Hedera’s HBAR Ignites: What’s Behind the Explosive Surge?
Hedera Hashgraph’s HBAR is stealing the spotlight after an electrifying three-day rally, cementing its status as one of the hottest performers in the market right now. The token surged to $0.27 on Saturday, marking a 17% leap from its weekly low and an eye-popping 110% climb since April—pushing its market cap beyond $11 billion. But this surge isn’t just market noise; it’s fueled by powerful catalysts that are reshaping HBAR’s momentum.
The biggest spark? Robinhood. The trading giant, boasting a $92 billion market cap and millions of users, officially listed HBAR—opening the floodgates to a massive wave of retail investors. Robinhood’s crypto volume has been on fire too, jumping to $46.1 billion in Q1 from $36 billion last year, and HBAR is now riding that wave. Add to that a 9% jump in Hedera’s stablecoin supply in just a week (now at $210M) and a booming DeFi ecosystem—Stader’s TVL is up 55%, SaucerSwap up 68%, and Bonzo Finance climbing to $52M—and it’s clear: HBAR’s rally isn’t luck, it’s a momentum machine gaining speed.
