• Unibot price outlook as new Telegram trading bot Bitbot hits presale stage
• UNIBOT trades around $89 on January 20, down from highs of $236 in August 2023.
• With the token’s early investors seeing 200x following its launch, could Bitbot prove a better buy in 2024 given its advantages over Unibot?

New Telegram trading bot Bitbot (BITBOT) launched its presale as anticipated earlier this week. It is currently attracting huge interest as the raised amount surpasses $147k in just three days. 

Meanwhile, Unibot (UNIBOT), one of the popular Telegram-based crypto trading apps, is looking to bounce after hitting lows of $74.73 on January 19.

Here is Unibot’s price outlook as the market eyes fresh momentum following this week’s struggles. But could Bitbot’s explosive start to the presale be a precursor of its eventual dominance of the space?

What is Bitbot?

Bitbot is a Telegram trading platform that offers the world’s first non-custodial crypto trading bot. What this means is that unlike other trading apps on Telegram, Bitbot will not hold or store its users’ crypto.

This all boils down to security, which is a priority following recent compromises, including those that involved Unibot and Banana Gun. Bitbot’s non-custodial design, which taps into MPC wallet security of decentralized digital asset custody provider Knightsafe, is currently not available via any other Telegram trading bot.

By tapping into MPC Custody, the bot ensures a keyless management system where control over assets remains with the trader. Also key is the anti-MEV and anti-rug tools that provide a further shield against monitoring bots and potential scams.

Apart from top-notch security, the Solid Proof audited project also offers access to copy trading, yield optimization and automated sniping. With such tools at a trader’s disposal, anyone can now take advantage of the opportunities available in the crypto trading market.

Bitbot presale is live

After a long wait for its presale debut, Bitbot hit the market on January 17, 2024, debuting its BITBOT token sale at $0.01.

The amount raised has quickly shot past $100,000 as early adopters signal the industry’s confidence in the trading bot’s technology, features and potential. Unibot has a total supply of 1 billion tokens, 300 million of which will be available to presale participants across 15 stages. 

Currently, the raised amount has reached $149,000 and could soon hit stage 1 milestone of $200k. The project targets $4.32 million.

Unibot price prediction

Telegram crypto trading bots currently have a total market cap of $420 million. Unibot currently accounts for $89 million, up from the lows of $39 million reached following a hacking incident in October. Unibot’s market cap was $200 million a few weeks before the exploit.

Unibot is looking to recapture this, but price currently hovers near $88.90 on January 20, 2024. 

However, the trading bot’s expansion to the Solana blockchain has coincided with a boom in meme coins on the network. User numbers and trading volume has spiked in recent weeks to suggest an uptick in the market could see UNIBOT price reclaim support above $100.

According to data from CoinGecko, the Unibot’s token reached an all-time high of $236 in August 2023.

Could Bitbot be a better buy in 2024?

When it launches in the market at the end of its presale phase, Bitbot will not just bring self-custody trading to users; it will offer access to a range of features and opportunities that could see it swiftly become the most popular Telegram trading app.

With early Unibot adopters having seen gains of more than 200x as price reached its ATH and market cap surpassed $200 million, a similar trajectory could be seen with BITBOT.  

Bitbot’s launch amid the bull cycle could also be the perfect timing. Traders have a chance to position themselves for the investment potential that holding the native BITBOT token brings. With Telegram boasting over 800 million users, Bitbot’s launch on the messaging platform could see it challenge Unibot.

• Ethereum and Meme Moguls price forecast as SEC delays Fidelity’s spot ETF.
• $ETH: Analyst says $2,450 key to bulls and market could see sharp bounce.
• Meme Moguls ($MGLS) price has reached $0.0027 in stage 4, showing a 42% upside as potential 100x toke gathers presale pace.

Amid the crypto market’s bid to bounce from recent declines, Ethereum ($ETH) price is battling to hold above $2,400. While most altcoins mirror Ethereum’s downside move, some with double-digit losses over the past 24 hours, new token Meme Moguls ($MGLS) is defying the turbulence.

Here’s what analysts are saying about Ethereum and Meme Moguls.

SEC delays decision on Fidelity’s spot ETF

After recently approving several spot Bitcoin ETFs, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has postponed its decision on Fidelity’s proposal to list a spot Ethereum ETF. 

A SEC filing on Thursday pushed the decision on whether to allow or reject the application to March 5, 2024.

