Ordinals are a relatively novel innovation within the crypto space, but ORDI, the cryptocurrency with the Ordinals namesake, is within the grasp of the bears. According to the latest market data provided by CoinCodex, the token is down nearly 5% within the last 24 hours despite Bitcoin making an 11% gain within the past week. Related Reading: Here Are 5 Reasons To Be Bullish On Bitcoin, Analyst Says Up And Down The Rabbit Hole Even though the market seems bullish for Bitcoin and the market as a whole, Ordinals seem to go against the grain. Analysts are hopeful that ORDI is on the path to a potential bullish breakthrough, however, this seems unlikely. Although BRC-20 standard tokens are following the general market trend, ORDI in itself is bland, offering no other utility, unlike others within the same category. But its utility in bringing NFTs to the Bitcoin blockchain might provide some value to the mix. A recent “State of the Union-esque” done at Christie’s Art and Tech Summit showed that the NFT market’s relationship with the traditional art world is in a transitional stage. “We know that there is a provenance verification opportunity here. We all know it and we all know that the art world is resisting it because it suggests transparency, which we say we want but we don’t really want,” Pace Gallery CEO Marc Glimcher said at the event. If Bitcoin Ordinals keeps attracting developers to its niche, further expanding the codebase on Github, there might be a chance that an increase in development for the open-source platform will lead to overall higher adoption of the BRC-20 standard that will increase investor confidence towards the asset. $50 ORDI Closer Than Expected? Despite volatility being a double-edged sword for the most part, ORDI bulls are in a great position to push the token to its limits; At the time of writing, ORDI sustained a solid 26% rally in the weekly frame. And at $41.33, the price offers little resistance to the overall positive mood of the market, which might lead to a bullish takeover within the next couple of days. ORDI price up in the weekly frame.

But the high volatility also means that this move of accumulation will be a gamble for investors and traders as more and more analysts eye a bigger breakthrough in the long run. This scenario is highly dependent on the general market upswings that might or might not occur these next few weeks. Investors and traders should monitor the market and look for other opportunities before considering a runback to ORDI. Featured image from Pexels, chart from TradingView

#bitcoin #crypto #altcoins #filecoin #cryptocurrency market news #fil

Popular analyst Javon Marks projects a significant 44X increase in Filecoin (FIL), therefore transforming the token from its present value of $4.40 to $190. Related Reading: Render (RNDR) Attracts Big Investors: $1 Million+ Whale Moves On The Rise This daring prognosis that he calls an “uphill run” has attracted the interest of the bitcoin community. Based on careful technical study and a hopeful perspective of the future of the market, this ambitious projection shows a startling 4310% growth. Technical Discovery Sparks Hope Marks’ faith in Filecoin’s promise derives from a recent technological discovery. Marks underlined in his most recent study posted on social networking site X that Filecoin has broken a significant resistance trendᅳa sign usually indicating a positive future. Though first seeming as a tiny technical bounce, Marks sees this breakthrough as a big indicator of long-term bullish momentum. $FIL (Filecoin) may only be preparing here for a more than 44X back to the $190 levels as prices hold well broken out of a once critical resisting trend. As prices hold this breakout, sideways action and pullbacks may only contribute to this >4,310% uphill run. https://t.co/tVPvBKX7mn pic.twitter.com/Vipqp2Xypj — JAVON⚡️MARKS (@JavonTM1) July 11, 2024 Breaking this level of resistance is a good indication of continuous optimistic tendencies. Even if we see some sideways trade or slight pullbacks, the long-term view remains absolutely bullish as long as the prices maintain above this prior barrier. Market Mood And Institutional Interest Beyond technical study, Marks notes other general market elements that could support Filecoin’s development. Institutional investors, many of whom value distributed storage solutions, are showing fresh interest in cryptocurrencies generally. Filecoin’s strong technological architecture helps it to profit from this trend. It is impossible to overestimate the growing institutional curiosity in distributed storage solutions, the analyst suggested. The demand for Filecoin’s services will naturally rise as more businesses grasp and use these technologies, therefore increasing the value of the currency. Marks also underlined the generally rising attitude in the bitcoin market. Filecoin stands out among many investors looking for chances with great potential for growth because of its excellent technical basis and market relevance. Present Market Activity And Prices Filecoin fetches for $4.40 at the time of writing, a tiny 1.9% rise over the past trading session. Within a 24-hour range of $4.10 to $4.25, the token’s price has varied very steadily but somewhat higher tendency in the short run. These increases have been seen among changing investor attitude and different market situations. FIL market cap currently at $2.4 billion. Chart: TradingView.com With a good trading volume of $180 million over the past 24 hours, Filecoin indicates strong market activity. Reaching as $2.5 billion, its market capitalisation confirmed its prominence in the crypto scene. Optimism Among Variability The analyst counsels investors to approach with cautious optimism even with the positive indications. The natural volatility of the bitcoin market implies that, despite best intentions, forecasts can frequently fall short because of unanticipated market dynamics. While the technicals and market circumstances are positive, investors need to be cautious of the risks, Marks said. Strong signs might be overwhelmed by unexpected changes; the crypto market is famously erratic. Investors have to be aware of these hazards and control their expectations accordingly. Related Reading: Ethereum Seen Hitting $5,000 as German Bitcoin Sell-off Shakes Market A Possible Game Change Strong technical indications and favourable market circumstances help Javon Marks’ study of Filecoin to present a convincing picture of its future. Filecoin’s special position in the distributed storage space might definitely help to open the path for notable expansion as the bitcoin industry develops. Filecoin is under constant observation by both experts and investors, hence the next months will show if this ambitious projection will materialise or if market volatility will once again change the scene.

