After reaching an all-time high, will NEAR continue to decline?

 


The cryptocurrency market started the new year the same way it ended in 2021, with some coins performing well while others continued to underperform.

The cryptocurrency market has seen mixed performances in the past few weeks. Bitcoin and the other major cryptocurrencies have underperformed, while some altcoins have rallied.

Bitcoin is still trading below the $ 50,000 level and has had a hard time breaking the main resistance level above $ 48,000. Ether is trading above the $ 3,800 mark and has continued to struggle to break the $ 4,000 resistance level for the past few weeks.

However, one of the top performers in the market over the past few weeks is NEAR. The native token of the Near protocol reached a new all-time high of $ 17.60 a few hours ago, after having gained more than 20% in value in the past few days.

However, the price of NEAR has fallen more than 5% since hitting its new all-time high. The value of the cryptocurrency could drop below the $ 14 mark in the coming hours as it drifts away from its all-time high.

The current downtrend in the broader market could affect the performance of NEAR and its value could fall further in the coming hours.

An overview of important levels

The NEAR / USD 4-hour chart is still bullish despite the recent slump in cryptocurrency. The technical indicators show that NEAR is doing great after hitting an all-time high, but it could decline further should the bulls fail to regain control.

The MACD line is above the neutral zone, indicating strong positive momentum. Meanwhile, the RSI of 55 shows that there is currently still buying pressure on NEAR. If current market momentum is maintained, the value of NEAR could fall below the first major support level of $ 15.63 in the coming hours.

In the event of prolonged bearish performance, NEAR could soon decline towards the USD 13.40 support level. However, should the bulls regain control, NEAR would hit a new all-time high above $ 18 in the next few hours. NEAR will need the support of the broader cryptocurrency market if it has a chance to break the psychological $ 20 mark anytime soon.

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...
