Stellar Skyrockets 85% This Month, Another 85% In August Will See XLM At $0.65

 Data from Coinmarketcap.com Stellar XLM has seen some incredible gains this month, moving up from a price of $0.186 as recorded on the 30th of June 2018, up to a price of $0.347 as recorded on the 26th of July 2018. This equates to a price rise of around 85% through the month. As it stands, Stellar promises to continue to fly and might even break $0.650 through August, assuming this positive trend is able to continue. The current spike in the value of XLM is down to a number of different occurrences. Foremost, we need to consider the positive market climate. As it stands, all major cryptocurrencies are seeing gains of around 3% each day. Bitcoin is jumped up past $8,000.00 and is doing a great job of straightening the markets out, moving numerous tokens closer to a recovery from the past couple of months by the day. If the rise in Bitcoin continues then, (since Bitcoin dominance is high at the moment) we should consider that a bull run could be imminent, if so, prices will run up further and we could even expect XLM to not only surpass $0.65, but to actually surpass $1.00 too. Aside from the positive markets and Bitcoins bold movements, what else has contributed to the rise in XLM? A few days ago, Stellar announced a new partnership that promises to expand Stellars ability to provide remittance payments and cross border payment services. It’s almost a direct attack on Ripple and XRP, one that has in turn very much benefitted not only Stellar as a project, but XLM as a currency too. See our coverage of this story below.

Since XLM has climbed 85% during July, a month dominated by a bear market, then we can only see XLM progressing further than ever before within this new look bull market, that is setting us all up for a very exciting August indeed. Bitcoin could reach $10,000.00 and likewise, XLM could reach $1.00 and beyond.
