🚩 #Bitcoin vs. #Ethereum, Battle of the Titans!

👉 #BTC & #ETH are both crypto giants, one was the first digital currency and the other was the first crypto to launch the all-important smart contract. These are the top two cryptocurrencies by market cap (nearly 2/3 of the total market dominance) and tend to be the yardsticks against which all other cryptos are measured.

👉 2020-2021 Year-Over-Year Performance:
🔹$ETH = +695%
🔹$BTC = +205%

👉 #ETHBTC Take-Profit Targets:
▫️Buying Entry on 23/09: 0.07 BTC
🔹TP1: 0.08 ✅ +14.29% /68-day 🚀

🚩Numbers of the Day‼️
Crypto Total Market Cap has risen above $2 trillion for the first time since May as $BTC rebounds.
🔹$BTC => $44,400
🔹$ETH => $4,400
🔹#CRYPTOCAP => $2.10 Trillions
Note: 12-JAN highest price.

🚩"Top Trending Cryptos" that well resisted to the falling market pressure while still remaining well oriented, and which were able to break(out) strong resistances, key price levels, or even to Hit a New ATH for each #ROSEBTC & #NEARBTC. IMHO, this week, some have already almost won their ticket to be part of the selection of the best bullish "price structure" for the whole year until December 2022.
🔹#Cosmos $ATOM
🔹#Fantom $FTM
🔹#Harmony $ONE
🔹#Oasis_Network $ROSE
🔹#Near $NEAR

⚠️ I will share the "Crypto Total Market Cap Chart" below this post, as I have exceeded the maximum number of characters/signs allowed in one post, and therefore any attachment is rejected!

🔅After their dip 48 hours ago, #BTC has already recovered $5,000 and surpassed the $38,000 level, while #ETH has done a bit better with a 17% rise to $2,550.

😎 I feel kind of amused after all of those who hoped to see $BTC crash to 29k, and spent their weekend spreading fear in social media network to scare newbies and small investors even further, to increase panic. I just hope people won't forget your deeds, guys!

Numbers of the Day‼️

🔹#BTC »»» $43,000
🔹#ETH »»» $3,000
🔹#TOTALCAP »»» $1,9T

We will now have to hold these levels....

💚 It may be the "Gem of the Month", even though this #DeFi project was launched in late 2017.

🔅#Request_Network is a decentralized protocol for all payment requests & accounting, offering #Web3 payment services with 70+ cryptos & stablecoins, 10+ fiat currencies and on 10+ blockchains.

▫️Customers: 1400+ companies incl. #AAVE, #Sandbox, #Maker, #Gnosis, #TheGraph, #Fantom, #Ryde, #Dataunion.

▫️#Request has a fully diluted market cap, as 100% of 999,876,008 $REQ tokens supply are in circulation

▫️$REQ is one of the survivors of the Top100 from 2017 to still have a very active Dev team who has continued to increase their project Ecosystem (#ETH #BSC #Polygon #Fantom #Near #Celo) & that has always invested more in their development than in marketing.

▫️Christophe Lassuyt & Etienne Tatur, founders of $REQ are both French & based in Singapore.

🚩$REQ #REQUSD
🔹Buy Entry Zone > $0.24 - $0.28
🔹TP1: $0.36 (To pay yr S/L)
🔹TP2: $0.49 (Target pattern)
🔹TP3: $0.64 (Fib 38.2)
🔹TP4: $0.78
🔹TP5: $0.92 (Fib 61.8)

🔅Personally, I I'm closely monitoring on these 5 strong crypto assets. I have already reinforced #Cosmos at $19, $17, & $16 per $ATOM token.

▫️#BTC: $33,000
▫️#ETH: $2,400
▫️#SOL: $74
▫️#ATOM: $15
▫️#DOT: $12

What about you? What crypto would you want to invest in if prices go down a bit more?

⚡️#ETH Got the Pullback‼️

I must admit that today $1,200 for 1 $ETH shocked me 🥳, but this bearish excess and its red-wick-candle which went to overlap at the same level as its 2018 high price, remains very consistent with its price structure, and above all confirms what all traders love to see in its chart: a #PULLBACK.

The Alts market will definitely suffer from this strong and long downtrend which will take time to recover, but be sure that $BTC and $ETH will rebound stronger due to their current #PULLBACK in formation which must to confirm a current uptrend, unlike a #CORRECTION in wave in a,b,c that would have confirmed a trend reversal.

