Stacks (STX) Aims for $2 Milestone in Recent Surge
Stacks (STX), a platform built on top of Bitcoin for executing smart contracts, has observed a surge in trading activity, marking a notable 36% increase in its trading volume.
The coin is currently priced at $1.86, with aspirations to breach the $2 mark. Over the past 24 hours, its market capitalization has risen by 4%, reaching $2.6 billion.
This upturn in Stacks‘ performance can be attributed to multiple factors, including its recent breakout from a long-standing resistance trendline, signaling a shift in sentiment among investors.
Additionally, the Stacks ecosystem has witnessed significant growth, particularly in terms of TVL, which has reached an all-time high of $64.3 million.
Looking ahead, a key event on the horizon is the anticipated Nakamoto upgrade mainnet launch, expected to occur around April 15th. This upgrade promises to facilitate decentralized transfers of Bitcoin between Layer 2 ecosystems, potentially driving further growth for Stacks.

Despite its recent price surge, Stacks has yet to surpass its all-time high price of $3.31 achieved in October 2021.
However, with its current circulating supply of 1.44 billion STX out of a maximum supply of 1.82 billion STX, and a yearly supply inflation rate of 6.97%, Stacks remains well-positioned for future growth and adoption, aligning with the broader resurgence of altcoins alongside Bitcoin’s trajectory.
