LUNA, the native token of the Terra 2.0 blockchain, was one of many winners over the past week that were positively impacted by Bitcoin’s impressive rally towards the $35,000 mark.
According to data from CoinMarketCap, LUNA is up 13.96% over the past seven days, providing some relief for investors who have had to endure the token’s bearish form in recent weeks, leading to this price surge.
As expected, LUNA’s current bullish form has now attracted a lot of attention, with some analysts speculating that there could be further gains in the coming weeks.

According to Faibik’s analysis, LUNA traded above $0.47 over the past week, breaking a bearish trendline dating back to January 2023 on the token’s daily chart.
Traditionally, trend lines are used by traders to connect different price points and provide some insight into the potential direction of an asset’s price movement.
When the price of an asset moves outside an established trendline, as in the case of LUNA, it can be interpreted as an impending price reversal.
Since the start of 2023, LUNA has posted generally negative price performance, losing over 63% of its value over the past 10 months. However, if Faibik’s prediction comes true, the popular altcoin could be on its way to a remarkable recovery.
At the time of writing, LUNA is trading at $0.468 with a decline of 0.70% on the last day. With an 80-100% price increase, this price could rise to $0.934 in the coming weeks.
Meanwhile, LUNA’s daily trading volume is currently down 3.73% and valued at $48.67 million. With a market cap of $263.92 million, LUNA is ranked as the 117th largest cryptocurrency.
