From the daily chart, ARB crypto broke above a double-top pattern, clearing July highs at $0.50. The mid-August 2025 breakout was accompanied by decent trading volume, signaling strong interest.
Although prices dipped in the second half of last week, following Bitcoin and Ethereum’s performance, the weekend bounce is noteworthy.
The upside momentum holds as long as ARB USDT prices remain above $0.50. A break above $0.60, confirming the breakout, could allow buyers to double down, possibly driving prices toward $1.
If this breakout is with high trading volume, ARB price could spike another 150% to December 2024 highs. This surge would be refreshing for ARB holders who endured a tough 2024.
Before the bounce in early November 2024, ARB crypto prices plummeted 80% over 10 months, crashing from $2.4 to below $0.50.
The December 2024 recovery was a dead cat bounce, as sellers returned, pushing prices to as low as $0.26 in April 2025.
The ARB USD bullish formation is not isolated. With Arbitrum breaking above key resistances in dollar terms, buyers are also reversing losses against BTC.
Based on the ARB BTC log chart, the token is poised to break above a key resistance trend line. If this breakout is also accompanied by above-average trading volume, ARB could rally against BTC.

The good news is that there are hints of an altcoin season forming. Over the past few weeks, Bitcoin’s dominance has been declining. Bitcoin accounts for 56.4% of the market, down from over 60% in June.
Meanwhile, Ethereum and other coins are gaining ground. Ethereum now holds over 13% of the market share, up from less than 10% in early July 2025.

As altcoins prepare to thrive, ARB may emerge as one of the best cryptocurrencies to invest in, despite token unlocks. In 2024, ARB crypto fell primarily due to token unlocks and an underperforming Ethereum. As ETH regains momentum, ARB is shaking off weaknesses.
On August 16, 2025, 92.65 million ARB worth over $44 million were released. A similar amount hit the market on July 16, and another 92.65 million ARB will be released next month.

Monthly token unlocks will continue until 2027. While previous unlocks slowed bulls, ARB remains firm, suggesting buyers are optimistic about the future, a bullish indicator.
