Ethereum-Wale sind in Bezug auf Meme-Coin Shiba Inu bullisch

  • Der Besitz von Shiba Inu unter den Top 1000 Ethereum-Walen liegt nur hinter dem von Ether
  • Die Wale reiten auf der Welle der zunehmenden Akzeptanz des Meme-Tokens 

Shiba Inu-Investitionen von Top-Ethereum-Investoren haben zugenommen. Der Token ist bei früheren Gelegenheiten häufig als der Vermögenswert mit der Top-Holding (neben ETH) unter den Top 1000 Ethereum-Walen aufgetaucht.

Das On-Chain-Überwachungstool WhaleStats stellte gestern fest, dass die Bestände der Wale in Shiba Inu erneut 2 Milliarden USD überschritten hatten.

Shiba Inu, FTX-Token und USD-Coin auf dem Radar der Ethereum-Wale

Da der genaue Besitz von Shiba Inu bis zu 2.761.646.130 USD (18.260.127.622.912 Token) an Wert einbrachte, trug dies dazu bei, dass 23,01 % ihrer Portfolios unter allen Krypto-Beständen mit Ausnahme von Ethereum an erster Stelle standen.

Obwohl diese Zahl auf 1.585.320 USD (54.330.197.125 SHIB) gesunken ist, hat Shiba Inu immer noch die bedeutendste Position nach Dollarwert mit einer Dominanz von 16,42 %. FTX-Token und Stablecoin USDC sind die zweiten bzw. dritten. Auch Ethereum-Wale haben mit 16,17 % und 10,69 % Token-Besitz enorm auf sie gesetzt.

Die zweitgrößte Ethereum-Wallet, die sich als „Light“ identifiziert, ist einer der bullischsten Wale auf dem SHIB-Token. Mit einem recht diversifizierten Portfolio zeigt die Heatmap von Light, dass SHIB mit 1.052.077.950 USD auf einem Dominanzniveau von 18,19 % der am zweithäufigsten gehaltene Token ist.

Aber andererseits ist dieser Wal ein Hinweis darauf, dass die Anleger zwar an den Token glauben, aber auch vorsichtig vorgehen. Shiba rangiert unter ihren eingehenden Token (62,15 %) am höchsten und auch an der Spitze der ausgehenden Token (37,87 %).

Das Wachstum der Walinvestitionen wird oft als Bullenflagge angesehen, und Faktoren rund um Shiba stimmen mit dieser Theorie überein. In den letzten Wochen hat sich der Token nach dem Dump im Januar zusammen mit anderen Kryptowährungen erholt. Die Adoption nimmt zu, da die Armee mit über 1,18 Millionen Inhabern an Zugkraft gewinnt.

Der Shiba-Einfluss

Eine der effektivsten Strategien, um einen Weg in das Mainstream-Publikum zu finden, ist die Zusammenarbeit mit physisch zugänglichen Wesen, und Shiba Inu scheint diesen Weg einzuschlagen. Anfang des Monats gab der Hauptentwickler von SHIB, der pseudonyme Shytoshi Kusama, bekannt, dass der Coin mit dem italienischen Restaurant Welly, einem Burgerladen in Neapel, zusammenarbeitet.

Die Partnerschaft machte Welly zum allerersten Shiba-Themenrestaurant. Kusama erklärte, dass das Projekt der ShibArmy Nahrung geben sollte, was seiner Meinung nach ein Schritt war, der „SHIBs ersten Schritt in IRL-Projekte (im wirklichen Leben) festigt“.

Crypto is ‘best place’ to store wealth if Fed rate hike crash markets, says Pantera CEO

Bears continue to dominate sentiment, with more downsides likely amid inflation and geopolitical concerns.

Dan Morehead says if interest rates rise, equities and real estate will become less attractive, leaving blockchain assets as the best store of value.

Pantera Capital CEO Dan Morehead has said that crypto remains the “best place” for investors looking to store their wealth if US Federal Reserve’s interest rate hikes take the shine off equities.

