Crypto Trader Issues Bitcoin Warning, Says Ethereum Liquid Staking Project Flashing Short-Term Bullish Signal

A popular crypto trader says a liquid staking service for the Ethereum (ETH) blockchain is flashing a short-term bullish signal.

The analyst Ali Martinez tells his 60,600 followers on the social media platform X that the Tom DeMark (TD) Sequential indicator recently presented a buy signal on Lido DAO’s (LDO) 3-day chart.

“If LDO can hold above $1.85, we could see it rebound toward $3!”

Traders use the TD Sequential Indicator to predict potential trend reversals for tokens based on the closing prices of their 13 previous bars or candles.

LDO is trading at $2.05 at time of writing. The 63rd-ranked crypto asset by market cap is up 2.5% in the past week.

Martinez also updates his outlook on Bitcoin (BTC), noting that the top crypto asset presented two sell signals on the 12-hour chart.

“A death cross between the 50 and 100 SMA (simple moving average) and a red 9 candlestick from the TD Sequential.

If BTC falls below $63,300, brace for possible dives to $61,000 or even $59,000.”

A death cross occurs when the 50-day moving average crosses below the 200-day moving average, a sign that the asset could enter a more pronounced bear phase.

Bitcoin is trading at $64,676 at time of writing. The top-ranked crypto asset by market cap is up nearly 2% in the past week.

Litecoin halving completes as LTC sees increased payments adoption

Image
Litecoin block rewards have now halved to 6.25 LTC as the halving clock is reset for another four years. The Litecoin halving event has been completed with block rewards now halved at 6.25 Litecoin (LTC) per block.  On Aug. 2, the Litecoin blockchain went through its automated halving procedure at block 2,520,000. LTC miners are now getting half the rewards and the clock has been reset for the next halving in roughly four years' time. Litecoin founder Charlie Lee commented on the discrepancies between the different halving countdown timers, suggesting that the NiceHash one was the most accurate. However, all of them agreed on an Aug. 2 date. This is funny. I googled "Litecoin Block Halving Countdown" and checked the first 4 hits. The ETA for the halving is all over the map! From my quick calculation, I believe NiceHash's countdown is the most accurate. I expect the halving to occur in about a 1 day, 2 hours, and 30… pic.twitter.com/7lvOKCtiOh — Charlie Lee ️️ (@
