Polkadot is an open-source interoperability protocol that enables interaction between blockchain networks. It is a layer-0 metaprotocol that allows trust-free messages transfer between diverse blockchains, enabling them to share their unique features while pooling their security. Polkadot uses a native token, DOT, for governance, staking, and bonding.

Cryptocurrencies like DOT follow a cyclic price pattern that causes them to move with ups and downs in price. Sometimes, observing an asset’s previous price behaviors, including technical and fundamental analysis, allows investors to predict future price action.

Exploring the price history of cryptocurrencies could give a better idea of what could happen to their future price. That is because, as stated earlier, cryptocurrencies, including DOT, move in a repetitive cyclic pattern. And these price patterns, if analyzed, could hint at future price actions. The following summarizes Polkadot’s price trends over the past few weeks.

As a cryptocurrency DOT has witnessed several ups and downs since its launch. DOT’s current price is over 137% higher than its all-time low price of $2.70 on August 20, 2020. And since January till date, DOT price has increased by approximately 49.43%.

DOT started the year at $4.37 and increased steadily to $6.59 on January 23, a 50% increase within 21 days. The coin price continued rising, with a few pullbacks here and there, slightly crossing the $7 mark before losing momentum.
