Recent on-chain data shows a significant drop in the cost of transferring assets on the Ethereum net...Recent on-chain data shows a significant drop in the cost of transferring assets on the Ethereum network. Santiment, an on-chain analytics firm, noted the average Ethereum transaction fees have plummeted to $0.4088, the lowest level since late August. This suggests reduced network activity. While high transaction volume is often associated with bull markets, low fees in a down market can be a positive indicator for the mid-to-long-term price outlook. Lower fees make it cheaper for new buyers to enter the market, which could potentially support a price rebound. Ethereum's price has been hovering around $2,700 since the beginning of the month, following the recent market downturn. Whether this low fee period will spark a fresh Ethereum price surge, mirroring the rebound after the August low, remains to be seen.

Ethereum price is showing positive signs above the $2,650 zone. ETH is rising like Bitcoin and might...Ethereum price is showing positive signs above the $2,650 zone. ETH is rising like Bitcoin and might start another increase in the near term. Ethereum is still showing positive signs above the $2,620 zone. The price is trading above $2,680 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. There was a break above a key contracting triangle with resistance at $2,700 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD (data feed via Kraken). The pair could start a decent upward move if it settles above $2,725 and $2,755. Ethereum Price Eyes Upside Break Ethereum price remained supported above the $2,500 level and recently started a decent upward move, like Bitcoin. ETH broke the $2,620 resistance to move into a short-term bullish zone. There was a break above a key contracting triangle with resistance at $2,700 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The price was able to surpass the $2,720 level and tested the 50% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,845 swing high to the $2,605 low. Ethereum price is now trading above $2,680 and the 100-hourly Simple Moving Average. On the upside, the price seems to be facing hurdles near the $2,725 level. The first major resistance is near the $2,755 level or the 61.8% Fib retracement level of the downward move from the $2,845 swing high to the $2,605 low. The main resistance is now forming near $2,800 or $2,820. A clear move above the $2,820 resistance might send the price toward the $2,880 resistance. An upside break above the $2,880 resistance might call for more gains in the coming sessions. In the stated case, Ether could rise toward the $2,920 resistance zone or even $3,000 in the near term. Another Decline In ETH? If Ethereum fails to clear the $2,755 resistance, it could start another decline. Initial support on the downside is near the $2,700 level. The first major support sits near the $2,660 zone. A clear move below the $2,660 support might push the price toward the $2,620 support. Any more losses might send the price toward the $2,550 support level in the near term. The next key support sits at $2,500. Technical Indicators Hourly MACD – The MACD for ETH/USD is gaining momentum in the bullish zone. Hourly RSI – The RSI for ETH/USD is now above the 50 zone. Major Support Level – $2,660 Major Resistance Level – $2,755

A YouTube channel, More Crypto Online, analyzed Dogecoin's price structure in a video on Wednes...A YouTube channel, More Crypto Online, analyzed Dogecoin's price structure in a video on Wednesday, suggesting the meme-based cryptocurrency is at a critical juncture. The analyst, using Elliott Wave analysis and identifying potential consolidation patterns, notes that Dogecoin has been stuck in a sideways trading range for the past ten days after a significant sell-off. The price dipped into a previously identified support zone, but failed to push above the key resistance level of $0.34. The analyst believes Dogecoin may be forming a corrective pattern (A-B-C). If so, the C-wave could potentially reach a low slightly below the A-wave low, potentially around $0.233 to $0.234. Crucially, the support at $0.22 is vital to maintaining a bullish outlook. A drop below this level would significantly weaken the bullish case, and a break below $0.204 would invalidate it entirely. To confirm a potential trend reversal, Dogecoin would need to surpass certain 'signal lines,' starting with $0.293, and ideally breaking above $0.342. The analyst notes that while the broader cryptocurrency market remains relatively flat, Dogecoin seems more resilient than some other altcoins, like Solana, which has declined more significantly. Dogecoin traded at $0.25 at the time of the analysis.

