Decentralized ledger platform Hedera has posted a solid set of third quarter (Q3) results, in line with broader market trends as the digital asset landscape enters a potentially transformative fourth quarter, providing insights into the future of its native token, HBAR<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Hedera Achieves Record Revenue In Q3 Despite Price Corrections<\/h2>\n

Delving into the data<\/a>, Hedera\u2019s circulating market capitalization fell 21% quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) to $2.2 billion in Q3. This decline followed notable performances earlier in the year, dropping HBAR\u2019s market rank from 30th to 46th among all cryptocurrencies.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The circulating supply of HBAR also saw a slight increase of 5%, totaling 37.6 billion HBAR. The HBAR price dipped by 20%, decreasing from $0.08 to $0.06, reflecting market volatility and challenges the broader crypto sector faced during the period.<\/p>\n

Despite the price corrections, Hedera achieved substantial revenue milestones. Revenue generated from network transaction fees<\/a> reached an all-time high of 27.0 million HBAR in Q3, marking an 85% increase from the previous quarter and surpassing the prior record set in Q4 2023.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The dollar-denominated revenue also rose by 10% QoQ to $1.6 million, making the third quarter of 2024 the second-highest quarter for revenue in USD, just shy of its all-time high<\/a>. Hedera\u2019s Consensus Service was a significant contributor, with revenue increasing by 94% QoQ, accounting for 89% of the network\u2019s total revenue.<\/p>\n

Total Value Locked In HBAR Rises 9%<\/h2>\n

Staking activity also remained robust, with 22.3 billion HBAR staked, representing 59% of the circulating supply. This high staking percentage is attributed to entities like Hashgraph that actively participate in network consensus while forgoing staking rewards.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, both daily average new accounts and active accounts saw declines of 22% and 23%, respectively, indicating a potential slowdown in user acquisition.<\/p>\n

On the operational front, daily average contracts increased by 24%, driven by spikes throughout September. In the decentralized finance<\/a> (DeFi) space, while total value locked (TVL) in USD dropped 18% QoQ, the TVL in HBAR rose 9%, suggesting that the decline in USD value was primarily due to HBAR\u2019s price depreciation rather than capital outflows.<\/p>\n

As the network prepares for Q4, Messari forecasts an increase in circulating supply by approximately 287 million HBAR, primarily aimed at fostering ecosystem development and supporting open-source projects.<\/p>\n

HBAR Price Outlook<\/p>\n

HBAR, currently trading at $0.069, has shown relatively flat price action as it enters the fourth quarter, especially when compared to major digital assets like Bitcoin <\/a>(BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).\u00a0<\/p>\n

Over the past week, Bitcoin has gained 24%, while Ethereum has surged by 31%. In contrast, HBAR has seen a more modest increase of 17%.<\/p>\n

Despite this recent uptick, HBAR remains 90% below its all-time high of $0.5692 reached in September 2021. This stark contrast becomes more pronounced as Bitcoin achieves new all-time highs for four consecutive days and Ethereum approaches its peak.<\/p>\n

Looking forward, HBAR faces three critical resistance levels <\/a>that could hinder its upward momentum as the broader market appears ready to push higher.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Having recently broken out of a consolidation phase between $0.047 and $0.062, HBAR\u2019s first major resistance is at $0.078, a level that has acted as a barrier for the past four months.<\/p>\n

Should the Hedera token overcome this initial hurdle, it will then encounter additional resistance at $0.092 and $0.118, corresponding to the six-month and eight-month resistance levels, respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n

If HBAR can maintain its upward trajectory<\/a> and break through these key resistance points, it may inch closer to its previous all-time highs, especially if the gains seen in key metrics in Q3 continue and translate into further price action.<\/p>\n
