🔥 $OVL surges amid market correction: numbers and reasons for the rise on January 6–7, 2026
During January 6–7, 2026, the
#Overlay Protocol (OVL) token showed one of the strongest gains on the market, sharply standing out against the backdrop of the overall cryptocurrency correction. Within a day, the OVL price increased by more than 150%, rising from around $0.035–0.04 to a peak near $0.095–0.10. The daily gain on January 6 exceeded +110%, triggering further momentum the following day.
The surge was accompanied by a significant increase in trading volumes — daily volume surpassed $1 million, several times higher than the average levels of the previous weeks. This indicates active inflow of speculative capital and heightened interest from traders.
Key factors include a technical rebound from a local bottom, breakthrough of key support levels, and the unique tokenomics of Overlay, where OVL issuance and burning directly depend on trader activity. Additionally, growing overall interest in the DeFi sector at the beginning of 2026 pushed capital toward low-cap but fundamentally interesting projects.
