The competition among DEX platforms may have cooled down, but Avantis is showing impressive signs of breakout.
In the past 24 hours, the Avantis token (AVNT) surged over 22%, bringing the weekly cumulative increase to 62% — a figure that has caught the market’s attention. This strong rally clearly reflects growing interest from capital flows toward Avantis, despite the overall market environment becoming less lively.
Contrary to the bullish momentum of AVNT, some other Perp DEXs like AsterDEX (ASTER) are struggling in terms of price, indicating an increasing divergence within the group of emerging DEX projects.
Avantis Reverses Market Structure to an Uptrend
On the technical chart, Avantis has officially broken a downtrend structure that lasted over a month. The correction for AVNT started immediately after October 24, about two weeks after the widespread liquidation wave across the entire cryptocurrency market.
The recovery momentum was reinforced when AVNT broke above the downtrend resistance line and also surpassed the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) — an important technical signal indicating a trend reversal. This development aligns with the bullish divergence signal from the RSI indicator, which is now approaching the 68 level.

Since the breakout on December 19, AVNT has continuously set higher highs and higher lows, reflecting increasing dominance of the bulls. Notably, this altcoin rebounded from the $0.32 level on Christmas Day, maintaining a firm position above the 50 SMA.
However, AVNT’s upward momentum is temporarily stalling as it approaches a minor resistance zone around $0.40 — an area that previously served as a key accumulation zone about a month ago.
If AVNT successfully breaks through the $0.40 threshold, it could open up new growth potential, targeting the $0.60 zone or higher. Conversely, if the price weakens and breaks below the moving average, the current uptrend is likely to be invalidated.
In addition to the technical breakout momentum, network activity indicators are also playing a crucial role, helping to reinforce AVNT’s short-term bullish outlook.

Bitcoin is hovering around the $700,000 level; if oil prices fall below $100 or push toward $80,000
Bitcoin has recently been trading in a high-level range. The price rebounded from $67,000 to $70,900, driven by a U.S.-Iran ceasefire agreement. Market analysis suggests that weakness in oil prices—or easing inflation pressure—may support Bitcoin’s upside. If it breaks above $72,500, it could trigger short liquidations and push the price up to $80,000. However, instability in the Middle East and a rebound in oil prices could act as a drag. Volatility in the energy market will be a key factor influencing Bitcoin’s direction.

Glassnode: Is the Bitcoin rebound just a dead cat bounce? Where is the key pressure level?
Glassnode reports that although the Bitcoin price rebounded to $72k due to a U.S.-Iran ceasefire, the market structure is still in a bear market. In the short term, the downside may be limited, but the $78k level faces pressure overhead. ETF capital inflows have ticked up slightly, but they have not yet fully returned; trading activity in derivatives remains sluggish, indicating insufficient market confidence.

Why is Bitcoin down today? The Iran–Israel ceasefire is on the verge of collapse, and the Strait of Hormuz shuts down again
Bitcoin has recently been trading below $72,000 and faces risks from the failure of the U.S.-Iran ceasefire talks and the Strait of Hormuz closing again, which has weighed on market sentiment. At the same time, Federal Reserve meeting minutes show that the likelihood of further rate hikes is rising, further affecting the valuation of risk assets.
