The surge was driven by two key factors:
- A broader bullish sentiment across the crypto market, and
- The release of Stellar Core v23.0.0rc2, which enhances the network’s scalability and maturity.
Earlier this month, XLM had dipped to a local low of $0.22, but has since rebounded steadily. It now trades above the midpoint of its $0.22–$0.34 consolidation range, with roughly 14% upside remaining before testing the upper boundary.

A potential breakout above $0.34 may hinge on a major catalyst: approval of altcoin spot ETFs. If approved, capital could rotate from Bitcoin into altcoins, lifting the entire sector — and XLM would likely be a key beneficiary.
