That's why AVAX is up 14% today


 

The cryptocurrency market has bounced back from its recent slump, with Bitcoin and other leading cryptocurrencies rallying right now.

The broader cryptocurrency market has done well over the past 24 hours. Bitcoin crossed $ 48,000 for the first time this week. Ether and the other leading cryptocurrencies have also rallied.

However, one of the biggest performers among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization is Avalanche's AVAX. The coin has gained more than 14% in the last 24 hours, outperforming the other leading cryptocurrencies.

The rally is fueled by news that BitGo, one of the largest cryptocurrency custodians, has added AVAX. The addition of AVAX to the BitGo platform means more institutional investors will get access to the cryptocurrency. Mike Belshe, CEO of BitGo, said:

“ Institutional investors can now access AVAX within the most secure custody offering on the market, and tens of millions of home users have the potential to gain secure access through the exchanges and platforms based on our technology. "

An overview of important levels

Thanks to the introduction of AVAX in BitGo, the AVAX / USD 4-hour chart is currently one of the most bullish charts in the crypto space. The technical indicators of the coin show that AVAX is currently doing extremely well.

AVAX's MACD line crossed the neutral zone a few hours ago, indicating a strong uptrend in the cryptocurrency. The RSI of 61 also shows that AVAX is moving towards the overbought territory. At the time of writing, AVAX is trading at $ 117 per coin, above its 50-day simple moving average.

What you can expect

If current market momentum is maintained, AVAX could attempt to break the first major resistance level at USD 125 in the coming hours. In the event of a sustained uptrend, AVAX could hit the $ 130 mark before the end of the day.

However, if the bear market regains control, AVAX could attempt to defend its first major support level at $ 110. Unless there is a massive sell-off, AVAX should stay above 100 for a short time.

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...
