Ethereum Price Climbs Above $3,000: Analysts Wait for Retest

 


The cryptocurrency market continues to climb higher on March 23, despite headwinds from multiple quarters. Global conflicts, rising inflation and economic uncertainty are currently weighing on the financial markets and underscoring the importance of a diversified investment portfolio.


Altcoins have seen some gains over the past few days. Leading the way, Ether ( ETH ) managed to clear its key support and resistance zone at $3,000 where the bulls are now scrambling for the upper hand.

What do analysts say about the further development of Ether and can one expect further increases in the short term or not?


$3,125 needs testing

Crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe provided a general overview of recent price developments. He uploaded the following chart , which shows "Ethereum Climbs Up After Holding Crucial Level".


Van de Poppe commented:


"Seems to me we're going to test $3,125 next."

Not all traders are convinced that a higher price target can be directly considered. Twitter user "Chartpunk" uploaded the chart below, which shows Ethereum's 10-day uptrend. He warned against entering an overheated market.

Chartpunk said:


"Now is not the time to get into FOMO. If you're looking to jump on the trend, be sure to retest the entry zone on this chart."

On Chartpunk's chart, the $2,975 area is marked as a re-entry point.


Sentiment neutral to $3,287

Crypto trader and Twitter user "Mad Max Crypto" was more dovish about recent price action and uploaded the chart below. A "neutral tendency until the mark of 3,287 US dollars is exceeded" is drawn on this.

The cryptocurrency consultant "Altcoin Sherpa" also shares this forecast in a chart that he uploaded . This highlights Ether's series of higher lows and higher highs.


Altcoin Sherpa said:


“I think one could argue that the market structure is being broken to the upside on the shorter timeframes. But personally I'm waiting for the higher levels. Regardless, fundamentals for ETH 2.0 will be strong pretty soon.”

Possible drop to $2,600

Crypto trader Follis has highlighted which levels to watch below. He has uploaded the chart below which shows the possibility of a drop to $2,600.


“However, most hourly windows are bullish and I expect more gains unless we close below $2,800. The $2,600 area will be interesting if there is a dip. The 0.79 Fibonacci level has works well in this macro range."

The total market cap of all cryptocurrencies is now $1.919 trillion and Bitcoin’s market share is 41.7 percent.

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...
