More Support From ETH Whales
The whale buying spree has effectively pushed the price of SAND up on the broader market market. Looking at the charts, the token is up almost in the past two weeks. This in turn made the token test the $0.7540 price resistance level.
On top of the whale buying spree, the release of Game Maker 0.8 certainly has an effect on the token. According to the development team’s , this upgrade brought features that were requested by the community in the past.

New multiplayer gameplay features, new lighting and post-processing effects, and the addition of audio and video streaming on the platform will certainly bring more attention to the platform and the GameFi space. With noticing the power of Web3 development, platforms like The Sandbox will continue to rise in popularity.
Is SAND Standing On Solid Ground?
As the time of writing, the token is changing hands at $0.7044. With crucial support at $0.5015, this may be enough for SAND to sustain higher highs and higher lows. ETH whales should be careful, however, as a break below the $0.6327 support would delay a possible break above $0.7540.
Bitcoin’s current strong momentum is being reflected by the token in the short to medium term as well. This means that if ever BTC – the world’s biggest crypto asset in terms of market cap – continues its climb to breach the $21,500 resistance, SAND would see gains above $0.8626 which would wipe the losses that occurred when crypto exchange FTX collapsed.
A breakthrough like this would trigger a bigger rally. However, if the rally is met with resistance, investors and traders should consolidate above $0.6327 to support further bullish movement in the coming days and weeks.
Improvements in the macroeconomic situation should also help SAND’s price to secure crucial consolidation levels. With seemingly going down, the ecosystem and SAND would benefit from its high correlation with Bitcoin and Ethereum.
