UMA price pumps 26.54%, critical support zone must hold or risk full retrace

Pi Network price could miss the ongoing crypto bull run as concerns around token sales by the Pi Foundation, centralization, and token unlocks persist. Pi Coin (PI) was trading at 0.8100 dollars on Thursday, slightly below this week’s high of 0.8610 dollars. The token remains 51 percent below this month’s peak and 73 percent lower than its all-time high. Pi Network price pulled back even as Bitcoin (BTC) soared to a record high and most altcoins jumped by double digits. This performance is a continuation of what happened last week after the launch of the Pi Network Ventures. Pi Network Ventures is a new initiative that plans to invest 100 million dollars into startups building on Pi technology to help expand its ecosystem. While this is a promising development, the Pi Core Team has not addressed major issues affecting the project, such as centralization, ongoing token unlocks, and the lack of listings on major exchanges.

According to an X post by blockchain analyst Dr. Altcoin, the foundation reportedly created 22,000 wallets that hold more than 92 billion tokens. He identified a recent transfer of 1.4 million tokens from a four-year-old wallet to a newly created one. These tokens were later sold on Gate.io, one of the few exchanges listing Pi Coin. Several similar transactions have reportedly been identified using the PiScan platform. Pioneers, if you are still in doubt—here is more evidence.Check these two wallet addresses:1.

Data shows 110 million coins are coming online this month, 254 million in June, and 233 million in July. The network will unlock 1.507 billion coins in the next 12 months. Centralization remains a key concern. Foundation-controlled wallets reportedly hold more than 90 billion tokens. This concentration of holdings raises risks for the network, particularly if security vulnerabilities are discovered. Pi Network price technical analysis Pi Coin price chart | Source: crypto.news The four-hour chart shows that Pi Coin has declined sharply from 1.6692 dollars last week to 0.8180 dollars. The price has formed a bearish flag pattern, a continuation setup that typically consists of a sharp decline (flagpole) followed by a period of consolidation within parallel trendlines (the flag). The flagpole began on May 12 and ended on May 17. Pi Coin is now forming the flag section of the pattern. If the structure plays out, a bearish breakdown may follow, with the next support level to watch at 0.6585 dollars, the May 17 low. A break below that level could trigger further downside toward 0.5545 dollars, the lowest point reached on April 29. You might also like:Shiba Inu price stumbles as whales dump 18b coins

Ethereum has been grinding against the $1,850 level for over a week, unable to break free due to a lack of momentum. Multiple technical barriers converge here, explaining the sustained struggle. Over the past several trading sessions,Ethereum’s (ETH) price has repeatedly tested, and failed to clear, the $1,850 area. This isn’t mere indecision: it’s the result of several key technical factors aligning to create formidable resistance. Without a surge in buying volume, ETH looks poised to remain range-bound or potentially pull back to lower supports. . Key technical points Converging Resistance:VWAP SR, 0.618 Fibonacci retracement, daily supply zone, and Point of Control all cluster around $1,850. Volume Drought:Recent attempts to push higher have lacked significant volume, undermining breakout efforts. Channel Context:ETH remains inside its longer-term price channel, approaching its upper boundary without confirmation of strength. ETHUSDT (1D) Chart Source: TradingView Detailed analysis Ethereum’s VWAP SR (Volume-Weighted Average Price Support/Resistance) is a dynamic level that often flips roles. As ETH approaches $1,850, VWAP has shifted from support to resistance, reflecting the average price paid by traders and highlighting that many are underwater above this level. Simultaneously, the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement, drawn from the last major swing low to high, sits nearly on top of VWAP, reinforcing this area as a rejection zone. Layered on top of this is a daily supply zone, where sellers previously absorbed buying pressure and drove price lower. Adding to the congestion is the Point of Control from the recent volume profile, marking the price at which the most trading occurred. When price meets the POC at resistance, buyers and sellers clash decisively, and in this case, sellers are winning.

