Since the ICO issuance price of $0.15 in 2017 up to now, a certain leading exchange platform token has experienced several distinct market cycles. This journey is worth reviewing.

In the initial year, the token dipped as low as $0.096. During the subsequent bear market from 2018 to 2020, it fluctuated repeatedly between $15 and $20, testing investors' patience. It wasn't until 2021, with the expansion of a mainstream blockchain ecosystem and the hot trading of exchange IEOs, that the token price soared to a high of $686, providing a substantial return for holders.

Then came the downtrend in 2022-2023. The market bottomed out again, touching around $200. But this adjustment didn't last long—by October 2025, it broke through its previous highs, reaching a new peak of $1,370.55. Now, in mid-January 2026, the price fluctuates around $950, mainly trading within the $900-$960 range.

Behind this decade of price evolution lies the process of the entire ecosystem from zero to one and then to scale. From initial skepticism to widespread application, every surge and pullback in the token's price tells a story of the market's reassessment of its value.

So the question is—looking ten years ahead, where will this token go? Based on historical cycles, ecosystem development, and market maturity, everyone can start contemplating their own answer.