⚡️Ethereum Classic Gains 60% in One Week, Here is Why The Merge Could Push its Price Higher

▫️Vitalik B. says #ETH to be 55% complete post-merge

▫️The #Merge is expected to reduce #ETH’s energy usage by almost 100%, contribute to making #ETH a deflationary asset, and provide stakers with rewards for securing the network

▫️#ETH Devs announced that the #Merge will tentatively take place during the week of Sept 19

▫️Once the network #ETH #PoW will stop, the network #ETC could witness a mass migration of #ETH miners (estimate about 120,000 ETH miners).

▫️$ETC has breached the 50-EMA, indicating a major revival of bullish momentum, and the 20-EMA just reached top of the daily candle

▫️$ETC has recovered until +122% from its bottom price on June 18, and generated +74% gains since my buy entry at $16.

▫️Trade #ETCUSD
🔹Buy Entry: $16-26
🔹TP1: $33
🔹TP2: $52
🔹TP3: $66 up to $100
⛔️ S/L: Under $14

✨#EthereumClassic Network Hashrate & Difficulty Charts.

👉🏻 Since its July bottom of $13.30, #ETC price has jumped +155% over 2 weeks, reaching $34 today. You should now know the reason, since I have already explained it in detail in my previous posts.

⚡️#Ethereum miners have started the biggest migration ever in crypto to #EthereumClassic, and without waiting for the execution of #ETH #Merge scheduled for mid-September.

▫️What is Ethereum Classic Hashrate?
$ETC hashrate is a calculated numerical value that specifies an estimate of how many hashes are being generated by $ETC miners trying to solve the current #EthereumClassic block or any given block. (Hashrate is represented in Hashes per Second or H/s).

▫️What is Ethereum Classic Difficulty?
$ETC difficulty is a measure of how many hashes (statistically) must be generated to find a valid solution to solve the next #EthereumClassic block and earn the mining reward.

✨Blockchain / Cross-Chain Bridges

▫️What is Bridge?
It's a protocol connecting 2 blockchain ecosystems to enable interactions between them. If you own $BTC but want to participate in DeFi activity on the #ETH network, a blockchain bridge allows you to do that without selling your $BTC.

▫️What Bridges Allow?
🔹The cross-chain transfer of assets & information
🔹Dapps to access the strengths of various blockchains thus enhancing their capabilities.
🔹Users to access new platforms & leverage the benefits of different chains.
🔹Developers from different blockchain ecosystems to collaborate & build new platforms.

▫️2022: 4 Big Bridge Hacks.
🚩February: #Wormhole $320M
🚩March: #Ronin $615M
🚩June: #Harmony $100M
🚩July: #Nomad $165M (amount revised)

▫️What Is Gravity Bridge?
The Gravity Bridge blockchain is the trustless, neutral bridge between #Ethereum and the #Cosmos ecosystem. Built using the #CosmosSDK it uses the validator set to sign transactions, instead of a multi-sig or permissioned set of actors.

✨All about #Ethereum 2.0 (2/2)

🔅What are the key differences between #ETH & #ETH2 ?

Ethereum 2.0 also referred to as "#ETH2" or "#Serenity" will be completed over 3 phases, as follows:

👉🏻 Phase 0: "The Evolutionary Phase"
These changes, which launched in December 2020, introduced users to the "Beacon Chain". This is a new type of blockchain which oversees the entire #ETH ecosystem, moving from a #PoW to #PoS consensus model. It doesn't actually change anything about the #ETH we use today but will be a more secure, energy efficient alternative to the existing #PoW model.

👉🏻 Phase 1: "Sharding"
This next part of the upgrade will see the spread of data from a single large database across several separate database servers. This will ease bottlenecks, increase network bandwidth and allow more transactions to be processed.

👉🏻 Phase 1.5: "Docking"
This final phase of the upgrade, expected in 2022, is when the existing #ETH Mainnet "Docks" or merges with the new $ETH2 Beacon Chain & Sharding system.

🚩#Ethereum Quick Update‼️

✅ Ethereum's Shanghai Upgrade (also known as #Shapella) is completed successfully, and despite some analysts and media announcing a drop in the price of $ETH, Vitalik's token decided to do the opposite with a deserved jump of +6%.

🔹Next upgrade could be the #Purge which will purge the spare, or historical data, from the #ETH network. (Probably around Sept-2023)

🔹Today $ETHUSD hit $2,000 level

🔹The resistance of the 336-day accumulation range is being tested for the second time in 8 months

🔹 H&S pattern neckline broken with +6% jump

🎯 Next targets at $2,250 then $2,700

✅ How to Allocate your Long-Term Investment Portfolio (Crypto)? (1/2)

There's no right or wrong model, so it's important to tune in to what you feel best fits your goals and risk tolerance.

