Avalanche RWAs Explode 58%—What This Means for AVAX Price Action

Avalanche's real-world assets just ripped higher—but will the momentum actually push AVAX beyond its current range?

The 58% surge in RWA activity signals institutional players are finally waking up to on-chain value. Traditional finance might still be sipping coffee in their marble lobbies, but the chain doesn't lie.

Volume spikes like this usually precede major price moves. Not always up, of course—crypto’s favorite party trick is fake breakouts followed by brutal corrections.

AVAX now sits at a critical technical juncture. Break resistance, and we’re talking new momentum. Fail, and it’s just another 'almost' story in an industry full of them.

Remember: in crypto, numbers shout—but price action has the final word. Always does.

Key Takeaways

A look at AVAX’s price action

On the price charts, AVAX climbed by 9.9% in the last 30 days, with the same in a coolling down phase at press time.

With the altcoin’s price now rejecting a break of the support of the SuperTrend, the price could bounce back above $25 – A 5% gain.

In the meantime, a break below could see AVAX drop below $23 on the charts. In fact, the zone has served as the conservative entry point for most traders. Still, the risk of dropping to $21 cannot be overlooked.

Is Futures volume getting overheated?

Finally, a look at the Futures volume revealed a picture of what could be built. The volume, roughly $1.018 billion, has been sharply increasing lately, with the same evidenced by the Bubble Map.

The surge in volume can be seen as further confirmation of the institutional demand and potential whale activity.

The funding rates and Open interest were looking good as per CoinGlass data too.

The OI-weighted funding rate’s reading was at 0.0058% – A slight hike from the day’s open value. However, it was still lower than the reading of the last two days – 0.01%.

This indicated that despite the fall in interest, traders have been slowly returning after the RWAs and stablecoins data release.