#crypto #whales #altcoins #rndr #render #cryptocurrency market news

Render (RNDR), the governance token of the distributed GPU rendering system, has seen a big rise in whale activity, which means that big investors are paying more attention. Related Reading: Notcoin (NOT) Ignites Crypto Market, Analyst Predicts 25% Rally Santiment says that on July 14, the number of deals worth $1 million or more went through the roof. This made people aware that the price of the token could change a lot. Large transactions often show what big buyers are doing, so they have a big effect on how the RNDR market moves. Institutional Interest And Market Influence The large number of whales trading RNDR coins shows that big buyers see the token as a valuable asset. When whales jack up their buying activities, the price may go up, otherwise it remains stagnant. It’s clear from this pattern how important establishment players are in setting market trends. In the past, when there were more whale trades, the price of RNDR tended to go up. Looking back at similar events in March and May, we can see that RNDR’s price went from being bearish to being positive. This shows that whale behaviour is linked to price increases. The price of RNDR was $6.20 at the time of the news, down 8.85% in the last 24 hours. Even though there is a short-term drop, other signs point to a possible positive trend. Render market cap currently at $2.4 billion. Chart: TradingView.com Network Activity And Market Sentiment In addition to whale action, Render network metrics have gotten a lot better. IntoTheBlock data shows that the number of active addresses on the network has increased by 100% in the last week, which means that the number of users is growing. In addition to the increase in new members, there has been an 86% growth in the number of new locations. The mood in the market about RNDR has also improved. Analysts at Santiment say that the Weighted Sentiment measure has turned positive, which means that the market as a whole has better feelings about RNDR. Price increases often happen before positive mood does, because it shows that buyers are becoming more confident. Render Price Forecast Related Reading: Analysts Unanimous: Solana (SOL) To Soar 100% – Details Even though current sentiment has been negative and the Fear & Greed Index has been neutral, the long-term picture for Render Token is still positive. Render has a probability of increasing in price by around 226% and hit $21.51 by mid-August, according to current predictions. But the token’s success over the last 30 days, with 47% “green” days and 8.63% price fluctuation, makes it important to be careful. Featured image from Asia Crypto Today, chart from TradingView

For Chainlink (LINK), the waters of the bitcoin market are moving in its favor. Inspired by recent accumulation from big investors and forecasts of an upward trend, the asset is exhibiting signs of life following a period of slow performance. Nonetheless, the path to recovery might be a meandering one as experts have conflicting projections for the next years. Related Reading: Mass Adoption? NEAR Protocol Sees 17 Million Unique Addresses In 30 Days Whales Build Chainlink During Crisis Market observers are fixated on the behaviour of “whales,” or heavily weighted investors. Renowned crypto analyst Ali Martinez claims that these whales have been on a purchasing frenzy, grabbing an amazing 6.2 million LINK tokens valued $76.88 million during the most recent price drop. According to this “buy-the-dip” approach, whales find promise in LINK and think the present low price offer a good purchase possibility. For his part, crypto expert Michael van de Poppe sees a seasonal pattern of “finding bottoms in June of every year.” According to him, most likely than not, such patters are having the same bottoming procedure so far this year, and will “start to crawl upwards from hereon.” $LINK has been getting a seasonal pattern of finding bottoms in June of every year.

