Avalanche patners with Citibank

  • Avalanche co-founder and CEO Emin Gün Sirer confirms linkup with the Trump administration.
  • Many ongoing speculations regarding AVAX and growth potentials.

Emin Gün Sirer, the CEO of Ava Labs, has revealed that his team is having ongoing discussions with the upcoming US administration led by Donald Trump. This disclosure has sparked heightened debate within the crypto market, with anticipations of a bullish rally for AVAX, Ava Labs’ native token.

Avalanche In Talks With Upcoming US Administration 

Gün Sirer confirmed in an X post on Monday that Avalanche is currently in talks with the new Trump administration. 

The CEO gave the statements while addressing concerns in the crypto market. 

“Yes, of course we are. You will not see us parade our political connections on social media. You’ll just suddenly see results in total Avalanche fashion. Plan accordingly,” the CEO noted when asked about the subject.

The CEO’s confirmation highlights the startup’s attempt to implement a groundbreaking solution in response to Donald Trump’s victory. Gün Sirer’s statement has prompted a market frenzy over AVAX’s future price trajectory. 

Aligning with the CEO’s reveal, AVAX soared by 7.2% over the past day, setting the price at $47.08. AVAX’s 24-hour low and high price stood at $43.91 and $48.98, respectively. 

The 24-hour trading volume increased by over 215% to $2.13 billion. The surge in the trading volume also coincides with the recent launch of the Avalanche9000 network upgrade, per a CNF report.

With Trump set to resume his role next year, market enthusiasts are extensively eyeing the coin for further gains. 

Analysts expect AVAX to hit $50 soon, with a long-term target of $130 based on historical market cycles. As CNF mentioned earlier, AVAX shows bullish momentum toward the $100 level. However, the digital currency faces a crucial resistance at $48. AVAX’s ability to break out of this resistance will determine its next big movement. 

Additionally, the Stochastic Oscillator indicates that the market is overbought, implying that short-term declines may occur before the upward advance continues. Nevertheless, the coin’s robust support levels, expanding utility, and growing network activity indicate a bright future.

Avalanche’s Innovative Proposition

Avalanche is a scalable blockchain technology with applications ranging from Decentralized Finance (DeFi) to enterprise solutions. Avalanche is built with three interoperable blockchains to maximize flexibility and efficiency.

The expansion of Avalanche’s ecosystem is critical to its success. The recent surge in AVAX coincides with the Avalanche Foundation’s purchase of about two million tokens from Terraform Labs. 

These tokens were excluded from Terra’s bankruptcy proceedings and allocated for grants, events, and ecosystem initiatives. 

Avalanche has also demonstrated its commitment to real-world adoption by partnering with BlackRock, the leading asset manager. 

Moreover, rising speculations surround the potential approval of an AVAX Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). This adds to the enthusiasm surrounding the protocol. With Avalanche now in talks with the upcoming US pro-crypto administration, many think an AVAX ETF launch will likely go live soon.
