RARE Crypto Jumps By 35%
At spot rates, is up a decent 35% in the past month and mostly stable, losing just 4% in the last year. RARE is now among the best cryptos to buy, especially if bulls push on.
As expected, the leg up was an uptick in trading volume, which rose nearly 20X from August 3. This points to high trading activity across major exchanges. Market data shows that most trading occurred on Pionex, Binance, and MEXC.
From the daily chart, the explosion of August 4 pushed RARE towards July highs. Most importantly, because of yesterday’s gains, the token reversed losses of July 28 when the protocol was hacked. From July 28 till the end of last week, RARE slid by nearly 25% before steadying and pushing higher on August 4.
Technically, buyers of late Q2 2025 are back in control, and a close above July 2025 highs of around $0.07 will be critical for RARE. If buyers succeed, RARE could easily double to March 2025 highs of $0.015 before retesting 2024 highs of $0.21.
On X, sentiment around the governance token, RARE, is overwhelmingly positive. One user posted that RARE could soar to $2.1, and the token is on the cusp of a 30X surge; easily outperforming some of the top Solana meme coins. Bullish as this may be, it may take months before RARE retests this level.
$RARE (SuperRare)'s target at the $2.12938 level goes unchanged due to a holding 'Price Breakout'.
We could see an over 3,000% uphill run to reach it take place… https://t.co/HEL1P806qb pic.twitter.com/f0oARcfCuW

Post-Hack Recovery For RARE Crypto: SuperRare Staking Campaign Bulls Price
On July 28, its RareStakingV1 contract was hacked in an exploit that saw users lose $731,000 worth of RARE tokens.
According to Cyvers, the SuperRare hack was due to a critical flaw in its authorization logic, allowing unauthorized addresses to modify the Merkle root. In this way, it was possible to alter the data structure that automatically determines user staking balances.
ALERT
The attacker’s address, funded via @TornadoCash approximately 186 days ago, executed the exploit and gained 731K worth of $RARE.

After this hack, up to 61 wallets were impacted. Stolen funds were funneled through Tornado Cah, obscuring their trail.
Despite the hack and the possible reputational damage, SuperRare responded swiftly and, most importantly, decisively. The staking contract vulnerability was patched, and impacted users were made whole without requiring action.
Moreover, SuperRare, which said the flaw slipped through audits, overhauled its security protocols. Under their new measures, all post-audit changes will trigger a re-audit. Also, they are expanding test coverage and formal verification to prevent future vulnerabilities.
1/ We’ve deployed a fix to the $RARE staking contract and fully restored its funds.
No other funds or smart contracts were affected during this exploit.
Huge thanks to the community for your understanding and support. https://t.co/0A5VYt2mUd
