December 21 BTCUSD BingX Chart Analysis and Today's HeadlineBingX’s Bitcoin Chart
Bitcoin is up 1.65% over the last 24 hours and rose to an intraday high of $17,061.06. The largest cryptocurrency attempted to break above the 20-day exponential moving average (EMA) ($16,985), but the price was unable to sustain above the level, indicating that the sentiment remains negative and traders are selling on rallies. If the price stays below the 20-day EMA for another few days, that could mean the bulls lose the short-term advantage and the price could remain stuck between $16,000 and $17,000 for a few more days.

For Crypto to "Win", it Has to Solve its Own ProblemsThe idea of "smart investing" comes with the assumption that the market rewards reason and punishes irrationality in the long-term. What they don't tell you, though, is that the opposite is often true in the short-term. If you want to make money, more often than not you do have to have the discipline to move contrary to what most are doing.
It's been almost a decade since I started getting into this stuff but the above still seems to hold true. Crypto has been mostly flat for about 6 months now, but has stayed mostly stable. The last bull run had a similar pattern where it climbed to new highs (BTC $4000→$16000, ETH $100→$1400) then went back down to where it was prior. (And stayed that way for a few years.)
The projects that were diligently working on their product even after the dip ended up reaping the rewards of the 2020 rally and did very well for themselves. The rivalries between Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, Tezos, Cardano, Ripple, EOS, etc. were there even back in 2018, but the arguments were mostly about technical differences and felt less “personal”. This time, a lot of arguments you see on social media have more personal, political, ideological slants - a sign of the irrationality of mainstream money having arrived, perhaps.
For what it’s worth, despite the FTX scandals and the very negative media coverage of crypto in recent weeks, the price hasn't really moved all that much. Chances are good that the ones that were going to leave are already gone and we're only left with the ones who are in it for the long-haul. While the talking heads gripe about their losses in public, the builders will continue to build, pushing the industry where it needs to be for the future to come. That is the hope, anyway.
--
Long-term strategies only work if you're willing to wait at least one market cycle since the system needs time to work itself out - and I haven’t seen any exceptions to this rule, thus far. But having been through 3 crypto winters already, I’m starting to wonder what’s really taking so long for us to get to where we need to be - the “big ideas” in crypto (transparency, accountability, partnership automation) can already be done with distributed ledgers, but the industry has been slow to adapt to it, to say the least. The problem is that we're not really utilizing blockchain technologies the way we should be: case in point, when you look at all the people in the media and social media talking about how much money they’re making, how do we know if what they’re saying is actually true? We have no idea - we’re just taking their word for it, and now we’re finding out that many of them we’re just trying to lie and grift their way to the top. Whatever happened to "verify, not trust"?
Having gotten too used to low interest rates, the fiat markets are poised to be in big trouble over the next few years - if not more. The trends do say that when an economic system goes into disarray, crypto adoption tends to go up. But in order for that to happen, the crypto community does need to convince the world that it's safer to park their money in coins rather than fiat - which, if we're being honest - we're not quite there yet.
But unlike fiat institutions that are saddled with legacy and protectionist frameworks, crypto has the tools to fix itself if it wanted to - the advantage of being a new industry that has the energy and flexibility to adapt. The current irony is that crypto is suffering from the very problems it poised to solve - but a lot of it is holdovers of bad habits from Web2 and traditional fiat. You could probably argue the SBF's actions was a product of the fiat world, not crypto - there's a reason why there are those on the “inside” trying to protect him now. But FTX is also a preview, in a way, of what's to come to the fiat worlds as we head further into the recession - what they do to SBF could be them next - which is why they feel like they need to protect him at all costs, despite the blatancy of his misdeeds.
In a way, SBF did the industry a favor in getting the skeletons out of the closer earlier than later. For fiat, the tide is only just starting to pull. Crypto will either set the new standards for transparency, accountability, and decentralized governance - or it’s going to fall into old habits again and go to 0. (There is no reason for people to use crypto if it’s just going to be Web2.1 - the incumbents have that covered already.) It’s going to be an interesting ride over the next few years, either way.

Ren DAO to Vote on Plan to Mint New Funding Tokens
The Ren community, which oversees a DeFi protocol that issues wrapped crypto assets, is considering the minting of new tokens to raise capital after the collapse of Alameda Research left the project without access to its funds. The proposal proposes four options for minting amounts, including 50 million, 100 million, 150 million or 200 million REN tokens, and a fifth option to reject the entire plan. At the current token price, Ren could raise from $4 million and $17 million. As previously reported, Ren stated that due to the bankruptcy of Alameda Research, the funds provided to the Ren development team will only last until the fourth quarter. Ren is negotiating with investors to continue to promote development and plans to launch Ren 2.0 earlier than expected.

