With AI and big data tokens experiencing renewed capital rotation, Injective is pumping. In fact, after successfully holding $5.3, Injective finally reclaimed and flipped $6 resistance. 

In doing so, the altcoin jumped to a three-month high of $6.7. As of this writing, Injective traded around $6.39, marking a 13.15% surge on the daily charts. 

 The price hike was supported by a 172% surge in trading volume, reflecting increased capital deployment and market activity.

Injective’s staked supply hit ATH

Although capital rotation into AI coins is a major sector-wide boost, Injective is experiencing its own motivating factors. For starters, altcoin’s strong jump seems driven by rising demand from stakers and reduced supply.

As such, Injective reached a new all-time high in total tokens staked.

This jump in the amount of INJ staked made Injective one of the leading L1 chains by total staked supply.

With almost 59% of the supply already staked, tokens available for immediate selling have plunged extensively, with only 34 million INJ in circulation. 

Such a significant drop in supply has increased scarcity, which often strengthens tokens and leads to more gains.

INJ goes live on Robinhoodcrypto

As Injective expands its market reach, the network activity is growing, especially driven by real-world asset tokenization. As a result, Injective is one of the leading chains in tokenization.

The chain has now tokenized over $1 billion in residential mortgage records. Also, Injective seeks to migrate over $10 billion in assets in the coming months.

Can the rally continue?

With market supply reducing,  Injective’s upside pressure is emerging as dominant. For instance, INJ currently sits above the least squares moving averages, a clear sign of this bullish dominance.

At the same time, the altcoins’ Relative Strength Index (RSI) has held on an upward trajectory for four days, rising to 70. At these levels, RSI suggests bulls have total dominance of the market.

Often, such a setup has preceded some gains on the price charts. Therefore, if current conditions persist, Injective will close above $6.7 and eye a move past $7.

However, the recent price hike attracted profit-taking, which presents a pullback risk. Since INJ reclaimed $5 four days ago, Netflow has held positive, rising to $1.8 million.

Increased profit taking explains why the upside is slowing down, and if it continues, a drop below $6 will follow, with $5.6 as support.

Final Summary

  • INJ soared 13%, flipped $6 resistance, and climbed to a three-month high of $6.7 before a slight retrace. 
  • Injective reached a new ATH in INJ staked, with $58.8  million worth approximately $370 million staked on-chain.

Once the Federal Reserve starts the rate hike cycle, is "three consecutive hikes" a reasonable expectation?

BMO expects consecutive rate hikes in October and December, with a total of three increases potentially wiping out all rate cut gains for 2025. Vanguard believes "three consecutive hikes" is a reasonable starting point, but the actual number could be as high as six. There are historical exceptions: in 1997, the Federal Reserve raised rates only once and took no further action for the following 18 months. Meanwhile, trillion-dollar debt financing by AI giants, private credit exposure in the insurance industry, and the 10-year U.S. Treasury yield approaching 5% are the most dangerous pressure points in this rate hike cycle.

Goldman Sachs Also Changes Its Tune: The Fed Will Raise Interest Rates Next Week!

Goldman Sachs has shifted from predicting a rate hold to betting on a 25 basis point hike next week, stating that this change is not due to particularly bad inflation data—the August CPI was not perfect, but it wasn’t alarming either. The real key is that hawkish comments from Waller have already shaped market expectations: "If the inflation data isn’t perfect, there will be a rate hike." If the Federal Reserve backs down now, its credibility will suffer a serious blow and long-term interest rates could react sharply and immediately.
