The main catalyst for HBAR price is the fact that Bitcoin is surging despite the regulatory scrutiny in the industry. BTC jumped to a high of $28,885, which was the highest point this year. This means that there is a possibility that the coin will jump to $30,000 in the coming months.
Historically, altcoins like Hedera tend to attract attention and buyers when Bitcoin is surging. This rally is notable because it comes in a week that US regulators filed a lawsuit against Binance, the biggest cryptocurrencies exchange in the world.
The other main reason why Hedera Hashgraph is rising is a new governance proposal in the ecosystem. Proposal HIP-694 proposes a way for users to receive information for specific information as soon as it is available on Hedera Hashgraph.
The proposal suggests adding a new method, eth_subscribe, which allows users to subscribe to particular events and receive data in near real-time.
Currently, developers need to constantly query the eth_getLogs method to retrieve newly created contract logs,
