The lesser-known altcoin RIVER has defied the ongoing bear market, with its price spiking by double digits over the past seven days.<\/p>\n
Some analysts expect the rally to continue, while others view the project as a red flag and warn investors to stay away.<\/p>\n
RIVER is among the best-performing top 100 cryptocurrencies in the last week, jumping by 50% and currently trading at around $26 (per CoinGecko\u2019s data). At one point, its market capitalization neared $550 million, whereas as of this writing, it stands at around $500 million.<\/p>\n

Earlier this month, he claimed<\/a> that RIVER \u201cis looking bullish\u201d since it has formed an \u201cinverse head-and-shoulders\u201d pattern and predicted that a pump above $20 could open the door to $57. Later on, Martinez confirmed<\/a> the breakout, setting anything in the $45-$57 range as potential targets.<\/p>\n Kamran Asghar chipped in when RIVER was testing the \u201ccritical resistance zone\u201d around $23. Back then, he argued<\/a> that turning this into support could result in a \u201cclear run\u201d toward $40 and beyond.<\/p>\n Despite the impressive price increase, others remain quite skeptical toward the cryptocurrency. X user Julius Elum noted<\/a> that RIVER \u201clooks good in the chart,\u201d but claimed that it might be a \u201cmanipulatable token\u201d by whales. In his view, entry between $10 and $15 is safe, hopping on the bandwagon at around $20 is risky, while the current levels represent FOMO.<\/p>\n \u201cIt might be a planned liquidity grab. I don\u2019t chase setups if it has formed this obvious conviction. Because most times, it\u2019s a trap. I\u2019d rather take entry when the conviction is still in the doubt stage. But if I must risk it, I will do so with caution,\u201d the analyst concluded.<\/p>\n X user Nehal also sounded the alarm. They believe<\/a> that there are major red flags surrounding RIVER, suggesting that investors should be aware of more than just a pump-and-dump volatility. The analyst went even further, stating that many traders have reported losing money because the price has moved against their positions. In a subsequent post on March 18, Nehal forecasted<\/a> that RIVER could plummet below $5 soon.<\/p>\n Highlighting the risks related to the token is nothing new.
