On-chain metrics supporting bullish thesis for dYdX

Whale wallet holdings and exchange reserves of dYdX are the two on-chain metrics that support a bullish view of the token. Large wallet investors holding between 100,000 to 1 million dYdX tokens have consistently scooped up the asset since March. This segment of whales now holds nearly 5.6% supply based on data from crypto intelligence tracker Santiment.

Whale accumulation is a typical bullish sign for an asset; when coupled with declining exchange reserves, it supports the thesis of a sustained price rally in dYdX. Declining exchange reserves reduce the selling pressure on an asset in the long term.

dYdX exchange supply declined by over 10 million between February and April 2023, easing the selling pressure on the asset. Around 7.86 million tokens have been withdrawn in the last three weeks.

Experts predict a sustained uptrend in dYdX

Technical experts noted that the dYdX price recently broke out of its downtrend, represented by the red band below. Before its breakout, the token consolidated within a band for months between May 2022 and February 2023. 

dYdX price move in the green band is a bullish sign for the asset, and Jackis, a technical expert and trader, has set a target of March 2022 highs above $6 for dYdX.

A decline below support at $2.5 could invalidate the bullish thesis for the token and result in consolidation within the blue band between $1.19 and $2.5.
