Bitcoin is consolidating round $29,000 because the RSI indicator has now entered a interval that has traditionally preceded outsized returns on funding for long-term traders. Rekt Capital exhibits that when the RSI has reached this degree beforehand and reversed, together with January 2015, December 2018, and March 2020, it has marked a macro backside.
Moreover, Glassnode exhibits that Bitcoin is approaching a area that’s under the common value foundation of all holders on-chain. Beforehand, when Bitcoin enters this area it has introduced 4 generational shopping for alternatives. Each of those indicators counsel that the crypto markets may very well be nearing a backside for this bear-market we’re in.
The established DeFi lending platform, Aave, has introduced the launch of Lens Protocol, a decentralized social graph that makes use of NFT belongings to energy social media platforms. It lets customers personal their content material by storing it as NFTs inside a crypto pockets.
Lens Protocol have chosen to construct on Polygon, because it allows quicker and cheaper transactions than Ethereum. This makes Polygon extra appropriate for a social community constructed round a probably massive variety of NFT belongings.
Aave CEO Stani Kulechov mentioned, “We imagine that content material creators ought to personal their audiences in a permissionless style, the place anybody can construct new person experiences through the use of the identical on-chain social graph and information.”
Many declare Lens Protocol is a competitor to centralised social media platforms like Twitter, because it powers decentralised social media platforms. Final yr, he tweeted “Since Jack Dorsey goes to construct Aave on Bitcoin, Aave ought to construct Twitter on Ethereum.” This clearly was not a throwaway remark as Stani is now constructing a decentralised social media rival, however he has chosen Polygon as an alternative. I feel Elon Musk might be excited by integrating Lens Protocol into Twitter’s infrastructure, as he’s so captivated with making Twitter decentralised.
