RENDER token has broken above $2.25 for the first time in over four months. On-chain data and trading volume are backing the move with hard numbers. 
Daily active addresses and new wallet creation both hit 12-week highs in a single session. Technical indicators on multiple timeframes are turning favorable. 
The GPU compute narrative that drove RENDER’s earlier gains is once again drawing market attention as AI infrastructure demand continues to build throughout 2026.

Santiment Intelligence flagged a sharp jump in <a href="https://blockonomi.com/render-network-burns-278-more-tokens-in-2025-as-ai-compute-demand-fuels-decentralized-gpu-growth/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">RENDER’s</a> on-chain activity during late May. Daily active addresses climbed to 394 in one session, while 118 new wallets were created the same day. 
Both readings were the highest in 12 weeks. These two metrics track how many unique wallets are interacting with the network and how many fresh participants are entering.

The jump in new wallets is particularly worth noting. New address creation reflects genuine ecosystem entry, not just existing holders moving funds. A 12-week high on that metric alongside price strength adds credibility to the move.
RENDER’s momentum throughout 2026 has been tied to AI infrastructure demand. The project operates as a decentralized GPU computing network supporting AI training, machine learning, and advanced rendering workloads. The network added tens of thousands of GPUs this year and expanded support for advanced <a href="https://parameter.io/nvidia-nvda-stock-expands-beyond-chips-through-high-profile-ai-investments/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">NVIDIA</a> hardware.
That infrastructure growth has kept the project relevant even during price drawdowns. On-chain activity bottoming out and reversing at the same time as price confirms that network usage is recovering alongside market interest.

Crypto analyst @2xnmore broke down the price action in detail. RENDER traded 9.8 million tokens on the day of the breakout, one of the largest daily volume bars in months. 
The four-hour candle that broke <a href="https://moneycheck.com/xrp-liquidity-cycles-drive-market-structure-beyond-short-term-price-swings/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">market structure</a> printed the highest volume on the entire chart at that timeframe.

 That number is not the story.
 The volume is.
 9.8 million RENDER traded on the daily. One of the largest volume bars in months.
 On the 4H the candle that broke structure printed the biggest volume bar on the entire chart.
 That is not a retail pump.… <a href="https://t.co/GG3azUhjOO" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pic.twitter.com/GG3azUhjOO</a>

The analyst noted that the prior downtrend from $4.50 to $1.20 came on declining volume, while the current move up is seeing expanding volume alongside expanding price. 
That pattern differs from a normal bounce and looks more like a structural reversal. The daily MACD has crossed bullish and the histogram has turned positive.
The RSI on the daily sits at 74, and on the four-hour it reached 79. A <a href="https://coincentral.com/grayscale-says-altcoin-prices-may-offer-entry-points-after-deep-market-pullback/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">pullback</a> or consolidation near $2.50 is the near-term scenario the analyst outlined. That level was prior support in 2025 before it flipped to resistance on the way down.
A clean close above $2.50 on strong volume would open the path toward $3.00 and then $3.50. Failure to hold it would put $2.00 back in focus as a retest zone before another upward attempt is made.
