The altcoin traded at $2.70 during this publication, following a nearly 20% gain over the past week.
Qtum’s daily trading volume jumped 30% to $54.58 million, indicating massive user activity.
Meanwhile, broad market sentiments remain vital in shaping the altcoin’s near-term trajectory.
Bears resurface after the latest recovery, triggering a 1.07% decline in the global crypto market capitalization.
Bitcoin holds steady above $64.5K as bulls fight back, and the bellwether crypto could reclaim yesterday’s high of $65.95.
Qtum 2024 prediction
The altcoin’s current price is way far from the $92 ATH attained in 2018.
Nevertheless, that shows $QTUM has immense growth potential, with movements towards the record peaks translating to massive gains.
Latest trends within the DeFi market and Ethereum-based projects have seen smart contracts flourishing.
Qtum will likely witness increased demand in the financial space. Moreover, its connection with Bitcoin means a robust performance for $QTUM when $BTC touches levels above $100K.
Besides offering a safe and reliable platform for smart contracts development and implementation, the $QTUM blockchain provides services tailored to commercial customers.
Demand from businesses amid broad market rallies will likely propel Qtum to the $6 – $10 price range by 2024-end.
