INJ and APT: Altcoin Analysis for December 15, 2023
Yesterday, Bitcoin briefly revisited its local low of $41,400, but this dip was quickly offset, keeping the preliminary BTC analysis relevant. Here's a focused market overview of the alternative cryptocurrencies Injective (INJ) and Aptos (APT) for Friday, December 15.
Injective (INJ)
In 2023, INJ has seen an impressive 2000% growth, with a significant 350% increase from October to December. It recently reached a new all-time high of $33.4, and the buying momentum doesn't seem to be waning.
Maintaining the upward trajectory of Injective is key at the moment. Despite never having breached the $32.1-$33.4 resistance zone before, buyers might aim for new levels at $35 and $38, assuming BTC stabilizes above $42,000.
Any correction in INJ is likely to correlate with BTC's potential downturn. If BTC starts a downward trend, Injective could revisit its support zones at $28.5-$29.8, $26.6, and $23.6-$25.

Aptos (APT)
APT continues to exhibit positive growth. It increased by 32% in December 2023, reaching a local high of $9.2. Currently, the coin is trading in a sideways range, with support at $8.00 and resistance at $8.75-$9.20.
If BTC maintains above $40,000, APT's growth is likely to persist. The next major target for buyers would be the psychologically significant $10 mark. Beyond this point, APT's growth could accelerate, considering its prolonged absence from these price levels, potentially rendering current resistance levels obsolete.
In a downturn scenario, APT might fall to the $7.30-$7.62 range or even test the $7 level. It's important to note that private APT investors recently unlocked a significant number of coins bought at $2-$3. Consequently, any correction in the Aptos market could exert downward pressure on its price due to the increased supply.
