Other AI agent tokens, such as ai16z , Humans.ai, BasedAI, and Orbit were among the top gainers in the industry. It remains unclear whether these gains will hold, as the rebound could be part of a dead cat bounce — a temporary recovery in an asset experiencing a prolonged downtrend before it resumes its decline.

The token is currently trading slightly below the 50% Fibonacci retracement level. On the positive side, it has formed a long-legged doji candlestick pattern, which features a long lower shadow and a small body. This pattern is often considered a bullish reversal signal. Additionally, VIRTUAL has formed a falling wedge pattern, another bullish indicator. Based on these technical signals, the token may stage a strong rebound in the coming days, with investors targeting the next resistance level at $4 — representing a potential 40% upside from the current price. However, a drop below the lower part of the doji at $2.2260 would invalidate the bullish outlook. In such a scenario, the next key support level to watch would be $1.50.
