web3: RENDER repeatedly tests $1.30, OTOY updates payment integration

RENDER's price returned to around $1.30 in 2026, a level that has repeatedly drawn attention from the market. Meanwhile, updates from ecosystem partner OTOY Studio have continued to expand the use of RENDER in AI creative applications.

OTOY Studio integrates RENDER payments

On July 27, RENDER Network announced that ecosystem partner OTOY has merged Canvas and OTOY Studio into a single platform. The new version combines image, video, audio, 3D, and world generation models within one workflow.

A more direct change is that RENDER can now be used as a payment method. Users can access over 30 models in OTOY Studio, including GPT Image 2, Nano Banana, Bytedance Seed3D, and Kling, and pay with RENDER instead of bank cards.

Seedance 2.5 is now live

RENDER Network also mentioned that the August 8 update has integrated Seedance 2.5 into OTOY Studio for professional AI video generation. For project teams, this means RENDER's use as a payment option in creative tools continues to grow.

Price remains suppressed by the 200-day average

In terms of price action, RENDER briefly rose to $2.72 earlier this year but has consistently failed to break above the $1.78 zone of the 200-day EMA. The rebound at the end of May only briefly reclaimed this level before momentum faded.

Currently, $1.30 remains a repeatedly tested support level, while the 200-day EMA around $1.78 is still a more prominent resistance area.
