What’s Behind the Virtuals Protocol Price Rally?
The recent rally in Virtuals Protocol appears to be driven by the project’s integration of Coinbase’s x402 protocol into its ecosystem.
The x402 protocol is an open payment standard developed by crypto exchange Coinbase , as it seeks the OCC Federal charter.
It allows AI agents and services to execute instant, on-chain stablecoin payments directly over HTTP, thereby eliminating the need for user accounts, subscriptions, or complex authentication.
Following the integration, weekly agent-to-agent transactions on the Virtuals network surged sharply, rising from under 5,000 to over 25,000 in the week beginning October 19. This signals a rapid adoption of the new capability.

In addition to the x402 integration, the Virtuals ecosystem has seen accelerating growth across multiple fronts, including autonomous trading tools, robotics applications, and DeFi integrations.
Moreover, broader ecosystem developments such as Coinbase support and expanded cross-chain functionality are further strengthening network activity and investor confidence.
Will the VIRTUAL Price Action Continue
The VIRTUAL price has seen a strong momentum following the breakout past $1.0, and rallying all the way to the highs of $1.63 earlier today.
Now, it is facing some pullback and is currently trading at $1.41 levels, with a market cap of $945 million as of press time. This latest rally comes along with the broader crypto market upside today.
VIRTUAL is expected to find key support in the $1.15-$1.25 range. A successful rebound from this zone could confirm a trend reversal, paving the way for potential upside targets at the $1.70 and $2.10 Fibonacci resistance levels.
