Orca Token ORCA Surges 23% on Governance Proposal
The cryptocurrency market remained relatively stable, but $ORCA, the native token of the Solana-based decentralized exchange Orca, stood out with a significant surge. The token's price climbed over 23% in the last 24 hours, reaching approximately $2.48. This rally was accompanied by a trading volume that was 12 times higher than usual, suggesting that the move might not be a brief, low-volume spike.
One of the key drivers behind this surge was a governance proposal aimed at directing more protocol revenues to $ORCA holders. The proposed system includes staking rewards, buybacks, and a potential “fee switch” mechanism, all designed to boost demand for the token.
However, indicators show that short-term risk is increasing. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) for $ORCA has risen above 80, placing the altcoin in the overbought region.
