What to Expect from ETH in December

Published

on


Despite the recent Bitcoin crash, Ethereum (ETH) price trades today at $3,675.2 as of 3 PM. Surprisingly, ETH performance during the recent crash is much better than most altcoins. Regardless, Ethereum prices today hit a daily high of $3,719.0 after 1.58% move on November 30.

Why is Ethereum Price Rising Today?

Ethereum price performance relative to its peers shows strength. While altcoins gave gains back to the market due to Bitcoin’s sudden downtrend, Ethereum price climbs higher. This strength shows a paradigm shift that hints at an end of Ether’s lackluster performance. If BTC consolidates or climbs higher, the ETH price could extend its gains. But a drop in BTC toward $90k could delay this uptrend.   could drop lower or climb higher.

*Ethereum price updated as of 3 PM.

Ethereum’s innovative smart contract technology has made it a standout altcoin since its inception in 2015. Continuous major network upgrades ensure Ethereum stays ahead in smart contract innovation. The latest upgrade, Cancun, launched on March 13, 2024.

Ethereum Price Outlook

ETH’s year-to-date (YTD) performance continues to increase and currently sits at 33%. This recent slump in Bitcoin price has affected the YTD gains, which have dropped from 50% since November 11. As of November 30, 2024, if you invested $10,000 in ETH on January 1, 2024, your portfolio, after 317 days, would be up roughly $3,317. Ethereum’s market capitalization stands at $442.7 billion.

Ethereum: The Second-Largest Crypto By Market Cap

Ethereum ranks second in market capitalization, valued at $442.7 billion, after Bitcoin’s $1.73 trillion. Together, BTC & ETH’s market capitalization constitutes 83% of the total crypto market cap.

Since its all-time high of $571 billion in November 2021, Ethereum’s value decreased by half in October, but has spiked recently due to Bitcoin’s new ATH. Still, Ethereum maintains a strong lead over other popular cryptocurrencies:

  • Solana (SOL): $98.8 billion
  • Ripple (XRP): $89.8 billion
  • BNB (BNB): $91.0 billion

Despite this recent downtick and recovery, the 24-hour trading volume of Ethereum is $32.8 billion.

Ethereum’s Crypto Trading Volume Soars

The 24-hour trading volume of Ethereum is $32.8 billion. Binance is the largest contributor to this trading volume – about 11% is contributed by spot trading and nearly 40% from futures trading. Exchanges like OKX, Bitget, and ByBit follow Binance.

Ethereum Upgrades to Proof-of-Stake Technology

The London hard fork is a significant Ethereum blockchain upgrade. It changed the network from Proof-of-Work (PoW) to Proof-of-Stake (PoS). Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently shared his thoughts on X (formerly Twitter). He explained how Proof-of-Stake (PoS) is more decentralized than Proof-of-Work (PoW).

Notable Ethereum Blockchain Upgrades in 5 Years

Here are some key upgrades in the past five years that shaped Ethereum as the second-largest crypto by market capitalization.

  • Cancun-Deneb (“Dencun”): This upgrade aimed to improve Ethereum’s scalability, security, and usability, setting the stage for further enhancements.

2023:

2022:

2021:

  • London: Implemented the highly anticipated EIP-1559, which reformed the transaction fee market, making it more efficient and user-friendly.

2020:

How ETH Gas Affects Ethereum Price

The blockchain upgrades Ethereum receives aim to solve the trilemma of blockchain, i.e., balancing decentralization, security, and scalability. The switch to Proof-of-Stake (PoS) enhanced these aspects. Ethereum’s transaction fees (gas fees) plummeted post-upgrade, drawing more investors. Gas fees are like taxes, measured in Gwei, required for secure transactions.

As of November 30, the gas fee for a transaction on the ETH network as of 3 PM is 14 Gwei.

When Ethereum’s on-chain value grows, presenting opportunities, investors flock, driving gas fees up. This typically occurs during market upswings, peaking at all-time highs.

Between 2023 and 2050, Ethereum’s price will most likely follow the bullish outlook and aim for the six-digit territory. The lowest price point is $16,092.58, and the highest price of Ether is $145,915.83.

