Algorand Could Break Out in October – Here’s What’s Driving the Momentum
If you’ve been watching Algorand (ALGO), October might be the month to keep an eye on. Why? Two major catalysts are aligning: stablecoin liquidity and leadership upgrades. Here’s a breakdown of why traders and investors could get excited.
Stablecoin Bridge to Boost Liquidity
The Algorand Foundation just partnered with cross-chain protocol Allbridge to launch a dedicated stablecoin bridge. The rollout is scheduled for Q4 2025, and it’s designed to make moving stablecoins like USDC directly into Algorand faster and more efficient.

What does this mean in plain English? Liquidity will improve, and more applications on Algorand can tap into stablecoins for payments, DeFi products, and tokenized real-world assets.
How Allbridge Integration Helps Algorand Users
Allbridge already supports 20+ networks and provides developer-friendly APIs for seamless cross-chain transfers. It’s also part of Circle’s USDC Alliance Program, further boosting Algorand’s access to the world’s most popular stablecoin.
This is big news because it strengthens Algorand’s ecosystem, making it easier for developers and users to interact with assets across multiple blockchains.
New CTO Brings Fresh Vision
Just a day after the bridge announcement, Algorand appointed Nikolaos Bougalis, former Ripple engineering lead, as its new CTO. Bougalis is tasked with driving the 2025 roadmap with a focus on decentralization, security, and scalability.
Leadership and technology upgrades like this often translate into investor confidence—and potentially higher token activity.
Current Market Snapshot
- ALGO price: ~$0.21 (+0.1% past 24h)
- Daily volume: ~$100M
- Stablecoins on the network: ~$47.5M (USDC ≈ 95%)
- DEX daily volume: ~$530K
- Active addresses (24h): ~38,000
For Allbridge, the integration further cements its cross-chain footprint: 1.15M transfers across 831,120 wallets, with total value locked at ~$24.68M.
According to Algorand’s business chief Min Wei, stablecoins are “fundamental to bridging the gap between TradFi and DeFi.” And Allbridge co-founder Andriy Velykyy says the expansion will “open a new destination for USDC swaps and cross-chain transfers.”

- Wave 3 target: $0.83
- Wave 4 target: $0.48
- Wave 5 target: $2.06
From a chart perspective:
- ALGO bounced off September lows, holding above key support.
- Higher lows on the 4-hour chart indicate steady accumulation.
- Resistance sits between $0.31–$0.33, where volume is clustering. Breaking this could trigger a push toward $0.83.
- Short-term moving averages are turning upward, and RSI is neutral, leaving room for upside.
The broader Elliott Wave pattern points to a longer-term climb, potentially reaching $2.06 if momentum holds. The combination of stablecoin liquidity, Allbridge integration, and new CTO leadership could support this bullish trend.
Bottom Line
ALGO traders should watch support levels and resistance zones closely. A breakout could validate wave targets and set the stage for an altseason rally. Volatility is still a factor, but current developments suggest momentum is building in Algorand’s favor.