BTC - Trend-Following Setup! 📈Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
As per my last analysis (attached on the chart), BTC rejected the the 18k resistance and upper red trendline of the channel.
Now What?
We are still overall bullish trading inside the rising channel, and we currently entered a correction movement.
As BTC approaches the lower bound / lower red trendline, we will be looking for buy setups.
And this lower trendline also intersects with the previous highs marked in gray which makes the zone stronger.
As per my trading style:
As Bitcoin approaches the lower purple circle zone, I will be looking for bullish reversal setups on lower timeframes (like a double bottom pattern, trendline break , and so on...)
We would be overall bullish, UNLESS we break below the orange zone, in this case a movement till the lower bound of the range (around 15500) would be expected.
Which scenario do you think is more probable and why?
Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!

The U.S. Federal Reserve raised interest rates by half a percentage point on Wednesday and projected at least an additional 0.75 percent of increases in borrowing costs by the end of 2023. Bitcoin is down 0.39% over the last 24 hours and fell to an intraday low of $17,565.00. The largest cryptocurrency rose above the $18,000 price level today, but the bulls are not able to hold the price above it, suggesting the sellers remain active at a higher level and investors are worried about the future outlook of the U.S. economy. If the BTC/USDT pair remains above the 20-day MA, the bulls will attempt to push the price above the $18,000 price level.

This is a Gann study always…DCA safely Link has great potential
1EARTH PATTERN BREAKOUT!BULLISH PATTERN CONFIRMED (IN MY OPINION)
I see the psychology of market cycle having restarted and that means a drastic increase with the fools rally subsequent fall and buy time!
Look of the psychology of market cycle and the similarity it has to the current chart. I see this passing one cent before Christmas so buy and hold is my game plan.
This is my idea and my opinion not financial advise! Remember #DYOR and you have to sell to make profit and the reverse is true.
#1earth breakout is here in my findings.

Crypto collective intelligence platform to price illiquid assetsWhile the valuation of tokens on-chain and on DEX/CEX exchanges is easily achieved through a traditional order book or various AMMs, there are still massive problems valuing NFTs, pre-IDOs/IPOs, secondary tokens and other illiquid assets. The problem goes so far that even in traditional finance, valuing illiquid assets is usually costly, subjective and involves a lot of work. Lithium addresses the issue of unavailable pricing information of illiquid assets by bringing in accurate pricing through collective intelligence and tokenomics. Lithium is applicable to both digital and real world assets, all Price Seekers have to do is to submit their enquiry attached with a bounty offer to receive genuine pricing information from Price Experts who in turn, are incentivized by our platform’s tokenomics.
Dates to remember:
Testnet product release (Matic): Target Launch Jun 30th, 2022
Mainnet Beta product release (Matic): Target Launch Sep 30th, 2022
Investors:
Almaeda research, Pantera, FBG, Petrock, and much more known VCs.
About 25% of the tokens are already in circulation, the remaining 75% will be elicited over the next 4 years, including staking rewards as an incentive for participation in pricing.. We are currently (to this date) 50% below the seed price (0.003$).
Potential:
The idea and potential to fill a gap in the market that both DeFi and the traditional world are truly unique. The core team has specific knowledge and experience for this project. It is also that the team, with its very many known investors, has a very large network, with extensive ressourecn and enough capital to make ends meet over the next few years. As we are currently below the seed price, the risk/reward ratio here is more than good. It's quite unusual to get into a promising project below seed price of known brands such as Pantera.
Short-term:
TP: 0,003, 0,0045, 0,006, 0,01,
Mid-term:
0,03, 0,06 , 0,1
Long-term
0,15 , 0,20, 0,50
This is not a recommendation to buy or sell or trade $LITH tokens. Do always your own research and never invest more than you can afford to lose. This is not an investment advise.

