CoW Protocol ($COW ) saw a strong surge in volume over the past ~24 hours. The coin price broke through the $0.15 mark, with gains exceeding 50%, and short-term capital inflows noticeably accelerated.

From on-chain and market data, this round of unusual movement is mainly driven by three areas of convergence: first, market sentiment has warmed up again, and the MEV sector has regained attention; second, short-term funds have concentrated and poured in, with trading volume also expanding to around the $2.4 million level; third, a technical breakout signal has formed—there is relatively limited sell pressure above $0.15.

It’s important to note that $COW ’s current market cap is still around $58 million, with a relatively small circulating supply. While this also contributes to high short-term volatility, it means drawdown risk is amplified as well. When chasing the price, you must strictly control position sizing. Whether it can hold above $0.15 and push toward prior highs depends on whether trading volume can continue to expand; otherwise, a “fake breakout” pattern with a spike followed by a pullback is likely.

In terms of action, two key levels are worth watching: first, whether a valid support can form near $0.13 during a retest; second, after a volume-backed breakout above $0.18, whether it can open up room for a new wave of upside. Until the signals are confirmed, it is not advisable to take heavy positions to gamble.
