Key Takeaways
-
ATOM is up over 6% today and 17% on the week, with price bouncing from the $1.65 support, signaling improving short-term momentum.
-
The daily chart shows a Shark harmonic pattern, pointing to potential upside toward the $3.02–$3.35 zone if ATOM reclaims the 100-day moving average near $2.29.
-
Bulls must hold the $2.00 level to keep this setup intact — a breakdown below could weaken the bullish outlook.
ATOM, the native token of the Cosmos ecosystem (often called the Internet of Blockchains), is showing encouraging signs of strength despite recent market volatility. The token is up more than 6% today and has extended its weekly rally to around 17%, standing out as one of the stronger performers while Bitcoin and Ethereum cool off.

More importantly, ATOM’s daily chart is now flashing a well-known harmonic setup that could open the door for further upside in the near term.
Technical Patterns Hint at Upside Momentum
From a technical perspective, ATOM is currently forming a Bearish Shark harmonic pattern on the daily timeframe.
While this pattern is typically associated with a potential reversal once fully completed, it often allows for a short-term bullish continuation as price moves toward the final “C” leg — and that’s exactly what seems to be unfolding now.

Here’s what stands out on the chart:
-
The O–X–A–B structure has already completed.
-
Price found solid support near the B-point around $1.65, triggering a sharp bounce.
-
ATOM is now trading near $2.28, showing early stabilization after the recent sell-off.
-
Price is consolidating just below the 100-day moving average (~$2.29) — a level that’s acting as immediate resistance.
A clean reclaim of this 100-day MA would be an important technical confirmation and could flip this zone into new support, strengthening the bullish case.
What’s Next for ATOM?
Based on the harmonic structure visible on the chart, ATOM is projected to advance toward the $3.02–$3.35 zone, which represents the Potential Reversal Zone (PRZ) of the Shark pattern.
These targets line up closely with:
If momentum continues and broader market conditions remain supportive, ATOM could be setting up for a move of roughly 40–45% from current levels.
That said, bulls still have work to do.
On the downside, the $2.00 area is the key level to watch. As long as buyers defend this zone, the harmonic structure remains valid and the upside scenario stays in play. A sustained drop below $2.00 would weaken the setup and could delay any further recovery.

Trump's State of the Union address did not mention Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, and the market's expectations were disappointed, causing intense price volatility.
February 25 News, U.S. President Trump did not mention Bitcoin, blockchain, or cryptocurrency policies in his important policy speech (State of the Union Address) in February 2026, sparking significant attention in the crypto market. Previously, most investors expected Trump to signal regulation of digital assets, financial innovation, or the development of the crypto industry. Therefore, his "avoidance of mentioning cryptocurrencies" quickly became a key variable for traders interpreting macro sentiment.
From the content of the speech, Trump mainly focused on economic growth, employment, border security, and national security issues, without touching on any policy directions related to digital assets. This silence surprised some supporters of the crypto industry. Over the past two years, Trump has expressed a positive attitude toward Bitcoin and digital finance multiple times and supported crypto-related projects, leading the market to view him as a potential "crypto-friendly" politician.

Peter Schiff warns that Trump's State of the Union address could trigger a "sell-off," increasing the risk of a short-term pullback after Bitcoin's rally.
On February 25th, just before Trump delivered the State of the Union address, Bitcoin's price briefly surged from around $64,000 to nearly $66,000, sparking market discussions about policy expectations driving the rally. Although the short-term rebound boosted some crypto market sentiment, well-known gold advocate Peter Schiff expressed clear skepticism about this rally, believing it is more likely driven by speculative funds ahead of policy speeches rather than genuine demand improvement.
Peter Schiff posted on social media that traders might be betting on Trump mentioning Bitcoin in the State of the Union, thus buying in advance to create upward momentum. He emphasized that if the speech does not mention cryptocurrencies, market sentiment could decline; even if it does, a "profit-taking" sell-off could still occur. Such expectation-driven volatility is common in macro event cycles, often accompanied by high fluctuations and short-term capital battles.
