Two popular cryptocurrency technical analysts are predicting rallies for some decentralized finance (DeFi)-based cryptocurrencies even as Dogecoin (CRYPTO: DOGE) and Shiba Inu (CRYPTO: SHIB) grab the limelight.
The Coins: Popular crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe said on Twitter that one of the DeFi coins that he sees continuing to trend higher is Curve DAO Token (CRYPTO: CRV).

Pseudonymous cryptoanalyst Altcoin Sherpa told his more than 130,000 followers on Twitter that he thinks DeFi token Avalanche (CRYPTO: AVAX) could be poised to rally.

Altcoin Sherpa said that while he took some profits when Avalanche touched $70, he still holds a large holding of the token and anticipates it to surge as non fungible tokens (NFTs) are “doing well.”
$AVAX: I still have a large bag of this; I took some profits at $70 but have mostly chilled in it the last few weeks. Playing some coins on the #AVAX ecosystem but thats about it. With NFTs doing well, I think L1s have 1 more leg to come. pic.twitter.com/q8UECtShwE
