Direct answer
Subnet growth or institutional interest may temporarily boost sentiment, but price action remains king. Ignore hype; focus on volume and key levels.
Market context before reacting
BTC dominance rising, altcoins under pressure. AVAX vulnerable to broader risk-off tone but could outperform if mid-cap rotation begins.
Headlines that usually matter