With LINK hitting $14.92 by July 15th, a surge of 12%, CoinCheckup, a crypto trading site, projects a quite calm ride ahead. Forecasting a 30% jump in the following seven days followed by a notable 154.88% growth within a year, CoinCheckup, a price prediction tool, presents a more clearer picture and links the altcoin to a price of $32.83. Not everyone, meantime, is raising a positive flag. Another crypto analyzer tool, CoinCodex, presents a more wary image. By August 9th, their projection points to a 66.07% increase that will bring $21.39. Their technical indicators, however, show a “bearish” attitude towards LINK; the Fear & Greed Index ticks around 28 (the fear zone). Network Evolution And Regulatory Headwinds Although optimistic forecasts and whale activity point to good things ahead, LINK’s road forward is not without difficulties. Regulatory obstacles still brings forth issues as governments all over struggle with how to monitor the always changing bitcoin terrain. Also of big importance for LINK’s future direction will be changes in networks and more general market trends.

#memecoin #polygon #altcoins #matic #all

Polygon (MATIC), which is the Layer-2 scaling solution for Ethereum, is currently experiencing an unusual circumstance. Although there has been a significant increase in the amount of network activity, the price of the cryptocurrency continues to be uncertain. Both a potential technical breakthrough and a persistently negative mindset are preventing it from moving forward. Related Reading: Mass Adoption? NEAR Protocol Sees 17 Million Unique Addresses In 30 Days Polygon: Can Active Addresses Raise The Bar? Polygon’s network was humming on July 8th, with an astounding 1.18 million active addresses. For the same period, this easily outpaced Ethereum (365K) and Bitcoin (594K). The increase in user activity stoked expectations of a positive breakout, especially as MATIC was trading over a crucial $0.50 barrier level. Co-founder of Polygon Mihailo Bjelic excitedly provided this statistics, emphasising the increasing use of the network. Some cryptocurrency fans, meanwhile, were quick to label this as a “vanity metric.” They contended that robust economic fundamentals or important transactions are not always correlated with raw address count. Number of active addresses (24h): Polygon: 1.18M Bitcoin: 594k Ethereum: 365k Not too shabby, I guess.. — Mihailo Bjelic (@MihailoBjelic) July 8, 2024 Although resistance lingers, the falling wedge pattern suggests a breakout. Taking into consideration the technological aspects, it seems that things are getting better for MATIC. As the token has been moving in a falling wedge formation, which is commonly seen as a sign that an upswing in the market is about to occur, the pattern has been observed. In addition, as a result of a recent spike in price, MATIC came dangerously close to crossing the threshold of $0.50 for a brief while. It is probable that this is an indication of a future breakout, particularly if the volume of trade grows. MATIC market cap at nearly $5 billion today. Chart: TradingView.comBut the bulls are up against an unyielding obstacle. As the mark has shown to be a strong resistance level in the past, a clear break above it is essential to the validation of the falling wedge breakout. Moreover, the general mood of the market is still biassed towards the bears. At the time of writing, MATIC was down 10% in the weekly timeframe, data from Coingecko show. Bullish Binance, But Can They Move The Market? Meanwhile, the biggest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, Binance offers some optimism. When it comes to MATIC, Binance, users seem to be far more optimistic than the whole market. With a solid long to short position ratio of 3.2052, they appear to have a high conviction in the potential of MATIC going forward. Related Reading: XRP Stages A Comeback: Aims To Reclaim $0.50 After Recent Plunge It’s encouraging to see such strong enthusiasm on a significant exchange. But it’s not clear if it will be sufficient to counter the general pessimism. For MATIC, the next several days will be critical. A falling wedge breakthrough might occur if it can generate enough volume to break over the $0.50 barrier and maintain the momentum. But if the barrier holds and the bearish attitude persists, MATIC can experience more downside pressure. Featured image from cryptodnes.bg, chart from TradingView

