🗞 Parabolic rally ‘a real possibility’ after Ethereum price surges to $547
The price of Ether (ETH), the native cryptocurrency of Ethereum, has surpassed $547. Following the breakout, traders are pinpointing several key resistance levels in the near term.
In the short term, traders generally foresee $600 as the major resistance area for Ether as it marked the beginning of a bearish trend starting in May 2018. As such, $600 could act as an area of interest for sellers.
But, traders also believe that if Ether surpasses $600, it would likely enter the $700 to $900 range. Above it, there is little resistance until the all-time high.
Ethereum's outlook remains positive
The Ethereum network has seen numerous catalysts come into play in recent months.
First, the Ethereum 2.0 network upgrade is progressing, as a large number of Ether continues to flow into the deposit contract address.
“Following in $BTC's footsteps, $ETH has hit a 29-month high of $509. June 21, 2018 was the last time the price was this high for the #2 market cap asset. #Ethereum's top 10 holders rising, combined with coin supply on exchanges, have fueled this rally."
🗞 XRP Rises More Than 30% as Altcoins Piggyback on Bitcoin’s Wave
XRP has surged to 16-month highs, leading a pack of cryptocurrencies all benefiting from bitcoin’s rally toward historic levels.
XRP (XRP, +27.39%), the native asset of the XRP ledger, developed by payment-focused blockchain firm Ripple Labs, climbed to as high as $0.437564 before retreating to $0.413853 at press time, reaching the highest price point since July 2019, according to The CoinDesk 20.
The third-largest cryptocurrency by market value has gained over 33% in the past 24 hours, extending the year-to-date gain to 116%.
*$19,783 reached in December 2017.
“Altcoins are high beta assets and usually move in the same direction as bitcoin, but more,”* trader and analyst Alex Kruger tweeted on Friday. Alternative cryptocurrencies can be considered as leveraged bitcoin plays, according to Kruger.
Bitcoin, the top cryptocurrency by market capitalization, has charted a steep rally from $10,000 to nearly $19,000 in the past eight weeks.
🗞 DeFi Protocol Pickle Finance Hacked For $20 Million
Pickle Finance, a DeFi protocol, was hacked to the tune of almost $20 million.
The hackers’ approach is still unknown, though some analysts are saying it doesn’t resemble a typical flash loan attack.
But why create stablecoins of currencies as damaged as the Argentine peso and Brazilian real, which respectively lost 30% and 20% of their value relative to the dollar in the past year?
The coffers of Pickle Finance, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol with a native token that looks suspiciously like Pickle Rick, of Rick and Morty fame, were drained today of $20 million in what appears to be a hack.
Pickle Finance shifts investors’ money around different DeFi protocols to maximise returns, a little like a traditional robo-advisor.
🗞 USDT Towers Over 30 Stablecoins- Tether's Market Cap Grew by 2 Million Percent in Just Four Years