フィデリティ・インベストメンツのグローバルマクロ部長、ジュリアン・ティマー氏は、火曜日に発表されたメモの中で、変化する経済状況が市場、中央銀行政策、そしてBitcoinと金のリターンにどのような影響を...フィデリティ・インベストメンツのグローバルマクロ部長、ジュリアン・ティマー氏は、火曜日に発表されたメモの中で、変化する経済状況が市場、中央銀行政策、そしてBitcoinと金のリターンにどのような影響を与える可能性があるかを考察しています。S&P 500が新たな高値を更新し、いわゆる「トランプ・トレード」が方向転換する中、ティマー氏は、財政政策、インフレ、そして「停滞」市場環境におけるリスク資産の役割に関する精緻な洞察を提供しています。トランプ効果ティマー氏は、2025年の最初の6週間は予期せぬ市場の動きと、異例の「ノイズ対シグナル比」の高さを示していると指摘しています。今年の市場の支配的な予想は、「金利上昇、ドル高、米国株式の上昇」を予想していましたが、それが急激に反転しました。彼は、「2025年らしいことに、金利上昇、ドル高、米国株式の上昇というコンセンサス取引は、その反対になったようだ」と述べています。ティマー氏は、年末に急騰したBitcoinは、3か月間のリターンランキングでトップに位置しており、金、中国株式、商品、欧州市場がそれに続きます。一方、下位には、米ドルと米国債がランク付けされています。関連読書：「Bitcoinが50万ドルに：スタンダード・チャータードが2028年の目標を倍増」S&P 500が過去最高値を更新しているにもかかわらず、ティマー氏は、大統領選後の楽観ムードの後、これは「消化期間」であると述べています。彼は、主要な指標の下にある市場は、はるかに決定的なものではないと説明しています。ティマー氏によると、均等加重指数は停滞しており、株式の55%しか50日移動平均線を上回っていません。「センチメントは強気、信用スプレッドは狭く、株式リスクプレミアム（ERP）は10番目のデシール、VIXは15に達しています。市場は成功を期待しているように見える。」ティマー氏は、2024年の収益成長率は11%と堅調だったものの、見直しは不十分に見え、長期金利が5%またはそれを超えるとどうなるかという懸念が残っていると指摘しています。ティマー氏の分析の中で最も重要な要素の1つは、連邦準備制度の政策です。彼は、最近の消費者物価指数（CPI）報告書（前年比コアインフレ率は3.5%）を、連邦準備制度が現状維持を続けるというほぼ全会一致の指標だと指摘しています。「今は連邦準備制度がしばらくの間現状維持になるとほぼ確実です。私の見解では、まさにその通りです。中立値が4%である場合、潜在的な可能性を考えると、連邦準備制度はそれよりわずかに高い水準にあるべきです。 ‘3は2の新バージョン’。」彼は、1966年から1968年の時期の政策ミス（金利の引き下げが早すぎて、最終的にインフレの芽を摘めなかったこと）を例に、早期の「政策転換」の可能性を警告しています。連邦準備制度が現状維持を続けることが確実なため、ティマー氏は、金利の次の市場要因は長期金利になると考えています。具体的には、彼は2つのシナリオ間の緊張を認識しています。1つは、膨大な財政支出と上昇する期間プレミアム（株式評価に影響を及ぼす）を特徴とするシナリオ、もう1つは財政規律を重視し、長期債券利回りを抑制するであろうシナリオです。ティマー氏は、新たな政権下の政府支出が雇用データにどのように影響するか、週間失業保険請求件数は債券市場にとってより重要な焦点になる可能性があると述べています。関連読書：「Bitcoinは27万3千ドルに達する最後の下げ相場か？市場ベテランがそう考えている」ティマー氏は、ブルームバーグ商品スポット指数に潜在的な強気パターン（ヘッドアンドショルダーズボトム）があることを指摘しています。彼は決定的な転換とは呼んでいませんが、コモディティは依然として広範な長期上昇トレンドにあり、インフレ圧力が高まったり、財政状況が緩和されれば、再び投資家の関心を集める可能性があると指摘しています。金はここ数年「大きな勝ち組」であり、多くの懐疑論者の予想を上回っているとのこと。「2020年以来、金はS&P 500とほぼ同じリターンを上げているにもかかわらず、ボラティリティは低くなっています。私の見解では、金は、債券が損なわれたままになる可能性がある体制においても、多様化されたポートフォリオの重要な構成要素のままである。」ティマー氏は、世界の通貨供給量の増加と実質金利の低下の中で、金が重要な3,000ドルのレベルに挑戦すると見ています。歴史的に金は実質金利と強い負の相関関係を示しているものの、ティマー氏は、金の最近の強さは、特に中国とロシアの中央銀行による地政学的需要という財政動向、ではなく、金融動向を反映している可能性があると信じています。Bitcoin対金ティマー氏によると、金とBitcoinの両方の上昇は「通貨インフレについて多くの議論を引き起こしています」。しかし、彼は「通貨量」（通貨供給量）と「通貨価格」（物価インフレ）の違いを明確にしています。「この分析のポイントは、時間経過とともに従来の資産価格の増加は、（一部のBitcoin信者の好きな趣味である）通貨の毀損によって説明できないことを示すことです。」と彼は書いています。ティマー氏のチャートは、名目上のM2と名目上のGDPは過去100年以上にわたってほぼ同じ動きを示しているが、消費者物価指数（CPI）は通貨供給の増加にやや遅れていることを示しています。彼は、資産価格を単独でM2と調整すると、誤った結論に至る可能性があると警告しています。それでも、彼の分析では、Bitcoinと金はどちらもM2と強い相関関係を持っているものの、その方法は異なります。「M2と金の間に線形相関があるのに対し、M2とBitcoinの間にはべき乗則の相関があるのは興味深い。同じチームの異なるプレーヤーです。」ティマー氏は、1970年以降の金の長期パフォーマンスを強調し、多くの債券ポートフォリオによって創出された価値に追いつくか、それを上回っていることを指摘しています。彼は、主権債市場が財政赤字と長期金利の上昇によって圧迫されている場合、金の役割は「債券に対するヘッジ」であると考えています。ティマー氏のメモは、Bitcoinの好調なパフォーマンスは、金や広範なマクロ経済環境とは切り離して見るべきではないことを強調しています。金利が変動しており、政策立案者が財政赤字に苦しんでいるため、投資家は従来の60/40ポートフォリオモデルを再評価せざるを得ないかもしれません。彼は、過去に通貨供給の拡大がインフレを促進したことが頻繁にあるものの、その関係は必ずしも1対1ではないことを強調しています。ティマー氏の見解では、Bitcoinの急騰は、金融政策だけでなく財政的な懸念が資産価格を押し上げているという市場認識を反映している可能性があります。「そして、点線のオレンジ色の線と緑色の線をみると、Bitcoinは、一晩の通貨が300年以上かけて作ったのと同じ価値を加えた」と彼は結論付けています。報道時点では、BTCは9万5,700ドルで取引されていました。フィーチャー画像：YouTube、チャート：TradingView.com
