After a rough start to 2025, where even Ethereum (ETH) tanked by 45% in Q1, the crypto market is finally flashing signs of life over the past month, and this bullish momentum is now spilling over into major altcoins.
One such altcoin making a strong comeback is Injective (INJ). After experiencing a heavy sell-off, $INJ has surged by nearly 12% — cutting its year-to-date losses down to about 47%. And now, a fractal pattern is emerging, hinting that the recovery may not be over just yet.

HYPE and INJ Fractal Analysis
As shown in the side-by-side chart comparison, HYPE (left chart) previously underwent a brutal -56% correction, forming what appears to be a classic bearish cypher harmonic pattern — often associated with price reversals. After bottoming out at around $9.34 on April 7th, HYPE bounced impressively, reclaiming both the 50-day and 100-day moving averages (MA).
This bullish breakout led to a 35% rally, with HYPE now trading just under $20 and brushing up against a key resistance at $21.12 (orange zone). This level marks a major prior structure, and a breakout above it could ignite a further upward run.
HYPE and INJ Chart Comparison/Coinsprobe (Source: Tradingview)
Now look at Injective (INJ) on the right chart — the similarities are hard to miss. INJ also experienced a -56% decline, bounced from the lows, and has now cleared its 50-day MA. It’s currently trading near $10.31 and heading toward the 100-day MA at $12.01, which aligns closely with HYPE's structure just before its surge.
What's Next for INJ?
If the pattern continues to play out, INJ could see a 35% move to mirror HYPE’s recent breakout. The immediate upside target is the 100-day MA at $12.01, followed by the major resistance zone around $14.81. From current levels, this would represent a 46% gain.
This fractal-based setup, along with improving market sentiment, makes Injective a strong contender for continued bullish momentum in May.
Final Thoughts
Fractals aren’t perfect, but when combined with trend structure and moving average dynamics, they can offer strong clues. With the broader market perking up and INJ tracking closely behind HYPE’s recovery path, all eyes are now on the next few candles.
