Will The Asset Rally?
AVAX has been one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies of the last year, rallying by 182.6% since October 2023. The asset is also up by 4.4% in the 14-day charts and 3% over the previous week. Despite the rally, the asset has struggled to gain momentum off late, dipping by 2.2% in the daily charts and 5.3% over the last week.
According to CoinCodex analysts, AVAX could rally over the next few days. The platform anticipates the asset to surge to $56.79 on Oct. 31. Hitting $56.79 from current prices will rally about 104.7%. The platform does not expect the asset’s price to hold, predicting a correction to $35.69 on Nov. 18, 2024.
