Stellar (XLM) breaks multi‑month resistance, price jumps above $0.24

Stellar (XLM) surged more than 10% to trade around $0.25, breaking a resistance zone that had confined the token for months. Technical analysis shows the price now holding above the $0.24‑$0.26 area, with the Relative Strength Index at 60.13 and a narrowing MACD histogram suggesting continued upward momentum. The breakout transforms a prolonged downtrend into a potential recovery phase, and analysts see the next major psychological barrier at $0.30, with further resistance near $0.40‑$0.45.

In parallel with the price action, the Stellar network is expanding its use case through the integration of Zebec Payroll, a blockchain‑based payroll solution. Zebec’s deployment on Stellar aims to speed up cross‑border salary payments and improve operational efficiency for enterprises testing the technology. This development could bolster institutional confidence in the ecosystem and support longer‑term adoption, potentially reinforcing the bullish outlook for XLM.

If XLM can maintain levels above $0.24 and hold the reclaimed support around $0.18‑$0.19, the path toward $0.30 remains in play, though a loss of these key levels could reverse the recent gains.
