What’s Next for DRIFT After 500% Volume Surge on Upbit?From Airdrop to Airborne | DRIFT Token Soars Like a Rocket !
The governance token DRIFT from Solana based decentralized exchange Drift Protocol is currently gaining attention after being listed on an exchange. On November 8, the South Korean exchange Upbit announced that DRIFT would be listed at 18:00 KST, with trading pairs in Bitcoin , USDT, and the Korean Won also Bianance will add DRIFTUSDT Perpetual Contract as well
This development triggered a 500% increase in trading volume for DRIFT which is insane, accompanied by an 90% price rise. Now trading at $0.91, this strong surge mirrors past trends observed with other tokens listed on Upbit.
In May 2024, the Drift Foundation launched DRIFT, its new governance token, through an airdrop of 120 million tokens 12% of the initial 1 billion DRIFT supply plus a bonus of 20 million tokens was included in the distribution, exceeding the original planned supply.
Drift Protocol’s co founder, Cindy Leow, explained that the bonus aimed to prevent network congestion and premature sales, enhancing the user experience and rewarding loyal traders.
Drift Protocol supports perpetual futures trading on the Solana Network, and DRIFT allows holders to propose and vote on governance improvements by staking.
The daily chart shows the Bollinger Bands widening, indicating increased volatility around DRIFT. However, the token’s price has reached the upper BB band, signaling potential overbought conditions, as reflected in the Relative Strength Index
The RSI currently stands at 78, which, being above 70, suggests an overbought asset. This indicates that DRIFT's price could undergo a short term correction, potentially dropping to $0.70. However, if buying pressure persists and profit-taking remains low, the altcoin may continue climbing, possibly surpassing $1
