$MANTA has been grinding in a tight range between $0.075 and $0.085. It feels like a spring being coiled, especially with the "Manta Labs" expansion starting to actually ship products.
The Immediate Setup
We’re currently testing the $0.08 support level.
* The Resistance: We’ve got a stubborn ceiling at $0.10. If we can flip that psychological barrier, the "bullish divergence" we’re seeing on the daily chart suggests a fast trip to $0.22.
* The Support: If we lose $0.075, things could get messy. However, with the BTC dual-staking going live this quarter, there's a new layer of "sticky" liquidity that wasn't there last year.
Why the 2026 Narrative is Shifting
The reason I’m still watching this is the move into "AI + Culture." The SuperFortune app (that AI metaphysics play) is actually pulling in 30k daily users. In a market where most L2s are ghost towns, seeing actual retail usage in the Asian markets is a huge green flag. Plus, the 5% GUA token airdrop for MANTA stakers is finally creating a reason to hold rather than just flip.
Expect some short-term volatility around the February 18th unlock ($18M hitting the market). But for the rest of 2026, if the app ecosystem takes off, I’m looking at a recovery target of $0.30 to $0.45. It’s a bet on "utility over infrastructure."
