ETH breaks through the $2400 mark

BlockBeats News: On May 10th, Nick Tomaino, the founder of 1cConfirmation, posted on X stating that "Ethereum will surpass Bitcoin (ETH will flip BTC) Bitcoin is the first cryptocurrency created by the people for the people. Driven by grassroots spirit and bottom-up beliefs, it has grown from nothing to an asset worth over $2 trillion. The storage value concept based on trust in mathematics rather than people has changed the world, but now Bitcoin has become the preferred institutional asset for large corporations and governments. An entity owns over 2.5% of Bitcoin. There are no practical applications built on Bitcoin to attract newcomers. Apart from storing value, Bitcoin has no other use cases to expand the market. Ethereum is a credible and neutral storage value asset originating from the Internet, supporting the development platform, covering stable currency, decentralized finance (DeFi), NFT, forecasting market, decentralized social networking, decentralized identity, etc. All the new use cases that have driven the development of the encryption field in the past decade have been built on Ethereum, and these use cases are all growing. These use cases attract newcomers to distribute Ethereum as a storage value and make Ethereum even scarcer. Maximists claim that there will only be one credible neutral storage value asset originating from the Internet. They are completely wrong. There will be many such assets in the future, but currently there are only two viable options: Bitcoin and Ethereum

Nick Tomaino, founder of 1cConfirmation, stated in an article on X platform that BTC is the first cryptocurrency that serves the people. The grassroots spirit and belief from the bottom up have enabled it to grow from scratch, and its market value has soared to over 2 trillion US dollars. Value storage based on trust in mathematics rather than people is changing the world, but BTC has now become the preferred institutional asset for large companies and governments, with one entity owning over 2.5% of BTC shares. Currently, there are no practical applications developed on Bitcoin to attract new users, and there are no use cases other than value storage to expand market share. ETH is a trusted and neutral Internet native value storage tool, supporting the developer platform, which covers stable currency, decentralized finance NFT、 Market forecasting, decentralized social networking, decentralized identity, and so on. All the new use cases that have driven the development of this field in the past decade have emerged on Ethereum and are constantly evolving, attracting new users to distribute ETH as a value storage tool and increasing its scarcity. Some people will only have a trusted, neutral, Internet native value storage method in the future. They are very wrong and may have many, but at present there are only two feasible options: BTC and ETH.

I made a mistake myself in this market trend, relying too much on technical aspects and ignoring that the current market is completely controlled by Trump. The technical aspects are not as effective as someone else's tweet. There's nothing I can do about it. In fact, personally I still think there is an opportunity for the market to be bearish in the long term. Bitcoin has been in the market for so many days, and only yesterday did a single trading volume appear at the daily level, which is still high. This situation, combined with the historical trend in recent years, is often bearish at the high level. Currently, technical indicators, except for naked k, are mostly supportive, and the rest are in a bearish state. Therefore, personally, I still prefer to short at the high point. This wave of positive news for Ethereum has finally landed, with the only rebound in six months. The washing up was too severe, and after washing back and forth for a long time, all the pressure levels and support levels were useless during the upward trend. It completely controlled the market and took off, but it was still heavily manipulated, with a high of 2500 and a sudden drop to 2300. Therefore, the recent market trend has directly increased the intensity of operations. Ethereum will pay attention to the 2580 position in the future. Operation suggestion: Bitcoin 104800 to 5500 is short, defending 106000. Target 98500 Ethereum 2580 to 2550 are empty, defending 2620.

BlockBeats News: On Wednesday, May 10th, New Hampshire passed a bill allowing the state to create a strategic Bitcoin reserve. A day later, Arizona also passed legislation supporting cryptocurrency reserves. As the November elections approach, the momentum at the state level reflects further attention from political leaders towards digital asset policies. Recently, President Trump's optimistic remarks about the upcoming US China trade negotiations have also eased market anxiety. These remarks echo the new trade agreement signed between the United States and the United Kingdom, which will eliminate reciprocal tariffs and lower tariffs on American goods, further boosting confidence in the stock and cryptocurrency markets. Analysts say that the recent trend marks a decisive break from the sluggish price behavior that plagued altcoins in March and April. Traders believe that the cryptocurrency industry may finally have found a second spring as a hedge against market uncertainty, "said Nick Ruck, director of LVRG Research, in a Telegram chat. Investors are changing their views on cryptocurrencies as altcoins have overcome negative trends and are gaining buying pressure due to the resurgence of risk appetite sentiment, "Ruck added. The 30% increase in Ethereum this week is also attributed to increased institutional interest and the momentum of Pectra upgrade, which introduces long-awaited executive layer reforms aimed at improving efficiency and scalability. This upgrade provides Ethereum with much-needed reforms to consolidate its position as a leading chain in increasingly fierce competition, "said Mei from BTSE. Given that Ethereum prices are far below their historical highs, we may see significant upward potential in the coming weeks and months, especially as macro concerns ease and institutions become more willing to allocate to cryptocurrencies and crypto ETFs. '' Nevertheless, traders are still closely monitoring this weekend's US China trade negotiations. The negotiations will begin in Switzerland later on Saturday, and any signs of deadlock or increased tension could weaken the current uptrend.
