At the time of writing, Ethereum Classic (ETC) trades at $30 with a 27% profit in the past day and a 20% profit over the past week. Data from Coingecko indicates that ETC’s price has been the best performing asset in the sector followed by Lido DAO (LDO). This cryptocurrency records a higher increase than ETC’s price in the past 24 hours with 41% profits. Ethereum Classic has outperformed it in the past week, but it’s noteworthy that these two cryptocurrencies are rallying. Lido DAO is a platform that offers users Ethereum (ETH) staking services. This allows retail investors to lock their ETH and receive a portion of the rewards from the upcoming Proof-of-Stake (PoS) migration without meeting the 30 ETH requirement. Ethereum Classic (ETC) Will Extend Gains With “The Merge” On the other hand, Ethereum Classic (ETC) is perceived as the alternative for ETH miners for when this blockchain completes its migration to a PoS consensus. This process is set to be completed in September 2022, with “The Merge”. An event that will combine Ethereum’s execution layer with its consensus layer, ETH core developers only recently announced a fix tentative data for its mainnet launch. The blockchain has seen two successful implementations of “The Merge” on major Ethereum testnets. This event represents the end of the ETH mining sector as it exists today. The PoS blockchain will validate transactions with a different mechanism. Thus, miners will have to scramble to secure other Proof-of-Work (PoW) networks, like Ethereum Classic. As the chances of “The Merge” mainnet implementation increase, ETC’s price seems likely to follow.

Roughly 50% of the panelists recommend holding Binance Coin, 30% say yes to selling the coin, while 20% say to buy BNB. Featured image from Finance Zipmex, chart from TradingView.com

Bitcoin Buyers Reluctant To Step In, Fear And Greed Index Suggests

Data shows the Bitcoin investor sentiment has recently improved, but buyers are still reluctant as fear continues in the market. Bitcoin Fear And Greed Index Points To A Fearful Sentiment As per the latest weekly report from Arcane Research, the BTC market sentiment hit a high of 34 last week, but now it has once again fallen to just above extreme fear territory. The “fear and greed” index is an indicator that measures the general sentiment among investors in the Bitcoin market. The metric uses a numeric scale that runs from zero to hundred for representing this sentiment. All values above fifty imply greed, while those below the threshold suggest fear. Values towards the end of the range of above 75 and below 25 signify sentiments of “extreme greed” and “extreme fear,” respectively. Historically, tops have tended to form during extreme greed, while bottoms have taken place during the periods with the latter sentiment. Because of this fact, some traders believe it’s best to sell while the market is extremely greedy and buy when investors are extremely fearful. “Contrarian investing” is a trading technique that echoes this idea. The famous Warren Buffet quote sums it up: “be fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.” Now, here is a chart that shows the trend in the Bitcoin fear and greed index over the past year: The value of the indicator seems to have surged up during recent weeks | Source: Arcane Research’s The Weekly Update – Week 29, 2022 As you can see in the above graph, the Bitcoin fear and greed has observed some growth recently and is currently at a value of 26, suggesting a fearful sentiment is gripping the market currently. Preceding this latest improvement in the mentality was a long stretch of extreme fear, the longest in the history of the crypto, in fact. It lasted for 74 days. Last week, the indicator’s value had risen up to even 34 as the coin’s price saw a recovery rally. However, as the run ended and the crypto once again slumped down, so did the sentiment among the investors. The report notes that this trend indicates participants in the BTC (and wider crypto) market believe that this recent rally was just a fakeout. Overall, the sentiment is certainly an improvement over the extreme fear hell of June, but the buyers still remain reluctant. BTC Price At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s price floats around $21.3k, down 10% in the last week. Over the past month, the crypto has gained 2% in value.
