AVAX's recovery aligns with similar upside moves across the top-ranking crypto assets.
Avalanche (AVAX) bulls snubbed the sensational claims made by a self-proclaimed whistleblower website that the project's parent firm, Ava Labs, paid lawyers to damage its competitors' reputation.
Avalanche price recovers from serious allegations
AVAX's price established an intraday high of $19.75 on Aug. 30, two days after bottoming out locally at $17.50, amounting to a 15% rise. The token's modest recovery followed selloffs incurred by a sensational CryptoLeaks report.

AVAX's price fell 3.5% on Aug. 26, the day on which CryptoLeaks released an unverified video showing Kyle Roche, the partner at Roche Freedman, saying that he could sue Solana, one of Avalanche's top rivals, on behalf of Ava Labs.

The token fell by another 7.5% the next day after the whistleblower website released the full report, including another unverified video featuring Roche.
In addition, Avalanche's intraday losses aligned with similar negative moves across other top crypto assets.
AVAX can rise 55%
Avalanche's fundamentals are strongly tied to the overall cryptocurrency market, which keeps it prone to undergoing additional downtrends.
Independent analyst PostyXBT noted that AVAX's price could decline to the $13-$15 range next and to "keep BTC in mind" while placing a short position toward the area.

Textbook short set up forming.
Only concern being deviation caused by $BTC running higher towards $20.8k.

Conversely, analyst TraderSZ sees AVAX's price tcontinue its recovery trend in the coming days. His setup, as illustrated below, envisions the Avalanche token to reach approximately $30 in September.
The upside target aligns with AVAX's prevailing "symmetrical triangle" setup. Notably, the price has rebounded after testing the triangle's lower trendline as support and now sees the structure's upper trendline as its interim upside target.
The upper trendline is near the TraderSZ's price target of $30, as shown below.
In other words, AVAX could rally by over 55% from its current price levels.
