Band Protocol price goes up by 21 percent
Following its launch, Band Protocol saw an unimpressive performance, but right now, it has surged by 20 percent with no indication of how far it might get this time.
Initially, after it’s launch, the token had a rather poor start sitting at $0.619. However, instead of rising, its price went down for months, eventually hitting its bottom at $0.22 in January. Although it attempted to pick form around February, it, however, found itself at the bottom.
Band started seeing a recovery around March, and it has continued since then. The coin surged impressively in April, hitting $1.25, and by May, it surged again, hitting a new peak at $1.88 by June 4.
A correction happened seeing BAND skyrocket from $1.13 to $4,8 by July. Since then, BAND has been surging up, more than doubling its price from its last peak. At the moment, the coin sits at $9.67, with $10 being its next big challenge.
