The Most Important Daily
Data for Digital Assets

Daily Updates from FSInsightJanuary 27, 2022
  • The global crypto market displayed optimistic price action into the FOMC meeting yesterday, only to reverse said gains and finish the trading day where it started. Compared to 24 hours ago, the overall crypto market cap is down 5.2%, as Bitcoin and Ethereum trade 3.0% and 2.9% lower, respectively. It's likely that the selling pressure was heavily influenced by short-term holders (STH) taking advantage of the brief moment of profitability, with STH SOPR showing heavy resistance at par the entire day.
  • Russian President Putin hardened his stance in favor of continuing the country's involvement in the digital assets economy, refusing a request from the country's central bank to put a blanket ban on investing in digital assets. At the same time, he also laid out a framework by which the country will regulated its Bitcoin miners, highlighting advantages that the energy-rich country can offer its miners for a competitive advantage in the sphere. The Kremlin is hoping to work with the central bank in order to come up with an effective regulatory environment to help further Russia's position in crypto.
  • The SEC is investigating three crypto lending platforms, allegedly over whether the lending services should be considered securities. If the Commission finds that the services are used as securities, then they need to be registered with the SEC. Another concern is the high-yield nature of the services, raising questions around the security of investors' deposits in the platforms. It is worthwhile to note that the SEC is not accusing any company of wrongdoing, and that the investigation is likely to be collaborative to help tighten up crypto lenders' consumer protection.
Daily Technical Strategy

Decentraland has finally begun to show some evidence of bottoming out following a near 65% collapse in the last two months. MANAUSD had been one of last quarter's strongest performing coins, so the ability to stabilize and take the lead in strengthening is important at a time when many coins look to have hit initial support. Gains look likely in the short run up to 2.63, which lines up near lows from the first week of January along with an area of trendline resistance (Former support now becomes resistance) Strength up above $3.20 would be a significant near-term positive for MANA, allowing for a push up to 3.80 or even $4.30 without much trouble. On the downside, 1.70 stands out as the most important area of support to hold on any pullback.