Ethereum Price Analysis: ETH Rallies As Sell Signals Emerge

Ethereum price flashes a sell signal on the daily chart due to the non-conformity between the price and the Relative Strength Index (RSI). When the price produces higher highs and RSI sets up lower highs, it denotes that momentum is lacking. Such moves are often undone as reality hits. ETH is in such a situation where the hype has not died down. Most investors assume that this is a show of strength after months of lackluster performance.

While it may be true, the on-chain metric reveals that it might not be the case.

Santiment’s 30-day Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) indicator hints that unrealized profits are climbing and could pose a threat. This index tracks the average profit/loss of investors who purchased ETH in the past month. A high positive value shows that many investors are sitting on unrealized profits, which is a sell signal. These investors cover their gains by selling, triggering a correction. 

For Ethereum price, the 30-day MVRV hitting 13% to 22% is that danger zone, where price has often reversed in the past year repeatedly. Now that this indicator is inside this zone, it likely adds to the bearish divergence sell signal and hints that it could resolve, leading to a correction.

All in all, investors can expect ETH to correct in November or early December. For the rest of the year, aka in December, ETH will most likely kickstart an uptrend to $4,000 and be a top contender to most altcoins and eye a retest of $5,000.

If it is strength that ETH is displaying, then there shouldn’t be a correction and should see Ethereum price climb higher. A retest of $4,000 psychological level should be next and would invalidate this short-term bearish thesis.

Mantra Team Responds As The OM Token Price Crashes Over 80% In 24 Hours

Published

on


The Mantra team has addressed the crypto community following the Mantra (OM) token price crash of over 80% in the last 24 hours. Despite the statement, the community is still concerned that this might have been a rug pull by the team, which controls a huge amount of the token’s total supply.

Mantra Team Responds Following Token Crash

In an X post, the Mantra team assured the community that the token is “fundamentally strong” despite the crash that occurred in the last 24 hours. The team blamed the crash on “reckless liquidations” and denied it had anything to do with the project.

They further assured that this had nothing to do with the team and revealed that they were looking into the Mantra price crash and would share more details about what happened as soon as possible.

In an X post, the project’s co-founder, John Patrick Mullin, further revealed that there was a massive forced liquidation from a large OM investor on a Centralized Exchange (CEX). However, he didn’t reveal whether it was one of the top crypto exchanges.

In another X post, Mullin tried to set the record straight. He stated that they didn’t delete the Telegram channel. He further remarked that the team’s tokens all remain in custody and provided a wallet address (mantra…..quam) for community members to verify this claim.

The Mantra co-founder added that they are actively figuring out why these massive forced liquidations occurred and will provide more information as soon as possible. He assured that they are still here and not going anywhere.

Mantra Price Crashes By Over 80% In 24 Hours

CoinMarketCap data shows that the Mantra price has crashed by over 80% in the last 24 hours. The token sharply dropped from an intra-day high of $6.3 to as low as $0.4. However, it has reclaimed the $1 price level following the team’s statement.

However, amid this statement, some community members still seem convinced that this was a rug pull, as the team controls a huge amount of the token’s supply. Crypto commentator Sjuul described the OM token as the LUNA of this cycle.

He further explained why the community believes the crash was a rug pull, stating that the crash began when a wallet believed to be connected to the team suddenly deposited 3.9 million OM tokens to the OKX crypto exchange. This deposit led to significant selling pressure, which caused the Mantra price to crash.

Besides the token’s crash, the broader crypto market is witnessing a downtrend following US President Donald Trump’s statement in which he debunked reports of an exemption. This comes just a day after the crypto market rebounded following reports that the US president had exempted computers, phones, and chips from his tariffs on China and other countries.

Michael Saylor Hints At Another MicroStrategy Bitcoin Purchase, BTC Price To Rally?

Published

on


MicroStrategy is lacing up for a potential Bitcoin purchase after Michael Saylor flashed the tell-tale buy signal. The incoming purchase will be the company’s first in Q2 after pausing Bitcoin purchases at the start of April in an eyebrow-raising move.

