Despite the current rally, the Fantom (FTM) price is trading at 66% discount from its all-time high of $3.16 back in 2021. Moreover, nearly 43% of investors are seeing their holdings below their initial investment. This indicates that a significant portion of investors are holding out for an increase in the token’s value before contemplating selling. This reluctance to sell may reduce selling pressure on the market, potentially enhancing the likelihood of sustained upward Fantom price movement.

Positive Triggers for FTM

Since the start of March, there has been a reduction in the supply of FTM Coin available on exchanges. The exchange supply, previously at 655 million on March 1, has decreased to 643 million. This decline in supply has corresponded with a price increase from around $0.50 to $0.82.

A decrease in the supply of any altcoin on exchanges indicates a movement of more assets to cold wallets. This suggests that long-term investors are opting to store their assets independently rather than holding them readily available for sale.
