Ethereum is catching up - Ether is setting out on a "parabolic" run on Bitcoin



Ethereum ( ETH ) could soon show a "parabolic" upswing compared to its big brother Bitcoin and, in direct comparison, even jump into new record heights.


Ether soon jumping to a new record?

As the data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView show, ETH / BTC is currently almost at a three-year high, with an even clear upward leap on the horizon.


The direct comparison between Ether and Bitcoin ( BTC ) is one of the success stories in the current weak phase of the market.


A narrative that the crypto trader Galaxy gratefully took up on December 3 , when he reiterated his optimistic forecast for the second largest crypto currency by saying that ETH / BTC would with another jump the already strong performance of the past weeks and months will top again.


"I've been observing and analyzing the price development of ETH / BTC for years with a long-term view, and now the moment has finally come," he writes exuberantly on Twitter. He adds:


“ETH is now preparing for a parabolic jump. Wait and see how great it will be soon. "

This week, ETH / BTC climbed to a price of 0.085 BTC for the first time since May . Above this mark, only the particularly successful year 2018 stands before the rise into new record spheres. At that time, market values ​​of up to 0.15 BTC were even reached on some crypto exchanges.


In comparison with the US dollar, Ethereum is currently showing similar strength. After several records were broken at the beginning of November, the second-placed cryptocurrency was roughly around 5,000 US dollars at the time of going to press.


“In theory, this should be the crux of the matter, at which sustained strength is underpinned and continued with a solid structure,” says crypto expert Pentoshi in view of this balance sheet .


Although not all indicators give the green light for the jump above the US $ 5,000 mark, ETH / USD has recently strengthened at US $ 4,550.


Long-term investors are getting restless

For Bitcoin, meanwhile, the picture doesn't look quite so rosy.


After several weeks of poor performance, even the most confident experts are slowly becoming pessimistic, although most metrics continue to give hope in the long term .


Indeed , as Cointelegraph reported , the on-chain data gives little cause for concern, although sentiment is slowly turning , especially among long-term investors.


The highly respected sentiment barometer, the Crypto Fear & Greed Index, is currently showing “fear” again, as it only stands at 31 out of a possible 100 points.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
