What is the latest situation in the market?
Bitcoin (BTC) is trading within a corrective pattern and is facing resistance at the $22,000 area. Bitcoin has mostly been moving upwards since hitting the local low of $17,622 on June 18. The upward move on July 18 resulted in a break above a descending resistance line that has been present since March. However, BTC failed to sustain its gains and pulled back after hitting a local high of $25,211. Consolidating over $21,000 at the time of writing.
Meanwhile, the news that marked today came from Ethereum. A roadmap has been published on the altcoin project. According to a blog posted by the Ethereum Foundation on Thursday, as we reported on cryptokoin.com, the “Bellatrix” upgrade before the Ethereum merger will be activated on September 6, followed by the Ethereum mainnet merge from September 10-20.
“The Merge” aims to shift the Ethereum blockchain from the existing proof-of-work (PoW) mechanism to the proof-of-stake (PoS) model, which is a faster, more energy-efficient and safer way to scale projects. Ethereum has completed a series of work to convert the testnet to PoS and will eventually move the mainnet to PoS. The blog said that the Ethereum mainnet consolidation will happen in two steps, the “Bellatrix” and “Paris” upgrades. The Bellatrix upgrade puts Ethereum’s consensus layer – the Beacon Chain, which introduced the PoS mechanism to Ethereum – in a merging-ready state.
