$RIVER The coin became one of the most discussed in January 2026.
Listings and news.
The situation is very dynamic, $RIVER actively capturing platforms:
OKX: On January 9, launched trading of perpetual futures RIVER/USDT. This provided a strong influx of liquidity.
Binance: There is currently no direct listing on spot (as of January 27), but futures RIVER/USDT are already trading with huge volumes (up to $1.5 billion per day!).
Other platforms: January 20 $
RIVER was listed on the Korean Coinone (pair with won), and on January 22 — on the Lighter platform with 3x leverage.
Investments: The project received strong support. It was invested in by Arthur Hayes (Maelstrom Fund), Justin Sun ($8 million from TRON DAO) and Spartan Group. This is 'heavy artillery' that usually does not invest in empty shells.
Signals: Pump or Dump?
Arguments for PUMP (Bullish):
Short squeeze: On exchanges (MEXC, Binance) there are very high negative funding rates. This means there are too many short sellers, and large players find it profitable to 'knock' them out with a sharp price spike.
Technical: The price showed insane growth in January — from $7 to almost $72. There is a correction now, and many analysts see support around $38–$44.
Arguments for DUMP (Bearish):
Huge unlocks: In the next 30 days, about $249 million in tokens $RIVER will flood the market (this is 28% of the turnover!). This is colossal pressure on the price.
Manipulations: There is data that one group of people (more than 2400 wallets) controls almost half of the circulating coins. This is a classic risk that 'whales' can crash the price at any moment, taking profits.
Everyone, have a good day! And successful trades!
