 The injective (INJ) token is one of the standout performers in the past week, rising more than 60% as its <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">Price</a> broke above $20.&nbsp;
 On December 12, the INJ price shot to highs of $27 across major crypto exchanges, touching a new all-time high as major altcoins looked to recoup losses seen on Monday.
 As Injective looks for continued upside, one of the questions to ask is what has driven this token to its new ATH. Is this rally therefore likely to be sustainable, or will bears spoil the bulls’ Christmas party?
 <h2 dir="ltr" id="why-is-injective-price-surging">Why is Injective price surging?</h2>
 The last 30 days have seen the <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">Price</a> of Injective’s native token surge by more than 55%, while the steady upswing since the lows reached in December 2022 has included a parabolic rise of 1,570%. In recent weeks, positive ecosystem news have combined with the broader bullish sentiment to send INJ higher.
 One of the catalysts this past few days has been Injective’s weekly token burn. The latest of these saw over $65,000 worth of INJ burned, permanently removing them from circulation.
 Amid the burn auction, Injective has also witnessed a significant spike in total INJ staked. According to on-chain data, over $1 billion worth of the token has so far been staked.
 
 <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">
 Over $1 Billion worth of $INJ is now staked on chain.
 That’s it. That’s the tweet.

 This outlook has put pressure on Injective rising ahead of a recently announced upgrade dubbed Volan. According to the Injective team, this is going to be the largest mainnet upgrade in the layer-1 blockchain’s history.
 Injective teased the Volan upgrade on November 30, and INJ <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">Price</a> has skyrocketed more than 66% in the two weeks since. Network activity around Injective-based decentralized exchange (DEX) Helix has also contributed to the upward trajectory.
 <h2 dir="ltr" id="inj-price-outlook">INJ price outlook</h2>
 As INJ pares some of the intraday gains to trade around $26 at the time of writing, a bullish continuation could see buyer eye <a rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" title="Price" href="https://thebittimes.com/tag/price.html">Price</a> beyond $30. A bearish flip amid broader market retreat could inform the potential slip to support in the $20-$18 range.
