ETH/USD: Ethereum is grossly undervalued, Blockfyre’s research reveals

  • Four factors point out that ETH is too cheap.
  • On the weekly chart, ETH/USD is supported by SMA100.

Ethereum (ETH) is grossly undervalued at the current levels, according to the study performed by the crypto research firm Blockfyre. The team outlined at least four factors to support their conclusions.

We charted several progress indicators for Ethereum against its price development since its genesis. Besides other factors, the following 4 indicators have caught our interest the most. We feel comfortable to state that Ethereum is significantly undervalued at current prices? – they wrote on Twitter.

The four metrics include the development activity, gas usage, mean dollar investment age, and miner’s balance. Considering that all of them demonstrate a positive trend, EHT is undervalued and poised for a strong price increase.  

Blockfyre is a research company based in Germany and focused on in-depth research of the digital asset market and investments.

According to Blockfyre co-founder Simon Dedic, the sharp decrease of ETH price in 2018 was caused by ICO projects selling large amounts of ETH to obtain capital in dollars. Meanwhile, miners and investors are mostly holding ETH since 2018.

ETH/USD: Technical picture

At the time of writing, ETH/USD is changing hands at $202.50. The coin found strong support at the psychological $200.00, which is strengthened by weekly SMA100. This technical barrier has been limiting the decline since the previous week. If it is broken, the sell-off will extend towards the lowest level of the previous week at $191.49 with weekly SMA50 and the middle line of the weekly Bollinger Band located below that level. 

On the upside, a sustainable move of $210.00 is needed for the upside to gain traction. Once this barrier is out of the way, the price will move towards the highest level of the previous week at $217.00 and $220.00.

XRP approaches key support as risk-off sentiment deepens
Ripple (XRP) is trading at $1.06 on Monday, maintaining its position within a broader bearish trend. The token’s technical outlook continues to deteriorate, pressured by declining retail participation. Appetite for risk assets remains lethargic, as reflected in the Fear & Greed Index, which is embedded in the Fear territory at 28.
Crypto Today: Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP extend decline amid renewed risk-averse sentiment
The cryptocurrency market remains weak on Monday, with Bitcoin (BTC) falling toward the nearest $62,000.

The Bitcoin futures yield collapse: Once over 20%, now less than Treasury notes
Once a goldmine for carry traders, Bitcoin futures have flipped, consistently underperforming plain‑vanilla U.S. Treasuries every month since February. Carry trades consistently yielded 20% or more across regulated and unregulated crypto exchanges during the 2021 bull market. The strategy involved shorting Bitcoin futures while simultaneously buying a spot exchange-traded fund (ETF).
The crypto market is moving in the opposite direction to equities
The crypto market’s market capitalisation has fallen by 1% over the past 24 hours, returning to levels last seen in mid-July. The positive momentum the market showed in the first half of last week failed to take hold. Once again, we are seeing a negative correlation with the Nasdaq 100 index, this time in the form of falling cryptocurrencies while shares rise. Could this be becoming the new norm?
Bitcoin: Bulls hold the line
Bitcoin (BTC) edges slightly lower, trading at $64,300 at the time of writing on Friday but holding firmly above a key support zone. US-listed spot Bitcoin Exchange Traded Funds (ETFs) support BTC as they continued to attract institutional flows through Thursday, pointing to the fourth consecutive week of net inflows.
