  • Avalanche inches closer to a crucial supply zone breakout, targeting the $30 mark.
  • AVAX Open Interest crosses $1 billion, hitting a record high. 
  • Ava Labs partners with WeBlock to design Korean RWA and stablecoin infrastructure.

Avalanche (AVAX) price extends the recovery rally to a fourth consecutive day towards a crucial resistance zone, eyeing a potential breakout run to $30 alongside other layer-1 tokens such as Solana (SOL) and Tron (TRX). Interest remains steady for Avalanche as open interest crosses $1 billion after the announcement that Ava Labs has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with WeBlock to expand Real-World Assets (RWAs) and the stablecoins market in South Korea. 

Ava Labs partners with WeBlock to push tokenization in South Korea

Ava Labs, the team behind Avalanche, signed an MoU agreement with WeBlock to push RWA tokenization and stablecoins in South Korea. The Korean regulation-compliant RWA products will be built on Avalanche’s layer-1 blockchain and integrate Know Your Customer (KYC) and Anti-Money Laundering (AML) features. 

The stabelcoin pilot will be released later this year, while the RWA products are scheduled for H1 2026, the company said.

Avalanche targets a breakout rally to almost $30

AVAX holds a stable rise above $25 at press time on Wednesday, teasing a potential breakout of the supply zone between $25.75 and $26.50, marked as a yellow band on the daily chart shared below.

If the recovery run in this multi-chain token marks a decisive close above the R1 pivot level at $26.59, it could target the $29.78 mark, aligning with the R2 pivot level slightly under the $30.00 milestone. 

Adding to the bullish potential, the 50-day Exponential Moving Average (EMA) crossed above the 200-day EMA, confirming a Golden Cross pattern. This indicates that the short-term recovery has overcome the influence of the prevailing trend, pointing to a bullish reversal. 

Even the momentum indicators on the daily chart indicate increasing buying pressure as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 61, pointing upwards with further room ahead before entering the overbought zone. 

Additionally, the Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator displays green histogram bars on the same chart, indicating a rise in bullish momentum. The MACD line crossing above its signal line on Monday marked the trend reversal in Avalanche.

On the contrary, if AVAX fails to uphold the intraday gains, it could reverse the trend to a local support trendline, formed by connecting the lows of June 22 and August 3 at $25.15.

Bitcoin briefly loses 2025 gains as crypto plunges over the weekend.Bitcoin experienced a sharp decline this weekend, briefly erasing its 2025 gains and dipping below its year-opening value of $93,507. The cryptocurrency fell to a low of $93,029 on Sunday, representing a 25% drop from its all-time high in October. Although it has rebounded slightly to around $94,209, the pressures on the market remain significant. The downturn occurred despite the reopening of the U.S. government on Thursday, which many had hoped would provide essential support for crypto markets. This year initially appeared promising for cryptocurrencies, particularly after the inauguration of President Donald Trump, who has established the most pro-crypto administration thus far. However, ongoing political tensions—including Trump's tariff strategies and the recent government shutdown, lasting a historic 43 days—have contributed to several rapid price pullbacks for Bitcoin throughout the year. Market dynamics are also being influenced by Bitcoin whales—investors holding large amounts of Bitcoin—who have been offloading portions of their assets, consequently stalling price rallies even as positive regulatory developments emerge. Despite these sell-offs, analysts from Glassnode argue that this behavior aligns with typical patterns seen among long-term investors during the concluding stages of bull markets, suggesting it is not indicative of a mass exodus. Notably, Bitcoin is not alone in its struggles, as Ethereum and Solana have also recorded declines of 7.95% and 28.3%, respectively, since the start of the year, while numerous altcoins have faced even steeper losses. Looking ahead, questions linger regarding the viability of the four-year cycle thesis, particularly given the increasing institutional support and regulatory frameworks now in place in the crypto landscape. Matt Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, remains optimistic, suggesting a potential Bitcoin resurgence in 2026 driven by the “debasement trade” thesis and a broader trend toward increased adoption of stablecoins, tokenization, and decentralized finance. Hougan emphasized the soundness of the underlying fundamentals, pointing to a positive outlook for the sector in the longer term.
