With rumors of a $16 billion influx in the crypto market, will the FTT uptrend continue to scale new heights?
FTT Breakout Run Crosses $2
The FTT token has broken out of a long-coming triangle, marking the beginning of a bull cycle. Starting with a tweezer bottom at $1.265, the bull run has accounted for a 64.57% jump over the last two weeks.

The pullback continued with a 5.08% drop, with the FTT token trading at $2.03. Despite the pullback, the bullish influence over the 50-day EMA teases a bullish crossover with the 100-day EMA.
The $16B Repayment Rally
The excitement surrounding a potential settlement of the $16 billion repayment to creditors has propelled the FTT token. While rumors suggest that the settlement may begin within 24 hours, official distribution dates have yet to be confirmed.
Market observers are looking ahead to the upcoming Omnibus hearings scheduled for October 22, November 20, and December 12, which could mark significant repayment dates.
FTT Short-term Targets
Based on the short-term price action analysis, the trendline breakout puts multiple targets on the upside. With the immediate support at $2, a bullish continuation will target $2.26, $2.53, and $2.76.
