Avalanche’s price is down 5% in the past 24 hours, trading lower as most cryptocurrencies shed gains. With analysts pointing to continued pressure on Bitcoin as gold rallies, it appears AVAX could fall sharply below $11. However, bullish calls on Avalanche highlight real-world asset (RWA) tokenization and spot ETF approvals as potential catalysts. Network users have also exploded, but can these milestones prove crucial for AVAX price? The token traded around $11.54 at the time of writing on Thursday. Avalanche active users surge amid RWA milestone Notably, interest in Avalanche resurfaces as the network’s daily users have exploded in the past month. On-chain data indicates the number of daily active users on Avalanche’s C-Chain has expanded by more than 2000% year-to-date. This 20x growth now sees daily users hover at 600,000, up from lows of 30,000. Cumulative C-Chain transactions have, in the meantime, surged past the $1 billion mark. Avalanche Foundation 🔺 @AvalancheFDN · Follow The Avalanche Foundation is delighted to see the Avalanche C-Chain surpass 1 billion cumulative transactions.This milestone reflects the infrastructure, builders, and community driving the next stage of growth on Avalanche 🔺 Watch on Twitter View replies 4:04 pm · 29 Jan 2026 138 Reply Copy link Read 9 replies The past week has also been huge for Avalanche in terms of fresh institutional adoption momentum. After welcoming its first US spot exchange-traded fund, AVAX hit another milestone in tokenization, with value issuance on the blockchain surpassing $1.3 billion. The sharp rise from lows of $305 million in mid-2025 comes as institutional adoption accelerates with major moves from players like JP Morgan, Citi, and WisdomTree. Initiatives such as Wyoming’s and Japan’s stablecoin projects that leverage Avalanche’s high-throughput network add to this growth. The on-chain drive now has tokenized real-world assets across credit assets, treasury deals, and stablecoins on Avalanche. According to rwa.xyz, both distributed and represented values are up in the past month, with traction on hand as more companies tap Avalanche to bring real estate, bonds, commodities, and stocks on-chain. Similar trends are expected for Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Solana. Asset manager WisdomTree, for instance, has rolled out support for the full suite of its tokenized funds on Solana. Is Avalanche poised for gains? Like most other altcoins, Avalanche is down significantly since touching fresh highs in 2025. The token traded above $35 in September, but has dropped to near the $10 psychological level. Open interest has dipped, and the futures market suggests an overwhelmingly bearish setup in the short term. If top coins plummet amid a broader risk sell-off, AVAX price may extend the rot to under $10. However, if upward momentum re-emerges, bulls could be unstoppable below $20. Accelerating RWA traction and the recent launch of the first US spot AVAX ETF, the latter buoying inflows, portend this outlook. Spot ETF demand could amplify this, as Grayscale and others eye staking and potentially drawing millions in traditional asset flows not yet priced into AVAX markets. From a technical perspective, the $25-$35 is a notable region for bulls. The post Avalanche price forecast as C-Chain transactions surpass $1B, daily users jump 20x appeared first on Invezz
