Recently, the Ethereum market has performed outstandingly, with its price breaking its recent high on May 5th, reaching $1945.During the same period, although Bitcoin remained volatile at a high point, it did not break a new high and its rise was significantly weaker than Ethereum.As of April 10th, ETH/BTC has risen by about 6.92% so far this month, reaching a maximum of 0.0679BTC, rebounding nearly 8% since March 20th.As of writing, Bitcoin has fallen below $28000, with a price of $27883 and Ethereum at $1830.The main reason why Ethereum has shown a strong upward trend and outperformed Bitcoin is due to the upcoming Shanghai hard fork upgrade on April 12th!Many experts believe that in the long run, hard forking is beneficial for Ethereum. up to now,The Shanghai craze helped Ethereum outperform Bitcoin in AprilCurrently, the positive signals surrounding Ethereum are evident:According to Glassnode data, the total value of ETH2.0 deposit contracts has just reached a 10 month high of $31601215618.82.According to data from the official website mainnet.beconcha. in of Ethereum, the total number of Ethereum pledges has exceeded 18 million ETHs, with a total of 18044134 ETHs pledged. The total number of Ethereum beacon chain validators has exceeded 560000.In addition, the Ethereum Beacon Chain ETH pledge APR (annual return rate) is 4.65%.L2BEAT data shows that as of now, the total lockup volume on Ethereum Layer2 is $9.17 billion, up 0.23% in the past 7 days. Among them, the largest lock-in volume is the expansion plan, ArbitrumOne, which is approximately 6.002 billion US dollars, accounting for 65.88%. The second largest lock-in volume is Optimism, which is 1.954 billion US dollars, accounting for 21.45%.The Ethereum Exchange showed a net transfer out status within 24 hours, with a net transfer out amount of 7.1344 million US dollars; Bitcoin experienced a net transfer phenomenon, with a 24-hour net transfer of $10.1 million.In addition to the good performance of data on the chain, the application scenarios of Ethereum are also constantly expanding, bringing hope for further breakthroughs in the market.Headquartered in Zurich, SwitzerlandFinancial bank IncoreBank announced that it will provide customers with Ethereum pledge servicesThe bank stated that customers using its Ethereum pledge service must fully comply with the "Know Your Customer (KYC)" and anti money laundering (AML) compliance requirements.Mark Dambacher, CEO of IncoreBank, stated that the bank will provide customers with Ethereum pledge services through quarantine wallets and comply with regulatory and tax regulations.However, although the Ethereum market is dominated by bullish sentiment, from today's market trend, the downward correction performance is still very obvious:Ethereum's price dropped as low as $1822 today, a daily decrease of 1.61%, while Bitcoin's price dropped as low as $27790, a daily decrease of 0.46%.Greeks.live macro researcher Adam tweeted that despite the upcoming upgrade in Shanghai, the implied volatility IV of Ethereum options has actually experienced a significant decline, with a drop of up to 8% in the past two days.He believes that the main reason for the decline in IV is the decrease in market liquidity caused by the Easter holiday. However, at the current level of volatility, it is abnormal for monthly IV to fall to the same level as Bitcoin, and a large number of users are adding positions to short the future volatility level.

The potential inflation in the United States did not quickly drop to the Federal Reserve's 2% target, and there are signs that the economy is slowing under the impact of aggressive interest rate hikes. There is a fierce debate within the Federal Reserve to adjust the final step of the interest rate hike cycle

As Bitcoin and Ethereum continue to dominate the cryptocurrency market, traders and investors are closely monitoring their price trends. Over the weekend, Bitcoin and Ethereum have been trading within a narrow range, causing some concerns among traders

Last year, Bitcoin encountered Waterloo, and this year there is a great momentum for the king to return. On April 11th, the price of Bitcoin broke through $30000 at around 8:30, an increase of over 5%

