The asset has a market capitalization of $12 billion and is ranked 20.In a new announcement, Binance listed PlayDapp (PLA), a blockchain gaming platform that is built on and utilizes both the Ethereum and Polygon networks to host a growing roster of interoperable games, and this is likely to have caused the uptrend in MATIC.

Matic has been trading in a downtrend for the past month and the prices have plunged almost by 35 per cent from their recent top of $2.2 and made the low of $1.443.However, the asset took support at the crucial level of $1.48 (61.8 per cent Fibonacci Retracement Level) and is showing signs of recovery.Matic has a strong resistance zone from $1.74 to $1.78, once the breakout occurs above these levels with good volumes then we may expect a strong rally and the asset may surge up to the $2 mark.
