About Dogecoin (DOGE)

Dogecoin (DOGE) was originally created at least in part as a lighthearted joke for crypto enthusiasts, and took its name from a once-popular meme. The open-source digital currency was created by Billy Markus from Portland, Oregon, and Jackson Palmer from Sydney, Australia, and was forked from Litecoin in December 2013. Dogecoin’s creators envisaged it as a fun, light-hearted cryptocurrency that would have greater appeal beyond the core Bitcoin audience. DOGE was created to support content creators, online communities and artists. In recent times, DOGE has seen a massive adoption and support. Tesla CEO Elon Musk posted several tweets on social media that Dogecoin is his favorite coin.

Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD remains on track to test key $1792 support – Confluence Detector

Gold price is extending its corrective downside on Monday, reversing half the previous week’s gains, as the safe-haven demand for the US dollar remains unabated amid broad risk-aversion. Investors fret about the escalating Delta coronavirus variant cases globally and its impact on the pace of the economic recovery. Markets are in a ‘sell everything mode’ and seem to trust only the ultimate reserve currency, the US dollar, in times of panic and uncertainty. Meanwhile, mixed US Retail Sales and Consumer Sentiment data spurred inflation risks on growth, as the Fed prepares for monetary policy normalization.

lack of healthy support levels.

Gold Price: Key levels to watch

The Technical Confluences Detector shows that gold price has taken out all the key support levels, as the sell-off resumes towards a minor cap at SMA100 four-hour of $1796.

Further south, powerful support at $1792 will test the bearish commitments. That level is the confluence of the SMA100 one-day, pivot point one-week S1 and the previous week low.

The last line of defense for gold bulls is seen at the Fibonacci 23.6% one-month at $1790.

On the flip side, immediate resistance is aligned around $1809, where the SMA10 one-day, Fibonacci 61.8% one-week and the previous day low converge.

Gold buyers need to find a strong foothold above $1813 to unleash further recovery gains. At that point, SMA50 four-hour, SMA200 one-hour and Bollinger Band one-hour Middle merge.

Up next the bulls will target the intersection of the Fibonacci 38.2% one-week and Fibonacci 23.6% one-day at $1815.

Here is how it looks on the tool

SYGNUM BANK TOKENIZES A PICASSO ARTWORK ON THE BLOCKCHAIN IN CHALLENGE TO NFT

Sygnum Bank, which offers digital and regulated banking for DeFi assets and tokens, has announced that it has partnered with Artemundi to tokenized Picasso’s Fillete Au béret painting.

This is a radical new addition to the blockchain ecosystem with the introduction of what is called Art Security Tokens (ASTs) which are tokens that can be purchased and traded like shares and they mark ownership to artwork and it is broadcast onto the blockchain. This works differently from NFTs in this way and it remains to be seen whether ASTs and NFTs can co-exist in the blockchain artwork industry.

Mathias Imbach, Co-Founder and Group CEO of Sygnum Bank, says, “It has been Sygnum’s mission from the start to empower investors with more direct access to ownership and value. The tokenization of the Fillette au béret exemplifies how we bring our mission to reality, unlocking a universe of unique investment opportunities that can be made accessible to many.”

The painting is valued at 4 million banks and retail and institutional investors would be able to buy ownership of the painting by subscribing to the tokens exclusively through the Sygnum Bank through its e-banking platform and the minimum subscription is 5000 francs. The tokens can be traded on SygnEx which is a digital exchange launched by the bank and the bank also have a CHF stablecoin which can be used for the purchase of the tokens.

The bank believes that the tokenization of the artwork on the blockchain would help to open up the artwork market to a much larger network of users and democratize the whole process. This would also help to connect the buyers and sellers directly without the need for intermediaries and this would help to save costs as well.

This development marks an interesting period for the artwork market which has been an exclusive domain of large investors for many decades. It was ripe for being opened up so that more users would be able to gain access to precious artwork but the fact that blockchain has been the medium that has made it possible would be a surprise to many. Blockchain was connected to the finance industry a lot more than the artwork industry and it is indeed an innovative approach to tokenize the artwork industry and make it accessible for all and the fact that it is being done by a FINMA regulated financial institution would only help to bring in more trust into this new approach.


RIPPLE AND SEC REACH A DEAL AHEAD OF DEPOSITION ABOUT SPEECH ON ETH


On Friday, both parties announced they made progress in regard to the privilege issues and planned to further narrow and resolve those issues relating to Mr. Hinman’s deposition.

With one week to go before the deposition of William Hinman takes place, the plaintiff and defendants have jointly sent a letter to Judge Sarah Netburn announcing they have reached a deal so that the testimony goes smoothly.

“We have reached an understanding, reflecting a compromise by all parties, pursuant to which the Defendants may examine Mr. Hinman on various issues without triggering a privilege objection from the SEC”.

Last week, the Judge ordered the deposition to go forward despite the immense resistance from the SEC – “desperate”, according to attorney Jeremy Hogan.

On Friday, both parties announced they made progress in regard to the privilege issues and planned to further narrow and resolve the issues relating to Mr. Hinman’s deposition.

