The post Decred Price Jumps 17% While Markets Stall: Why DCR Is Suddenly Back in Focus? appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
While many major cryptocurrencies moving sideways, Decred (DCR) pushed sharply higher, rising more than 17% and becoming one of the session’s strongest performers. DCR didn’t wait for the rest of the market to make up its mind.
For months, Decred price traded in a narrow range, with volatility steadily fading and participation thinning out. During that period, supply dynamics quietly tightened. A large chunk of DCR remains staked, limiting the amount available on the open market. At the same time, the project’s governance-driven approach kept treasury spending controlled, avoiding the dilution concerns that often weigh on older assets.
That combination left DCR lightly positioned. When buyers finally stepped in, there simply weren’t many sellers left to absorb the demand. Currently DCR price trades close to the immediate supply zone of $28-$30, which if surpasses a major rally would be seen ahead.
Decred’s price chart shows a clear transition from compression to expansion. For the past few months, DCR price has been trading in downtrend, forming a falling wedge pattern. With the beginning of 2026, DCR succeeded in breaching the trendline barrier and gained momentum. Thereafter, DCR showed signs of accumulation and built a base around $20.
After base formation, DCR started moving higher and gained traction. Now, DCR is set to spread its next bullish leg, eyeing $50 as the major target for the next sessions. The short-term moving averages curl upwards, underlining that DCR price structure flipped positive and a massive rally is unfolding now, outperformance ahead.
As long as the DCR price stays above $22, the technicals favor continuation and further upward move may push DCR toward $30 followed by $50 in the near term. While a drop below $22 would invalidate the bullish thesis and may lead to consolidation move around $20 ahead.
Overall, Decred’s price rally is less about momentum and more about structure finally asserting itself. With supply tight, sellers muted, and price holding above key EMAs, DCR has shifted from a forgotten chart to one the market can no longer ignore.

BitGo’s move creates further competition in a burgeoning European crypto market that is expected to generate $26 billion revenue this year, according to one estimate. BitGo, a digital asset infrastructure company with more than $100 billion in assets under custody, has received an extension of its license from Germany’s Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin), enabling it to offer crypto services to European investors. The company said its local subsidiary, BitGo Europe, can now provide custody, staking, transfer, and trading services. Institutional clients will also have access to an over-the-counter (OTC) trading desk and multiple liquidity venues.The extension builds on BitGo’s previous Markets-in-Crypto-Assets (MiCA) license, also issued by BaFIN, and adds trading to the existing custody, transfer and staking services. BitGo acquired its initial MiCA license in May 2025, which allowed it to offer certain services to traditional institutions and crypto native companies in the European Union.Read more
