However, yesterday’s technical indicators for the digital asset, such as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and the 200-day EMA, indicated a potential bullish move.

Up 3.65%, the altcoin rose as high as $0.86 in the last 24 hour and broke above the $0.90 barrier.

The cryptocurrency has also seen a 1.90% surge in its trading volume which has further strengthened the bullish outlook of the asset.

MATIC is now enjoying one of the most impressive performances in the crypto space.

Though the asset still needs to reach the psychological $1 mark, it is very close to achieving its goal.

NFT Sales Soaring by Nearly 200%

A major contributor to MATIC’s success is the growth in their NFT division.

As per the data provided by Messari, since the beginning of September, MATIC’s NFT sales have increased by 191%, making it one of the most successful blockchain projects.

Experts say that the project’s integration with Starbucks and Meta (Instagram) have helped the coin a lot during the crypto crash.
