Avalanche Price Forecast: Why AVAX Could Rally to $40 Soon

Highlights:

• Avalanche is making higher lows in a bullish channel 
• Uptrend likely to continue if the $35.19 resistance is breached
• A breach of $35.19 resistance could send AVAX to $40 soon

Avalanche (AVAX) has rallied quite strongly in the last 24 hours, outperforming most top 100 cryptocurrencies. In this period, Avalanche has gained by 13.77% to trade at $35.04. At the same time, Avalanche trading volumes have shot up in the last 24 hours. They are up by 113.9% to stand at $2.66 billion. This is an indicator that buyers are coming in strongly and expect Avalanche to go even higher in the short to medium term. The excitement with Avalanche is not without basis. A lot is happening within the Avalanche ecosystem that could trigger a significant price rally for Avalanche going into the future. 

Institutions Forming Avalanche Treasuries

One of the factors driving Avalanche adoption is its growth in institutional cycles. Recently, a Nasdaq-listed company called AgriFORCE has rebranded to Avax One. Following the rebrand, AgriFORCE, the company wants to raise $550 million and buy over $700 million worth of AVAX as part of its Avalanche strategy. This is driving excitement around Avalanche because the demand pressure this move could create around Avalanche could send the price to unprecedented highs in the foreseeable future.

At the same time, the market is excited that Anthony Scaramucci of SkyBridge Capital will be part of the Avax One advisory board. Another top name that is driving excitement around the deal is Matt Zhang of Hivemind Capital. These are names that are well known in institutional circles, and the moves they are making could influence other organizations to create AVAX treasuries as well. The result is that the FOMO building up around Avalanche at the moment could get even stronger going into the future. 

An AVAX ETF Likely Coming Soon

Besides companies like AgriFORCE forming Avalanche treasuries, other institutions are also considering Avalanche ETFs. Grayscale recently made a filing with the SEC that aims to turn its AVAX Trust into an AVAX ETF. This is a big deal because if approved, it could increase the level of legitimacy of AVAX in the eyes of investors.

In a market with thousands of cryptocurrencies and many more coming up daily, an ETF could elevate AVAX above many other altcoins. Besides, with Avalanche ETFs, it would be easier for both institutional and retail money to buy Avalanche. Such is likely to see AVAX potentially rally to new highs in the short to medium term.

Rates In Decline Could Drive More Capital Into AVAX

However, it is not only internal factors that are driving the bullish momentum around Avalanche. There is also the fact that the US recently cut interest rates. There is also growing expectation that another interest rate cut could be coming up in October, or at some point before the end of the year.

The result is that money is likely to flow strongly into risk-on assets for the remainder of the year. With such prospects and the fact that Avalanche fundamentals are getting better, the odds of a price rally are quite strong going into the future. The charts are already painting a potentially bullish picture for Avalanche in the short to medium term.

Technical Analysis – Avalanche Making Higher Lows In A Bullish Channel

Avalanche is currently in a strong bullish channel. It is making higher lows, an indicator that every slight dip in the price is being bought up. Currently, Avalanche is pushing towards the multi-day resistance at $35.19.

If bulls are strong enough to push through the $35.19 resistance, then a rally to $40, or higher, could follow. On the other hand, if bulls fail at the $35.19 resistance, then two scenarios could follow. One is a possible consolidation around the $35.19 resistance. The second is a possible correction to around $28.99, which is a critical short-term support level.
