Shiba Inu (SHIB): What’s happening? Is Bitcoin’s (BTC) resistance unbreakable? Ethereum (ETH) on the brink of a fundamental crisis?

U.Today – Price has moved little to nothing over the past few weeks, continuing to remain stuck in a stalemate. SHIB has made multiple attempts to break out of its current trading range but has failed to build much momentum, which has investors and traders concerned.

Analysis of available market and chain data shows that SHIB is currently trading in a tiny trading range, with its price hovering around $0.0000134. The 200-day and 100-day exponential moving average (EMA) are aligned with resistance levels at $0.00001813 and $0.00001597, respectively, which are worth watching.

A more decisive uptrend could occur if SHIB is able to break above these levels, which could signal an end to this prolonged period of stagnation. Support at $0.00001200 remains key on the downside. SHIB could enter a deeper correction if it breaks below this level, which could lead to further declines.

This could further prolong the current stalemate, which would be particularly worrying for those looking for a bullish reversal. Chain indicators indicate a lack of significant buying interest, which is consistent with the mixed overall market sentiment surrounding SHIB. With traders being cautious and waiting for a clear directional move before committing to up-to-date positions, trading volumes remained relatively low.

The 50-day exponential moving average on the chart, which is $61,000, is a significant resistance level that Bitcoin has recently hit. Bitcoin has failed to break through this barrier four times in a row, despite repeated attempts indicating that this resistance may be stronger than initially thought. For traders and investors, the failure to break above $61,000 is worrisome, as it could signal a period of inactivity for the Bitcoin price.

A common technical indicator is the 50 EMA, which can indicate weakening bullish momentum when the price struggles to break above it. This puts Bitcoin in a position where it could get stuck in a tiny trading range and be unable to gain the momentum needed to go up. The broader market environment is making things worse, as there are signs of increasing complexity and unpredictability in the situation.

Lack of mighty buying interest and reduced trading volume are two possible reasons for the market’s failure to break through this resistance level.

Ethereum transaction fees have fallen to a five-year low, raising the possibility of a fundamental crisis. The broader market strength and economic model of the network could be significantly impacted by this drop in fees.

According to the charts, the ETH supply has increased by 58,292 ETH in the last 30 days, with an annual issuance rate of 939,000 ETH. However, the burn rate, which is crucial to limit supply and maintain scarcity, has decreased to 229,000 ETH per year. With an annual net supply boost of 0.59%, Ethereum’s value proposition, which has been focused primarily on deflation since the switch to Ethereum 2, may be challenged.

The short-term benefits to users from low transaction costs may be offset by reduced incentives for validators and a decrease in the overall security and stability of the network. The reward structure for validators becomes less attractive when fees are generated less frequently, which may result in a decrease in network participation. In a proof-of-stake system, where validator incentives are necessary to maintaining network security, this scenario is particularly worrisome.

The core elements of Ethereum’s value, such as network security and scarcity, could be at risk if this trend continues, potentially leading to a prolonged period of stagnation or even decline. A key issue that needs to be addressed to stop Ethereum’s market dominance from eroding further is the continued decline in fees and burn rate.