Despite the understanding reached between the SEC and Ripple, some remain skeptical about the progress made. “I will be surprised if the parties do not come to her after the deposition to get a ruling on the privilege “deliberative process” issue”, said XRP Holders’ attorney John Deaton.

“They may have agreed to ask certain questions and allow him to answer those questions under seal and then get a ruling after the fact”.

Deaton has previously suggested ten basic questions for the deposition that don’t fall under the privilege argument, but a Special Master may still be required to rule on the potential stream of objections.

At the center of the deposition of the ex-SEC Director of Corporation Finance will be his speech in 2018 about Ether as he said it is not to be considered a security. That triggered an intense market reaction and many deals were made at the time and after that, but also many questions have arisen.

Ripple Labs intends to raise some of those questions, in a move that could both expose the SEC for its missteps and put pressure on ETH as its nature as a non-security could be revisited.

GBPUSD and USDCAD Breakout Dispute EURUSD Hold as Risk Trends Plunge



S&P 500Crude Oil, Risk Trends, Dollar and GBPUSD Talking Points:

  • Despite an empty docket to start this week, markets opened to a broad and intense risk aversion with motivation coming as an after thought
  • The S&P 500 broke trendline support and the Dow suffered its worst day in 8 months, but potential arises from the breadth of the risk aversion
  • While the Delta variant, growth and monetary policy were all in headlines; risk aversion seemed to be the root of the market’s move

An Unexpected Fire In US Equities

If we were going by the economic calendar, it was looking like we were heading into the full lull of the summer doldrums. What we have seen thus far could not be further from those expectations. A strong downdraft in some of the most closely watched risk assets proved not simply an isolated bout of volatility. The risk aversion proved broad for both region and asset type which goes a long way to raising the threat that this was not simply a short-lived shudder from a thinned market. All traders should be on high alert, but there is strong precedence recently to maintain a sense of skepticism given a host of false starts across the financial system over these past months. It is difficult to override an undercurrent of illiquidity and upend a deep complacency born out of borrowed time and massive stimulus programs. As such, I’m eying the S&P 500’s first break of trendline support stretching back to the post-pandemic recovery and the Dow’s biggest daily drop since October for evidence that momentum is shifting to full panic-led deleveraging.

One of the more reliable measures for carrying forward a systemic sentiment shift is to establish a fundamental root to the move. Event risk in the opening 48 hour of this week (Monday behind us and Tuesday ahead) is particularly light and doesn’t get close to hitting the nerve of the more effective themes that have driven the market lately. A growing reference in headlines and in trader circles is the reference to the rising numbers of coronavirus cases in countries like the US that are reopening as the Delta variant spreads. Alternatively, the slowing in growth trends seen in recent data points (and perhaps with Friday’s PMIs) could give weight to the breakdown in crude oil and the US 10-year Treasury yield. Or, perhaps the recognition of a global shift in monetary policy towards normalizing from an extremely easy path is finally catching up to speculators after weeks of building evidence? It is all possible, but I believe this is more of a risk-first move with explanation coming later. This could prove the most capable universal motivation for markets, but it could also snuff out a nascent trend should liquidity dry up quickly.

Visualized another way, the below intensity curve helps me better assess the standings of conviction. When risk trends take command of investors the world over, it can be difficult the momentum that results. However, getting that traction in the first place can prove quite the feat. While there was some moderate risk aversion to end this past week, the truly comprehensive move didn’t register until Monday. After correlation and intensity, follow through is the most important feature of a productive trend. At what point does one call a trend? That’s up for discretion, but at a minimum I would look for a second day’s follow through.

The Dollar’s Bullish Break Doesn’t Register as an ‘Extreme’ Haven Demand

While much of the interest through the opening session of the week may have gone to indices and other overt risk measures, I was also keeping an eye on assets that orient more towards the haven side. In particular, the FX market’s Dollar and Yen crosses were of particular interest. For the Yen pairs, there was a broad enough slide (the Japanese currency rising) that it would also pull down USDJPY. That is a combination of two generic havens, but the Greenback usually appeals in more extreme scenarios. If we were to look at the Dollar by itself, the DXY trade-weighted index struggled to push higher. That said, it is heavily weighted towards EURUSD, a pair that is rooted more in its liquidity rather than its ‘risk’ contrast. If there is a second day of risk aversion, however, the smallest 10-day range in 18 months is likely to provide a critical break.

Elsewhere, managed to produce some impressive bullish breakouts against key counterparts. GBPUSD isn’t particularly known for its contrast on the risk spectrum, but it seemed tuned to the day’s volatility. A break of 1.3700 has brought the pair to a six month low by way of a prominent trendline support breakdown and subsequent clearance of the 200-day moving average – the first slip below this measure in 257 trading days.

Another incredibly impressive break in the Dollar’s favor came from USDCAD. Already measuring out progress – like the AUDUSD’s head-and-shoulders break a month ago – the ‘Loonie’ cross similarly cleared its own 200-day moving average over a similar time frame as well as the historical midpoint for the pair at 1.2600. For scale this is perhaps the most impressive clearance. Yet, for it to truly matter, there needs to be follow through. A break alone, even one as steeped in technical renown as this, is no guarantee of trend.