Bitcoin has plummeted again! As of 18:10 on January 24th, the price of Bitcoin has dropped below $34000 per coin, marking the first time since July last year. The past week has seen a drop of over 20%, and this year it has fallen by nearly 30%, almost halving from the historical high of $68928.9 in November 2021.Analysts point out that since the beginning of this year, the higher intensity of regulation by global regulatory agencies on cryptocurrency assets, including Bitcoin, as well as the strengthening expectations of the Federal Reserve's tightening monetary policy, and the widespread selling of US technology stocks, have been the main reasons for Bitcoin's sharp decline.Falling below $34000Coindesk

Bitcoin is currently the most widely used digital currency. It was born on January 3, 2009 and is a peer-to-peer (P2P) digital cryptocurrency with a total of 21 million pieces. The Bitcoin network releases a certain amount of coins every 10 minutes and is expected to reach its limit by 2140. Bitcoin rose nearly 4.6 million times and was referred to as "digital gold" by investors. As of now, the total market value of Bitcoin has exceeded RMB 374.8 billion. Bitcoin is highly favored by technology enthusiasts due to its decentralized, global circulation, low transaction costs, and anonymous circulation characteristics. Recently, traditional financial institutions such as Wall Street and multinational central banks have started researching Bitcoin blockchain technology, and the People's Bank of China has also announced plans to develop digital currencies. The Japanese government officially recognizes Bitcoin as a legal payment method, and more and more Japanese businesses are accepting Bitcoin payments.characteristic

