This accumulation comes as ENA trades near $0.17 with a market cap of $1.42 billion.
Analyst Crypto Patel said ENA is sitting in a strong accumulation region of $0.18-$0.20.
He noted this same price range acted as the launch point for a move of more than 500% in December 2024.
Price action shows ENA making lower highs under a descending trendline. At the same time, buyers continue to defend the $0.18 area.
According to Patel, repeated failures by sellers to break support result in exhaustion. He said this setup often appears when large buyers build positions quietly.
If the altcoin holds above $0.18, the analyst said the token could surge to $1.50, which means a 700% surge from current levels.

However, a daily close below $0.18 would break this setup and shift control back to sellers.
ENA has gained renewed investor interest after recent bullish comments from BitMEX co-founder Arthur Hayes.
Last week, Hayes predicted that ENA could reach $1 amid growing interest in the DeFi sector.

He has stated that capital is moving back into higher quality DeFi assets and named ENA as one of his focus positions.
Despite this, ENA continues to struggle. The token is down about 80% since Sept. 2025 and has lost over $4 billion in market cap.
It reached an all time high of $1.52 in April 2024 and now trades about 88% below that level.
The decline is also due to large and frequent token unlocks, which significantly increased supply.
While Ethena’s USDe product gained users, protocol revenue has not yet matched ENA’s full valuation.
To counter supply pressure, Ethena Labs has used buyback programs. Last year, the team began repurchasing ENA from the market to reduce supply and support price levels.
