum. Additionally, the $240 level has been tested multiple times, acting as both resistance and support, making it a significant pivot point.
