Stacks struggles to stand on level ground as it continues to fall despite the market\u2019s attempt to rebound in the short term. According to CoinGecko, STX bled 15% since last week with the token attempting to reverse the downward momentum with a nearly 4% uptick in the past 24 hours.<\/p>\n
Stacks has been teasing the community, creating hype for the upcoming Nakamoto Upgrade with their \u201821 Days of Nakamoto\u2019 event. The event, which commenced back on the 28th of August, started September with a whole suite of surprises for investors and community members.<\/p>\n
On a recent X post, Megapont was revealed to be Stacks\u2019s September 3 surprise for the celebration of the upcoming mainnet release of the Nakamoto upgrade. Megapont is an NFT project, launched and operates primarily on the Stacks blockchain.<\/p>\n
\nLet\u2019s celebrate a mega upgrade for Stacks! \ud83e\udde1<\/p>\n
And who better to celebrate with than something truly mega…<\/p>\n
Welcome back, @MegapontNFT<\/a>!

The project released Nakapack<\/a>, a 5,000-strong NFT collection to be given out to the Stacks community. Users on the platform can mint the NFTs without a fee, but they need to be whitelisted for this to happen. Despite 95% of circulated NFTs now being deemed worthless by a recent report<\/a>, Megapont\u2019s dedication to its community might spark interest in NFTs within the Bitcoin L2 ecosystem.<\/p>\n

STXCUSD trading at $1.51 on the 24-hour chart: TradingView.com<\/a><\/pre>\nAnother development that will support Stacks in the long term is the second cohort of grants for community-voted programs on-chain. On the thread, seven programs were featured each granted $50,000 to aid their development process. In total, over 31 programs have been given financial assistance.<\/p>\n
$1.3-$1.6 Chokes STX\u2019s Upside Potential<\/h2>\n
As of writing, STX is held tightly by the $1.3-$1.6 trading range, hampering the token\u2019s upside potential shortly. This leaves the bulls in an interesting position which has the opportunity to break through the $1.7 price ceiling.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
STX\u2019s relative strength index (RSI) suggests that the token will attempt to stabilize in its current trading range which gives the bulls a much-needed platform to jump out from. However, its relatively stable level reveals that the bears still have some strength, enough to cancel the bullish momentum that\u2019s currently forming.<\/p>\n
