DOGE cryptocurrency has been asleep for more than half a year. This volcano worked well until May 2021. However, after setting its highs from mid-May on the weekly timeframe, you can see a gradual correction in the DOGE price. During this correction, trading volumes are low and there are no signals to complete this stage in the DOGE market yet. There is one small hint. As we can see, the DOGE price is moving in a clear corrective channel of the fall. Though, in recent weeks, market participants have begun to reduce the range of price movements. Thus, the DOGE price began to be traded in a narrow wedge. It is becoming increasingly difficult for sellers to update local lows. And buyers are not ready to start the active phase of growth and buy DOGE at market prices. https://www.tradingview.com/x/6oIv8WTi/ Therefore, in the near future we expect a shot of DOGE cryptocurrency up. The main condition for this scenario is to keep the mark of $0.1. In the implementation of this scenario, we will expect a price rebound to $0.26. However, this jump will not mean that the downward trend is over. It should be borne in mind that while the $0.26 mark under the control of sellers, the probability of a new fall wave remains high. Technical Analysis Of DOGE On The Daily Timeframe https://www.tradingview.com/x/ZtAkQYoK/ Analyzing the movement of the DOGE price on the daily timeframe, we can see that buyers have not yet been able to reach the top trend line of the consolidation wedge. Therefore, to complete their growth wave to begin with, they need to show strength in the range of $0.138. It was this range that was able to stop the fall of the DOGE  price on 22 January and change the balance of power in the market. Given the likely correction of the BTC price from the $46,000 range, it is unlikely that DOGE buyers will be able to break the consolidation wedge during this growth wave. Thus, we expect another fall wave before the likely medium-term growth of the entire cryptocurrency market, including DOGE. The DOGEBTC Price Stopped At A Crucial Point https://www.tradingview.com/x/EwRLlekL/ DOGEBTC global price chart shows that the downward trend from May 2021 is on the verge of breaking. From October 2021, sellers are unable to update local lows. Now the DOGEBTC price is moving near the upper trend line of the fall channel. Given the interest of buyers in the range of 0.00000367, we can conclude that the minimum price rebound is highly probable. The first main target is the mark 0.00000857. However, given the DOGEBTC correction time, we do not rule out the possibility that the impulse may be much stronger.

While a plan to leverage “volcano energy” is great marketing for El Salvador’s planned Bitcoin City, on its own, it might not be the best source.

SHOES 53045 is continuing its invasion of the metaverse — by dropping its first-ever virtual shoe (and a unique virtual experience) in partnership with MetaJuice (www.metajuice.com) the blockchain company unlocking the metaverse.

Buyers can go to https://thedematerialised.com starting February 3, 2022 and purchase the limited edition Cyb'Air NFTs and then bring them into the IMVU Metaverse and showcase them in a specially-designed room.

Cyb'Air — a virtual platform-heeled bubble air sneaker boot with supernatural powers — launches as an NFT on virtual fashion platform THE DEMATERIALISED (DMAT) in conjunction and can be imported and worn on the metaverse platform IMVU on February 3, 2022 at 3p.m. Paris, 6a.m. LA. Three NFTs — Thunder, Lava, and Ice — will be available with varying levels of scarcity : 

• Cyb'Air Thunder: Limited edition of 150 units at 200 euros each

• Cyb'Air Lava: Limited edition of 150 units at 200 euros each

• Cyb'Air Ice: 1 unit, auction beginning at 1000 euros

Cyb'Air's design sets a new bar for shoe design in the metaverse. The futuristic boot introduces a new bubble air sole into the brand's family of styles: a double-decker platform with a triple-decker heel. Inspired by motocross footwear and superhero boots, Cyb'Air have built-in superpower effects: Thunder has a stormy thunder effect, Lava erupts like a molten volcano, and Ice freezes and shatters.

“Our brand has been digital since day one. We've always been creating digital art and building a digital community, so this is a natural playground for us,” says SHOES 53045 CEO Aurelia Ammour. “People dare to wear more extreme styles in the metaverse, and it's exciting to bring that to them.”

“When you're designing for the metaverse, there is no limit to creativity — no constraints around what is possible to produce or fit to the human foot,” adds SHOES 53045 Chief Creative Officer David Tourniaire. “This is thrilling to us.”  

Karinna Grant, Co-CEO of DMAT, explains that “on partnering with Shoes53045 again we wanted to be even more progressive than our last NFT launch together. Therefore this time we focused on enabling authentic NFT utility through the seamless integration for owners to wear their shoes Direct to Avatar (DTA) in IMVU via our MetaJuice NFT partnership. We strive to offer added value with our NFTs and we can't wait to see the owners styling their new boots in the metaverse!” 

Through THE DEMATERIALISED, owners can showcase the NFT on their Universal Profile, wear and capture them in AR, and for the very first time, owners are able to port their new shoes into IMVU. 

