January 26 News, the decentralized derivatives protocol Avantis token AVNT surged against the market trend, with a daily increase of over 27%, significantly outperforming peers HYPE and ASTER. Capital and activity are gradually flowing back into some DEX tokens, but AVNT’s rise is encountering key technical and structural resistance.
On-chain data shows a clear rebound in AVNT network activity. The average trading volume has returned to the high levels seen in late December 2025, with daily transaction counts exceeding 1,400. Over the past five days, large addresses have continuously accumulated this asset, driving increased participation in the Asian market. Meanwhile, the user base of the Avantis ecosystem has exceeded 65,000, with total value locked surpassing $104 million, indicating genuine funds are entering its derivatives system. The protocol holds approximately 75% of the derivatives market on the Base chain and has integrated with over 25 mainstream wallets, enhancing accessibility and liquidity depth.
Price movements are resonating with on-chain data. AVNT has broken above the previously sustained one-month descending wedge pattern, with MACD momentum continuing to expand, and volatility indicators remaining in low ranges, suggesting the trend still has room to extend. However, the short-term price is approaching the critical $0.36 level, which is both the opening price of the year and a previous area of heavy trading, now turning into a clear resistance zone.
If buying pressure cannot sustain growth, AVNT may oscillate within this range, awaiting new capital inflows. The short-term structure leans bullish, but on a monthly scale, the trend has not fully reversed. For investors focusing on the DEX sector and AVNT price movements, the key will be whether it can break through and hold above $0.36 with increased volume; otherwise, this rally is more likely to enter a consolidation phase.

Bitcoin's epic sell-off review: $3.2 billion in actual losses set a record, and bottoming signals are emerging
Last week, the cryptocurrency market experienced intense volatility, with Bitcoin plummeting from around $70,000 to $60,000 in a short period, triggering the largest "realized loss" event in history. On-chain analysis platform Glassnode shows that the adjusted realized losses reached as high as $3.2 billion, setting a new record for the Bitcoin network. This metric measures the USD value of Bitcoin sold below cost and excludes the impact of transfers within the same entity, thus providing a more accurate reflection of genuine selling pressure.
This figure even exceeds the approximately $2.7 billion loss during the 2022 LUNA collapse, indicating that the current downward sentiment shock has surpassed the darkest phase previously experienced. Data platform Checkonchain pointed out that this market movement exhibits typical "capitulation sell-off" characteristics: rapid decline, large transaction volumes, mainly driven by holders with the weakest conviction being forced to liquidate.

Bitcoin drops below $66,000, Ethereum hits $1,900, non-farm payroll data causes 150,000 traders to liquidate with $470 million in losses
U.S. non-farm payrolls added 130,000 jobs in January, far exceeding expectations, with the unemployment rate dropping to 4.3%. This result significantly dampened market expectations for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates, leading to sharp fluctuations in the prices of Bitcoin and Ethereum. Bitcoin plummeted over $3,000 in a single night, and Ethereum fell below $2,000. Although it has a short-term impact on the market, the substantial downward revision of the 2025 employment data may suggest underlying economic weakness, and investors should pay attention to future economic trends.
