Is Arbitrum Poised for a 150% Surge? ARB Crypto at the Threshold of a Significant Breakthrough

Ethereum’s thriving success is lifting up ecosystem tokens like Arbitrum. While ETH USD’s momentum seems to be slowing, premier tokens associated with the leading automated agreement protocol are flourishing. In this light, ARB crypto is poised for a significant price breakout, as indicated by the formation on its daily chart.

According to Coingecko, Arbitrum stands out among the top-performing cryptocurrencies, firmly earning its place as one of the best cryptos to buy. Over the past 24 hours, ARB ▼-1.06% has surged almost 10%, marking its weekly gains at over 16%.

At this rate, the coin has gained over 40% in the last two weeks, recuperating July’s losses and pushing its monthly profits to above 14%.

Remarkably, ARB has nearly recovered from its past year’s losses. Currently, ARB USD is down just 0.1% year-to-date, reflecting the strength of buyers.

Is ARB Crypto Set for a 150% Surge?

The daily chart reveals that ARB crypto has surpassed a double-top pattern, breaching July highs at $0.50. The upward movement from mid-August 2025 was supported by significant trading volume, indicating strong demand.

Although prices dipped in the latter half of last week due to Bitcoin and Ethereum’s trends, the bounce over the weekend is significant.

The upward momentum should persist as long as ARB USDT prices hodl above $0.50. A breakout above $0.60 could reinforce buyer confidence and lead prices toward $1.

Should this breakout occur with high trading volume, ARB’s price could surge another 150% toward the December 2024 highs. Such a rise would be invigorating for ARB holders who faced a challenging 2024.

Before bouncing back in early November 2024, ARB crypto experienced an 80% drop over 10 months, collapsing from $2.4 to beneath $0.50.

The recovery in December 2024 was merely a brief surge, as sellers returned and prices fell to as low as $0.26 in April 2025.

The uptrend formation of ARB USD is not singular. With Arbitrum breaking through significant resistances in dollar terms, buyers are also recuperating losses against Bitcoin.

Judging by the ARB Bitcoin log chart, the crypto token is on the verge of surpassing a key barrier level trend line. If this breakout occurs with above-average trading volume, ARB could rise against Bitcoin.

One investor on X believes Arbitrum will spearhead the upcoming non-BTC crypto season.

Bitcoin Dominance Decreasing, Arbitrum Bulls Soak Up Circulating supply

The positive side is that there are signs of an emerging altcoin season. Recently, Bitcoin’s dominance has been dwindling. BTC represents 56.4% of the crypto market, down from over 60% in June.

In contrast, Ethereum and other cryptocurrencies are gaining traction. ETH now commands over 13% of the trading market share, a rise from under 10% in early July 2025.

As altcoins gear up for a boost, ARB might stand out as one of the best cryptocurrencies to invest in, notwithstanding token unlocks. In 2024, ARB crypto mainly slumped due to crypto token unlocks and an underwhelming performance from Ethereum. With Ethereum recapturing its momentum, ARB is overcoming previous weaknesses.

On August 16, 2025, 92.65 million ARB, valued at over $44 million, were released into the trading market. A similar volume was released on July 16, with another 92.65 million ARB set for release next month.

Monthly token unlocks will persist until 2027. Although past unlocks initially hampered bulls, ARB maintains durability, indicating that buyers are optimistic about the future, which is a uptrend sign.
