Curve's CRV Trades Near $0.35 With Moving Averages Compressed After LlamaLend V2 Expansion
Blockchain.News reports CRV flat near $0.35 on September 26 with its 7-day, 20-day and EMA-12/26 averages compressed, while Curve expanded LlamaLend V2 collateral options.
Why it matters
A compressed moving-average cluster in a single DeFi governance token is a technical condition, not news of a change in Curve's business, and the price levels attached to it are one outlet's forecast rather than a disclosed plan. The LlamaLend V2 collateral expansion is a real product change that alters what the LLAMMA soft liquidation system can accept, which bears on how liquidations clear on Curve. With a single source, the significance for the wider DeFi market cannot be pinned down.

What happened
Curve's CRV traded around $0.35 on the morning of September 26, 2026, and Blockchain.News reported that its 7-day, 20-day and EMA-12/26 moving averages had compressed into a narrow band near the current price. The outlet framed that compression as a coiled setup and attached bull and bear levels of $0.42 and $0.30, describing those as its own analysis rather than a reported event. Bitcoin drifting back toward $84,000 as the 30-year Treasury yield neared 5.44%, its highest since 2004, and the 10-year passed 5.13%, pushed ETH down 2% and XRP down 4%, while CRV held comparatively steady on the outlet's account. Blockchain.News also said it continues to track a broader DeFi recovery thesis as intact even without price confirmation, and noted that Curve Finance extended LlamaLend V2 in 2026 so the LLAMMA soft liquidation system can take LP tokens and yield-bearing assets as collateral. Only that one outlet reports all of this, so no part of the setup, the resilience or the product change has independent confirmation here.
