Dash Reenters Top 100 as Privacy Coin Rally Defies Market Downturn

Dash has seen a sharp resurgence, climbing over 64% in the past week and 34% in the last 24 hours, reaching a current price of $56. This sudden growth has brought Dash back into the top 100 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization – a position it hasn’t held in a long time.

This rise comes despite a sharp correction across the broader crypto market. Most major tokens have dropped by double-digit percentages in recent days after President Trump announced a new wave of tariffs on Chinese imports.

Dash, however, has moved in the opposite direction, benefiting from renewed attention on privacy-focused cryptocurrencies, which has also lifted Zcash (ZEC) to prices not seen in years.

Technical Indicators Signal Possible Cooldown

On the technical side, Dash is currently trading above the upper Bollinger Band, which stands at $47.56. This is often interpreted as a signal that the asset may be temporarily overbought. Should selling pressure increase, the next area to monitor is the Fibonacci support near $48.89. This could act as a temporary floor in the event of a retracement.

Simultaneously, RSI indicators are also showing overbought conditions, with RSI(14) at 84 and RSI(7) at 90. Historically, values at these levels often precede short-term corrections.

External Factors Still Supportive

As we mentioned, the rally in Dash is not occurring in isolation. Zcash and other privacy-related tokens have also experienced strong gains this week. Some market analysts attribute this to a return of interest in the privacy sector – a narrative that was prominent during earlier market cycles.

While it is unclear how long this trend will continue, Dash’s reappearance in the top 100 and strong price movement during a wider downturn has drawn attention. At the same time, the technical indicators suggest that further upward movement may face resistance in the short term – but will likely depend also on developments with Trump’s new tariffs.
