At one point on Friday, 24 April, LayerZero [ZRO] recorded a 5.18% rally in 11 hours. This performance came after a bearish end to the previous week, when the interoperability protocol token shed 20% within three days. The LayerZero-based KelpDAO bridge exploit a few days ago represented $292 million, or 116,500 rsETH, worth of losses. KelpDAO blamed LayerZero’s RPC nodes and the 1-of-1 Decentralized Verifier Network. ZRO’s price bounce on Friday did not last long though. The altcoin’s price may be within a downtrend right now, but here’s why buyers might be interested as the token’s price continues to drop. ZRO range formation and the recent bearish trend Source: ZRO/USDT on TradingView On the daily chart, the bearish structure shift in recent days was marked in orange. The first break on 30 March was followed by a bounce just beyond $2.10. This bounce has been sold off, and ZRO made new local lows. And yet, for context, the token has been trading within a range (purple) throughout 2026. This range extended from $1.47 to $2.28, with the mid-range level at $1.88. The lows of the range have already been grazed, but another retest may be possible. Technicals signal severe bearishness The CMF has been lackluster in the past two months. It has struggled to climb above +0.05 even when ZRO rallied towards the range highs. This reflected a lack of steady capital inflows and hinted at seller dominance and distribution. The Directional Movement Index was also firmly bearish, with both the ADX and -DI lines above the 20-threshold. The MACD was in a freefall below the zero line to reflect the bearish momentum over the past two weeks. Despite the firm bearish signals, bulls need to remain on the lookout for a buying opportunity due to the range formation. Until a breakdown of the range occurs, they can anticipate a bounce from the lows. In February, ZRO swept the $1.35 region before rallying towards the range high around $2.30. Another such sweep is a possibility. Given the recent events, a breakdown below $1.35 is possible. However, from a technical analysis perspective, traders shouldn’t rush to short the token near the range lows. Final Summary KelpDAO’s exploit has hurt the sentiment around the ZRO token and put bearish pressure on the altcoin. A sweep of the $1.35-$1.50 local lows is possible soon, which can give a bullish short-term reaction.
Premium gym chains are entering a “golden era” that is ending or already in decline, as rising operating costs collide with shifting consumer preferences toward more flexible, community-based ways to exercise. Long-term memberships are shrinking, margins are pressured by higher rents and facility expenses, and competition from smaller, more personalized…
