In this week’s ‘The Market Report’ presentation, the experts based at Cointelegraph discuss the Ethereum merger and how it could impact the crypto market.
To start things off, we’ve broken down the latest news in the markets this week.
A boom or a purge? Why the merger may not provide the price of Ether (ETH) from “Septembear”. Options data, macroeconomic catalysts, and technical signals suggest that a lower Ether price is on the table despite the consolidation. Ethereum’s native currency, Ether, is not immune to downside risks in September after rising nearly 90% from its low of around $880 in June. Could Ethereum prove the analysts wrong and break through the price after the merger or has the price already been taken into account and we have already seen the price go up by the end of this year?
ETH Merge: Co-founder CoinGecko shares his forked token strategy. Many believe that after Ethereum moves to Proof of Stake (PoS), a faction of Ether (ETH) miners will create a Proof of Work (PoW) fork of the network so they can continue mining. One of the executives believes there are ways that ETH holders can benefit from this upcoming event. Different people expect to trade the merge completely differently to benefit from it. Our experts highlight some of their plans. Tell us how you’re going to do things in the comments sections.
Ethereum got it wrong? Here are 3 signs to watch for while merging. Assuming that Ethereum will only migrate to a fully functional proof of stake (PoS) network after the merger somewhat ignores the risks and effort required to move a $193 billion market capitalization asset and 400 decentralized applications (DApps). This is exactly why it is important to monitor vital network conditions for anyone wishing to trade the event. Our Marcel Pechman lays out three things to watch while merging.
Next up is a new segment called “Quick Crypto Tips”, which aims to give newcomers to the crypto industry quick and easy tips to get the most out of their experience. Tip this week: Know when to step down.
