USDC adoption expands as Wirex partners with Algorand Foundation
Wirex has formed a strategic partnership with the Algorand Foundation to introduce the USDC stablecoin to the Algorand network for the benefit of more than 7 million Wirex users and 80 million Visa-accepting merchants globally.

This collaboration is aimed at driving broader adoption of stablecoins and improving payments access worldwide.
Fragile recovery as intraday gains defy persistent bearish momentum
Momentum remains negative on the daily timeframe, with MACD and ADX both indicating a sell bias and directional strength. Oscillators like RSI (30.7), Stoch RSI (oversold), and CCI (oversold) all confirm oversold conditions, yet BBP (–0.0065) still signals seller dominance. The daily price is up 7.15% after a minor upside gap from the previous close, and the current price stands near today's high (range: $0.1285 – $0.1358), marking high intraday volatility and renewed buying strength after the open. However, a divergence is present as strong intraday recovery contrasts with weak daily momentum and oversold signals, pointing to a potentially fragile rally.
Bearish outlook prevails as weak indicators limit upside prospects
For the coming week, the expected trading range is adjusted to $0.1250 – $0.1500 to reflect typical volatility around current levels. The probability of a price increase is very low (less than 20%), making further downside the more likely scenario. Baseline: ALGO may drift sideways between $0.1250 and $0.1500. Bullish scenario: a sustained break above $0.1500 could target higher levels but currently lacks indicator support, while a drop below $0.1250 would confirm a continuation of the downtrend in line with daily and weekly bearish signals.
Previously it was reported that Algorand continues to trade well below its key moving averages, with all major momentum indicators, including MACD, ADX, and RSI, confirming persistent bearish pressure across timeframes. The nearest resistance is identified at the Ichimoku Kijun, while sellers remain firmly in control as further declines are much more likely than any sustained rebound.
