Injective vs. Render Tokens
Analyst Turns Bullish on Render and Injective
A well-followed analyst has predicted that INJ and RNDR prices could be poised for a bullish breakout in the longer term. Sensei, with over 33k followers on social media, expects that INJ will jump to $100, representing a potential increase of over 340% from the current level. He also anticipates that Render Token will rise to $150, implying a 2,000% surge from its current price. The analyst is also optimistic about other tokens like Oasis Network (ROSE) and Bittensor (TAO), predicting they will rise to $2 and $1,000, respectively.
$ROSE is going to $2-3
$TAO is going to $1,000
$RNDR is going to $150
$INJ is going to $100
Sensei bases his analysis on both fundamentals and technicals. For Render Token, he noted that it had formed a cup and handle chart pattern on the monthly chart and found strong support at the upper side of this pattern, increasing the possibility of a rebound.
INJ and RNDR Face Headwinds
Fundamentally, Injective and Render are encountering several headwinds. Injective, a blockchain network for the finance industry, has seen the volume of its assets retreat in recent months. After peaking at $204 million in March, the volume has dropped to $114 million, its lowest point since February 17th.
Most major names in the ecosystem, such as Hydro Protocol, DojoSwap, and Mito Finance, have seen their assets drop by over 10% in the past 30 days. However, Helix, its biggest DEX, handled over $59 million in transactions in the past 24 hours. According to developers, over $1 billion worth of INJ tokens has been staked on-chain.
On the other hand, Render Network is facing strong competition from platforms like Akash Network, which offers decentralized GPUs. Additionally, most altcoins are struggling due to the lack of significant market-moving news in the crypto industry. There are also concerns that a new crypto winter, similar to the one from November 2021 to November 2022, could be on the horizon.