Breakouts require participation, traders must feel compelled to buy in size. But ETH’s recent tests of $1,850 have been characterized by thin order books and muted buying interest. Without above-average volume, candles remain small and price fails to close decisively above resistance, signaling exhaustion rather than conviction. What to expect in the coming price action As long as Ethereum remains below $1,850, the path of least resistance favors a pullback, potentially toward the lower boundary of its channel or significant supports like $1,700 or the 200-day moving average. Traders eyeing longs at current levels would be taking high risk against stacked resistance. To invalidate this bearish outlook, ETH must deliver a clear breakout: look for a close above $1,850 on heavy volume and a sustained move beyond the channel’s upper trendline. That combination would likely attract momentum traders and test higher targets, such as $1,950 and $2,000. Until then, caution is advised, and traders should manage risk tightly around this critical zone. Read more:Solana’s most explosive launch yet? Cedar is about to go viral

分析人士担心，北美仍然是极端主义加密货币捐款的最大来源国，但欧洲的快速增长表明地区动态正在发生变化。 美国区块链分析公司 Chainalysis 警告称，全球极端组织越来越依赖加密货币，欧洲的加密货币活动出现令人担忧的增长。根据 1 月 23 日的一份研究报告，尽管北美在总体捐款方面仍处于领先地位，捐款总额超过 2000 万美元，但欧洲的份额也大幅增长，尤其是自 2017 年以来。 报告称：“2022 年至 2024 年间，欧洲的份额急剧上升，占总流入量的近 50%。”Chainalysis 使用了包括公开制裁名单和“专门从事极端主义和恐怖主义融资的组织”的研究，称这种激增是由民族主义、反犹太主义和白人至上主义团体推动的，这些团体通常与法国和英国选举等两极分化的政治事件有关。 “意识形态团体中一个令人担忧的趋势是故意将意识形态混合在一起以扩大吸引力。例如，运动可能会将恐同言论与白人至上主义或亲俄主题结合起来，通过利用重叠的不满和类似的叙述来战略性地吸引更广泛的受众。” 链分析 你可能还喜欢：Chainalysis：超过 77% 的持有特朗普表情包币的钱包收入不足 100 美元 尽管总捐款额在增长，但平均捐款额仍然相对较小，通常为几百美元。不过，报告指出，捐赠强度正在增加，尤其是在欧洲。较大的捐款往往与重大政治事件同时发生，捐赠者要么庆祝胜利，要么对损失作出反应。 Chainalysis 警告称，在这种增长趋势下，门罗币 (XMR) 等隐私币正成为一些团体在德国和奥地利等仇恨言论法严格的地区逃避审查的首选方法，这凸显了全球打击极端主义资金的挑战日益加大。 阅读更多：哈马斯和恐怖组织如何使用加密捐款

Ethereum has crossed $2,700 for the first time since February, rising nearly 5% over the past 24 hours to trade at $2,736 at press time.  The move extends its impressive recovery, with Ethereum (ETH) now up 53% over the past month after a rough Q1 that saw prices drop more than 45%. A major driver behind the rally appears to be growing institutional interest.  U.S. spot Ethereum exchange-traded funds have attracted $402 million in inflows over the past month, according to SoSoValue data. BlackRock’s iShares Ethereum Trust alone brought in $53 million in the past 24 hours, pushing its cumulative inflows to $4.3 billion. Some industry leaders are now pushing for the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission to approve staking for Ethereum ETFs. SEC Commissioner Hester Peirce recently clarified that Ethereum’s proof-of-stake functions, such as node operations and validation, are not considered securities. If ETF staking requests from companies like 21Shares are approved, more inflows could follow. The trend is further highlighted by the large-scale ETH purchases made by institutions. Over 350,000 Ethereum, worth about $837 million, were purchased by Abraxas Capital between May 7 and May 21. In addition, the company pulled 185,000 ETH from exchanges during a 44% price increase at the beginning of May, demonstrating long-term conviction.

In another sign of growing adoption, online gambling firm SharpLink Gaming raised $425 million on May 27, led by ConsenSys, to establish an Ethereum treasury. The news sent its stock soaring 400%, and Ethereum co-founder Joseph Lubin joined the company’s board. On the daily chart, Ethereum is currently displaying bullish momentum as it tests the upper Bollinger Band. The price is still above the $2,573 20-day simple moving average, which has served as a crucial support level for the rally. ETH is forming a rising wedge pattern, which could indicate continuation if it breaks above the $2,800 resistance.  ETH price analysis. Credit: crypto.news The 50-day and 100-day EMAs, as well as the majority of other significant moving averages, are flashing buy signals. The relative strength index, which is at 71.5, indicates that ETH may be approaching overbought territory. A brief pause or pullback may result from this, particularly as the market gets closer to the psychological $2,800 and $3,000 levels.  Ethereum may retest support at $2,650 or the 20-day SMA at $2,573 if it is unable to maintain above $2,700. However, a breakout above $2,800 could result in $2,900 and higher if momentum continues. Read more:Ethereum pivots from retail trading to institutional settlement hub, Bitwise says
