• On-chain data shows accumulation by certain holders during recent dips alongside rising transaction volumes.
• The technical indicators suggest that bullish momentum is gaining traction, with investors betting on the asset price to rise.

1inch (1INCH) price is trading within a falling wedge pattern on the daily chart around $0.257 at the time of writing on Wednesday. A breakout of this continuation pattern would favor long positions. The bullish outlook is further supported by certain holders accumulating 1INCH tokens during recent dips, alongside rising transaction volumes. The technical indicators are also pointing to a potential breakout as upward momentum is gaining traction.

On-chain and derivatives data show bullish bias

Santiment’s Supply Distribution data supports a bullish outlook for 1INCH, as certain holders have accumulated during recent price dips.

The metric indicates that whales holding between 100,000 and 1 million (red line) and 1 million and 10 million 1INCH tokens (yellow line) have accumulated 10.27 million tokens from Tuesday to Wednesday. During the same period, wallets holding between 10 and 100 million (blue line) have shed 10.49 million tokens.

This shows that the second cohort of whales could have fallen prey to the capitulation event. In contrast, the first set of wallets seized the opportunity and accumulated 1INCH at a discount.
