Sui (SUI) has been one of the most popular crypto assets of 2024, with notably high market gains and drastic price losses over the year. The altcoin is currently moving sideways following a recent price rally in the last week. As usual, these consolidative movements draw much speculation on the token’s next price action.

SUI To Record ATH At $2.50, Analyst Says

In an X post on Saturday, market analyst Michaël van de Poppe dropped a new price target for SUI based on its current bullish momentum. According to data from CoinMarketCap, SUI recorded a 30.01% profit in the last seven days, emerging as the second-highest weekly gainer in the crypto market. Amidst this price gain, the digital asset already notched a new all-time high of $2.28. However, Van de Poppe’s forecast projects the altcoin to maintain its current uptrend and attain a new peak between $2.30 – $2.50.

For example, the asset’s price is well above its 100-day simple moving average indicating it is potentially overbought and may be due for a price correction This position is further backed by the token’s RSI which is well in the overbought zone.

Generally, SUI is one of the best-performing coins of 2024 with an overall price gain of 182.5% since the start of the year. However, it has been a bipolar market experience for the layer-1 asset which lost about 71.5% of its value between April and August

Interestingly, SUI has been tipped by analysts to emerge as the diamond of the upcoming bull season with the potential to replicate Solana’s performance in 2021. If this projection proves true, it could rise as high as $70 over the next 12-18 months.
