BTC, BCH, XMR, XTZ and LINK 24180

LINK

XTZ/USD

Tezos (XTZ) is the best performer of the past seven days with a massive jump of over 40%. It shot up after Coinbase announced that it will onboard the cryptocurrency on its professional trading platform, Coinbase Pro. The four-stage process will start with inbound XTZ transfers on August 5. Huobi Wallet tweeted that it will be a Tezos baker and support XTZ in the near future. Blockchain development company Truffle announced that it will add support for the Tezos blockchain protocol in its developer suit. These favorable fundamental news helped the digital currency rake up strong gains. However, can this continue or will the rally peter out after the news-based rally? Let’s analyze the charts.

XTZ/USD

The XTZ/USD pair has formed a cup and handle reversal pattern, which will complete on a breakout and close (UTC time frame) above $1.85. Following the breakout, the target objective is $3.37 and above it $4.20. The moving averages have completed a bullish crossover and the RSI has jumped into positive territory, which suggests that bulls are back in the game.

However, the failure of bulls to close the week near the highest point shows profit booking at higher levels. If the price fails to break out of $1.85, the reversal pattern will not come into play and a few weeks of consolidation between $0.83 and $1.85 are possible.

Traders can buy on a close (UTC time frame) above $1.85 and keep a stop loss of $0.82. Until then, it is better to remain on the sidelines.

LINK/USD

Unlike other major cryptocurrencies, Chainlink (LINK) has been volatile and has been finding a place either among the top losers or the top gainers for the past few weeks. This week, it has again found a place as a top gainer. Oracle announced a partnership with Chainlink, which is a big boost for the project. In other news, Callisto Network announced integration of Chainlink Oracles and Zilliqa tied up with Chainlink to power its smart contracts. While the fundamental news flow has been positive, let’s see what the chart projects.

LINK/USD

The LINK/USD pair has found support at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement levels of $2.0175 for three successive weeks. This makes it an important level to watch on the downside.

On the upside, bulls might face resistance at $2.8498, above which, the pair is likely to pick up momentum and rally towards the lifetime high. Therefore, traders can wait for the price to scale and close (UTC time frame) above $2.8498 before attempting long positions.

If bulls fail to propel the price above $2.8498, the pair might remain range-bound for a few weeks. Our bullish view will be negated if bears sink and sustain the digital currency below $2.0175.

BTC/USD

Bitcoin (BTC) has gained in double digits in the past seven days. The past week saw a flare-up of trade war between China and the U.S. and a rate cut by the U.S. Federal Reserve. Peter Tchir, former Executive Director at Deutsche Bank, said that Bitcoin acts as a lead indicator to hidden geopolitical tensions.

Fundstrat Global Advisors co-founder Tom Lee and a report by research firm Delphi Digital said that dovish policies of central banks will be bullish for the leading cryptocurrency. On the news that central banks have been buying a record quantity of gold, Anthony Pompliano said that central banks will start hedging their assets with Bitcoin if they “find out about the non-correlated, asymmetric upside profile of Bitcoin.”

Can Bitcoin extend its rally in the next few weeks? Let’s find out.

BTC/USD

In strong uptrends, the pullbacks are usually arrested at the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level of the entire rally. The BTC/USD pair found support between the 38.2% and 50% retracement levels, which is a positive sign. Both moving averages are sloping up and the RSI is in positive territory. This suggests that bulls are firmly in command.

The up-move might face some resistance at the downtrend line, above which, the pair can retest the recent highs of $13,973.50. This level might see some profit-booking, but once crossed, we expect buyers to pile in and push the price toward $17,208.84.

Our bullish view will be invalidated if the price turns down from the downtrend line and plummets below $9,080. That will indicate selling at higher levels and might catch the bulls off guard.

BCH/USD

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) celebrated its second birthday on Aug. 1 and ended up as the fourth-best performer of the week. Can the rally continue?

BCH/USD

The BCH/USD pair is rising inside an ascending channel. It remains in an uptrend as long as it stays inside the channel. The bulls will now try to push the price towards the resistance line of the channel. A breakout of the channel will result in a sharp upward move. The traders can initiate positions as suggested in our earlier analysis.

Contrary to our assumption, if the pair turns down and plummets below the channel, it can plummet to $227.70 and below it to $166.25. Both moving averages have flattened out and the RSI is close to the midpoint, which points to a probable consolidation for a few weeks.

XMR/USD

Monero (XMR) rounded up the list with gains of just over 8%. Can the cryptocurrency extend its gains in the coming weeks? Let’s have a look at its chart.

XMR/USD

The bears broke below the support at $81.4151 in the past week, but could not capitalize on the breakdown. The XMR/USD pair has quickly bounced back above the level, which shows demand at lower levels. Both moving averages have flattened out and the RSI is just above 50, which points to a range-bound action for a few weeks.

If the price breaks out of $90.4999, it can rally to $107 and above it to $120. The traders can buy if the price closes (UTC time frame) above $90.4999 for a day and keep a stop loss of $71. The stops can be raised to breakeven as the pair reaches $107.

Contrary to our expectation, if the cryptocurrency reverses direction and plunges below $71, it will be a negative sign. Such a move can drag it lower to $60.

Hover is Ready to Launch Its Public Sale on the DAO Maker 11556

Hover, the non-custodial lending and borrowing protocol from the Kava ecosystem, will launch its public sale on DAO Maker on February 14th. The market launch and the public sale follow the success of Hover’s increasing APY Genesis Pools sprint that runs from November 2023 through February 2024 and generated over 15.3M USD total value locked across $KAVA, $ATOM, and $USDt pools. Hover announced that those who deposit to their Genesis Pools before the market launch on February 21st will keep receiving increased APY for 4 more weeks – until March 18th.

