HBAR Surges 801% in 30 Days Amid Increased Investor Interest
The native coin of Hedera Hashgraph, HBAR, has gained significant attention following a notable price increase. In four weeks, HBAR reversed a bearish trend that lasted over 1,000 days. Increased investor interest has led experts to make optimistic price predictions for this enterprise-grade public ledger.
At the time of writing, HBAR's price was $0.3173. Despite a 10% decline in the last 24 hours, it recorded an impressive 801% rally over the past month, pleasing investors.
Key factors driving this momentum include innovative upgrades, partnerships, and overall market optimism. HBAR's resurgence represents a shift in its positioning within the blockchain sector.
Aggressive Targets in the Bull Market
Experts project a potential price target of $5 for HBAR amid the ongoing bull market, with a more conservative estimate of $2.50 if the market peaks in April 2025. This optimism is based on expected major announcements, including a new privacy layer allowing users to create private network instances while remaining connected to the public ledger.
Dr. Leemon Baird, co-founder of Hedera, asserts that this privacy layer could impact sectors such as finance, healthcare, and supply chain management by addressing critical gaps in blockchain technology and providing secure, interoperable solutions.
Ripple Partnership Boosts HBAR Adoption
Hedera’s integration with blockchain payment systems enhances its appeal. Through Dropp, it plays a crucial role in the Federal Reserve's FedNow system, enabling rapid and secure transactions.
Additionally, its collaboration with Ripple (XRP) positions HBAR as a competitive player in USD transaction processing. The anticipated certification of the RLUSD stablecoin by Ripple in December could further solidify HBAR's role in the payments ecosystem, promoting broader adoption.
Performance Upgrade Establishes New Benchmarks
Hedera plans a substantial upgrade that may boost transaction throughput to 500,000 transactions per second (TPS), potentially making it the fastest blockchain network globally and altering market dynamics significantly.
$HBAR (Hedera) continuing to display significant strength here and can still be positioned to continue with ≈$0.504 still in play as a target!

The Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicates rising buying activity, but nearing overbought levels may lead to profit-taking. Nonetheless, projections suggest HBAR could rise to $0.504, nearly tripling its current value.
Open interest in HBAR trading has increased by 28% to $187 million, indicating growing confidence among investors. Ongoing developments in Hedera warrant close monitoring by investors and enthusiasts.
