The Stellar blockchain's native coin, <a href="https://u.today/xlm-spikes-10-as-stellar-ceo-is-set-to-testify-at-full-committee-hearing" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">XLM</a>, has recently experienced an astonishing rise. On July 13, XLM saw an enormous 104% increase, peaking at $0.196. The price did retreat, though, as profit-taking started to happen. 
The cryptocurrency is currently enjoying a new rise, which started on July 18 when bulls confirmed support near $0.125. 
At the time of publication, <a href="https://u.today/ripple-rival-stellar-xlm-benefits-from-xrps-recent-run-with-17-weekly-gains" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Stellar</a> had increased in price over the previous 24 hours to $0.14 and is up 43.40% over the previous week. Notably, XLM is the best-performing cryptocurrency asset among the top 100, according to CoinMarketCap data. XLM is outperforming XRP, which sits in fourth place among gainers. 
The positive news for the XLM price is that the daily moving averages MA 50 and 200 have made a positive crossing, otherwise known as the "golden cross." Traders should watch out for the continuation of the rally in the days ahead. A break past the $0.20 level might signal the start of a fresh uptrend for Stellar XLM.
