Axie Infinity (

Axie Infinity records abysmal gains on Beam’s account
Axie Infinity (AXS) price is up 17% since the onset of December 15 in a rather dry or gentle slope.Over the same duration, Beam (BEAM) coin price has soared 151% with a steep climb.Despite being a late entrant, BEAM market capitalization is $1.103 billion against AXS’s $975 million, with the former being a clear usurper.
AXS/USDT 1-day chart, BEAM/USDT 1-day chart
Beam’s remarkable traction in what is arguably the most fervent sector of cryptocurrency adoption, gaming, comes on the back of its robust technology infrastructure and community participation.Its hallmark revolves around the Beam SDK, which enables easy integration of components such as NFTs and token economies by game creators into their games.
Axie Infinity price could drop 5%
Axie Infinity price could fall 5% to test the $7.05 support as the RSI is already subdued, flattening to show waning momentum.Meanwhile, the histogram bars of the Awesome Oscillator (A) are red-soaked and edging towards the zero line, suggesting the bears are gaining ground.The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) indicator is also crossing below the signal line (orange band) accentuating the bearish thesis.
If the $7.05 support fails to hold, Axie Infinity price could extend the fall, potentially going as low as the $6.32 support.
Such a move would denote a 15% drop below current levels.

Conversely, if bullish momentum grows, Axie Infinity price could push north, breaching the immediate hurdle at $7.53.
In a highly bullish case, the gains could extend to the $8.06 barricade, above which the bearish thesis would be invalidating, giving the
gaming token a fair chance at targeting the 9.82 range high.
