Security or not, Ethereum price looks poised to hold the $1.8K level based on 3 key metrics

Ethereum could eventually fall afoul of the SEC, but at the moment, key data points suggest ETH is poised to hold the $1,800 level.

Security or not, Ether looks poised to hold the $1.8K level based on 3 key metrics

Ether’s price retested $1,780 after the news of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) suing cryptocurrency exchanges Binance and Coinbase, but it’s not preposterous to suggest that Ether bulls should be more than happy that its price did not break below the 67-day support. 

The SEC’s actions are actually a double-edged sword for Ether (ETH), and on Crypto Twitter, some analysts attributed the bounce in Ether to its not being listed as a security in either of the cases brought against Binance and Coinbase. For instance, the SEC explicitly mentioned BNB (BNB), Solana (SOL) and Cardano (ADA), which are direct competitors to Ethereum’s smart contract-processing capabilities.

However, as noted by analyst Jevgenijs Kazanins, Ether’s omission does not mean that it has the green light from the SEC.

Kazanins raises the question of whether the SEC could be targeting the Ethereum Foundation in a separate lawsuit. For now, the idea is a mere unfounded speculation, but it certainly has merit given that SEC Chairman Gary Gensler refused to answer questions about Ether’s status before the U.S. House Financial Services Committee in April 2023.

In the meantime, what traders can focus on is Ether’s price action, network data and other data that impacts investor sentiment and price in the short term.

What asset freeze? Binance BTC outflows muted as users shun panic selling

Bitcoin (BTC) hitting three-month lows did not spur hodlers to panic sell, on-chain data shows.

According to analytics firm Glassnode, BTC investors have largely ignored the latest crypto exchange legal battles.

On-chain losses “remain quiet”

BTC/USD dipped to just $25,350 on June 6, its lowest since mid-March — but it seems existing holders simply do not care.

The latest data covering on-chain transactions shows that in the midst of reactions to the Binance and Coinbase lawsuits, few were in “panic sell” mode.

A chart uploaded to Twitter by Glassnode showed realized losses — coins moving at a lower value than their previous transaction — staying cool.