Here is a summary of a very interesting & reliable model I've featured in previous posts, and suggested by Phil from Pro-Indicators.

🔅 There are 6 main Factors/Aspects that define the Ecosystem of any Crypto Project, but all 6 remain impossible to maximize in a single project due to forced trade-offs between each specificity. The good performance of one of the aspects will often be at the expense of one of the others.

● Average Transaction Value #ATV
(Leader: #BTC PoW, 2nd: #ETH)

● Total Value Locked #TVL
(Leader: #ETH PoS)

● Modularity & Interoperability
(Leader: probably #Cosmos)

● Privacy & Difficulty to Track
(Leader: ? )

● Daily Active User #DAU
(Leader: ? )

● Transaction Per Second #TPS
(Leader: ? )

✅ How to Allocate your Long-Term Investment Portfolio (Crypto)? (2/2)

📈 MarketShare Distribution remains asymmetrical as following:
🔹 1st Leader will get at least 50%
🔹 2nd, about 30%
🔸 3rd, 10%
🔸 4th, 3%
🔸 5th, 6th... 1%

👉 This means that you have at least 6 MarketShares Leaders (12 including all second leaders) to find in order to allocate and optimize your portfolio (Crypto).
At this stage, we only know the first 2 with #BTC & #ETH, and probably #COSMOS too.

Have a nice week, #CryptoLovers. 🏖

🏦 BITTREX CRYTO EXCHANGE

⚠️ Bittrex headquarters being in Seattle (US) and having troubles with the SEC for months, I preferred to withdraw the few bags of token from my account. #Bittrex was one my first ever crypto exchanges opened in mid-2017, followed by #Cryptopia, then #Bitfinex.

👉 As I like to be transparent, here are some interested stats from my Bittrex account:

🔸 Total of 113 trades completed between Sept 2017 until early-Jan 2018.

🔸 90% of trades were paired with $ETH, and others 10% with $BTC.

🔸 Total Investment Value: $1,300 USD
🔹28/9/17 $ETH: 4.63 tokens (#ETH: $280 x 4.63 = $1,296)

🔸 Total Withdrawal Value: $5,680 USD (+338% increased):
🔹05/1/18 $ETH: 3 tokens (#ETH: $960 x 3 = $2,880)
🔹04/3/18 $ETC: 74 tokens (#ETC: $30 x 74 = $2,220)
🔹10/8/23 $RDD: 7,150 tokens
🔹10/8/23 $DGB: 25,500 tokens ($200)
🔹15/8/23 $ANT: 59 tokens ($260)
🔹15/8/23 $GLM: 550 tokens ($120)
🔹26/8/23 $OK: 303 tokens

🔸 Here are 3 examples of tokens that could have generated huge profits "if" I had stored them, but at that time I needed liquidity to trade more and more. Afterwards, I also didn't make the best decisions in my selection of tokens to keep for a while.

🔸1,100 Tokens $MANA
🔹Buy: $0.025
🔹Sell: $0.075 (ATH $6 > value $6,600)
🔹Gain: x3 over 38-day
🔹ETH Transaction: Ξ0.00005500 > Ξ0.00016300

🔸1,200 Tokens $ADA
🔹Buy: $0.11
🔹Sell: $0.42 (ATH $3.1 > value $3,720)
🔹Gain: x4 over 14-day
🔹ETH/BTC Transaction: Ξ0.00019500 > ₿0.00002897

🔸50,000 Tokens $DOGE
🔹Buy: $0.0002
🔹Sell: $0.0004 (ATH $0.76 > value $38.000)
🔹Gain: x2 over 18-day
🔹BTC Transaction: ₿0.00000015 > ₿0.00000030

🔸 Last withdrawal of tokens from Bittrex (Aug-2023):
🔹#Aragon > Binance (Staking 1.4%)
🔹#Golem > Binance (Staking 0.35%)
🔹#DigiByte > Atomic Wallet
🔹#Okcash > Wallet Okcash Core v7.0 (Staking)
🔹#ReddCoin > Wallet Reddcoin Core v3.10 (Staking)

👉 The balance sheet remains positive since with $1,300 invested in the exchange, I had already been able to withdraw in crypto the equivalent of $5,000.... and I still have a few bags of tokens for which I don't have much hope, but who knows... #DGB could pump to hit $5 in 2025, isn't!?!! 😂
