Mitosis (MITO), a cryptocurrency powering the Mitosis’ Layer-1 blockchain that aims to enhance DeFi liquidity by making it more accessible and flexible, appears to be ready to propel its market momentum, according to data released today by market analyst Crypto Ronald. After climbing 5.4% and 0.2% over the past week and month, respectively, the DeFi token is displaying a promising upside setup, printing out a potential 50% price surge ahead.
On-chain data shows that MITO is a relatively new crypto asset that debuted its public trading on leading crypto exchanges (like Binance and several others) last year, on August 20, 2025, to enable mainstream users to access and interact with the decentralized token.

The Cup and Handle Pattern Presence and Its Implication
Today, the analyst identified a formation of a classic cup-and-handle pattern on MITO’s monthly trading chart, indicating a bullish breakout is imminent. The Cup and Handle pattern setup shows that while the asset’s bullish moves continue, MITO prepares to push the momentum higher.
The cup-and-handle pattern, which resembles a teacup, indicates that the MITO price recently built a rounded bottom (the cup) and was followed by the current correction (the handle) before experiencing a looming breakout. MITO’s price, which currently trades at $0.07712, has been up 4.4% over the past 24 hours, showing its consolidative movements.
According to the analyst, the breakout pattern could push Mitosis’s price 50% up soon. By measuring the cup’s depth and adding it to the breakout mark, MITO’s projected price target is $0.115305, which is expected to climb to the level in the coming days or weeks.
Although the pattern’s measured move projects a target of around $0.115305, the rally could witness resistance before climbing to that mark. Mitosis’s monthly chart indicated a completed cup-and-handle setup with a downward-sloping neckline that requires buyers to absorb selling pressure across numerous price levels rather than clearing a single resilience point.
The current price of Mitosis is $0.07712. Technical Structure Supported by Liquidity Inflows
Since its token’s public launch late August last year, Mitosis’ TVL grew from a low of $77.22 million to an ATH of $438.74 million, noticed in October. One of the catalysts behind Mitosis’s network’s growth is its innovative ability to enable crypto users to optimize liquidity across DeFi platforms. The network’s consistent TVL rises month over month reflects growing customer confidence in its DeFi services, as both institutional and individual clients continue to deposit assets into the network

Bitcoin Falls Below $70,000: PPI Exceeds Expectations + Powell's Hawkish Stance, Rate Cut Expectations Dampened
On March 19, Bitcoin pulled back to a key support zone due to unexpected U.S. inflation data and hawkish signals from Federal Reserve Chair Powell, declining over 4.6% and currently trading near $70,800. Market expectations for rate cuts have cooled, with the total crypto market cap declining to approximately $2.51 trillion and sentiment remaining cautious.

Bitcoin Fails to Break Higher: Why the $70,000 Level Remains Elusive? Key Indicators Reveal Upside Concerns
Bitcoin recently briefly broke through $74,000 but pulled back to around $70,800 due to selling pressure from short-term holders. While the price shows an upward trend, it faces structural resistance, and the current movement appears more like a bear market rally rather than the start of a bull market. Without effectively resisting selling pressure, it could break below the $70,000 support level. The market is still waiting for clearer signals.

TAO Price Surges 43% Before Hitting Key Resistance: Huang Ren-hsueh AI Narrative Drives Rally, But Pullback Risks Are Accumulating
Driven by artificial intelligence narratives, Bittensor (TAO) has increased by 43% in the short term and is approaching a resistance zone, but it faces the risk of a price slowdown. Market sentiment is linked to the NVIDIA CEO's speech, and the upward momentum driven by emotions is limited. Technical indicators show overbought conditions, and a short-term pullback below $250 is possible. If it breaks through $300, it could rise to $312 or $329.
