Lido DAO Surges 25% Following Grayscale’s Investment InitiativeIntroduction
Lido DAO ( MIL:LDO ) has captured the spotlight with a remarkable 25% price surge, catalyzed by Grayscale Investments’ announcement of its new Lido DAO Trust. This move strengthens Lido’s position in the staking and DeFi ecosystem while reinforcing its relevance in Ethereum’s expanding infrastructure. Let’s delve into the technical and fundamental factors driving this rally.
Grayscale’s Strategic Investment
Grayscale Investments, renowned for its expertise in crypto asset management, has introduced the Grayscale Lido DAO Trust alongside the Grayscale Optimism Trust. These vehicles offer institutional and accredited investors exposure to governance tokens such as MIL:LDO and $OP.
Focus on Staking and Ethereum Scaling: Lido DAO’s liquid staking solution democratizes Ethereum staking, making it accessible to more users. This, in turn, strengthens Ethereum’s security and DeFi capabilities.
Grayscale’s Commitment to Innovation: With over 25 crypto investment products, Grayscale’s inclusion of MIL:LDO underlines its growing focus on projects that enhance the Ethereum ecosystem, positioning Lido as a pivotal player.
- Layer-2 Ecosystem Synergy: By pairing MIL:LDO and NASDAQ:OP in its investment offerings, Grayscale highlights the importance of both staking and Layer-2 scaling solutions in Ethereum’s future growth.
Lido DAO has rapidly emerged as a key player in the DeFi landscape by providing a liquid staking mechanism for Ethereum. This approach allows users to stake ETH while retaining liquidity through stETH tokens, which represent their staked ETH and rewards. Key fundamentals include:
1. Market Performance:
- Current Price: $2.278
- Market Cap: $2.03 billion
- Trading Volume (24H): $491.8 million
2. Staking Dominance:
- Lido DAO’s protocol holds a significant share of Ethereum’s staking ecosystem, enhancing its relevance as Ethereum transitions into its proof-of-stake (PoS) era.
- Recent updates have streamlined its support to Ethereum and Polygon, ensuring focused development in high-impact areas.
3. Governance and Development:
- As a DAO, MIL:LDO holders actively participate in decision-making, reinforcing decentralized governance.
- Frequent audits of its smart contracts underline its commitment to security and transparency.
Technical Analysis
MIL:LDO is up 20% in the last 24 hours, breaking through key resistance levels. The token trades near $2.27, reflecting increased investor confidence following Grayscale’s announcement.
The Relative Strength Index (RSI) is at 65 indicating a bullish sentiment, though approaching overbought territory, suggesting a potential consolidation phase.
The current uptrend finds support at $1.999 (38.2% Fibonacci retracement level), with resistance anticipated at $2.630. Similarly, A spike in trading volume reinforces the upward momentum, hinting at sustained investor interest.
With an ATH of approximately $18, MIL:LDO presents a compelling entry point for long-term investors ahead of a broader altcoin rally.
Why Lido DAO Matters
Lido DAO plays a critical role in Ethereum’s ecosystem by addressing two major challenges:
- Scalability: Liquid staking ensures Ethereum remains secure and decentralized while enabling users to participate without locking funds.
- Adoption: By simplifying staking and enhancing liquidity, Lido supports Ethereum’s adoption across DeFi applications.
Conclusion
Grayscale’s introduction of the Lido DAO Trust underscores the growing institutional interest in Ethereum-centric projects like Lido. From its robust staking infrastructure to its DAO-driven governance, Lido is poised to capitalize on Ethereum’s continued growth. Technically and fundamentally, MIL:LDO offers a promising outlook, with bullish momentum and strong fundamentals paving the way for potential upside.
As the market gears up for a broader altcoin rally, MIL:LDO remains a token to watch, supported by its innovative staking model and growing institutional backing.
ETH-D
Potential c&h on ETHUSD would have a target around 7kFor now this is just a speculative cup and handle pattern, plenty of them have gotten to this level and even completed the handle with a candle or two above the rimline of the cup and still ended up falling and eventually being nullified, so there’s no absolute guarantee this will play out this way. However, as it seems we may be now entering phase 2 of the bull markets uptrends, It is certainly probable this could very well play out just like this. The channel ether is just now breaking up from that I posted a chart on the other day(which. Will link below) has a big enough breakout target/measured move that it should bring price action up above the rimline of its bigger cup and handle pattern here. We will see soon enough I’m sure. Only thing I see prolonging such an outcome would be some sort of unforeseen black swan. *not financial advice*
XRP updateHi Guys
As we have specified the purchase range for you before, we said that if the range is maintained, he can serve his opponent.
Now you can see that with the lack of daily stabilization, it has returned below the range and is placed in a triangle.
With failure, he can move to the specified goals.
We will be happy if you give us energy with likes and comments.
