The dash to <a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/fantom\/buy\/\">buy Fantom<\/a> pushed the token\u2019s price above $0.215.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Fantom price jumps 17% as market cap hits $500 million<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Data on CoinGecko shows Fantom price surged from a low of $0.178 on Tuesday morning, hitting intraday highs of $0.219 and a daily volume of more than $200 million. The cryptocurrency\u2019s market cap rose above $500 million and was around $546 million as at 8:15 am ET.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/fantom\/projects\/\">Fantom projects<\/a> such as Scream (CREAM) and Geist Finance (GEIST) were also trading higher.<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Why did Fantom price surge?<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The crypto market remains largely bearish, with recent events around the collapse of FTX and other platforms contributing to the jitters that have seen major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) hover near multi-month lows.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">As for Fantom, although the latest upside has helped cut the DeFi token\u2019s losses over the past 30 days to under 5%, a look at the charts shows the price of Fantom remains more than 93% down on its all-time high of $3.46 reached in late October 2021.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">But what pushed the FTM price to its highest level since early November?<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The answer is in a wave of fresh optimism sweeping through the Fantom ecosystem after a dose of great news regarding the financial state of the crypto company. In short, crypto developer Andre Cronje <a href=\"https:\/\/andrecronje.medium.com\/fantom-an-inside-financial-peak-at-being-a-crypto-company-323d29fb5e81\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">shared details<\/a> that basically show Fantom is financially healthy. \u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Fantom is \u2018cash flow positive\u2019<\/h2>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">According to Cronje, Fantom\u2019s treasury currently holds more than 450 million FTM, over $100 million in stablecoins, and more than $100 million in crypto assets. The DeFi platform also holds $50 million in non-crypto assets, giving the company approximately 30 years of runway even with a salary burn rate of $7 million a year.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">And notably, Fantom won\u2019t have to sell FTM to stay in the green financially for the next several years. With more than $10 million earned annually from validators, delegators, various DeFi strategies and network fees, Fantom is \u201ccash flow positive\u201d and scaling, Cronje noted.<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">On lessons learnt as multiple crypto projects file for bankruptcy, he wrote:<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">\u201c<em>If your entire revenue model is selling your token, you are doing a disservice to yourself, your blockchain, and your supporters<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">Cronje also revealed that Fantom had refused to part with millions of dollars in return for listings, partnerships and deployment on an NFT marketplace.<\/p>\n<div class=\"post-meta\">\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Share this article<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Categories<\/h6>\n<hr class=\"mb-6\"\/>\n<h6 class=\"text-3xl  mb-4  text-green-300\">Tags<\/h6>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/coinjournal.net\/news\/ftm-price-soars-amid-news-on-fantoms-financial-health\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : CoinJournal: Latest Bitcoin, Ethereum &amp; Crypto News ) Fantom price soared by more than 17% early Tuesday as the DeFi platform\u2019s market cap hit $500 million.
