Tezos (XTZ) has been one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies of the past few days. The cryptocurrency surged approximately 15% this weekend once it cracked the pivotal $3.40 resistance.
XTZ now trades for $3.75 — up 7% in the past 24 hours. This is a performance better than that of Bitcoin and Ethereum, which are both up by approximately 2% over that same time frame.
Analysts say that the altcoin is preparing to move higher as its chart strengthens. Also boosting the Tezos bull case is the expectation of profits from other altcoins such as Chainlink (LINK) to flow into XTZ.

Josh Olszewicz, analyst at Brave New Coin, shared this chart below on August 9th. IT shows that on a macro scale, Tezos is forming a “Cup and Handle” pattern with an inverse head and shoulders pattern. These two patterns working in tandem suggests that the asset will soon undergo another leg higher, likely above $4.00.

Unfortunately, the leading cryptocurrency is not yet in the clear.
After crossing above $12,000 on Monday morning, the cryptocurrency plunged by just over 2% in the span of 10 minutes. While bulls have since recovered a majority of the drop, Bitcoin remains below the August 2nd high of $12,200. For the cryptocurrency to cement that the uptrend is intact, Bitcoin will need to cross above that level.
Others say that it’s entirely possible that BTC could retest the $9,000s or $8,000s unless the $12,000 resistance is flipped into support.
As reported by NewsBTC previously, one trader said on the matter:
“$BTC macro picture: I think we’re topped or maybe one last impulse above current high. Had my eyes on 13k$ resistance for a while, went close enough, R:R wildly favoring bears from here until 13k is closed through and held above. Macro pull-back into $8’125 area is plausible.”
