Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Polygon, Zilliqa & Ethereum – European Wrap 25 April

MATIC price primed for an upswing as Polygon-based NFT activity soars above $1 million

Polygon (MATIC) price has been seen tanking sharply on Monday and Tuesday as price action slips further away from the 200-day Simple Moving Average (SMA). Although the sentiment looks bearish, one big element provides a bullish undertone. Expect to see a turnaround soon as NFT sales in MATIC are outpacing ETH sales substantially these past few days.

Polygon price has broken the support from the 200-day SMA as bears are pushing MATIC against $0.96 with a pivotal level and the monthly S1 support level nearby. Although the sentiment looks very bearish, there is one big bullish element that should not be ignored. According to Sealaunch.xyz, NFT sales have recently surged in favor of Polygon and are now outpacing ETH-based sales.

The upgrade will activate the blockchain’s compatibility with EVM and this will allow traders to transfer tokens without converting them, cutting out complex processes.
