Jasmy price prediction: 2 reasons why ‘Japan’s Bitcoin’ surged

JasmyCoin price went parabolic this week as investors piled into Bitcoin alternatives after the biggest coin in the industry blasted past the $100k mark. Jasmy, often named the Japan’s Bitcoin, soared to a high of $0.0590, its highest swing since January 2022. It has jumped by over 963% from its lowest point this year.

Why did JasmyCoin price surge?

Jasmy, a popular Japanese cryptocurrency, has been one of the best-performing coins in the past few weeks. It has jumped by over 200% in the past 30 days, bringing its market cap to over $2 billion for the first time ever. 

JasmyCoin’s rally happened because of the strong rally made by Bitcoin this week. It crossed the important resistance level at $100,000 for the first time on Thursday. It then accelerated the uptrend, reaching an all-time high of near $104,000.

Bitcoin’s rally triggered interest in other related coins. For example, Ravencoin jumped to a high of $0.0358, its highest level since April this year. Similarly, Litecoin, a popular Bitcoin hard fork, jumped to $147, higher than the year-to-date low of $50.

Jasmy price has also jumped as the number of its holders has uncreased in the past few weeks. It now has almost 80,000 holders, much higher than the 76.3k it had a month ago. An increase in the number of holders is a sign that the coin is gaining more traction.  Most of Jasmy’s holders are in Binance, followed by Bybit and MEXC.

JasmyCoin also soared after the developers teamed up with IoTeX, a move that is intended to bring Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) to Japan. IoTex is one of the leading IoT networks in crypto with a market cap of $572 million.