According to Bloomberg ETF analyst James Seyffart, SEC’s move to delay aligns with market expectations. He opines that the regulator could push the final resolution to late May. There are other Ethereum ETF applications before the SEC, including by BlackRock and Grayscale.

Meme Moguls ($MGLS): Strong presale suggests market confidence

$MGLS is the native token of the Meme Moguls platform, a new meme-backed trading exchange currently in presale.

The project offers an ecosystem where traders can tap into the opportunities available across the meme-inspired assets’ marketplace. It means viral performances for meme tokens is a chance to make a profitable trade on Meme Moguls.

By holding $MGLS, a trader can also participate in stake and earn as well as take advantage of a play-to-earn (P2E) environment to accrue earnings as they showcase their skills.

With the crypto trading landscape growing amid further adoption, Meme Moguls makes this an inclusive community platform. There’s an opportunity for everyone, including beginner traders who can climb leaderboards as they learn from moguls within the community.

Currently in presale, the Meme Moguls token’s price has risen to $0.0027 as massive interest continues amid predictions that this could be the next 100x token. 

The project has raised over $1.7 million in stage 4 of the token sale. What’s on show is the kind of attention that could fuel $MGLS momentum when the token lists on exchanges after the presale. 

Ethereum ($ETH): $2,450 key to bulls

Crypto prices reacted higher when asset manager’s first filed for the ETH spot ETFs, just like when it happened following Grayscale’s victory over the SEC in the fight to convert GBTC to a spot ETF.

Prices also rallied as the US securities regulator finally approved the first spot Bitcoin ETFs for the US market, with BTC rallying to highs of $49,000 and ETH retesting multi-month highs above $2,700.

Ethereum price is currently looking to hold the critical $2,450 support area. It’s a key level given the liquidations witnessed in the past 24 hours.

Commenting on the price outlook, MAC.D, an analyst at on-chain analytics provider CryptoQuant, noted: “If a large number of long positions are liquidated, causing volatility to the downside, market sentiment has the potential to shift sharply, while if the price holds and bounces back, investors are likely to be reassured and return to buying.”

Ethereum and Meme Moguls price prediction conclusion

While headwinds abound from a regulatory perspective, the crypto market appears to be confident in the eventual approval of ETH spot ETFs. The reflection is in the resilience currently on display despite the hit on broader sentiment.

Analysts expect Ethereum price to retest its all-time high above $4,800 if the bull market holds, and an ETF approval in March, or May, could help catalyse this growth. 

Meanwhile, Meme Moguls could explode as the token makes an entry into the market amid overall upside trajectory for crypto, including meme coins.

Jin us as we delve into the challenges Manta Network is facing and explore Bitbot’s mission to put institutional-grade tools in the hands of individual investors.

Manta Network DDoS attack

Manta Network, a modular blockchain protocol renowned for its focus on zero-knowledge (ZK) application development, encountered a significant setback shortly after the launch of its governance token, $MANTA. The network experienced a Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attack, as confirmed by the co-founder, Kenny Li.

This malicious attempt flooded the network with over 135 million remote procedure call (RPC) requests, a coordinated effort to obstruct normal operations.

Li reassured the community that despite the severity of the attack, the blockchain is running securely, product production continues, and funds remain safe. However, the assault severely limited communication between applications and the blockchain, resulting in delayed transactions and slower withdrawal times.

Understanding the gravity of the situation, Manta Network swiftly responded, stating that it is working tirelessly to deploy enhanced DDoS mitigation efforts. The attack’s abnormal scale and duration posed challenges, extending the resolution timeframe.

Bitbot: revolutionizing retail trading

Users can seamlessly copy the trades of top-performing traders, enjoy a built-in referral program, and experience easy sign-up with the creation of up to three free wallets.

Bitbot’s presale launched on January 17 offering 30% of the total supply of 1,000,000,000 tokens up for grabs for earlycomers. The presale spans 15 stages, each with a designated percentage of tokens and token price.

In the first stage, the BITBOT token is going for $0.01 and the price is expected to rise to $0.0105 in the next stage. The token price will keep on rising with each presale stage meaning the early bird has the opportunity to reap the most.

Conclusion

As Manta Network navigates a DDoS attack showcasing its commitment to security and privacy, Bitbot’s emergence as a retail investor-friendly trading bot brings institutional-grade tools to the masses, ushering in a new era of financial autonomy.

As these entities weather challenges and forge ahead, the crypto community witnesses the evolution of technologies and solutions that promise to redefine the future of decentralized finance and blockchain applications.
