Governance concerns surface amid EdgeCloud upgrade and partner scrutiny

Theta Network has completed a key infrastructure upgrade for its EdgeCloud platform, transitioning users to NVIDIA H200 GPUs from H100 GPUs at the same price, enhancing performance and VRAM for AI-focused tasks. The token remains central to network governance, with support from corporate validators including Google and Samsung, while recent whistleblower lawsuits allege internal governance and disclosure issues within Theta, along with concerns over the representation of major partnerships. These legal actions also claim retaliation against internal whistleblowers raising concerns about token sales and network governance.

Bearish momentum intensifies as oversold signals meet high volatility

Momentum remains firmly bearish, with strong sell signals from both MACD and ADX on the daily chart. RSI reads at 38.71 and CCI is deeply oversold at –124, highlighting persistent seller dominance and oversold conditions; Stoch RSI is neutral on D1 but oversold across most intraday timeframes, suggesting the market is stretched to the downside. BBP confirms sellers control intraday momentum. Awesome Oscillator does not provide directional confirmation. Price opened close to the previous session's close (no gap), is now nearing the lower end of today’s $0.311 – $0.334 range after dropping 7.85%. Intraday volatility is high, and the tone shows strong downside continuation after the open.

High probability of further losses as sideways range dominates outlook

For the next five trading days, THETA is expected to fluctuate in a $0.275 to $0.335 volatility band relative to current levels. There is a very high probability (more than 80%) of further decline, with the likelihood of a meaningful move higher considered very low. The baseline scenario is continued sideways movement between $0.275 and $0.335. A bullish scenario would require clearing $0.335 – $0.3435 to target $0.36, while a failure of support near $0.275 could trigger a move down to $0.26.

Anton Kharitonov, Traders Union expert, sees THETA stuck in a firm downtrend. Bearish momentum dominates, and legal risks around governance keep sentiment negative. Key resistance is overhead and no support is close. "As long as price remains below $0.335, I view any upside as unsustainable — my base case is sideways or continued decline."

Previously it was reported that Theta (THETA) continues to face persistent bearish momentum, trading well below all major moving averages with momentum indicators such as MACD and ADX confirming strong selling pressure, while RSI and other oscillators signal oversold conditions and limited buyer presence. Immediate resistance remains near the Ichimoku Kijun level, with the price consolidating near support and a low probability of reversal, suggesting continued downside risk in the near term.