#crypto #meme coins #altcoins #wif #dogwifhat #cryptocurrency market news

Dogwifhat, the once-high-flying Solana-based meme coin, suffered a brutal week, mirroring a broader crypto market correction and raising questions about the sustainability of the meme coin craze. Related Reading: Dogecoin Decimated: $5 Million Liquidation Sparks 14% Price Plunge Meme Coin Mania Meets Market Mayhem WIF, the token powering Dogwifhat, saw its price plummet 15% in just 24 hours. This dramatic drop erased all the gains from a recent rebound rally. The sell-off wasn’t isolated to Dogwifhat; the entire crypto market experienced a double-digit tumble, with major altcoins like Ethereum and Cardano feeling the heat. Analysts point to a combination of factors behind the downturn, including renewed concerns about inflation and a recent sell-off by the German government and Mt. Gox, a defunct cryptocurrency exchange. The price of $WIF dropped 15% as the market fell. A whale deposited 900K $WIF($1.64M) to #Bybit 10 hours ago, leaving 974K $WIF($1.76M).https://t.co/qJwlxcWy15 pic.twitter.com/amIkvwKfNG — Lookonchain (@lookonchain) July 4, 2024 The pain for Dogwifhat was further amplified by a whale of a different kind: a large investor. LookOnChain, a blockchain whale tracking agency, identified a major Solana whale dumping 900,000 WIF tokens in a series of transactions. This fire sale, amounting to roughly $1.64 million, undoubtedly contributed to the downward spiral. Dogfight On Derivatives: Bulls Trampled, Bears Feast While the Spot market witnessed a bloodbath, the WIF derivatives market displayed a curious mix of activity. Trading volume surged by a surprising 25%, propelling Dogwifhat to the coveted title of third most-demanded meme coin behind Dogecoin and Pepe Token. This surge in volume might suggest increased interest, but a closer look reveals a different story. Lurking beneath the surface was a brutal battle between bullish and bearish investors. More than $3 million in WIF positions were liquidated in the last 24 hours. This liquidation primarily targeted long positions, meaning investors who bet on the price going up were forced to sell at a loss as the price plummeted. While some might see the increased volume as a sign of potential revival, the liquidation figures paint a starker picture – many bulls got trampled by the bears feasting on the market downturn. A Buying Opportunity Or A Boneheaded Move? Despite the carnage, not everyone has lost faith in Dogwifhat. The plummeting price has attracted some opportunistic “Solana whales” who view the current price as an attractive entry point. This glimmer of hope hinges on the possibility that Dogwifhat can recapture its past glory. Related Reading: Buy The Dip? XRP Whales Doing Exactly That – Is A Price Rally Next? In Q1 2024, Dogwifhat was a meme coin darling, riding the wave of the meme coin craze to a $4 billion market cap and a place in the top 30 global crypto rankings. However, the recent downturn serves as a stark reminder of the inherent volatility of meme coins, which often lack the utility or strong fundamentals of established cryptocurrencies. The future of Dogwifhat remains uncertain. Whether it can claw its way back from the doghouse or fade into obscurity depends on several factors, including broader market trends, community support, and potential developments within the Dogwifhat ecosystem.

#crypto #ripple #xrp #altcoins #cryptocurrency market news #xrpusd

The cryptocurrency market continues to navigate choppy waters, with many digital assets experiencing significant price drops. However, XRP seems to be charting a different course. While the broader market sentiment remains cautious, large investors, often referred to as “whales,” have been quietly accumulating XRP. This bullish behavior by whales, coupled with positive technical indicators, has some analysts predicting a potential surge for XRP in the coming months. Related Reading: Polkadot Under Fire: 20% Price Drop Follows $87 Million Spending Outrage XRP Whales Dive Deep: A Sign Of Confidence Or Opportunism? According to data from Santiment, a blockchain analytics firm, the holdings of XRP whales (addresses holding over 1 billion tokens) have grown from nearly 40% in mid-June to 42% at the time of writing. This significant increase in whale accumulation suggests a growing level of confidence in XRP’s future potential. The recent buying spree by whales could be interpreted in two ways: It could be a sign that they believe XRP is undervalued and poised for a rebound. Alternatively, they might see the current dip as an attractive buying opportunity. While the intentions behind the whale activity remain unclear, the impact is undeniable. The influx of large buy orders can help stabilize the price and even trigger a short-term rally. However, analysts caution that whale activity alone cannot guarantee a sustained price increase. Long-Term Holders Stay Put Beyond whale movements, on-chain analysis offers further insights into XRP’s potential trajectory. Dormant circulation, a metric that tracks the movement of tokens held in long-term storage, paints a promising picture. Currently, the dormant circulation of XRP is low, indicating that long-term holders are not offloading their assets. This suggests a belief in the long-term viability of the Ripple ecosystem and a potential reluctance to sell at current prices. The low dormant circulation is a positive sign. It indicates that long-term holders are holding onto their XRP, which can help prevent a further price decline. This could create a solid foundation for a future price increase. Related Reading: Dogecoin Decimated: $5 Million Liquidation Sparks 14% Price Plunge What Do Technical Charts Say? Technical analysis, which studies historical price data and chart patterns, also offers a glimmer of hope for XRP bulls. The Relative Strength Index (RSI), a momentum indicator, currently suggests that XRP is oversold. This could be a sign that a price rebound is imminent. The price of XRP was $0.41 at the time of writing, data from Coingecko shows. This is a drop of 4.82% over the previous day. However, given the recent whale activity, the value may level off at the indicated price or maybe move toward $0.45. A Cautiously Optimistic Projection While the recent whale accumulation, low dormant circulation, and positive technical indicators paint a cautiously optimistic picture for XRP, the cryptocurrency market remains unpredictable. The success of XRP’s potential surge will hinge on several factors, including broader market sentiment, regulatory clarity surrounding Ripple’s ongoing legal battle with the SEC, and any unforeseen events that could impact the market.
