Key Takeaways
After peaking at $65 on March 18, 2024, AVAX experienced a significant decline, with the crypto’s price collapsing by more than half over the following five months.
However, the crypto rallied later in the year thanks to the launch of the Avalanche9000 upgrade , which made it cheaper to build on Avalanche. On Jan. 28, 2025, AVAX was worth about $34.05, up over the last three months but down week-on-week, month-on-month, and year-on-year.
Let’s examine our price predictions for Avalanche, made on Jan. 28, 2025. We will also examine the AVAX price history and discuss what Avalanche is and what it does.
Let’s take a look at CCN’s Avalanche price predictions, made on Jan. 28, 2025. We do have to remind you that while we take the utmost care with our price forecasts, price predictions, especially for something as potentially volatile as crypto, can often be wrong.
Minimum Avalanche Price Prediction | Average Avalanche Price Prediction | Maximum Avalanche Price Prediction | |
---|---|---|---|
2025 | $50 | $80 | $110 |
2026 | $65 | $100 | $150 |
2030 | $150 | $250 | $350 |
By 2025, AVAX is expected to benefit from the ongoing adoption of its blockchain, driven by its scalability and efficiency, potentially sustaining a bullish trajectory. If broader market conditions remain subdued, the price could reach a minimum of $50. At the same time, strong development activity and network growth could push it toward an average of $80 or a maximum of $110.
In 2026, AVAX’s ecosystem will likely mature further, with increased DeFi and institutional use cases fueling demand for its native token. With growing adoption, the price could remain at a minimum of $65, with an average projection of $100, and peak at $150 if market sentiment remains strongly positive.
By 2030, AVAX may emerge as one of the leading blockchain platforms, leveraging its technological edge to capture significant market share in decentralized finance and enterprise solutions. A minimum price of $150 reflects conservative growth, while an average of $250 and a maximum of $350 assume continued innovation, adoption, and favorable macroeconomic conditions supporting the crypto market.
On the daily chart, AVAX appears to have completed wave four of a larger impulsive structure within a descending wedge. Support around $33, near the wedge’s lower boundary and the 0.382 Fibonacci level, signals a potential reversal zone.
Previous price action saw AVAX complete a five-wave cycle to $65 before entering an ABC correction. The current wedge structure suggests a bullish setup with neutral momentum on the RSI. A breakout above $41 could confirm wave five, targeting $47 and $55.
AVAX is likely forming a five-wave impulsive move off its $33 low. A wedge breakout above$37 would confirm Wave One, with Wave Three targeting $44, the next resistance zone. After a brief pullback wave four holding above $40, the final wave could aim for $55, aligning with the 0.786 Fibonacci retracement. Sustained momentum might even extend gains to $65.
Failure to hold $34 weakens the bullish case, with a break below $29 invalidating the structure. However, staying above key supports keeps the path toward $50 intact, completing this bullish wave cycle. The Avalanche price prediction for the next 24 hours depends on it staying above $34.
The Average True Range (ATR) measures market volatility by averaging the largest of three values: the current high minus the current low, the absolute value of the current high minus the previous close, and the absolute value of the current low minus the previous close over a period, typically 14 days. A rising ATR indicates increasing volatility, while a falling ATR indicates decreasing volatility.
On Jan. 28, 2025, Avalanche’s ATR was 2.86, a sign of relatively low volatility.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is a momentum indicator traders use to determine whether an asset is overbought or oversold. Movements above 70 and below 30 show over and undervaluation, respectively. Movements above and below the 50 line also indicate if the trend is bullish or bearish.
On Jan. 28, 2025, Avalanche’s RSI was 39, a sign of a bearish trend.
The Market Cap to Total Value Locked (TVL) ratio measures the valuation of a decentralized finance (DeFi) project by comparing its market capitalization to the total value of assets locked in its smart contracts.
This ratio shows the project’s utilization and links the platform’s health to locked asset value.
A ratio above 1.0 indicates overvaluation because the market cap exceeds the value of assets used in the platform. A ratio below 1.0 indicates undervaluation because the market cap is lower than the value of locked assets.
On Jan. 28, 2025, the Avalanche TVL ratio was 9.92, indicating overvaluation.
The CCN Strength Index combines an array of advanced market signals to measure the strength of individual cryptocurrencies over the last 30 days.
Every day, it assigns a strength score, ranging from 0 to 100, to the top 500 assets by market capitalization on CoinMarketCap, focusing on both trend direction and the intensity of price movements.
The index dynamically adapts to rapid changes. For example, an asset experiencing a 100% increase within a short timeframe would see a sharp jump in its score to reflect the intensity of the rise.
However, should that asset stabilize at this new price level, the score will gradually taper down and align with the dampened momentum as the movement normalizes. The same principle applies to rapid declines: a sudden drop will spike the score downward, but the score will slowly adjust back up as volatility decreases.
On Jan. 28, 2025, Avalanche scored 31.5 on the CCN Index, suggesting weak momentum.

Avalanche describes itself as a “high-performance, scalable, customizable and secure” blockchain in its technical documentation or whitepaper. It sets out three uses.
Avalanche is a blockchain that is designed to be scalable. In other words, it is meant not to slow down when the network gets busier, thus saving people who use it time and, perhaps more importantly, money.
Like Ethereum (ETH), Avalanche uses smart contracts, computer programs that automatically execute once certain conditions are met.
Its native coin, which goes by the ticker handle AVAX, supports the system.
Avalanche uses a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism. This means that people are selected to verify transactions and blocks added to the blockchain-based on how much AVAX they have.
The system consists of three separate but intertwined blockchains.
The Contract Chain, or C-Chain, helps users work with Ethereum-based decentralized applications (dApps).
The Exchange Chain, or X-Chain, swaps, and trades AVAX and crypto tokens based on Avalanche.
Finally, the Platform Chain, or P-Chain, lets users set up their side chains that link to the Avalanche platform and, perhaps more importantly, create their crypto tokens.
Using three chains means, at least in theory, that the platform is faster. This eliminates the need for layer 2 scaling solutions, platforms that take a transaction off a blockchain, carry it out, and put it back in an attempt to save users time and money.
AVAX helps people secure the system. People can also stake it or set it aside in return for rewards. People can stake their AVAX to another user, delegating certain responsibilities to them, again in return for rewards paid in AVAX.
AVAX holders can also vote on network changes, buy, sell, and trade on exchanges, and use the coin to pay for transactions on Avalanche. When that happens, the coin is burned or destroyed.
It is hard to say. On one hand, Avalanche is one of the larger blockchain platforms out there, and its performance at a poor time for crypto is encouraging.
Avalanche9000’s launch could also increase interest in the platform.
On the other hand, AVAX has previously underperformed against the market, so it remains to be seen whether it will revert to type.
As ever with crypto, you must do your own research before deciding whether or not to invest in AVAX.
No one can really tell right now. While the Avalanche crypto price predictions are largely positive, price predictions have a well-earned reputation for being wrong. Keep in mind that prices can and do go down and up.
Before you decide whether or not to invest in Avalanche, you will have to do your own research on AVAX and other related coins and tokens such as Cardano (ADA) or Solana (SOL). Either way, you must also ensure you never invest more money than you can afford to lose.

It might do. Our Avalanche price prediction says it could reach three figures this year. Keep in mind that AVAX has traded at more than $100 before, but it has not reached that level since early December 2021.
