XLM’s Price Breakout Looms with 36% Surge in Key Metric

  • XLM’s trading volume surged 36%, signaling possible price rebound.
  • Price holds above $0.361 support despite recent market fluctuations.
  • Visa partnership strengthens Stellar’s prospects for broader institutional adoption.

Stellar — XLM , has caught traders’ attention after a dramatic spike in trading activity. Recently, the network’s trading volume jumped more than 36 percent, signaling a potential shift in momentum. Investors who have watched recent price slips now sense a spark of hope. The sudden rise in volume feels like a tide turning, hinting at renewed strength. Could this surge ignite a rally that pushes Stellar toward the long-awaited $0.05 mark?

Stellar $XLM Sees 10% Open Interest Surge Amid $0.5 Breakout Hopes

Stellar (XLM) has experienced a 10% increase in open interest, with bullish market participants pushing for a breakout above the $0.5 price level. This momentum has attracted significant attention from traders…

Trading Volume Fuels Optimism

Stellar’s market performance has slipped over the past few weeks, dropping more than six percent in the last thirty days. However, in the last twenty-four hours, trading volume exploded to around $302.7 million, a jump that indicates a rise in investor interest. Typically a price rebound may be happening with this type of volume spike, or at least it reflects a return in confidence. Recently, Stellar went from a low price of $0.3556 to a high of $0.3813, and for the time being, XLM is trading close to a price of $0.3653 which is a minor drop of 1.38 percent from the high.

Market sentiment is also reinforced by recent institutional partnerships. In July 2025, Visa adopted Stellar as a part of its stablecoin settlement platform. Henceforth, Visa users can settle transactions directly on the Stellar network. The benefit here is that it allows for cross-border payments in a more efficient manner, faster and at a lower cost. Therefore, constant speed and reduced fee create a competitive advantage for Stellar as it creates a pathway for greater adoption.

Can Stellar Reach the $0.50 Target?

Community members still keep faith after disappointment. Early in September, many had voiced to expect a rally to $0.50 given historical seasonal performance, as historical averages for September show an over three percent average gain, and an even stronger gain in 2024’s September. This month has not rewarded the forecast, but the latest bump in trading keeps hope alive.

There are only a few days remaining in September, and time is short, but the chance remains, and crypto prices can shift in hurricane speed at the drop of a hat, so there is always a chance for a sudden shift in demand to change a chart worth of data overnight. The 36 percent increase in trading volume is just that, like a heart beating faster in anticipation as the runner awaits the gun.

Now, whether Stellar can break the threshold of $0.50 remains to be seen, as volume growth continually needs to sustain this swing. We also hope that institutional adoption will also sustain the momentum, especially the Visa collaboration, to achieve a new demand baseline.
