Injective (INJ) trades near $3 after 76% yearly drop, testing key support as RSI signals oversold conditions.
Injective (INJ) is trading near $3.27 on the weekly chart, following an extended decline from its 2024 highs above $40.
Market data shows the asset remains under pressure, while technical indicators suggest oversold conditions.
Weekly Price Structure Remains Bearish
The weekly INJ/USDT chart shows a clear pattern of lower highs and lower lows since early 2024.
A major top formed above $40, and price has trended downward since then. The broader structure remains bearish.
Price is now testing the $3.00 level, which serves as a psychological and recent reaction zone.
Below that, support levels are seen near $2.50 and $2.00. These areas previously acted as consolidation bases.
On the upside, resistance is visible near $5.00, followed by $8.00 to $10.00. A weekly close above $5 would mark the first structural improvement. Until then, the trend remains intact.
RSI and MACD Show Oversold Conditions
The weekly Relative Strength Index is near 29 to 32. This places INJ in oversold territory. However, during strong downtrends, RSI can remain low for extended periods.
A move above 40 on the weekly RSI would signal improving momentum. At present, no confirmed bullish divergence is visible. Price continues to respect the broader downward structure.

The MACD indicator remains below the zero line. The histogram shows weakening bearish momentum, but no bullish crossover has formed.
This suggests downside pressure may be slowing, though confirmation is absent.

Volume, Performance Metrics and DeFi Context
Trading volume has declined during the downtrend. There is no visible accumulation spike on the weekly chart.
A sustained reversal would require a strong green candle with higher volume.
Performance data shows short-term gains but longer-term weakness. INJ is up 4.30% over 24 hours and 6.70% over seven days.
However, it remains down 33.77% over 30 days and 76.94% over one year.

Total Value Locked across DeFi stands near $94.3 billion, down 1.79% in 24 hours. This remains below the 2021 peak near $180 billion, yet above 2022 lows.
While DeFi capital has stabilized, INJ price action has not confirmed accumulation.
Injective now trades at a critical level near $3.00. A sustained defense could lead to range formation between $3 and $5.
A breakdown below support may expose lower historical zones near $2.50 and $2.00.

Bitcoin has recently continued to hit new lows, currently trading at $70,923, and CryptoQuant has warned that the recent rebound is only a short-term rally in a bear market, with a bull market score of only 10 points. The US stock market has declined across the board, and the crypto market is also under pressure. The future trend depends on whether spot demand turns positive. There are multiple scenarios in the market, including possible sideways consolidation or a drop to the $56,000-$60,000 support zone. Ethereum has shown relative strength in this wave of market movement, but if Bitcoin continues to decline, its support levels will need to be observed.

Culper Research announces short positions on ETH and related securities, claiming that Fusaka's upgraded token economic model has been damaged
Short-selling firm Culper Research announced that it is shorting Ethereum and related securities, believing that the Fusaka upgrade in 2025 will harm the ETH tokenomics model. The upgrade resulted in a larger-than-expected decrease in Gas fees, and on-chain data shows that the growth in active addresses and transaction volume is driven by low-value transactions. Culper believes Vitalik is aware of this and will continue to sell ETH, expecting ETH prices to decline further.

Why did Bitcoin drop today? The US warns of a ground invasion in Iran, and Trump demands to lead the next Supreme Leader.
Bitcoin prices fluctuate due to escalating geopolitical tensions, dropping from $72,000 to $70,000 on March 6. Trump's tough rhetoric on the Iran situation, Iran's refusal to cease fire, and the U.S. military announcing increased strikes have heightened risk aversion. Market sentiment is divided, with some predicting Bitcoin will reach $80,000, but some analysts remain skeptical about a rebound. $72,000 is a key technical level; failure to break above it could lead to a drop toward $64,000.