Due to market expectations that the Federal Reserve will adopt more lenient policies, cryptocurrency prices have rebounded since the beginning of this year.On Tuesday (April 11th), Bitcoin prices broke through a critical level and reached their highest point since the accelerated decline last summer. With bulls once again dominating the market, prices may continue to rise in the short term.Bitcoin has risen 6% in the past 24 hours to $30100. For several weeks, Bitcoin has been trading sideways at around $28000, and prices have since risen again. Since the beginning of this year, Bitcoin has risen by 80%, sparking expectations of a possible new bull market.Naeem Aslam, Chief Investment Officer of ZayeCapital Markets, said: "The current price pattern is expected to attract a lot of attention, and investors will develop a 'fear of missing opportunities' mentality. At the time of the significant rebound in Bitcoin prices, many investors have already missed opportunities. Investors may make some profit taking at the current price level, but based on the upward momentum, prices are highly likely to continue to riseGoing out of the consolidation stage, Bitcoin may further riseSince a series of company thunderstorms shook the cryptocurrency industry in June last year, Bitcoin prices have not been able to exceed $30000. Therefore, for traders, breaking this psychological level now is a bullish signal. At present, bulls firmly control the situation, and in the highly liquid and speculative Bitcoin futures market, most positions are betting on further price increases, and many short positions have been eliminated.Many Bitcoin futures positions, including short positions betting on price declines, are built with borrowed money, and if the price trend contradicts the bet, traders may be forced to close their positions. According to Coinglas data, over $150 million in short positions have been forcibly closed since Monday. In addition, as closing positions usually triggers automatic buy orders, this will add upward pressure to the already rising Bitcoin market.Most of Bitcoin's recent gains have been due to its sensitivity to macroeconomic factors and correlation with the stock market, but Bitcoin's performance far exceeds that of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and the S&P 500 Index.去年加密货币面临的一个主要阻力是美联储大幅加息，加息抑制了对比特币等风险更高的投资的需求。Due to market expectations that the Federal Reserve will adopt more lenient policies, cryptocurrency prices have rebounded since the beginning of this year.Investors are waiting for the Consumer Price Index (CPI) released on Wednesday and the Producer Price Index (PPI) released on Thursday to determine the next steps of the Federal Reserve.James Lavish, executive partner of Bitcoin Opportunity Fund, pointed out that traders speculate that CPI data may prompt the Federal Reserve to suspend interest rate hikes, thereby boosting high-risk assets such as Bitcoin. Prices exceeding $30000 also release bullish signals, and Bitcoin is likely to rise further.But the future trend of Bitcoin will not be smooth sailing. In order to ensure that Bitcoin can continue to rise for a period of time, it must maintain its current growth rate and consolidate above the next technological level. In addition, people are still paying attention to Bitcoin's performance for the rest of this week.Katie Stockton, executive partner of Fairlead Strategies, a technology research firm, said, "Bitcoin is coming out of the consolidation phase. If we can confirm breaking through the consolidation phase above $28100 this Sunday, we will shift to a short-term bullish stance and suggest preparing for a second resistance level near $35900 in the price rangeIn addition to Bitcoin, Ethereum, the second largest cryptocurrency, rose 3% to $1920, while smaller cryptocurrencies also rose, with Cardano up 5% and Polygon up 3%. Dog currency increased by 3%, while Chaigou currency increased by 2%.Encryption companies flocking to Hong KongAlthough Bitcoin is currently heavily regulated by regulatory agencies worldwide, it is surprising that one financial center is moving in the opposite direction: Hong Kong, China. During the Bitcoin speculative frenzy from 2020 to 2021, Hong Kong, like mainland China, held a skeptical attitude towards cryptocurrencies, ceding its position as the center of cryptocurrencies in East Asia to its competitor Singapore. All of this has changed since the new Hong Kong SAR government took office.In February of this year, the Hong Kong SAR government announced a new regulatory template for cryptofinance, which includes allowing individuals to invest in "large market value" tokens. This is an all-encompassing and exceptionally detailed system, and it can be said that Hong Kong aspires to become a leader in the cryptocurrency market, "said Kishore Bhindi, a Hong Kong resident lawyer for Linklaters' financial regulatory groupThe Financial Secretary of Hong Kong, Paul Chan, announced that the SAR government has allocated a budget of HKD 50 million (approximately $6.5 million) for the development of the Web3 ecosystem. The Hong Kong Monetary Authority and the Securities Regulatory Commission plan to hold a roundtable meeting on April 28th to "promote direct dialogue" and "share practical experience" with the industry.The Hong Kong Securities Regulatory Commission stated that operators of virtual asset trading platforms (including existing platforms that have meaningful and substantial business in Hong Kong before June 1, 2023) that plan to apply for licenses should start reviewing and modifying relevant systems and monitoring measures to prepare for the new system. Cryptocurrency operators quickly responded. Industry consulting firm Holland& Marie's partner Claire Wilson said, "Related companies are flocking to Hong Kong, and some larger participants have a 'fear of missing out' mentalityWilson pointed out that unlike Singapore, which relies on its vast ports and related businesses, the financial services industry is very important to Hong Kong, accounting for nearly a quarter of its GDP. This is also why Hong Kong is actively welcoming the Web3 era.In the long run, Hong Kong may be more interested in the application of encryption technology in traditional financial services, such as tokenized bonds and tokenized securities, "said Bindi from Nianlida Law FirmMetalphaTechnology Holding, a cryptocurrency broker, pointed out that allowing individual investors to trade large market tokens on exchanges licensed by the Securities and Futures Commission was a major milestone, and those who had originally planned to go to Singapore changed their minds.Singapore's experience in trying to cultivate a trustworthy encryption business is not very encouraging. Angela Ang, who previously worked for regulatory agencies in Singapore and is currently a senior policy advisor for blockchain intelligence company TRMLabs, stated that when the regulatory system was introduced in January 2020, only 11 out of 169 encryption service providers operating in Singapore have met the licensing requirements so far. The collapse of Terra/Luna, headquartered in Singapore, has reduced local enthusiasm for the industry.Ang pointed out that the proposed regulations in Hong Kong are not significantly different from those in Singapore, and some companies wishing to enter Hong Kong may not be able to obtain permits.But Ang still maintains an optimistic attitude, saying, "The most important thing is not to forget the prospects of the underlying technology, even though it is experiencing growth pains. Hong Kong used to be a wait-and-see attitude, but now may have learned from the mistakes of other countriesCombining cryptocurrency with Hong Kong's strong financial infrastructure and the huge savings held by individual investors may create a global cryptocurrency center for an exciting new field, but of course, everything may once again "turn to ashes".Article | Jack Denton, Craig MellowEditor | Guo LiqunCopyright Notice:Original articles by Barronschna are not allowed to be reprinted without permission.
