Can ZAMA reclaim $0.108?

On the daily chart, the next major technical objective for bulls sits around the $0.108 swing high. A continued expansion in TVL, sustained growth in Open Interest and elevated trading activity could provide the momentum needed for buyers to challenge that level.

All in all, the long term structure leans to the bulls favor and most fundamentals and on-chain metrics support an extended bullish momentum in the long run.