To celebrate the drip, SHOES 53045 and DMAT are partnering with metaverse blockchain company, MetaJuice, to make the NFTs available on the IMVU platform.

“MetaJuice unlocks the full value of the metaverse for users and we are one of the few platforms enabling users to import NFTs and showcase them,” said Nancy Beaton, Vice President of Strategy and Marketing for MetaJuice. “The IMVU platform has 1,000,000 daily active users and we are offering each of them a unique experience where they can own,  style and wear NFTs and Cyb'air shoes in an immersive SHOES 53045 environment.”  

As part of the launch, NFT owners are invited to participate in SHOES 53045'S first meta-film — an interactive, community-based art project that will screen in a live event and exhibition on Spacial.io starting February 25. Owners and influencers will be encouraged to create content in the IMVU experience, and to share videos, images, and mixed-media montages featuring the shoes in action in their digital life with hashtag #cybair. The results will be edited into a meta-film that will be part of the final exhibition.

Last but not least, simultaneous with the meta-film, there will be a SHOES 53045 Instagram selfie challenge for the IMVU community, complete with a Shoes 53045 digital shoe giveaway and chances to win a Shoes 53045 NFT and VCOIN.

Despite the fact that the end of 2021 suggested that there could still be some concern in regard to the volatility of the market, there is no doubt that last year was huge for the cryptocurrency industry and one that was huge in general. Indeed, there were a number of different things to look out for including things such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and decentralized finance (DeFi), Ethereum (ETH-USD) and smaller cryptocurrencies, however it is was also a year that had plenty of impact on Bitcoin. The cryptocurrency, which had experienced a number of fluctuations over the last 12 months, had managed to hit an all-time high of a price near $69,000 in November, however it had been reduced to around $47,000 recently, leaving its market capitalization to being its second lowest and around 40% according to TradingView data. Nonetheless, this has not stopped many bulls from predicting that Bitcoin will still be able to reach the $100,000 price that many have hoped it would, with many standing strong in their prediction and seemingly having as much confidence in it happening as before. Naturally, there are a number of different factors that many individuals and experts may look to point to when it comes down to trying to back their prediction, with the gambling industry perhaps one of the biggest. Crypto gambling is an activity that is enjoyed by many holders of virtual currency, with the use of a Bitcoin casino continuing to increase due to the benefits that gamblers are able to enjoy when playing their favorite games. Additionally, to further support the suggestion that Bitcoin has benefited from this particular industry and will likely continue to do so, a study by Thomas Conlon and Richard McGee in 2020 has already shown that the crypto token had enjoyed an increase in price once before because of the wagering industry. CryptosRus George Tung told Yahoo Finance that whilst in the “short-term, there may be some volatility,” he felt that in the “long-term, inflation is going to be a continuing issue, and bitcoin is seen as the best hedge against inflation at this point.” Blockstream’s chief strategy officer Samson Mow also appeared to double down on the prediction that Bitcoin will be a six-figure price by suggesting that it could happen inside the next six months. He stated: “We’ll see $100k within the first half of the year.” How did it also reveal that Bitcoin will still be a rather risk-sensitive asset over the short-term, with a number of different factors at play, but also stated: “on a long enough time horizon, [Bitcoin] does its own thing.” El Salvador President, Nayib Bukele, has recently echoed the opinion that Bitcoin will also be able to reach the $100,000 price in 2022, as he made a number of strong predictions whilst taking to Twitter and posting a tweet to all of his followers. One of the predictions that he made that could help the digital asset to become a six-figure coin was that he felt two more countries will adopt the token as legal tender in the next 12 months, thus joining the Latin American country in becoming amongst the first to accept it. Mow highlighted that “[Bitcoin] mining at the national utility level is the first step,” and a number of countries have seen the market resurface. Despite the fact that China banned cryptocurrency mining in June 2021, countries including Canada, Iran, Germany, Malaysia, Russia and the United States have all seen a resurgence in market interest, according to research compiled by the Cambridge Bitcoin Electricity Consumption Index (CBECI). Some would suggest that Bukele’s and Mow’s thoughts are shared, though, due to the interest that they have together after a partnership was announced that would see them offer “volcano bonds”. Half of the billion-dollar sovereign debt would be going towards financing “Bitcoin City ” which would harvest nearby geothermal energy from a volcano to mine Bitcoin. Mow stated that a “zero tax on everything” development zone would help to transform El Salvador into the “Singapore of Latin America,” however it should be noted that the bond is not yet available, as Blockstream continues to work with a number of brokers. The other half of the 10-year bond offering will be converted into Bitcoin, with a coupon of 6.5% being carried over the next decade.

El Salvador bought the dip as the price of bitcoin plunged to a record low. President Nayib Bukele said Friday that his country has purchased 410 more bitcoins. The Salvadoran government has bought a total of 1,801 bitcoins since the cryptocurrency was made legal tender in the country. El Salvador Buys the Dip The president […]