With over 100 successful projects and $42 million raised in its portfolio, DAO Maker is a leader in launching and accelerating web3 startups. Hover’s launch on DAO Maker proves that Hover is in for the long-term game, committing to building trustworthy DeFi solutions. This milestone follows multiple audits and security checks Hover and its partners have undergone to build a secure and reliable platform. As a result, DAO Maker opens Hover to a much broader audience beyond the Kava ecosystem.

“The interest and support of Hover’s Genesis Pools have far exceeded our expectations and given the Hover community an appetite for a successful public sale,” said Aileen Dauz, Core Contributor at Hover. “Launching on DAO Maker is a strategic decision that hopes to bring more trusted partners and supporters looking for long-term DeFi solutions. Through Hover’s public launch, we pledge to build an institutional-grade, secure, and inclusive DeFi solution for everyone.”

The public sale of Hover’s native $HOV token, constituting 3.6% of $HOV’s total supply, is an invitation for the public to benefit from the unique tokenomics model built by Hover. Unlike numerous non-custodial lending and borrowing platforms, where traders typically seek the most advantageous deals, Hover provides a more balanced and user-centric experience. Hover’s tokenomics model rewards user loyalty and offers eight tiers of benefits, such as liquidation and borrowing rebates based on the amount of $HOV staked.

“DAO Maker strives to work with projects that make DeFi more accessible and secure, which is the essence of Hover,” said Chris Zaknun, Founder of DAO Maker. “We are excited to accelerate Hover by launching $HOV on our platform as we see the potential for this project in Kava and beyond.”

MONSTRO’S DEGENZ! Aims to Make DeFi Fun AND Profitable Again Through Transparency and Innovation 12790

2024 01 23 16 09 30

Earn 2-6% Daily with NO WAY TO LOSE – Guaranteed!

Since its launch on December 27th, 2023, MONSTRO’S DEGENZ!, the latest addition to Monstro’s Universe, has created a significant buzz in the DeFi space and taken in an astounding $1.1M USD in BNB deposits. Renowned for upending traditional approaches, DEGENZ! turns the promise of “too good to be true” daily passive income (2-6%!) into a sustainable reality, steering clear of the problems that have plagued similar ventures.

Recognizing the inherent challenges in “ROI dApps,” which often falter due to dependency on continuous capital influx or fall prey to fraudulent activities, the Monstro team has instituted a robust strategy. This plan is grounded in an understanding of the typical pitfalls for investors in ROI dApps and introduces innovative solutions from the outset.

MONSTRO’S DEGENZ! distinguishes itself through a unique dual-phase approach. Phase One encapsulates the excitement of daily earnings, blending game theory and strategic decision-making. Participants face intriguing choices: reinvesting for multipliers, claiming earnings, or purchasing NFTs to enhance earning rates.

As the influx of fresh capital eventually subsides, DEGENZ! seamlessly transitions into Phase Two. This phase involves halting new deposits and issuing NFT “receipts” to wallets yet to claim their promised profit (ranging from 150% to 300%). These receipts enable holders to earn real, external yield from farming and liquidity operations, paid in USDC weekly. This approach, successfully implemented since August 2023 with Monstro’s Farmz!, leverages a 30% deposit fee reinvested in DEXes like Trader Joe, Orca, Uniswap V3, Sparkswap, and Alienbase.

“It’s not about if, but when you’ll profit. This assurance sets us apart from other projects in the space, a claim few can make,” asserts 0xVarius, a co-founder of Monstro’s Universe.

Enhancing the offering, DEGENZ! features an aggressive referral program. Referrers can earn 5-20% based on the total deposit volume they introduce, with an innovative “cashback” option for their downline. This user-friendly feature allows referrers to automatically share rewards, facilitated by the smart contract, embodying Monstro’s ethos of community and ease.

Deposit today and remember, you’re still early!

About Monstro’s Farmz!

Monstro’s Farmz! epitomizes passive income, boasting nearly $500,000 USD in Total Value Locked (TVL) and nearly $230,000 USD disbursed to its community in just five months. The platform invites users to effortlessly watch their earnings grow, with USDC payouts every Wednesday. Emphasizing transparency and accountability, all contracts, wallets, and positions are publicly accessible, reflecting the team’s commitment to absolute openness.

About Monstro’s Universe

Monstro’s Universe is crafted for both thrill-seekers and astute investors, blending captivating characters with the promise of steady, passive income. It’s a realm where DeFi is not just profitable, but also enjoyable. Regardless of your investment goals, Monstro’s Universe offers treasures tailored to your ambitions.

$ZKL token realizes high-performance DeFi through zkLink’s cutting-edge zero-knowledge rollup infrastructure and newly launched Nexus platform

“We look forward to presenting the community with an asset that allows them to help shape the zero-knowledge rollup ecosystem’s direction in 2024,” commented Vince Yang, Co-founder, zkLink. “As outlined in our 2024 Technical Roadmap, we have several key developments planned to encourage our community to be more involved in building dApps that enable smoother, lower-cost DeFi experiences.”

It will be a non-inflationary ERC20 token issued on the Ethereum Mainnet with token supply capped at 1 billion. $ZKL will serve as the default payment token for ZK proof generation services and users can obtain DAO voting rights by staking to obtain veZKL.

Along with announcing the upcoming $ZKL token sale, zkLink recently released details on major upcoming updates to its protocol, highlighted in the 2024 Technical Roadmap. Users can learn more in zkLink’s new whitepaper about how multi-chain ZK-Rollup infrastructure serves as a solution to unify fragmented liquidity across ecosystems and return pricing power to decentralized exchanges (DEXs).
