Besides, the wallet retained over 865,400 AVAX, worth $5.73 million, after completing those deposits. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Notably, the remaining holdings carried additional supply implications because the whale was yet to stake the tokens.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Therefore, those tokens remained liquid and potentially available for further transfers toward exchanges. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With the broader crypto market experiencing gains today, AVAX\u2019s price rose 6.8% to $6.79 in 24 hours, at press time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Market activity was also substantially higher, with daily volume rising by 129.52% to about $415 million. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">That growth provided even more space for buyers to absorb incoming supply without having to sell the recovery immediately.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, more <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/Nazo_ku\/status\/2090124052505743682\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">whale deposits<\/a> may necessitate the need for more demand near the resistance level.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Top traders kept leaning toward longs<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Bullish positioning among Binance&#8217;s top traders complemented the sharp expansion in AVAX trading activity.
