Asset management firm GoldenTree invests $5.2 million in Sushiswap

Asset management giant GoldenTree has taken another leap in the crypto space after investing about $5.2 million in the SushiSwap governance token.

Asset management firm GoldenTree announced via the Sushiswap forum on Wednesday that it has invested $5.2 million in Sushiswap.

GoldenTree, which has around $47 billion in assets under management, revealed that it had been following Sushi for a while. The firm said the launch of its crypto-focused GoldenChain Asset Management arm made it excited to invest in Sushiswap. GoldenTree said;

“We wanted to take a moment to introduce ourselves to the community. We’ve been following Sushi for a while (some of us for several years now), and with the launch of GoldenChain, we are psyched to be more active in all things Sushi. We’re excited about the Sushi 2.0 roadmap, and think upcoming cross-chain integrations for swapping and lending (Sarang is incredibly thoughtful on this front), and updated tokenomics (we’ve been throwing them some ideas around tokenomics) have the potential to be transformative for Sushi.”

SushiSwap, similar to Uniswap, is a decentralised exchange (DEX) that allows people to easily swap one token for another.

Users can buy Sushiswap tokens on a wide range of centralised and decentralised cryptocurrency exchanges.

The GoldenTree team added that it believes Sushi has incredible potential. They added that;

“To GoldenTree, Sushi represents the best of DeFi, both in origin and in community. Sushi is what DeFi is all about: iterating and innovating, without artificial barriers to competition. We love the approach to new, composable products such as Trident and Bento that give developers frameworks on which to layer on complexity has been quite novel. We don’t think the full power of these products has been unlocked yet or appreciated by many devs.”

The Sushiswap vs. Uniswap comparison continues to be present in the crypto space. The Sushiswap decentralised exchange was created as a copy of Uniswap, with added liquidity mining and governance features.

The investment comes a few days after Sushi community members elected Jared Grey as CEO. GoldenTree said the community has been through some tough challenges, and it has been amazed at the resilience of both the core team and the community in the face of these speed bumps.

Bitcoin fails to move towards the $21,368 resistance level: Will it dip soon?

Bitcoin has performed well over the last few days but has failed to surge past the resistance level above $21k.

Bitcoin, the world’s leading cryptocurrency, has been performing well over the last few days. The coin has added more than 4% to its value in the last 24 hours and is now trading above $20k for the first time this month.

The positive performance coincides with that of the broader cryptocurrency market. The crypto market has been in a bullish trend since the start of the week, with the total crypto market cap now closing in on the $975 billion mark.

Bitcoin has been trading above the $20k level for the last 48 hours and has failed to mount a rally towards the $21,368 resistance level. 

BTC is down by less than 1% in the last 24 hours and could dip below the $20k support level in the coming hours if the bulls don’t take control of the market.

Key levels to watch 

The BTC/USD 4-hour chart remains bullish despite Bitcoin underperforming over the last few hours. However, the technical indicators show that Bitcoin could become bearish if the current momentum is maintained.

BTC/USD Chart By TradingView

The MACD line remains above the neutral zone, indicating bullish momentum for Bitcoin. The 14-day RSI of 62 also shows that Bitcoin could enter the overbought region if a sustainable rally can be achieved.

At press time, BTC is trading at $20,205 per coin. If the bulls don’t take control of the market, Bitcoin could slip below the first major support level at $19,581 before the end of the day.

However, the second major support level at $19,026 should cap further downward movement in the near term. 

The bulls could regain control of the market and push BTC towards the $20,819 resistance level. In the event of an extended rally, BTC could surge past the $21,368 resistance level in the short term.

Cryptos to watch as Fidelity and Bitwise turn to Web 3.0

One of the best indicators of where money is going in the crypto space is to look at the activities of institutional investors. These are players with big money, and their actions directly impact the market’s potential direction. That’s why the recent moves by Fidelity and Bitwise spell good tidings for the Web 3.0 space. 

