However, the main focal point for the rewards system is the developers that test and ship their finished projects on the mainnet, further enhancing on-chain growth on the platform.  Retro9000 is mainly concerned on the upcoming Avalanche9000 network upgrade. The program allows developers of all sizes to keep try the new developer environment whilst keeping the economic barrier low through funding using the $40 million allotted for the program.  The cryptocurrency wallet and portfolio protocol, Core, said it would support its upcoming network upgrade, Avalanche9000, which will feature the Interchain Messaging Protocol (ICM). It promises much easier crosschain communication, thereby improving the user experience on this platform. Testnet builders, as you’re building out your L1 or L1 tooling on testnet, keep in mind that Core is helping cut your dev time by optimizing for the ability to move assets between chains and providing easy access to testnet support.

If this occurs, investors and traders are in with huge gains in the medium to long-term.  Although the market environment is inherently bullish, the relative strength index (RSI) of the token remains strained by the near-constant upward trajectory that AVAX has followed in the past two weeks, possibly putting AVAX’s short term gains at risk.  Related Reading: Stacks: New Network Upgrades Push STX Price Up By 18% – Details If the token does get rejected by the $30.11 resistance, the bulls can rely on AVAX’s present support level at $26.79 for long-term movement.  Featured image from Medium, chart from TradingView
