Historically, support zones like this can spark rebounds, creating favorable risk-to-reward setups. A bounce here may push the price back toward $37, while a breakdown below $28 could signal caution. Traders are watching closely for the next move.

HYPE Price Bounce Signals Short-Term Bullish Momentum

According to TradingView, as of Tuesday, February 17, the price has rebounded from the lower Bollinger Band, indicating that the price is oversold in the short term. 

The price is currently trading at $30.666, which is above the 200 EMA at $29.540. This shows that long-term support is still intact. 

The 20 and 50 EMAs are slightly above the current price, indicating short-term resistance levels, while the Bollinger Bands are moderately widened, indicating that the market is moderately volatile.

The latest downtrend began on February 5-6, with consolidation at levels of $29.5 to $32. The price has continued to touch the lower Bollinger Band while staying above the 200 EMA, thus creating a support zone at levels of $29.5 to $29.6. 

Bullish momentum is building up in the short term, with a 2.66% candle rise, which could indicate a rise to resistance at the levels of the 20 EMA, the 50 EMA, and the upper Bollinger Band at $32.5.

Momentum Indicators Show Early Signs of Momentum

Looking at this chart, it can be seen that the RSI is at approximately 49.5, close to the neutral level of 50. This shows that the asset is not overbought or oversold; thus, there is a fair balance between buyers and sellers. 

The yellow signal line is at 46.99, which is a smoothed version of the recent RSI movements, showing a slight bullish signal after a drop in the RSI.

The MACD indicator indicates that the blue line is at -0.23773, which is lower than the orange line at -0.11556. However, the diminishing bars on the histogram suggest a potential crossover. 

The neutral reading on the RSI combined with the diminishing bars on the MACD suggests that the market may be consolidating before it makes its next move.

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For

The post The Channel Factories We’ve Been Waiting For appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Visions of future technology are often prescient about the broad strokes while flubbing the details. The tablets in “2001: A Space Odyssey” do indeed look like iPads, but you never see the astronauts paying for subscriptions or wasting hours on Candy Crush.  Channel factories are one vision that arose early in the history of the Lightning Network to address some challenges that Lightning has faced from the beginning. Despite having grown to become Bitcoin’s most successful layer-2 scaling solution, with instant and low-fee payments, Lightning’s scale is limited by its reliance on payment channels. Although Lightning shifts most transactions off-chain, each payment channel still requires an on-chain transaction to open and (usually) another to close. As adoption grows, pressure on the blockchain grows with it. The need for a more scalable approach to managing channels is clear. Channel factories were supposed to meet this need, but where are they? In 2025, subnetworks are emerging that revive the impetus of channel factories with some new details that vastly increase their potential. They are natively interoperable with Lightning and achieve greater scale by allowing a group of participants to open a shared multisig UTXO and create multiple bilateral channels, which reduces the number of on-chain transactions and improves capital efficiency. Achieving greater scale by reducing complexity, Ark and Spark perform the same function as traditional channel factories with new designs and additional capabilities based on shared UTXOs.  Channel Factories 101 Channel factories have been around since the inception of Lightning. A factory is a multiparty contract where multiple users (not just two, as in a Dryja-Poon channel) cooperatively lock funds in a single multisig UTXO. They can open, close and update channels off-chain without updating the blockchain for each operation. Only when participants leave or the factory dissolves is an on-chain transaction…

IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge!

The post IP Hits $11.75, HYPE Climbs to $55, BlockDAG Surpasses Both with $407M Presale Surge! appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Crypto News 17 September 2025 | 18:00 Discover why BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet launch makes it the best crypto to buy today as Story (IP) price jumps to $11.75 and Hyperliquid hits new highs. Recent crypto market numbers show strength but also some limits. The Story (IP) price jump has been sharp, fueled by big buybacks and speculation, yet critics point out that revenue still lags far behind its valuation. The Hyperliquid (HYPE) price looks solid around the mid-$50s after a new all-time high, but questions remain about sustainability once the hype around USDH proposals cools down. So the obvious question is: why chase coins that are either stretched thin or at risk of retracing when you could back a network that’s already proving itself on the ground? That’s where BlockDAG comes in. While other chains are stuck dealing with validator congestion or outages, BlockDAG’s upcoming Awakening Testnet will be stress-testing its EVM-compatible smart chain with real miners before listing. For anyone looking for the best crypto coin to buy, the choice between waiting on fixes or joining live progress feels like an easy one. BlockDAG: Smart Chain Running Before Launch Ethereum continues to wrestle with gas congestion, and Solana is still known for network freezes, yet BlockDAG is already showing a different picture. Its upcoming Awakening Testnet, set to launch on September 25, isn’t just a demo; it’s a live rollout where the chain’s base protocols are being stress-tested with miners connected globally. EVM compatibility is active, account abstraction is built in, and tools like updated vesting contracts and Stratum integration are already functional. Instead of waiting for fixes like other networks, BlockDAG is proving its infrastructure in real time. What makes this even more important is that the technology is operational before the coin even hits exchanges. That…
