Akash Network (AKT) To Climb Higher? This Potential Bullish Pattern Formation Suggests So!

The broader cryptocurrency market continues to show strong New Year momentum, with Bitcoin (BTC) up around 4% and Ethereum (ETH) gaining over 9% on a weekly basis. This improving sentiment is gradually spilling over into major altcoins — including the DePIN-focused token Akash Network (AKT).

AKT has already posted an impressive 20% weekly gain. While this short-term strength has caught traders’ attention, the more important development is unfolding on the higher-timeframe chart. Recent price action suggests a meaningful shift in market structure, hinting that AKT may be transitioning out of a prolonged corrective phase and into the early stages of a bullish continuation.

Falling Wedge and Rounding Bottom in Play

On the daily chart, AKT has been trading within a broader falling wedge — a structure that often precedes bullish reversals as selling pressure gradually weakens. Within this larger wedge, price action is also shaping a developing rounding bottom pattern, reflecting steady accumulation and seller exhaustion.

The formation began after AKT faced strong rejection near the $0.5441 resistance zone in late November. That rejection triggered a sharp sell-off, pushing price lower toward the $0.3465 region. However, bears failed to extend losses beyond this area. Instead, demand stepped in, downside momentum slowed, and price began to stabilize.

Over the following weeks, volatility compressed and AKT started to curl higher in a smooth, rounded fashion — closely matching the textbook behavior of a rounding bottom. Importantly, the recent rebound has pushed price back above the 50-day moving average around $0.4333, a level that had previously acted as resistance and is now beginning to flip into support.

What’s Next for AKT?

If AKT can continue to hold above the 50-day moving average, this area may act as a solid base for further upside attempts. From here, attention shifts toward the descending resistance trendline of the falling wedge, which aligns closely with the $0.5441 resistance zone.

A clean and decisive breakout above this confluence area, followed by sustained acceptance, would confirm a broader bullish expansion phase and mark a clear trend reversal from the prior downtrend. Such a move would likely attract renewed momentum participation as the market recognizes the structural shift.

Until that breakout occurs, the pattern remains in development. Short-term consolidation or shallow pullbacks are still possible as price digests recent gains. However, as long as AKT continues to print higher lows above the established base, the broader technical structure remains constructive.

Overall, the chart suggests AKT is approaching a critical inflection point — one that could determine whether this recovery evolves into a sustained bullish trend as 2026 progresses.

Bitcoin Fails to Break Higher: Why the $70,000 Level Remains Elusive? Key Indicators Reveal Upside Concerns

Bitcoin recently briefly broke through $74,000 but pulled back to around $70,800 due to selling pressure from short-term holders. While the price shows an upward trend, it faces structural resistance, and the current movement appears more like a bear market rally rather than the start of a bull market. Without effectively resisting selling pressure, it could break below the $70,000 support level. The market is still waiting for clearer signals.

Driven by artificial intelligence narratives, Bittensor (TAO) has increased by 43% in the short term and is approaching a resistance zone, but it faces the risk of a price slowdown. Market sentiment is linked to the NVIDIA CEO's speech, and the upward momentum driven by emotions is limited. Technical indicators show overbought conditions, and a short-term pullback below $250 is possible. If it breaks through $300, it could rise to $312 or $329.
