The U.S. Department of the Treasury has imposed sanctions on Cambodian tycoon Ly Yong Phat and his businesses, linking them to human trafficking and forced labor scams involving cryptocurrency fraud. Victims were manipulated into online scam centers, and trafficked workers were forced into labor for these schemes. The sanctions freeze U.S.-based assets and prohibit transactions, […]
Ethereum appears to have now seen a notable shift in its major metric. Particularly, a recent CryptoQuant analyst, Burak Kesmeci report, highlighted the potential significance of Ethereum’s current funding rates. The analyst pointed out that similar patterns in the past have been followed by substantial price increases, suggesting that Ethereum might be on the verge of a new surge.

Funding rates are a key future market metric, indicating the balance between long and short positions. When the funding rate stays low for an extended period, it can signal market indecision or calm, but if the rate rises sharply, it often precedes a strong price movement. According to the report by Kesmeci, Ethereum’s funding rates have been hovering between 0.002 and 0.005, a relatively low level last seen in September 2023. The funding rate then spiked above 0.015, followed by a price rally from $1,500 to over $4,000. The analyst further explored whether Ethereum’s funding rate in September 2024 could signal a similar price movement. The current low funding rates have persisted for about a month, starting from August. This situation mirrors the period before last year’s significant price surge. September and the final quarter have historically been pivotal times for crypto markets, often seeing increased trading volume and price gains as summer ends. However, Kesmeci noted: I can’t say if history will repeat itself, but there’s certainly a rhythm to it. We will wait for Ether’s funding rate to rise above 0.015 to see if the calm before the storm breaks. A move above this level in funding rates is crucial for tracking healthy increases during bull markets. How Is Ethereum Faring So Far? While Ethereum hasn’t seen a further decrease following its low of $2,197 last month, the asset hasn’t seen a major price increase in the past weeks. Instead, ETH has continued to consolidate within a specific range. Following an attempt to create a new all-time high back in March, trading above $4,000, ETH has seen a consistent decline ever since and has remained below $3,000 since August. So far, the asset has declined 2.7% in the past weeks and has also seen a 0.7% increase in the past 24 hours. However, the asset remains below the $3,000 mark, currently trading for $2,331 at the time of writing. Related Reading: Ethereum Sees Massive Outflows from Derivatives: What Does This Mean For ETH?

I used to used eth2spec(PyPI) to parse beacon chain's ssz files but it seems the library does not support recent fork changes and new fields. The release history says the project's latest update was in 2022 which explains the unsupported fields of structures. So is there any other library (not only from Python but some…

BNB price started a fresh surge above the $525 resistance zone. The price is now consolidating gains and might aim for more gains above $550. BNB price started a fresh increase above the $525 resistance zone. The price is now trading below $535 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. There is a short-term rising channel forming with support at $540 on the hourly chart of the BNB/USD pair (data source from Binance). The pair must stay above the $525 pivot level to start another increase in the near term. BNB Price Settles Above $525 In the last analysis, we discussed the chance of more gains in BNB price above the $525 resistance. The price outperformed Ethereum and Bitcoin. It surged above the $525 and $535 levels. It even tested the $550 resistance zone. A high was formed at $549.5 and the price started a downside correction. There was a move below the $545 level. The price slipped just below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $507 swing low to the $549 high. The pair is now trading above $535 and the 100-hourly simple moving average. There is also a short-term rising channel forming with support at $540 on the hourly chart of the BNB/USD pair. If there is a fresh increase, the price could face resistance near the $548 level. The next resistance sits near the $550 level. A clear move above the $550 zone could send the price higher. In the stated case, BNB price could test $562. A close above the $562 resistance might set the pace for a larger move toward the $580 resistance. Any more gains might call for a test of the $585 level in the near term. Are Dips Limited? If BNB fails to clear the $550 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $540 level and the channel trend line. The next major support is near the $525 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the upward move from the $507 swing low to the $549 high. The main support sits at $520. If there is a downside break below the $520 support, the price could drop toward the $505 support. Any more losses could initiate a larger decline toward the $500 level.
