PancakeSwap (CAKE) Surges 56% as Whale Activity Explodes, 45% Rally Ahead?

In the current market uncertainty, whale interest appears to have shifted to CAKE, the native token of PancakeSwap. Recently, data from the on-chain analytics firm Santiment reported that PancakeSwap leads all assets in whale activity, having skyrocketed over the past week.

Whale Activity in CAKE Surges 440%

The report revealed that the percentage change in transactions made by whale wallets holding over $100,000 worth of CAKE increased by 439.71% over the past week, followed by HEX and Mantle (MNT), which recorded jumps of 275% and 144.44%, respectively, during the same period.

However, this massive whale activity might be the reason behind CAKE’s 56% upside momentum in the past week, while major assets like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), and XRP struggled to gain traction. Besides this strong rally, CAKE appears to be following a similar pattern.

Current Price Momentum

On March 22, 2025, the asset surged over 4.5% in the past 24 hours and is currently trading near $2.70. During the same period, its trading volume increased by 15%, indicating higher participation from investors and traders compared to the previous day.

With the massive price surge in recent days, CAKE has reached a crucial resistance level with a strong history of price reversals. In other words, this level has previously acted as a significant selling pressure zone.

Pancakeswap (CAKE) Technical Analysis and Upcoming Levels

According to expert technical analysis, CAKE has reached a strong resistance level at $3 and has been consolidating near this level for the past three days. Based on recent price action and historical momentum, if CAKE breaches this resistance and closes a daily candle above $3.05, there is a strong possibility that the asset could soar by 45% to reach $4.30 in the coming days.

On the other hand, if it fails to break the resistance, the asset could repeat its historical pattern and experience a price decline. Additionally, CAKE is now trading above the 200 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the daily timeframe, indicating that the asset is in an uptrend.
