- EOS jumped above $5.0 during Asian hours.
- The first important hurdle comes at $5.65.
EOS, the 5th largest coin with the market cap $4.6B and average daily trading volume $435M is changing hands at $5.16 after spiking to $5.30 during Asian hours. The coin has gained over 6% on a daily basis and 4.5% since the beginning of Monday.
The recent sharp rise of EOS might have been caused by a large buying order, spotted by cryptocurrency traders.
“Someone just bought >$1M of $EOS at $5.17 on Binance,” Ashe Oro, crypto economist, and entrepreneur wrote in his Twitter account.
