Ethereum Technical Analysis
First things first: Ethereum crossed below its 50 day moving average yesterday. The clearest trend exists on the 90 day timeframe, which shows price moving up over that time. It should be noted, though, that a trend in the opposite direction, going down, exists on the 30 day timeframe. So if you expect the primary trend to resume, the counter trend may be providing an opportunity to buy dips. Or to view things another way, note that out of the past 10 days Ethereum’s price has gone down 6 them. Also, candlestick traders! Note we see pin bar pattern appearing here as well.
Overheard on Twitter
For laughs, fights, or genuinely useful information, let’s see what the most popular tweets pertaining to Ethereum for the past day were:
- From ceterispar1bus:
If @thorchain_org works as envisioned for cross-chain swaps, it would make me more open to the idea that we’ll get dapps interacting cross-chain at some point as well. Would this impact the moat/network effects of DeFi on Ethereum? Eg. Take out loan on Ethereum to use on Polkadot
- From twobitidiot:
There are probably ~4-5 DeFi “products” with product-market fit right now.Bitcoin – digital gold
Ethereum – digital asset creation & settlement
Uniswap – permissionless exchange & market maker
USDT/Dai – dollar-pegged, censor-resistant stablecoinsIt’s still so early. - From sassal0x:
6/ What I think “the crowd” is getting wrong these days:- Many people still believe that eth2 isn’t ever going to launch
– People are sleeping on how far layer 2 tech has come
– Capital is still being misallocated to “Ethereum killers”
