The $UNI token, a decentralized governance token based on Ethereum, has maintained sustainable upward momentum for the first time since the beginning of 2025. The cryptocurrency has regained seven bullish weekly candles over the past eight weeks, surpassing a long-term downward trend and forming a traditional bullish structure.

Uni swap bounced from its annual low of $4.551 on April 7, after experiencing one of the sharpest declines in the cryptocurrency market of 2025.

A downward trend lasted for several months with a rise of 70%

The price of $UNI decreased from $19.469 in December 2024, marking a decline of 76.5% in less than five months. However, the reversal of the cryptocurrency's price on April 7 was significant following the massive surge that UNI experienced in the first week of May, which provided a new perspective on the cryptocurrency.

Analysts expect breaking $8 as the next bullish signal

Meanwhile, UNI tested another significant resistance level last week by rising above the Fibonacci level of 0.236, which coincides with the psychological resistance around the $8 area. The price rose to $8.688 before retreating to close the week at $7.181. However, the decentralized exchange governance token resumed its upward movement with a rise of 14.32% in less than 48 hours.
