Why is Tron up more than 11% today?

 


The cryptocurrency market has been showing mixed performance since the start of the week.


The broader crypto market continues its mixed performance since the start of the week. The market is up less than 1% in the last 24 hours with the total market cap still at $1.7 trillion.


Bitcoin has found it difficult to breach $39,000 despite adding 0.95% to its value over the past few hours. Ether is at risk of falling below $2,800 after losing 0.35% of its value in the past 24 hours.


However, TRX, the native token of the TronDAO ecosystem, is the best performer among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap. TRX has increased in value by more than 11% in the last 24 hours, outperforming the other major cryptocurrencies.


The main catalyst behind TRX's ongoing rally is the upcoming launch of TronDAO's decentralized stablecoin USDD.


Justin Sun, CEO of TronDAO, will present and launch the USDD stablecoin tomorrow, May 5 during a live event .

The TRX/USDT 4 hour chart is the most bullish among the top 20 cryptocurrencies by market cap. The technical indicators show that TRX is currently outperforming the other major cryptocurrencies.


The MACD line is inside the positive zone, which indicates bullish momentum. The 14-day Relative Strength Index of 67 shows that TRX could soon enter overbought territory if the rally continues.


At the time of writing, TRX is trading at $0.07758. TRX is preparing to scale the first major resistance level at $0.7825 and it might do so before the end of the day. However, the $0.0800 resistance level should limit any further upside in the short-term.


On the upside, TRX could break below the first major support level at $0.07326 if the bears regain control. However, it should easily defend the $0.07004 support level for the next few hours and possibly days.

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...
