Hedera HBAR is currently trading at $0.09119 on Wednesday, February 4, 2026 marking a 1.03% surge. According to CoinMarketCap data, 24-hour trading volume surged 53% to $194.3 million.
Over the past week, HBAR has fallen 14.36%, mirroring broader crypto market caution as investors weigh macroeconomic uncertainty and regulatory developments.
In an X post, Crypto analyst Ari Zaim noted that HBAR is testing the lower boundary of a long-term descending channel on the three-day timeframe, a structure that has governed price action since an earlier impulsive rally.
The channel has consistently produced lower highs and lower lows, with repeated rejection near resistance confirming sustained selling pressure over time.
Despite this, recent price behavior suggests a potential shift in market dynamics. Candlestick formations near the channel’s lower boundary have become smaller and more compressed, a pattern often associated with seller exhaustion rather than aggressive continuation.
Zaim also highlighted early bullish divergence, indicating that downside momentum may be weakening even as price revisits support.
From a technical perspective, a confirmed bounce could open upside targets near $0.103, $0.125, and $0.155, though analysts stress these levels remain conditional on a breakout above the descending trendline. Failure to reclaim resistance would signal that the broader corrective structure remains intact.
Alongside technical developments, Hedera received a fundamental boost after McLaren Racing announced a multi-year partnership with the Hedera Foundation, positioning Hedera as an Official Partner of the McLaren Mastercard Formula 1 Team and the Arrow McLaren IndyCar Team.
The collaboration aims to connect real-world motorsport with Web3 infrastructure, beginning with a digital collectibles program built on the Hedera network.
Fans will be able to claim officially licensed digital collectibles during Formula 1 Grand Prix weekends, with additional experiences planned for the 2026 Arrow McLaren IndyCar season.
Hedera branding will feature across McLaren cars, driver race suits, and team kits, expanding the network’s visibility through one of the world’s most recognized motorsport platforms.
For the Hedera ecosystem, the partnership reinforces its positioning as an enterprise-focused, Layer-1 blockchain designed for secure and compliant real-world applications.
