In a bold move to prevent Toncoin’s (TON) price from sliding further, crypto whales have stepped in to buy the cryptocurrency in large volumes. This influx of buying pressure comes after several instances where Toncoin appeared poised to drop to the $4 mark.

But over the last few days, bulls have ensured that the altcoin does not go below that threshold. With whales now in the picture, here is what could be next for TON.

Whales Scopp Over 13 Million Toncoin

According to IntoTheBlock, Toncoin’s large holders’ netflow surged by 44% over the past seven days. In the crypto space, large holders are addresses that control approximately 1% of a token’s total circulating supply. 

These major stakeholders often exert significant influence on price movements. When large holders’ netflow decreases, it signals that whales are selling more of the asset than they are purchasing. 

However, in Toncoin’s case, these holders accumulated roughly 13.83 million tokens on October 16, valued at over $72 million at the current price, indicating potential bullish momentum for the altcoin.

Beyond the increase in large holders’ netflow, Toncoin’s Coins Holding Time has also risen. This metric tracks how long a cryptocurrency has been held without being sold. A longer holding time often reflects growing confidence that the asset will generate favorable returns.

When the holding time decreases, it usually signals potential selling pressure, which could lead to a price drop. However, an uptick in holding time suggests that most holders are refraining from selling, which can strengthen buying momentum and raise the likelihood of a price hike.

TON Price Prediction: Eyes Above $6

A look at the daily chart shows that Toncoin’s price is $5.13. Although the current value is decreasing, BeInCrypto noticed strong support at $5.05. This support, which has historically prevented TON from undergoing a significant correction, could become vital again.

As it stands, TON’s price is unlikely to drop below this region. If that happens, the next move for the Telegram-native coin could be a run toward $5.80. But at $5.80, the altcoin might experience some level of resistance that might want to push it back.

However, if buying pressure continues to increase, Toncoin might successfully breach this zone, and its value might climb to $6.75.
