TA: Bitcoin Grinds Higher, Here’s Why Dips Turned Attractive

Bitcoin price started a steady increase above the $36,000 resistance against the US Dollar. BTC even broke $37,000 and it is now showing positive signs.

  • Bitcoin gained bullish momentum above the $35,000 and $36,000 resistance levels.
  • The price is currently trading well above $36,000 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
  • There was a break above a major bearish trend line with resistance near $36,000 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Kraken).
  • The pair could correct lower, but the bulls are likely to remain active near $36,000.

Bitcoin Price Gains Pace

Bitcoin formed a base above the $34,000 zone and it started a steady increase. BTC broke the $35,000 and $36,000 resistance levels to move into a positive zone.

There was a break above a major bearish trend line with resistance near $36,000 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair climbed above the 50% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $40,420 swing high to $33,630 low.

The price even broke the $37,000 resistance zone. However, the bears are fighting near the $38,000 level. It seems like the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the key decline from the $40,420 swing high to $33,630 low is acting as a resistance.

On the upside, an immediate resistance is near the $37,500 level. The first major resistance is near the $38,000 level and the recent high. A clear break above the $38,000 zone could set the pace for a larger increase. The next major resistance is near the $40,000 level. An intermediate resistance could be near the $38,800 level.

Dips Supported in BTC?

If bitcoin fails to clear the $38,000 resistance, it could correct lower. An initial support on the downside is near the $36,500 level.

The first major support is near the $36,000 level and the 100 hourly simple moving average. If there is a downside break below the $36,000 support, the price could decline towards the $35,200 support zone in the coming sessions. Any more losses could clear the path for a retest of the $34,000 level.

Technical indicators:

Hourly MACD – The MACD is slowly losing pace in the bullish zone.

Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for BTC/USD is sliding towards the 50 level.

Major Support Levels – $36,000, followed by $35,500.

Major Resistance Levels – $37,500, $38,000 and $40,000.

DeFi isn’t dead, it just needs to fix these 3 critical problems

It’s been a rough year for DeFi, and it may not get any better until projects focus more on security, regulation and usability. The persistent challenges  decentralized finance  face have been well documented by a handful of analysts and the recent collapse of the Terra ecosystem re-enforced the fact that something is critically wrong with DeFi. I think DeFi today is completely broken for 99% of the population. The promise of a more transparent financial system has been overtaken by greed. UST/LUNA is just the latest in a string of bad developments: — Peter Yang (@petergyang) May 11, 2022 Let's take a look at what experts say DeFi needs to do in order to have another revival.  Improved usability To date, the promise of open and uncensored access to a global decentralized financial system has been largely hampered by the complicated interface, confusing multi-step staking processes and lack of clarity surrounding the yields on various tokens.

ENS DAO delegates offer perspective on DAO governance and decentralized identity

AlphaWallet CEO and Spruce co-founder talk about their roles as contributors to the Ethereum Name Service following the project's recent airdrop. Earlier this month, the Ethereum Name Service, or ENS, formed a decentralized autonomous organization, or DAO, for the ENS community.  Cointelegraph spoke to two ENS DAO delegates who applied for the opportunity to represent the community and stay involved in the decision making process: Victor Zhang, CEO of AlphaWallet, an open source Ethereum wallet, and Gregory Rocco, co-founder of Spruce, a decentralized ID and data toolkit for developers.

Zhang initially sought to help ENS by offering Alpha Wallet as a user-friendly tool for  resolving .eth names and cryptocurrency wallet addresses. Essentially, if a user inputs an .eth name in the AlphaWallet, it will show the wallet address, and vice versa using reverse resolution. Alpha...
