Polkadot Price Rockets Past $3.25 Mark, Bulls Eye $3.61 Amid Altseason Hopes?

I have watched Polkadot price deliver a stunning comeback in the past 24 hours. This is with its price leaping by 14.22% to $3.25 and capping a weekly gain of nearly 12%. The breakout did not happen out of the blue. It’s a proven example of how surging technical momentum and ecosystem growth can fuel an asset’s rise. 

For months, DOT traders kept their eyes on the $2.85 resistance line, a stubborn ceiling that had capped gains since July 2025. When DOT sliced through that level, it was as much about market conviction as it was about bullish signals flashing across the charts.

The price rally connects directly to a series of bullish events. First, a strong technical breakout. At the same time, Polkadot’s development pipeline buzzed with energy, as over 2,000 builders joined the latest DOT hackathon. The broader market’s hunt for the next big altseason winner only added to the fire. 

Will DOT Price Sprint to $3.61 or Stall Near $3.19?

Polkadot’s price suggest the bulls are steering the ship after months of sideways action. The highlight? DOT price soared above the pivotal $2.85 resistance, clearing it with conviction on a massive volume surge of $918.8 million, up 123.75% for the day. This rally printed a fresh local high of $3.52 before pulling back.

The 4-hour chart’s MACD histogram sits in bullish territory, and RSI14 just rose above 70. Typically, this tells me that price targets can be reached quickly, assuming the hype doesn’t fade. That being said, immediate resistance stands at $3.61, the 23.6% Fib line. Which I expect DOT could attempt to hit within the next 48 to 72 hours if buy pressure keeps up.

 If DOT conquers $3.61, the $4.00 psychological barrier comes into view. Contrarily, failure to close above $3.30 or a drop below $3.19 could invite short-term profit-taking. Which could send DOT back toward $2.85 for a retest. If bearish volume creeps in, the fall may stretch to $2.46, but the bullish bias dominates until proven otherwise. As long as buyers hold the $3.19 level, DOT’s upward potential remains very much alive.

What Do Investos Have To Say?

Analyst and investor Capo, highlights on X that Polkadot is forming a pattern similar to ZCash. And could soon post a parabolic move to new highs.
