Market traders are betting big on Immutable X in the near future. They believe that IMX crypto could be one of the big players in the NFT segment, but at the same time it needs to expand its horizon a bit.

The only red flag is it is showing bearish trends after managing to gain some ground. The significant highs that it had gained in November 2021 were undone by December losses. This stop-start performance means the IMX token must reload and then gain ground again. Market participants would be hoping that it can have a prolonged bullish trend to get more people interested in it.