Michael Saylor Flashes Bitcoin Buy Signal

MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor has dropped clues that the software company will continue its Bitcoin accumulation spree. In an X post, Saylor shared MicroStrategy’s portfolio tracker revealing the company’s Bitcoin holdings and valuations.

Michael Saylor’s previous posts sharing Microstrategy’s portfolio tracker over the weekend have resulted in purchases at the start of the week. Investors are lapping up Saylor’s portfolio tracker post and the accompanying caption as cues for a BTC purchase on Monday.

“No tariffs on Orange Dots,” said Saylor, taking a jibe at brewing tariff wars between the US and China.

MicroStrategy had previously halted its Bitcoin purchase spree at the start of April leading to a slump in MSTR price. At the time, there was significant chatter that MicroStrategy may be forced to offload its Bitcoin holdings to cover obligations following a dip in prices.

Per the portfolio tracker, MicroStrategy holds 528,185 BTC on its balance sheet valued at $44.7 billion. Michael Saylor hinting at a potential Bitcoin purchase follows a small dip in prices with BTC holding the $83K mark.

Will Bitcoin Price Rally?

Saylor’s hint at buying Bitcoin has triggered a small bump in prices as the top cryptocurrency surpassed $83K. However, an actual purchase will trigger a significant price action for BTC in line with previous accumulations.

MicroStrategy’s last Bitcoin purchase of 22,048 BTC jolted the markets in line with investors’ expectations. However, there are fears that macroeconomic events like the US-China tariff war may affect a potential BTC rally following MicroStrategy’s incoming purchase.

Bitcoin price has rebounded after a previous bloodbath, sparking fresh optimism in the markets. Crypto Joao Wedson predicts that Bitcoin is not out of the woods yet and a grim drop to $65K is still a possibility for the top cryptocurrency.

“We’re not ruling out the possibility of the price dipping below $65K, as several metrics point to that region as strong support – such as the True Market Mean Price and Alpha Price, both sitting exactly around $64,700,” said Wedson.

Crypto analyst Doctor Profit warns that a BTC price drop to these levels may force MicroStrategy to sell MSTR to avoid liquidation.

Shiba Inu Price on The Verge of Breaking $0.00002

Published

on


The memecoin ecosystem has joined the latest revival in the broader market, with the Shiba Inu price now in the spotlight. The memecoin has reset its bearish outlook and will break crucial price milestones in the coming days.

For Shiba Inu, the death cross formation was confirmed on April 6 when the price dropped from $0.00001232 to a low of $0.00001030.

Shiba Inu Price Golden Cross Confirmed

Market data shows that the SHIB price is gradually disappearing from its earlier consolidation trend. At the time of writing, the coin’s price was changing hands for $0.00001249, up by 2.14% in 24 hours. 

SHIB recovered after trading at a low price of $0.00001205 to a daily high of $0.00001265 before settling at the current level. This price boost comes as the SHIB burn rate jumped 1000% in early trading, setting the memecoin on a possible revival path.

The SHIB/USDT 4h chart confirms a golden cross pattern for the memecoin. This pattern is formed when the short-term Moving Average switches above the longer-term moving average.

Although this pattern is fully formed on the 4-hour chart, it is yet to form on the daily chart. However, with the current momentum, a confirmed breakout is possible. Already, the token has displaced Hedera and now ranks as the 17th largest cryptocurrency.

Shibarium Catalyst for Price Rebound

Different ecosystem factors can boost the price of Shiba Inu in the long term. One of these factors is closely tied to the outlook of Shibarium and its associated Layer-2 scaling solution.

As reported earlier by CoinGape, the Shibarium 200 million addresses milestone is near. If the network attains this landmark, it will show a clear sign of growing adoption, a move that might boost its token valuation.

Already, Shibarium has broken the 1 billion total transaction milestone. Should the Shiba Inu network continue to record organic growth, its chances of outranking Dogecoin is higher.

Amid the ongoing boost, the question remains how high the memecoin could soar. Drawing on this, a potential SHIB retest of its ATH of $0.00008844 is possible moving forward. While it will require as much as a 710% growth from current levels, SHIB can print this uptick, drawing on its historical trend.
