Sometimes a few millimeters can separate us from total failure. In such cases, the tension is maximum, because hope struggles with common sense. However, when fortune wins, we begin to notice prospects and positivity again. A similar situation may happen in the LINK market. In the weekly timeframe, it should be noted that sellers have tested the global trend line of buyers. This trend channel has worked well since April 2019. https://www.tradingview.com/x/4iwfOZm0/ If you look for the perfect point on the chart to buy in the medium term and with minimal risk – this is it. If buyers do not keep the $16 range, we will not expect a positive scenario in the LINK market. In this case, we expect LINK to continue to fall to $10. Though, given the good BTC price growth and the chance of a rebound in the whole cryptocurrency market – so far we delete the scenario of decline as the main one. Therefore, the LINK price increase to $36 is the main scenario in the medium term. Technical Analysis Of LINK On The Daily Timeframe If you look at the LINK situation on the daily timeframe, you can see how trading volumes began to increase in the range of $16. Although sellers managed to update the previous local low, it did not work. Buyers have shown interest in creating a false breakdown of an important range. The first target of the local growth wave is around $25. This mark shows the local trend line of sellers. If you look at the movement of LINK price from 7 to 11 January, you can see how high volumes of buyers failed to pass this range. Thus, while this mark is under the control of buyers – we can not speak confidently about global growth to the mark of $36. The LINKBTC Price Takes Off Rose-Coloured Glasses And Optimism https://www.tradingview.com/x/HuTuRSxv/ Starting in 2020, LINKBTC buyers cannot significantly bounce back from the 0.00042 range. Each time the rebound from this level weakens. If the new growth wave can not break the upper trend line of the triangle – then you should expect another global LINK fall wave by an average of 50-60%. In this case, buy LINKBTC should be from the mark 0.00017. Therefore, the movement of the LINK price in 2022 depends on the formation of the current local growth wave.

– Accursed Share (https://accursedshare.art/), a production studio leveraging smart contract technology to push the boundaries of cryptoart, has announced a creative partnership with Wilmore Crossing Academy and New York Times best-selling author, Merlin Sheldrake. Together they will launch an NFT collection based on his award-winning book, Entangled Life: How Fungi Make Our Worlds, Change Our Minds, and Shape Our Futures. The NFTs are digitally curated from Sheldrake's personal studies of three-dimensional scans of thousands of sliced and rendered samples of plants and fungi exploring their codependent intimacy. The NFT collection, featuring his book and studies, will consist of 9,950 NFTs created with the help of screening technology and powered by Algorand's carbon-negative blockchain. The NFT drop starts February 10, 2022 at 6PM UTC. The first 1,000 unique ALGO addresses will receive a free animated NFT from the Entangled Life collection, while the top 100 referrers will receive a more exclusive NFT with dynamic features and surprises. 

“Fungi form living networks that can sprawl over tens or even hundreds of metres. These networks are decentralised, with no head or brain. And yet, fungi are able to integrate an unceasing flood of sensory information and engage in sophisticated trading relationships with plants, striking compromises and resolving dizzyingly complex trade-offs. Fungal coordination is dispersed across their networks, taking place both everywhere at once and nowhere in particular,” said Merlin Sheldrake. “I like to imagine the bewilderment of an extraterrestrial anthropologist who discovered only yesterday, after several decades of studying modern humanity, that we had something called the Internet. It's a bit like that for contemporary ecologists, grappling with the many ways that networks of symbiotic fungi change our understanding of how organisms interact.”

The NFTs in the Entangled Life collection showcase the symbiotic relationship between fungi and plants, highlighting how essential fungi are to life. More than 90 percent of plants depend on this relationship, making it a more fundamental part of planthood than flowers, fruit, leaves, wood or roots. Sheldrake explores how fungi form decentralized underground networks with plants, sometimes known as the ‘Wood Wide Web.' The NFT collection reveals an intimate view at these subterranean roots that make up the base of the food chain and sustain the future of all life on earth.

“Bridging biology with decentralized technology and NFTs is an ideal representation of how fungal networks work together to sustain life,” said John Connor, CEO of Accursed Share. “Merlin's work explores decentralized decision making and resource coordination in fungi, concepts which can help shape the way we understand and design optimal functioning DAOs and other web3 entities.”

Sheldrake explains that all organisms have a method to map and preserve their history. That is among one of the similarities that may be inferred between fungi and the blockchain as both act as decentralized entities with the ability to permanently store information. Blockchain has a similarly fashioned, immutable ledger, which helps record a timescape of inalienable history. Much like humans in the real world and in the Metaverse, fungi are able to navigate their environment, make decisions between alternative causes of action, form complicated and elaborate relationships within their intricate environments—all while achieving and sustaining their form as a decentralized entity. 

Since Accursed Share is an artist-led production studio and art accelerator focused on furthering the limits of NFT art, this collection truly breaks boundaries by bringing together art, education and science. Through its narrative-driven cryptoart pieces and installations, Accursed Share unlocks the creative realm of possibility through smart contracts and multifaceted and dynamic NFT creation. This collection fully embodies this mission, with a portion of proceeds going toward Merlin's study of decentralization in fungal networks and another in support of the Fungi Foundation.
