Deep Dive
1. Accelerated Token Burn (Bullish Impact)
Overview: Infinity Ground executed Phase 1 of its AIN token burn on July 30, 2025, destroying 2.62M tokens via market buyback – 11 days ahead of schedule (Infinity Ground). This reduced circulating supply by ~1.24%.
What this means: Burns create deflationary pressure by permanently removing tokens from circulation. Combined with using project funds for buybacks, this signals commitment to token value and often attracts speculative interest. The early execution suggests strong treasury management, reinforcing investor confidence.
What to watch: Announcements about Phase 2 burns – timing and scale could amplify scarcity effects.
2. Derivatives Market Expansion (Mixed Impact)
Overview: Multiple exchanges like KuCoin and Binance Futures launched AINUSDT perpetual contracts between July 10–11, 2025, enabling leveraged trading with up to 50x exposure.
What this means: New derivatives listings typically increase liquidity and trader participation. However, high leverage (50x) raises volatility risk – 78% of AIN’s 90-day gains occurred before these listings, suggesting traders may be pricing in future utility from Infinity Ground’s AI development tools.
3. Technical Strength (Bullish Bias)
Overview: AIN holds above its 30-day SMA ($0.113) and shows:
- RSI 14: 69.48 (neutral-bullish, not yet overbought)
- MACD: Bullish crossover with histogram at +0.004
What this means: The price has consolidated above key support levels after a 414% 90-day rally. The RSI suggests room for upward momentum if buying pressure continues, while the MACD indicates strengthening bullish divergence.
Conclusion
AIN’s gains reflect a combination of strategic supply reduction, infrastructure growth, and technical resilience. While the token burn and exchange support provide fundamental tailwinds, traders should monitor whether the RSI sustains below overbought thresholds (70+) and derivatives open interest for overheating signals.
Key watch: Can AIN hold above the critical Fibonacci support at $0.146 (23.6% retracement level) amid broader market uncertainty?
