The cryptocurrency market has shown a minor resurgence today (July 20), yet the best-performing asset (from the top 100 club) isn’t Bitcoin (BTC) or Ethereum (ETH), but Pump.fun’s native token, PUMP.

Meanwhile, some believe this may not be just a temporary price spike but the beginning of a much more substantial rally.

What Comes Next?

PUMP registered a 20% daily increase, reaching approximately $0.002, its highest level since mid-May. Its market capitalization soared to nearly $800 million, making it the 71st-biggest cryptocurrency.

One potential catalyst for the solid performance could be the increased interest from popular industry participants. Lookonchain revealed that the well-known crypto trader and influencer Ansem bought PUMP with 1,500 SOL (worth around $115,000), while another anonymous individual opened a $1.5 million long position with 10x leverage.

Crypto X is now rammed with analysts who believe PUMP is on the verge of a further jump. Crypto Patel claimed the token has confirmed a high-timeframe breakout, indicating a potential 200% upside.

X user 0xNeena opined that a decisive push above $0.002 could unleash the next wave upward, while Greeny went even further, suggesting this might mark the beginning of a bull run that may stretch into 2027.

Captain Faibik also chipped in, forecasting that PUMP could soon explode to around $0.0047, thus reaching its highest point since November last year.

Mind the Potential Risks

In an environment dominated by sellers and a bear market that has shattered investor optimism, it’s worth remembering that PUMP’s resurgence could be short-lived. Over the past few months, numerous altcoins have posted revivals, only to head south by double digits within days, sometimes even hours.

PUMP’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) should also serve as a warning. Its ratio has risen above 70, meaning that the token has entered overbought territory and could be due for a correction. The technical analysis tool ranges from 0 to 100, and readings below 30 are considered buying opportunities.
