VeChain (VET) is down by 4.5% to $0.0298 this week, notably underperforming the broader crypto market, where Bitcoin (BTC) has slipped just 0.5% to $103,750. Despite the decline, the move appears to be a technical retest of the former resistance at $0.0300, which may now serve as a support level for a renewed push towards the $0.0400 mark. VET remains buoyed by the broader positive market sentiment and by internal developments, particularly the upcoming launch of its new StarGate staking model, which could help draw additional investor interest.
