Retail access expands and institutional interest rises amid persistent selling

Zengo, the eToro-owned MPC wallet, has added support for Avalanche, enabling more than 2 million users across over 180 countries to manage AVAX and related assets directly from their mobile devices without a seed phrase, according to Cryptobriefing. This integration extends AVAX’s retail accessibility and reduces complexity for new adopters, which may lay groundwork for future transactional growth. Japan’s NEC exploring stablecoin payments on Avalanche, as reported by Techbullion, signals early-stage institutional experimentation, while $500 million in capital raised by Avalanche ecosystem builders and a fourfold increase in tokenized Treasuries reflect an expanding infrastructure, according to Team1. Despite these developments, price action has remained under broader selling pressure.

Mixed momentum and neutral signals as support holds above MA-200

On the hourly timeframe, AVAX is trading below the MA-20 at $8.75 and MA-50 at $8.67, with immediate resistance from the Ichimoku Kijun at $8.89. However, the price remains above the daily MA-200 at $8.15, with $8.05 serving as the key support level. Momentum readings are mixed: both MACD and ADX are neutral, Bull/Bear Power stands at -0.02 indicating slight seller dominance, while RSI is also neutral. Both Stoch RSI and CCI are oversold, suggesting potential selling exhaustion but offering no confirmation of reversal.

Downside risk prevails as price consolidation limits breakout chances

In the short term, AVAX is expected to consolidate within a $8.05 to $8.55 band, reflecting typical volatility near session lows. The probability of an upward breakout is very low, with downside risk heavily favored. Any bullish scenario would require a move above the $8.89 resistance, whereas a close below $8.05 might trigger further declines in the coming sessions.

Anton Kharitonov, expert at Traders Union, notes that despite recent high-profile integrations, Avalanche (AVAX) remains under pressure. He sees the technical setup as weak, with price failing to reclaim important resistance and momentum indicators remaining indecisive. Institutional and ecosystem developments are positive but have yet to translate into price strength. "Until AVAX breaks above $8.89, my base case remains defensive and I expect further consolidation or downside."

Earlier, analysts noted that Avalanche remained under persistent downside risk as technical indicators and weak demand signaled seller control. The latest developments add retail access and potential institutional use cases to the narrative, but with price action still under pressure, maintaining $8.05 as support will be crucial for any near-term shift in trend.
