$RIVER River’s recent ~1,300%+ rally reflects a mix of speculative momentum and real catalysts in crypto markets. Strategic capital injections, most notably about $8 million from Justin Sun and TRON DAO, helped push price and attention higher, alongside broader exchange listings that expanded liquidity and visibility.  The surge also happened despite significant token unlocks that normally exert selling pressure, suggesting strong demand absorption.  However, such rapid gains often come with high volatility and pullbacks, and long-term sustainability will depend on adoption, network development, and whether fundamental use-cases continue to attract real capital.
