VeChain is entering a critical phase as it approaches two major upgrades, with the price trading at $0.01344. Despite a 2.68% daily decline, it has gained 5.99% over the past week.
The VeChain Foundation has continued its development efforts, focusing on real-world integration through its VeChainThor blockchain. This includes the planned Hayabusa mainnet upgrade set for December 2, 2025.
The upgrade will transition the network to a Weighted Delegated Proof-of-Stake (WDPoS) system, aiming to improve reward structures and reduce VTHO inflation by around 30%.
The upgrade also aims to align staking incentives more directly with actual network usage. This follows the launch of the Galactica upgrade part of the Renaissance roadmap, which introduces changes to tokenomics and improves cross-chain compatibility.
Technical Indicators Show Weak Momentum Near Resistance
On the 4-hour chart, VeChain (VET) is priced at $0.01339, slightly lower by 0.74%. Technical indicators suggest that the price is consolidating near the upper Bollinger Band at $0.01417. This level could act as short-term resistance if bullish momentum does not strengthen.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) currently reads 43.33 and is moving below its 14-period average of 52.54. This signals fading bullish strength. Traders are monitoring the middle Bollinger Band, which is around $0.01372. A decline below this level could expose the price to further downside risk.
Support levels are observed at $0.0130 and $0.0120. Maintaining price action above these levels could allow for consolidation. If momentum recovers, $0.0150 remains the key resistance zone for a potential retest of previous consolidation levels.
Outlook on Adoption and Network Upgrades
The VeChain ecosystem continues to attract enterprise use cases and partnerships despite market instability. The upcoming upgrades are part of long-term strategies to support adoption in sectors such as supply chain and sustainability.
With new staking models and tokenomics, the project aims to strengthen its position within the Layer 1 blockchain space. Stakeholders are watching closely as the network prepares for structural upgrades that focus on performance and utility.