In a newsletter published Wednesday, the Pantera chief pointed to the concerns across the markets over the Fed’s potential direction as it begins to hike rates in the wake of runaway inflation.

Last week, data showed US consumer prices rose 7.5% year over year, with Fed’s minutes this week signaling interest rates are incoming. While the market might have priced in the March rate hike, just how aggressive the central bank will be, has most investors in spooked mode.

Higher rates make stocks and real estate ‚less attractive‘

A dip in the stock market will likely see Bitcoin and other crypto assets head lower, as happened this week amid the Russia-Ukraine tension. Lockstep trading is something that has seen analysts and economists predict more pain for crypto if stocks begin to bleed.

But Morehead thinks digital assets will have it less rough if the negative scenario plays out. He believes the “markets will decouple soon,” leaving investors with the choice of what would be the best store of value.

“Rising rates will make equities and real estate less attractive. So, where does one invest when both stocks and bonds are falling?” he asked in the note cited by Cointelegraph.

In his view, blockchain [and digital assets such as Bitcoin] provide “a very legit place to invest.”

Crypto sold-off due to tax preps

Commenting on the selling pressure that has crypto markets nursing huge losses since late last year, the Pantera chief pointed to a possible sell-side effect related to investors looking at taxes.

He noted that some of the downward pressure comes from “unintended tax positions” that investors find themselves in after a bumper 2021.

“There were $1.4 trillion of cryptocurrency capital gains created last year,” he wrote, adding that this alone could be responsible for a significant chunk of the sell-off seen since last year’s peaks for Bitcoin and other crypto assets.

Bitcoin is currently trading near $40,400, about 5% down in the past 24 hours as crypto tracks losses in equity markets. The S&P 500 closed 2.12% lower on Thursday, while the Dow fell more than 600 points.

API3 is up 14% in 24 hours: the best places to buy API3 now

Smart contracts can struggle to access dependable data. APIs (application programming interfaces) are frequently cited as a possible solution. This article explains what API3 is, what makes it unique, if it’s worth buying, and the best places to buy API3 now.  

Top places to buy API3 now

As API3 is such a new asset, it’s yet to be listed on major exchanges. You can still purchase API3 using a DEX (decentralised exchange) though, which just means there are a few extra steps. To buy API3 right now, follow these steps:

1. Buy ETH on a regulated exchange or broker, like eToro ›

We suggest eToro because it’s one of the world’s leading multi-asset trading platforms, an exchange and wallet all-in-one with some of the lowest fees in the industry. It’s also beginner-friendly, and has more payment methods available to users than any other available service.

2. Send your ETH to a compatible wallet like Trust Wallet or MetaMask

You’ll need to create your wallet, grab your address, and send your coins there.

3. Connect your wallet to the Uniswap DEX

Head to Uniswap, and ‚connect‘ your wallet to it.

4. You can now swap your ETH for API3

Now that you’re connected, you’ll be able to swap for 100s of coins including API3.

What is API3?

API3’s stated goal is to allow decentralized versions of APIs to be built, managed and monetized at scales. According to the team behind the platform, it has never been more important for smart contracts to provide “timely, reliable real-world data.”

API3 is aiming to fix some of the problems that have emerged within the blockchain space itself. APIs are crucial because of how they supply blockchains with off-chain data.

Without it, decentralized ledgers wouldn’t have a clue about how much coins should be worth. API3 is unique in that decentralized APIs can provide superior data transparency down to the factual data source level.

In comparison, existing decentralized oracles do not consider the data source API to be within their scope.

Should I buy API3 today?

Nothing can substitute doing your own research. Any investment decision you make should be based on your market expertise, your attitude to risk, and the features and spread of your portfolio. Also consider how you would feel about losing money.

Tech News Leader is bullish on API3. Its current price is $5.53 and the analysts predict it will more than double within a year, reaching $10.52. In 5 years, 1 API3 will be worth $34.20. In a decade, its value will have gone up to $209.