ETH 2.0 : What Upgrades Are Next After the Merge?Hello guys
thanks god for being live to create another post for you dears
Today i will explaine what happen after Ethereum merge upgrade?
and im going to summarize about each step.
Ethereum Merged successfully on Sept15 but more upgrades are coming to the network.
Shanghai update , The Surge, the Verge, the Purge, and Splurge are up next.
Lets see what we have:
Shanghai update
Over the next six months the next important update to the Ethereum network is going to be the Shangai upgrade.
This particular update will allow validators (the ETH owners who help secure the blockchain) to withdraw a portion of their staked ether and rewards.
There are 14.7 million tokens locked on Ethereum’s Beacon Chain, in return for a 4.1% annual yield, according to the Ethereum Foundation website.
Altogether, those tokens are currently worth $19.12 billion.
Stakers are responsible for confirming and verifying transactions on the blockchain.Each validator is required to stake a minimum of 32 ETH.
Shanghai will also seek to lower transaction costs on layer 2 (L2), a separate blockchain such as Optimism or Arbitrum,
that helps Ethereum to scale, by reducing data costs on the main blockchain itself.
The Surge
While the Merge’s number one goal was to reduce Ethereum’s energy usage (which it did by up to 99.5%) the Surge, the next significant upgrade, is expected to bring a new feature called “sharding” in 2023.
“Sharding splits a blockchain’s entire network into smaller partitions, known as ‘shards'”, said crypto analyst Miles Deutscher.
“This will significantly increase the network’s scalability.”
According to the Ethereum Foundation, “sharding” will boost network capacity, cut costs and improve transaction speeds.
It “provides secure distribution of data storage requirements, enabling rollups to be even cheaper, and making nodes easier to operate,” it said.
The Verge
The Verge is an upgrade that is expected to drastically reduce Ethereum`s reliance on nodes as a store of history and data.
It will introduce so-called “verkle trees“, “a powerful upgrade to Merkle proofs that allow for much smaller proof sizes,” Deutscher says.
“This will optimise storage on Ethereum and help reduce node size.
Ultimately, this assists Ethereum in becoming more scalable,” he added.
Verkle trees will allow users to become network validators without having to store huge amounts of data on their computers, analysts say.
Crypto security platform Nethermind said “verkle trees” are Bitcoin-inspired systems that will decrease the size of “witnesses by a factor of over 20,
allowing for stateless clients that safely interact with the network.”
According to Vitalik Buterin, the verge will be “great for decentralization,” he said at the Paris conference.
The Purge
The Purge is expected to significantly reduce the amount of space required to store ETH on a hard drive.
This upgrade will eliminate the use of nodes in storing Ethereum history, freeing up space, a constant headache for developers.
“The purge: trying to actually cut down the amount of space you have to have on your hard drive,
trying to simplify the Ethereum protocol over time and not requiring nodes to store history,” said Buterin.
Crypto education platform District 0x explained that “nodes are responsible for verifying the miners’ work and ensuring that consensus rules are followed.”
The best way to do this is to keep a full copy of the Ethereum ledger, making it easy to verify a miner’s work.
“But the Ethereum blockchain is approaching one terabyte of storage so it’s impractical for a regular person to run a node,” it stated.
The Splurge
The final scheduled upgrade is the Splurge.
This carries what is described as miscellaneous but important extras,
“ensuring the network runs smoothly following the previous four upgrades.”
“The design of Ethereum post-Merge is billed to be handlings loads of data which generally calls for improved security across the board,” Eitan Lavi, the ChainPort cofounder, told Be In Crypto.
“Through the evolution of Merkle and Verkle trees as well as another innovative tech that will be introduced with subsequent upgrades, the protocol will be able to support the anticipated data load.”
So wait for more upgrades and ETH will be awsome after this steps...

SOL - 10 or 20 - Which One First?Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, as known as theSignalyst.
SOL has been stuck inside a range between 13 and 15
For the bulls to take over , we need a break above 15.0
For the bears to take over, we need a break below 13.0
PS: By Break, I mean a momentum H4 candle close.
Meanwhile, until the bulls or bears take over, we will be trading the range on lower timeframes.
Which scenario do you think is more likely to happen? and why?

BTC - Bullish Then Bearish? 🔎Hello TradingView Family / Fellow Traders. This is Richard, also known as theSignalyst.
As per my last BTC analysis, we know that BTC has been overall bullish for the last 2 weeks trading inside the red channel.
We would be bullish (short-term) as long as we are trading inside the rising red channel.
For the bulls to take over and start the next bullish impulse upward, we need a break above the gray zone.
As BTC trades higher, the 18k zone is a strong resistance as it is also intersecting with the upper red trendline which acts as a non-horizontal resistance.
So I will be expecting a rejecting there. As per my trading style, I will be zooming in to lower timeframes and looking for any bearish reversal setup to confirm it.
For now, we would be bullish, unless we break below the orange zone, in this case a movement till the lower bound of the range (around 15500) would be expected.
Which scenario do you think is more probable and why?
Always follow your trading plan regarding entry, risk management, and trade management.
Good luck!
