Ethena price jumped 25% on the Upbit listing announcement, edging closer to the top of its trading range and targeting a potential breakout above $0.46. Ethena ( ENA ) price is up 25% in the past 24 hours, currently trading at $0.37, with trading volume surging over 300%. With this surge, ENA price has now broken above the upper trendline resistance of a descending triangle pattern that had been forming since mid-May. The descending triangle, typically a bearish continuation pattern, has instead resolved to the upside — a bullish signal made more convincing by explosive volume that accompanied the breakout. The breakout followed a rebound from what appears to be the bottom of a months-long consolidation range between $0.24 and $0.46. If ENA can successfully reclaim and hold the ~$0.30 zone on a retest of the breakout level, it could lay the foundation for further upside towards the top of that range.

This follows Upbit’s recent listing of Hyperlane ( HYPER ), which has seen a 100%+ surge in a single day after the listing, and Babylon (BABY) tokens. ENA’s price rally is also likely buyoed by the broader crypto market surge, with Bitcoin breaking above $118,000 and setting a new all-time high . Ethena’s ability to hold the lower horizontal support since early April is notable, especially amid regular token unlocks . The latest unlock released over 171 million ENA tokens worth over $63 million, representing 2.7% of circulating supply. Prior to that, in June, Ethena had a massive cliff unlock of 212.5 million tokens, representing 3.72% of its unlockable supply. However, the relatively horizontal support at ~$0.24 still didn’t budge. Looking ahead, traders should watch for ENA’s ability to maintain support around $0.30 on retest of the breakout level, as holding this level could confirm momentum for a sustained move toward the $0.46 resistance and beyond.
