SUI Hits New ATH, Can Bullish Momentum Lead Price To $5 This Weekend?

SUI momentum continues after recording a new all-time high (ATH) on Friday morning. The cryptocurrency surged 4.5% to near the $5 barrier for the second time this week, fueling investors’ optimism about the token’s future price action.

SUI Nears $5 After New ATH

SUI has been one of the leading cryptocurrencies this bull run, rising over 521% year-to-date (YTD) and nearly 182% since Q4 started. The token also outperformed the market throughout the Q2 and Q3 retraces, registering massive gains while most altcoins struggled.

As the crypto market started to gain steam in preparations for the US elections, SUI saw a brief consolidation period after surpassing its March ATH. The token hovered between the $1.7-$2.3 price range before continuing the “price discovery” mode in November.

The post-US election pump propelled the cryptocurrency’s price past the $3 barrier and near the $4 mark before retracing. Nonetheless, SUI’s momentum resumed on December 5 when it hit the $4.5 mark, fueled by Bitcoin’s first-ever surge above $100,000.

The token’s rally continued this week, with SUI registering a 14% increase in the last seven days, which led to its latest $4.92 milestone on Friday morning. SUI’s remarkable performance also drove the token to the top 15 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization after flipping Polkadot (DOT).

SUI’s Price To Peak In June?

Amid SUI’s performance, several analysts noted that the token, often called “Solana’s “killer,” seems to be repeating SOL’s 2021 path. Market watcher Mags compared the two charts, suggesting investors won’t be ready for SUI’s upcoming movements.

During the 2020-2021 cycle, Solana saw a massive rally that drove its price to its previous ATH. Its price action saw SOL gain steam at the end of 2020 and surge to its first major high of the year in May 2021. Then, Solana consolidated for a few months before resuming its run, peaking at $259 in late November 2021.

According to Ali Martinez, SUI’s performance earlier this year resembled Solana’s initial climb last cycle, jumping to its $2.3 high before consolidating for a few months. Now that it has broken past its March ATH, SUI continues to move similarly to SOL, which could suggest that the token is poised for a massive surge soon.

If it continues this pattern, the cryptocurrency could hit the $5 mark in the coming days after a brief consolidation in the $4.5-$4.8 price range. Trader Crypto Rand highlighted that SUI is in “full bullish momentum,” also forecasting it will hit the $5 mark soon.

Another pseudonym crypto trader predicted that the token could be near the $8 barrier by early 2025 and hit the $16 mark by Q2, following SOL’s path. Based on the chart, SUI could see its rally extended until June 2025, when it would hit its peak around the $40 mark.

As of this writing, SUI is trading at $4.79, a 50% surge in the monthly timeframe.

Silver breaks $64 as precious metals rebound — can gold hold the $4,280 line into the Fed decision?Silver has climbed back above $64 an ounce for the first time this week, leading a broad rebound across precious metals hours before the Federal Reserve delivers what is expected to be its first rate hike since 2023. Spot silver was last at $64.64, up 1.49% on the day, while gold reclaimed $4,300 and platinum and palladium both advanced. The question now is whether the bounce is a genuine turn — or a pause before the Fed's dot plot decides the next move.