OG is trying to return to the trendTo date, the market has consolidated in anticipation of passing the middle of the month and determining the direction for the end of the year. The decision on the US interest rate may have a big impact. But for now, there is still an opportunity for the growth of individual coins with technical signals. TROY is showing itself well, aiming for a breakout of 0.0075. But in this article I want to consider OG, which from the second bottom at the key support of $ 5 can give a trend and catch up with TROY in dynamics. With a successful exit above the previously formed trend line, the nearest target will be a test of the 7.5-9 range. With a successful opening of the second half of the month above 7.5, you can expect the trend to consolidate and further overshoot. For now, the pressure of the unprocessed targets of the bears at 3000-3100 on the ether and 75-85k on the cue ball remains, in connection with which a new wave of sales at the change of the week may be deeper, with a payback after the decision on the US interest rate, in case the dollar weakens. In this negative scenario, OG can test $3.5-$4 where it will be possible to make a top-up, as it was possible to do with TROY. In the medium term, both TROY and OG are good tools with probable.
VIB also gave a new opportunity to re-buy profitably, which, in an optimistic scenario, can turn a weekly candle into a bullish one in order to continue the trend by 0.15 due to the opening of the week above 0.1.
Whether it can rise above 3831.12-3996.22 is the key
Hello, traders.
If you "Follow", you can always get new information quickly.
Please also click "Boost".
Have a nice day today.
-------------------------------------
(ETHUSDT 1D chart)
There are several lines on the chart, but what is important to look at at the current location is whether it can rise above the 3831.12-3996.22 section.
The 3831.12-3996.22 section is a section composed of HA-High and BW(100) indicators, so it can be seen as a high point section.
If it rises above the high point section and maintains the price, it is highly likely to show a stepwise upward trend.
However, if it fails to rise above the high point range or falls above the high point range, there is a possibility that it will form a high point and turn into a downtrend, so caution is required when trading.
Therefore, it is necessary to check the correlation between the high point range (the range consisting of the HA-High, BW(100) indicators) and the M-Signal indicators of the 1M, 1W, and 1D charts to determine whether it is a movement that is turning into a downtrend or creating a pull back pattern.
Since the current high point range and the M-Signal indicator of the 1D chart are close, it can be seen that the possibility of turning into a downtrend is actually increasing.
Therefore, the key is whether it can maintain the price by rising above the high point range (3831.12-3996.22) this time and whether it can be supported near the M-Signal indicator of the 1D chart.
The next volatility period for ETH is around December 16th, so the point to watch is whether the price is maintained above the M-Signal indicator on the 1D chart.
-
If it falls below the M-Signal indicator on the 1D chart, it is expected to meet the M-Signal indicator on the 1W chart.
If the HA-Low and BW(0) indicators are generated at this time, it is a meaningful section.
-
Have a good time.
Thank you.
--------------------------------------------------
- Big picture
I used TradingView's INDEX chart to check the entire section of BTC.
(BTCUSD 12M chart)
Looking at the big picture, it seems to have been maintaining an upward trend following a pattern since 2015.
In other words, it is a pattern that maintains a 3-year bull market and faces a 1-year bear market.
Accordingly, the bull market is expected to continue until 2025.
-
(LOG chart)
Looking at the LOG chart, you can see that the upward trend is decreasing.
Accordingly, the 46K-48K range is expected to be a very important support and resistance range from a long-term perspective.
Therefore, we expect that we will not see prices below 44K-48K in the future.
-
The Fibonacci ratio on the left is the Fibonacci ratio of the uptrend that started in 2015.
In other words, it is the Fibonacci ratio of the first wave of the uptrend.
The Fibonacci ratio on the right is the Fibonacci ratio of the uptrend that started in 2019.
Therefore, it is expected that this Fibonacci ratio will be used until 2026.
-
No matter what anyone says, the chart has already been created and is already moving.
How to view and respond to this is up to you.
When the ATH is updated, there are no support and resistance points, so the Fibonacci ratio can be used appropriately.
However, although the Fibonacci ratio is useful for chart analysis, it is ambiguous when used as support and resistance.
This is because the user must directly select the important selection points required to create Fibonacci.
Therefore, since it is expressed differently depending on how the user specifies the selection points, it can be useful for chart analysis, but it can be seen as ambiguous when used for trading strategies.

ETH RSI Bearish Divergence? Daily TimeframeThe relative strength index (RSI) is a momentum indicator used in technical analysis. RSI measures the speed and magnitude of an asset's recent price changes to detect overbought or oversold conditions in the price of said asset.
In addition to identifying overbought and oversold assets, the RSI can also indicate whether your desired asset may be primed for a trend reversal or a corrective pullback in price. It can signal when to buy and sell.
The RSI will oscillate between 0 and 100. Traditionally, an RSI reading of 70 or above indicates an overbought condition. A reading of 30 or below indicates an oversold condition.
The RSI is one of the most popular technical indicators. I intend to offer a fresh spin.
Adapted RSI w/ Multi-Asset Regime Detection
Our Adapted RSI makes necessary improvements to the original Relative Strength Index (RSI) by combining multi-timeframe analysis with multi-asset monitoring and providing traders with an efficient way to analyse market-wide conditions across different timeframes and assets simultaneously. The indicator automatically detects market regimes and generates clear signals based on RSI levels, presenting this data in an organised, easy-to-read format through two dynamic tables. Simplicity is key, and having access to more RSI data at any given time, allows traders to prepare more effectively, especially when trading markets that "move" together.
