Sustained rally faces headwinds as core activity and blob demand weaken

Celestia's TIA token posted a strong price performance over the past four weeks, with the rally occurring alongside a marked decrease in network usage. Daily data submitted to the blockchain declined from 2.77 billion bytes on September 18 to 2.05 billion bytes by October 15. Demand for Celestia's core 'blobs' structure also fell during this period, while the Fibre throughput benchmark remains in development and has not been integrated into mainnet activity.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, views the recent TIA surge skeptically. He notes the significant price rally is disconnected from core network fundamentals, with both network demand and on-chain activity declining during the uptrend. Technicals indicate short-term buyer control, but a gap between price action and shrinking blockchain data raises sustainability concerns. The analyst also highlights that overbought signals are appearing despite waning use of the network’s core 'blobs' structure. He states, "A continued rally without a pick-up in real demand is unsustainable — traders should be wary of a potential rapid reversal."

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, stresses the opportunity presented by TIA's strong bullish structure. He sees the price action above all key moving averages and a broad set of buy signals as evidence of sustained market appetite. Karapetjanc is confident the elevated volatility will translate into further setups if the asset breaks above resistance. He points to development of Fibre throughput and future network upgrades as supporting long-term adoption. He affirms, "Celestia’s bullish framework remains fully intact — I expect further growth as the market rewards strong momentum plays like this."

Sholanke Dele, market strategist, underlines the risk of chasing TIA after this sharp 20.05% surge. He sees the ongoing decline in data activity and 'blob' demand as an early warning sign for sentiment. Dele warns that momentum could fade quickly given the mismatch with on-chain fundamentals. He adds, "Traders should stay cautious — if support at $0.5977 fails, downside could accelerate fast."

Bullish momentum holds as TIA tests resistance amid overbought signals

TIA/USD is trading above its 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages ($0.5001, $0.4324, and $0.3799 respectively), signaling bullish momentum across multiple timeframes. The current price is approaching resistance at $0.6333, with immediate support at $0.5977. The MA-50 remains well above the MA-200, confirming a long-term uptrend. Momentum indicators are positive: MACD and ADX suggest strong buy conditions. RSI sits at 62.37, which is bullish but not yet overbought, while the CCI is overbought at 121.77 and Stochastic RSI is firmly bullish. Bull/Bear Power reads strongly positive at 0.0902, indicating buyers are dominating intraday action. The session began with a substantial upside gap and price is near the day’s high, amid elevated volatility of 1.75%.

Earlier, analysts noted that Celestia's price was exhibiting clear upward momentum, supported by strong technical positioning and prevailing buyer dominance despite mixed short-term indicators. The current analysis strengthens this view, highlighting the importance of the $0.6333 resistance as a key level to watch for a potential extension of the rally in the days ahead.
