Why RLC is going up

RLC has been on fire since it secured a listing on Coinbase, which is the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the U.S. Coinbase continually expands its crypto offering. On May 6, Coinbase added RLC, Cartesi (CTSI), Mirror Protocol (MIR), and Tellor (TRB).

RLC is benefiting from the so-called "Coinbase effect." Investors bet that listing on the major exchange would give it more exposure and boost its demand. Generally, altcoins soar on a Coinbase listing.

The token’s rapid rise can also be linked to investors hunting for the next cryptocurrency to explode in 2021. Bitcoin has returned 72,000,000  percent for investors since its debut and altcoins like Dogecoin have seen solid returns in a short period.

RLC's price could reach $100.

Community favorite tokens tend to have price milestones that their fans want them to achieve. For Dogecoin, fans have long wanted to see it at $1. For Ethereum’s ether, the community is longing for $10,000. In the case of iExec RLC, $100 has been a long desired price milestone.

At the current price of about $10, it would require RLC to gain 900 percent to reach the $100 milestone. The token has gained 3,300 percent in the past 12 months and 1,300 percent YTD. If it maintains that momentum, it could reach $100 by the end of 2021 or early 2022.
