Critics have suggested Bitcoin could not operate as the same decentralized currency without a consensus mechanism like proof-of-work.

I accept that some people don't believe in proof of stake, and want to sell after merge. They are wrong, but I accept it. My question is, why wait until after the merge? This came as no surprise. There were only two possible outcomes today, Merge fail or merge succeed. Merge cancel was never an…

Is it then safer to make a AES256-encrypted zip of it , with a 32 characters long (=256 bits) password? submitted by /u/stealthepixels…

Tomorrow many investors around the world will naturally be ready to accept some more volatility than usually, the reason for this is the Quadruple Witching happening.

In this episode of NewsBTC’s daily technical analysis videos, we examine the price action in Ethereum following the Merge upgrade in both the ETHUSD and ETHBTC trading pairs. Take a look at the video below: VIDEO: Ethereum Price Analysis (ETHUSD): September 15, 2022 Overnight last night, the Ethereum Merge upgrade occurred. As many expected, it turned out to be a sell-the-news event for the second-ranked cryptocurrency and has fallen by more than 10% intraday on the USD pair.

The stock market is also in danger, adding stress to the entire situation. ETHUSD on daily timeframes could be forming a head and shoulders top, just as LMACD crosses bearish. More downside could be necessary where the Relative Strength Index would hopefully find support at a lower trend line. Ethereum sold off sharply after The Merge update was completed | Source: ETHUSD on TradingView.com The Remaining Bullish Signal On Ethereum Weekly Charts Turning on the Ichimoku gives Ether bulls at least some hope of hanging onto recent gains. Finding support in the Ichimoku cloud could lead to renewed energy and a retest of highs. The Ichomuku on Ethereum weekly charts also is trying to find support above the Tenkan-sen. Slightly above the Tenkan-sen is an even more important line to hold: the middle Bollinger Band. Finding support above the middle Bollinger Band has in the past led to some of the altcoin’s strongest bull trends.

On the weekly, the bottom of the cloud was already tested and held, which is a bullish sign. However, the downtrend resistance line appears to have struck again and sent Ether tumbling against Bitcoin. Despite the bearish signals on the ETHBTC pair, the video’s conclusion provides a longer-term bullish outlook you have to see for the full picture. Was downtrend resistance able to stop Ethereum once again? | Source: ETHBTC on TradingView.com Learn crypto technical analysis yourself with the NewsBTC Trading Course.
