🚀 RIVER/USDT: Chain-Abstraction Hype or Whale Game?
The RIVER/USDT pair has ignited the Binance charts, staging a "violent" 320% surge in just one week. After a rocky December, the token hit a massive $19.00 ATH on January 2nd before stabilizing around $16.65 today.
Why the pump?
Narrative Power: Traders are flocking to the "Chain-Abstraction" story. River Protocol’s ability to mint satUSD across chains without risky bridges is solving a major DeFi pain point.
The Comeback: The rally marks a total reversal from last month’s crash, which followed the controversial suspension of "point exchanges."
Speculation: Many on Binance Square are calling this a "controlled surge," suggesting whales accumulated during the December lows to trigger this massive short squeeze.
