Daily Updates from FSInsightMay 25, 2022
  • Majors Bitcoin and Ethereum have been consolidating for the past couple of weeks, with BTC trading between ~29k and ~31k and ETH trading between ~1,900 and ~2,150. So far today, BTC is down .50% and ETH is down .46%, while most altcoins continue to bleed lower. Smart contract platforms Avalanche and Solana are down 3.95% and 3.28%, respectively. Despite general weakness in the altcoin market, Tron (TRX) has seen some relative outperformance, rising 3.68% today and 11.69% this week. This move seems to have originated from the announcement of Tron's USDD algorithmic stablecoin. The FOMC minutes later today at 2pm EST are worth keeping an eye on as it will likely lead to volatility.
  • The billionaire founder and CEO of the FTX crypto exchange, Sam Bankman-Fried, revealed in a podcast interview that he intends to give "north of $100 million" with a "soft ceiling" of $1 billion to bankroll the person running against former president Donald Trump in the 2024 presidential election. According to government watchdog Opensecrets, a $1 billion donation would break existing donation records multiple times over. This backing won't be SBF's first political donation. SBF donated $5.2 million to Biden's 2020 election campaign and backed the political action committee Protect our Future, set up in January 2022. In April, this PAC spent $9 million supporting Democratic candidates. 
  • Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has announced a $4.5 billion fund for crypto and blockchain startups, stating that $1.5 billion would go to seed investments and $3 billion would go to venture investments. The firm is not deterred by the current market conditions, with general partner Arianna Simpson stating, "bear markets are often when the best opportunities come about when people are actually able to focus on building technology rather than getting distracted by short-term price activity". A16z already has three funds based on the industry, the first of which was launched four years ago. This brings their total capital dedicated to crypto and blockchain to over $7.6 billion. 
Daily Technical Strategy - Mark Newton, CMT

Tron (TRXUSD) has made steady progress in recent days, rising three out of the last four days at a time when many Coins have languished. This recent strength has helped TRXUSD to overtake Shiba as the 14th largest Cryptocurrrency by market capitalization at $7.4 billion, and its technical pattern has started to show some technical promise in recent days. Daily TRX charts show its dramatic spike into 2021 highs and subsequent decline which now has managed to make two separate rebound attempts that have held right near the ongoing downtrend line from April 2021 peaks. This large triangle pattern will be worthwhile to keep an eye on to gauge breakouts that can lead to acceleration. Near-term, Tron's recent rally has brought it back to key resistance just under 0.09 to 0.0928 which will be critical to overcome to generate a larger buy signal, driving a rally back up to .13, which would be a 44% gain from current levels. TRX has shown a steadily increasing pattern of higher lows in recent months, and dips down to .07 should be used to buy dips. Only a decline back under .06 would postpone this rally, but the odds favor an upcoming breakout, and a move above this trendline should provide a green light for progress technically.
