On-chain activity rises as protocol development faces persistent selling

Recent developments in the Telegram ecosystem, including increased activity with mini-apps, games, and DeFi applications, accompanied a sharp rise in on-chain activity for Toncoin. Toncoin operates on a proof-of-stake blockchain with integration for decentralized applications and NFTs, and recent data reported a market capitalization of about $5.81 billion with a trading volume of approximately $398 million. Ongoing protocol development and new strategic partnerships were noted, underscoring Toncoin's evolving role within the Telegram-linked network, though price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, highlights that Toncoin’s intraday decline of 13.68% and its position below the 20-day moving average show clear near-term weakness. He points to a divergence between bullish momentum signals and bearish daily price action. News flow around Telegram-related apps and new partnerships has not translated into sustained buying, which he views as a sign of deteriorating sentiment. Technical signals are mixed, and the recent gap down increases downside risk. "Near-term sentiment looks fragile and traders should be wary of further volatility and potential breakdowns below $1.78," Kharitonov warns.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees Toncoin’s broader outlook as constructive. He notes that ongoing protocol advances and fresh partnerships within the Telegram-linked ecosystem support long-term growth. Despite the sharp pullback, higher moving averages and strong DeFi activity keep institutional confidence high. Momentum indicators point to underlying strength amid temporary setbacks. "I believe the bullish structure remains intact and further growth is likely once the $2.05 resistance is reclaimed," Karapetjanc says.

Jainam Mehta, market strategist, takes a scenario-driven approach to TON/USD’s retreat. He sees the clash between bearish daily action and bullish D1 momentum as a signal for possible range trading. The $1.78 to $2.05 band offers both tactical long and short setups, with volatility likely to persist. "A potential breakout above $2.05 could offer quick upside, while a move below $1.78 would turn me defensive in the short term," Mehta advises.

Mixed momentum as price gap contrasts with longer bullish support

TON/USD is trading below the 20-day moving average ($2.140), but above the 50-day ($1.678) and 200-day ($1.553) moving averages, indicating near-term selling pressure, medium-term support, and longer-term bullish structure. The nearest dynamic resistance is at the Ichimoku Kijun level ($2.104), while support forms near the 50-day moving average. Momentum signals are mixed: MACD gives a strong buy, and the Average Directional Index (ADX) indicates persistent trend strength. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) remains in a neutral zone (52.0), Stochastic RSI shows strong buy, but Commodity Channel Index (CCI) turns negative. Bull/Bear Power (BBP) indicates buyers still dominate intraday momentum, yet oscillators highlight some oversold conditions intraday. TON/USD opened with a sizable downside gap (around $0.25) and is near the session low, down 13.68% with volatility at 5.84%. The tone is pressured after the open, as intraday losses contradict bullish momentum cues, revealing a divergence between daily price action and D1 momentum readings.

Earlier, analysts noted that Toncoin was experiencing mixed momentum signals and ongoing consolidation amid heightened ecosystem activity. The latest shift in intraday volatility and divergence between price action and momentum cues signals a more uncertain outlook, making the $2.05 resistance a crucial threshold for any immediate recovery attempts.
