SIREN Surges 190% While SOON Jumps on Upbit Listing—What’s Next?

Key Takeaways
  • SIREN surged as whales re-accumulated over 90% of the supply, restricting circulation and driving price higher.
  • SOON rallied after an Upbit listing, with rising OI and bearish sentiment creating short-squeeze conditions.
  • Both rallies show strong momentum but carry high volatility risk, with potential pullbacks if momentum weakens.

The crypto market didn’t just move today. It rotated.

While major assets, including Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP, held relatively steady, attention shifted toward smaller tokens.

Interestingly, two names quickly stood out. SIREN and SOON, two tokens built on the Solana blockchain, have emerged as the top gainers among the top 400 assets in the market.

But the drivers of the rally are different. In this analysis, CCN explains why SIREN’s price is up and why SOON crypto has exploded.

SIREN Whales Take Back Control of 93% Supply

Over the past seven days, SIREN’s price has increased by 190%. Interestingly, the token is not just rallying; it’s recovering.

Previously, CCN reported how SIREN collapsed 91% from its all-time high. Today, at current levels, it is just 43% away from retesting that peak.

However, the sudden surge is no accident. Large-scale investors are back, according to data from Chinese on-chain analyst EmberCN.

According to the revelation, the same whale entities that sold off SIREN in late March and early April have now aggressively re-entered the market.

“SIREN The dealer is reclaiming the chips that were dumped out at the beginning of the month, re-establishing control over more than 93% of the tokens, and now they’re at it again with some “fierce manipulation.” EmberCN wrote.

By withdrawing tokens from exchanges and moving them into private wallets, they effectively choked off the available supply.

As a result, even modest buying pressure is pushing the SIREN price higher.

SIREN Price Forecast

From a technical perspective, the 4-hour chart shows that the SIREN crypto price has broken above the 0.236 and 0.382 Fib levels.

At the same time, it is reclaiming both the 20 EMA (blue) and 50 EMA (yellow), which are now acting as support.

Notably, the breakout has extended to the 0.5 ($1.64) level and is now testing the 0.618 ($2.00) zone. This reflects aggressive demand and strong follow-through.

Meanwhile, the structure is shifting to the bullish side. The reclaim of previous horizontal resistance confirms a trend reversal from accumulation into expansion.

In addition, the steep angle of the move suggests momentum is accelerating. However, the move is becoming extended.

Large vertical candles indicate potential short-term exhaustion.

Therefore, a brief consolidation or pullback around the $1.60 zone could occur before continuation.

If SIREN’s price holds above $1.64, continuation toward $2.50 at the 0.786 Fib ratio will likely follow.

However, if rejection occurs at current levels, a retest of the breakout zone will likely develop before the next move higher.

SOON Surge Driven by Listing Momentum

While SIREN’s move appears tied to recovery, the rally in SOON is being driven by a clearer catalyst — a major exchange listing.

Earlier today, Upbit, one of South Korea’s largest crypto exchanges, confirmed that it had added SOON to its platform, with trading opening on the KRW market.

As is often the case with Upbit listings, the market reacted quickly. SOON’s price jumped sharply, with its market value rising around 81% within just a few hours.

But the price surge isn’t the only thing worth noting.

On-chain data from Santiment shows a more complex setup forming beneath the surface.

OI is climbing to new highs, suggesting that fresh positions are entering the market rather than the move being driven purely by spot buying.

At the same time, sentiment is moving in the opposite direction.

Weighted sentiment is dropping deeply negative, even as the price is rising.

This indicates that the majority of traders are positioning bearishly, likely opening shorts into the move.

As a result, the market is becoming crowded on the short side.

This is creating short-squeeze conditions. If prices continue to rise, these short positions will likely be forced to close, adding fuel to the rally.

Notably, such setups often lead to continued upside before a reversal.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                              SOON’s price could trade higher in the short term.

However, risks are building.

If the OI remains elevated while price stalls, the move could unwind quickly. In that case, both trapped shorts and late longs would likely exit, increasing volatility.

SOON Price Prediction

On the technical side, the daily chart shows that SOON has broken above the upper trendline of a descending triangle.

At the time of writing, the altcoin has reclaimed the 0.236 Fibonacci level and is pushing into the 0.382 Fib near $0.27.

Meanwhile, the Bull Bear Power (BBP) has flipped strongly positive. This reflects aggressive buyer dominance after a long period of negative pressure.

At the same time, holder sentiment is spiking higher. This suggests market participants are turning bullish, likely in response to the breakout.

However, the move is becoming extended in the short term.

As shown below, the SOON crypto price is approaching the 0.5 Fib ($0.30), which serves as the next key resistance.

If the price holds above the breakout zone ($0.23), continuation toward $0.30 and potentially $0.35 (the 0.618 golden ratio) will likely follow.

However, if momentum fades, a retest of the pre-breakout level could occur before continuation. In that case, the token could slide to $0.10.