How we calculate the RSI
First, the RSI identifies price changes between periods, calculating gains and losses from one look-back period to the next. This look-back period averages gains and losses over 14 periods, which in this case would be 14 days, and those gains/losses are calculated based on the daily closing price. For example:
Average Gain = Sum of Gains over the past 14 days / 14
Average Loss = Sum of Losses over the past 14 days / 14
Then we calculate the Relative Strength (RS):
RS = Average Gain / Average Loss
Finally, this is converted to the RSI value:
RSI = 100 - (100 / (1 + RS))
snapshot
Key Features
Our multi-timeframe RSI indicator enhances traditional technical analysis by offering synchronised Daily, Weekly, and Monthly RSI readings with automatic regime detection. The multi-asset monitoring system allows tracking of up to 10 different assets simultaneously, with pre-configured major pairs that can be customised to any asset selection. The signal generation system provides clear market guidance through automatic regime detection and a five-level signal system, all presented through a sophisticated visual interface with dynamic RSI line colouring and customisable display options.
Quick Guide to Use it
Begin by adding the indicator to your chart and configuring your preferred assets in the "Asset Comparison" settings.
Position the two information tables according to your preference.
The main table displays RSI analysis across three timeframes for your current asset, while the asset table shows a comparative analysis of all monitored assets.
Signals are colour-coded for instant recognition, with green indicating bullish conditions and red for bearish conditions. Pay special attention to regime changes and signal transitions, using multi-timeframe confluence to identify stronger signals.
How it Works (Regime Detection & Signals)
When we say 'Regime', a regime is determined by a persistent trend or in this case momentum and by leveraging this for RSI, which is a momentum oscillator, our indicator employs a relatively simple regime detection system that classifies market conditions as either Bullish (RSI > 50) or Bearish (RSI < 50). Our benchmark between a trending bullish or bearish market is equal to 50. By leveraging a simple classification system helps determine the probability of trend continuation and the weight given to various signals. Whilst we could determine a Neutral regime for consolidating markets, we have employed a 'neutral' signal generation which will be further discussed below...
snapshot
Signal generation occurs across five distinct levels:
Strong Buy (RSI < 15)
Buy (RSI < 30)
Neutral (RSI 30-70)
Sell (RSI > 70)
Strong Sell (RSI > 85)
snapshot
Each level represents different market conditions and probability scenarios. For instance, extreme readings (Strong Buy/Sell) indicate the highest probability of mean reversion, while neutral readings suggest equilibrium conditions where traders should focus on the overall regime bias (Bullish/Bearish momentum).
This approach offers traders a new and fresh spin on a popular and well-known tool in technical analysis, allowing traders to make better and more informed decisions from the well presented information across multiple assets and timeframes. Experienced and beginner traders alike, I hope you enjoy this adaptation.
A bright future!!!hello friends
We have come with the analysis of another coin
DYDX which is in DEFI area.
This coin has been suffering for a long time and now by making a bottom, it was able to experience an upward movement.
It is expected that it will move at least up to the limit of range and this time it is likely to succeed in breaking the ceiling.
Now, if you have this coin, you can keep it up to the range limit, and after the successful failure of the range, you can proceed to the specified targets with it.
Now, if you want to buy this coin, our suggestion to you is that one entry step is appropriate now and we will wait if the market corrects at the specified points, we will buy other steps.
If you grow from this area, you can buy a step with the successful failure of your TR and wait for good targets...

ETH Ethereum Bear Market If you haven`t bought the recent Double Bottom on Ethereum:
Now you need to know that historically, Ethereum has shown a tendency to retrace in December before starting a recovery around March. This pattern could repeat this season, with ETH facing selling pressure as year-end portfolio rebalancing and macro uncertainties weigh on the market.
While a brief Santa Claus rally might provide temporary relief, the bearish trend is expected to dominate until March. By then, ETH could trade below $3,000 before regaining momentum, aligning with its historical recovery trend as market conditions stabilize in spring.
ETH could find footing around here...We had a steep incline, we tested it 4 times and it was support, we tested it a 5th time after rejecting a breakdown and she crashed through support and now we are nearing where we hope to get a footing. You can see where if we slightly adjust the angle of the channel from the prior super steep ascending channel to this new, pretty steep ascending channel, we are near the bottom of channel, near support and hopefully hold and bounce back up from here, would still be plenty bullish, with just a more reasonable trajectory.
Looks like we will have the 200 (4h candle) moving average line up around this support line as well giving it double the chance of holding. If it breaks down, the price could drop a lot lower, like $3000-$2400ish even.
if this is bottom line here, we have a little more down trend and probably some consolidation down here before heading back up, should let other assets breath some too. If it breaks through this, be prepared for more drop.
Order books currently imply that more traders believe the price will drop more than traders who believe the price will rise.
This could be a great entry op for ETH and many other assets but be vigilant, especially with order books in the current state, and it took a solid month for them to decline to their current state, so hoping for a two day reversal could be asking a bit much.
I am currently optimistic but skeptical
