Widely followed analyst Nicholas Merten is offering his forecast on four crypto assets amid an industry-wide market rally.

Starting with payments-focused blockchain network Stellar (XLM), Merten tells the 510,000 YouTube subscribers of the DataDash channel that the XRP rival is sitting at a “typical discount range”.

According to Merten, XLM could appreciate by around 200% against Bitcoin (XLM/BTC).

“You’ve got an opportunity here [with XLM] to have a 3X against Bitcoin, right from 0.00000200 BTC to 0.00000600 BTC. I like those kind of plays.”

XLM is trading at 0.00000210 BTC ($0.14) at time of writing.

Turning to decentralized finance (DeFi), the widely followed analyst says that some of the altcoins in the sector such as Aave (AAVE), Compound (COMP) and Uniswap (UNI) are oversold.

On Aave, Merten says that the decentralized lending protocol is in a “nice trend” against the US dollar, signifying the potential for more upside.

AAVE is trading at $130 at time of writing.

On Compound, the crypto analyst says,

“Nice solid momentum. Solid foundation here built up on some of these plays, far away from those prior May 2021 highs [of ~ $854]… And I’m not saying it’s going to go all the way up there.”

Compound is trading at $87.07 at time of writing.

Turning to decentralized exchange Uniswap, Merten says that UNI is “another really strong play.” According to the crypto strategist, Ethereum (ETH) could act as a catalyst for Uniswap and other DeFi tokens that are built on the second-largest blockchain by market cap.

“I think some of these plays could really start to pick up as Ethereum is starting to pick up as well on the market.”

UNI is trading at $14.95 at time of writing. Ethereum is trading at $3,975 at time of writing, up about 150% since mid-October.

An Ethereum (ETH)-based native token for a decentralized finance (DeFi) project is flashing a couple of bullish divergences, according to the crypto analytics firm Santiment.

Aave (AAVE), a DeFi lending protocol, is trading at $93.89 at time of writing and is up more than 2.3% in the past 24 hours.

Santiment notes that the asset’s top 150 non-exchange wallets now hold 9.61 million AAVE, a five-month high.

The analytics firm also says AAVE’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) has dropped below 40, which has historically been a “bounce zone” for the asset.

The RSI is a widely used momentum indicator that aims to determine if an asset is overbought or oversold. The indicator scales from 0 to 100, and a reading of below 30 is typically considered bullish while a reading of over 70 is typically considered to be a bearish sign.

In terms of other crypto assets, Santiment notes that Ethereum competitor Cardano (ADA) noticed a sudden loss of small wallets back in mid-November.

“A drop of addresses this size or smaller often indicates capitulation, and a potential price turning point. ADA is +65% since.”

ADA is trading at $0.635 at time of writing. The eighth-ranked crypto asset by market cap is up nearly 8% in the past 24 hours.

The crypto analytics firm Santiment says that whales are showing significant interest in a red-hot Ethereum (ETH)-based Chainlink (LINK) rival.

The native asset of decentralized oracle protocol Tellor (TRB) clocked 51 unique $100,000+ transactions on Monday, a new all-time high.

TRB is trading at $91.66 at time of writing, up from around $9.83 two months ago, a staggering increase of more than 832%. Despite the massive gains, however, the asset remains more than 43% down from its all-time high of $161.12, which it hit in May 2021.

Santiment also notes that TRB’s unique active addresses and newly created addresses are both surging.

“Tellor’s price has now jumped ~+750% since July, and whales are showing more interest than ever before while new addresses continue to pour in. TRB is now the #192 market cap asset (and rising) as it leads the altcoin charge here in October.”

Additionally, the analytics firm notes that LINK, blockchain scaling solution Polygon (MATIC), layer-1 blockchain Aptos (APT), and lending platform Aave (AAVE) are all witnessing their “best-performing de-couplings” of the year.

“Unlike Bitcoin’s previous two brief visits to $30,000, this latest resistance level break to end the weekend has occurred as altcoins surge, rather than falling behind BTC’s price.”

LINK, the 14th-ranked crypto asset by market cap, is trading at $10.31 at time of writing. MATIC, the 13th-ranked, is worth $0.625. APT, ranked 35th, is currently changing hands at $6.23. The 41st-ranked AAVE is trading for $83.31.
