  • LayerZero is hovering at $1.79.
  • ZRO trading volume dropped by 28%.

As of March 2nd, the crypto market opened the day, continuing the bearish ride. The Fear and Greed Index value is settled at 15, exhibiting extreme fear. With this momentum, the digital assets are charted in the red, including Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). In the last 24 hours, among the altcoins, LayerZero (ZRO) has posted a 2.26% loss in value.  

The asset’s lowest trading zone was noted at $1.72, and gradually, it rose toward $1.89, breaking a few key resistances. The CoinMarketCap data has revealed that LayerZero is trading in the $1.79 range at press time. With the market cap at $544.77 million, the daily trading volume has dropped by 28.76%, touching the $105.12 million mark.

The current bullish trajectory of LayerZero might trigger the price to mount higher to the resistance at around $1.83. Assuming the upside momentum builds more power, the golden cross could unfold and likely take the price up above $1.87. On the flip side, if the bears take control, the LayerZero price could fall to the nearest support at $1.75. If the correction on the downside intensifies, it will initiate the formation of a death cross, gradually leading the price below $1.71.

LayerZero Gains Short-Term Strength with Indicators Turning Favourable

The technical indicators of LayerZero reveal that the Moving Average Convergence Divergence line is briefly above the signal line. This hints at a short-term bullish move, and if the MACD moves higher, it may trigger further upside. However, a quick drop weakens the ongoing momentum.

Moreover, ZRO’s Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator is positioned at 0.14, reflecting solid buying pressure, with money steadily flowing into the asset. With accumulation happening, the buyers are showing stronger interest than the sellers. If it rises further, it helps strengthen the bullish trend. 

LayerZero’s daily Relative Strength Index (RSI) at 57.47 indicates a moderate bullish tone in the market. This level is above the neutral mark, with growing buying strength. The asset is far from the overbought zone, and a move below 50 weakens the momentum for a possible consolidation.

Besides, the Bull Bear Power (BBP) value of 0.159 suggests a slight bullish strength. Notably, the price is holding above its average level, showing steady buying strength and improving momentum. It likely supports a constructive short-term outlook when the reading continues to rise.

Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO

The post Aave DAO to Shut Down 50% of L2s While Doubling Down on GHO appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Aave DAO is gearing up for a significant overhaul by shutting down over 50% of underperforming L2 instances. It is also restructuring its governance framework and deploying over $100 million to boost GHO. This could be a pivotal moment that propels Aave back to the forefront of on-chain lending or sparks unprecedented controversy within the DeFi community. Sponsored Sponsored ACI Proposes Shutting Down 50% of L2s The “State of the Union” report by the Aave Chan Initiative (ACI) paints a candid picture. After a turbulent period in the DeFi market and internal challenges, Aave (AAVE) now leads in key metrics: TVL, revenue, market share, and borrowing volume. Aave’s annual revenue of $130 million surpasses the combined cash reserves of its competitors. Tokenomics improvements and the AAVE token buyback program have also contributed to the ecosystem’s growth. Aave global metrics. Source: Aave However, the ACI’s report also highlights several pain points. First, regarding the Layer-2 (L2) strategy. While Aave’s L2 strategy was once a key driver of success, it is no longer fit for purpose. Over half of Aave’s instances on L2s and alt-L1s are not economically viable. Based on year-to-date data, over 86.6% of Aave’s revenue comes from the mainnet, indicating that everything else is a side quest. On this basis, ACI proposes closing underperforming networks. The DAO should invest in key networks with significant differentiators. Second, ACI is pushing for a complete overhaul of the “friendly fork” framework, as most have been unimpressive regarding TVL and revenue. In some cases, attackers have exploited them to Aave’s detriment, as seen with Spark. Sponsored Sponsored “The friendly fork model had a good intention but bad execution where the DAO was too friendly towards these forks, allowing the DAO only little upside,” the report states. Third, the instance model, once a smart…
