Spark Protocol (SPK) 30 days big pump 280%! stake Mining craze combined with Brian Armstrong advocate ignites the market.
The lending protocol Spark Finance's governance token SPK recorded an astonishing 280% rise in the past 30 days, with a weekly big pump of nearly 400% in late July ($0.036→$0.19). This round of big pump was directly driven by the Staking Craze: the Spark Farm stablecoin mining and Overdrive double yield lock-up position mechanism stimulated the TVL to soar from 6.3 billion to 8.18 billion USD. Although it pulled back after BTC fell below 120,000, on August 4, the day saw a rebound of 31% driven by industry executive Brian Armstrong's shout-out and BTC's rebound. The technical analysis shows an ultra short-term buy signal, with $0.12 being the dividing line for bulls and bears.
1. Staking Mining Ignites Market: 400% Weekly Rise, TVL Soars by $6.2 Billion In the past 30 days, the native governance token of Spark Protocol [SPK] has achieved an astonishing 280% rise. This round of market movement started in mid-July, driven by the Sky (formerly Maker) ecosystem lending protocol Spark Finance. In late July, the price of SPK soared from $0.036 to $0.19, with a weekly increase of nearly 400%, reaching the peak of this round of increase (which later pulled back, leaving a 30-day rise fixed at 280%).
Core driving force:
2. Mainstream CEX CEO advocates for a rebound, BTC trend becomes a key variable As BTC fell below $120,000 and continued to decline, the rise of SPK paused. However, on August 4th, SPK experienced a significant rebound of 31%. This rebound was directly catalyzed by two major factors:
However, whether SPK can continue its rebound momentum will largely depend on the overall trend of the crypto market, especially whether BTC can regain its rise.
3. Technical Analysis: $0.12 is a pivotal point for bulls and bears, bullishness requires a breakthrough in volume resistance
Conclusion: Spark Protocol (SPK) has triggered a short-term big pump market with its staking mining (Spark Farm + Overdrive) ecological mechanism, and the TVL has surged nearly 30%, confirming the demand explosion. Although Brian Armstrong's advocate has triggered a technical rebound, the future trend of SPK is still deeply tied to the overall trend of BTC. The technical support level at $0.12 (a key dividing line for bulls and bears) and the OBV volume breakthrough are key points for short-term observation. If it can stabilize, there is hope to attack the previous high of $0.19. Investors need to be cautious of the increased volatility risk of BTC and the high volatility characteristics of DeFi tokens, and the sustainability of the ecological development of the lending protocol leader will be the long-term value support.