Bitwise has announced that it is launching a Web 3.0 ETF. The ETF will trade under the ticker BWEB and invest in more than 40 companies, all within the Web 3.0 space. On its part, Fidelity is launching the Ethereum Index Fund, which is part of the organization’s push toward investing in the Ethereum ecosystem. 

As this news filters into the market, Web 3.0 cryptocurrencies will likely see a pump and could end the week among the top performers. To take advantage of the potential of Web 3.0 cryptocurrencies, below are some of the best to watch now.

The Graph (GRT) is a web 3.0 cryptocurrency within the fast-growing Ethereum ecosystem. The Graph is designed to make querying the Ethereum blockchain easy, which is essential if Web 3.0 is to gain traction. Besides its critical role in Web 3.0, The Graph is currently trading at record lows after a heavily bearish 2022 year-to-date. As such, there is an incentive for traders to jump into GRT, a factor that could see this cryptocurrency trade in the green soon.

 Polkadot (DOT)

Polkadot (DOT) is one of the best Web 3.0 cryptocurrencies in the market today. That’s because it is designed for scalability, a critical factor if Web 3.0 is to replace Web 2.0. Now that institutional money is showing an interest in Web 3.0, Polkadot stands out among the cryptocurrencies that are likely to increase speculator interest. 

On top of that, Polkadot is currently trading at a significant low from its most recent highs. As such, now that there is renewed interest in Web 3.0 thanks to institutional money, FOMO could set in the short term. Already, trader interest in Polkadot is rising, as seen by the rising buying volumes.

Ethereum (ETH)

Ethereum (ETH) is the king of smart contracts and supports the largest Web 3.0 ecosystem in crypto. So significant is Ethereum that it is impossible to talk about Web 3.0 without mentioning Ethereum. While Ethereum hasn’t shown much activity even after the Merge, the odds are that it could lead the way now that institutional money is starting to show an interest in Web 3.0. 

The most significant factor likely to give Ethereum a price push in the short term is the move by Fidelity to launch an Ethereum Index Fund. This move creates the impression that institutional money believes in Ethereum and is a real reason to drive FOMO. The fact that Ethereum is currently trading at record lows will also likely add to the excitement around Ethereum in the short term.

Dogecoin’s journey to $0.07 reignited as price jumps. What next?

  • Dogecoin sends mixed signals amid the latest market recovery
  • The cryptocurrency gained 6% on Wednesday amid high social interest
  • DOGE looks set to reclaim the $0.07 level after intraday gains of 6%

Dogecoin DOGE/USD continues to send mixed signals despite recent recoveries. A bull signal was after breaking above a short-term descending trendline that sent the meme token to $0.068. The ascend was quickly followed by a bearish pin bar below the crucial resistance.

Typically, pin bars communicate price rejection. A bearish pin bar will be characterised by a long wick on the upper side and a small body. It occurs when the price closes significantly lower than the open. That’s exactly what happened to DOGE, as the price hit $0.068. The formation of a bearish pin bar pushed the price down to $0.060.

However, on Wednesday, DOGE rose by 6%, recovering from the $0.060 bottom. LunarCrush ranked the cryptocurrency in the first position by social interest. That came as Elon Musk hinted at proceeding with the Twitter acquisition. Investors have been speculating that the “Doge father” will allow the meme token as payment.

Dogecoin price outlook amid ongoing correction

Keeping the breakout on the descending trendline in mind, DOGE should be considered bullish. The proposition arises because the meme token is yet to break below the key support at $0.060. 

Besides, following renewed strengths, DOGE bulls have overcome a slide below the support. The formation of a long bullish bar at the level shows a strong buyer interest, a bull catalyst.

Concluding thoughts

Buyers may take control of DOGE to the $0.07 resistance. Musk news is a key bull trigger that could sustain DOGE to the key level. Investors should consider buying on a potential retracement.
