Strategy fears are overblown  Evolving price targets  Despite Bitcoin facing plenty of turbulence, financial giant Standard Chartered is sticking by its bullish prediction, forecasting that the price of the leading cryptocurrency by market capitalization will surge to $100,000.  Even though some analysts expect BTC to plunge way below the $60,000 level, the firm believes that the flagship cryptocurrency is actually a “screaming buy” at the current level (roughly $64,000).  Strategy fears are overblown  The market fear surrounding Strategy’s recent Bitcoin sales is actually overblown, according to Standard Chartered.  ‘Not Happening’: Former SWIFT Exec Shuts Down XRP Integration Rumors XRP, Shiba Inu, Solana (SOL) and Ethereum (ETH) Price Analysis for June 10: Market Fuel Comes In Handy Last month, BTC plunged lower amid concerns about STRC, the dividend-paying preferred stock issued by

The post Why former Bank of America strategist sees an Ethereum ‘tactical bottom’ appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Stephen Suttmeier, former Head of Technical Strategy at Bank of America, believes Ethereum could be forming a “tactical bottom.” In his recent analysis report, Suttmeier said that if the price stays above $1690-$1700, it would support his thesis of the altcoin forming a tactical low above its June lows. Another confirmation for this bottoming pattern would be a reclaim of $1800. His projection was based on technical analysis, particularly using moving averages (MA) to gauge short- and long-term momentum shifts. As of press time, the Ethereum [ETH] price has briefly stalled below the 50-day MA (DMA).  Should the 50DMA be decisively reclaimed as support (ETH price above $1800), the next upside target would be the 200-day MA(blue line) at $2.2K, Suttmeier added. That would imply a 25% upside potential if the $2.1K obstacle is cleared.  Source: ETH/USDT, TradingView  In fa

The post Robinhood Chain scams are already costing users dearly appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Robinhood (Nasdaq:HOOD) launched the public mainnet of its new blockchain on July 1, and unfortunately, tons of people are already losing money trading its coins. Bad actors are using a variety of scam contracts, memecoin rug-pulls, phishing links, and garden variety theft, leading to complaints of loss flooding onto social media. Relay Protocol warned about scam tokens on the new Robinhood Chain: “If you bought one, the funds you spent are unfortunately gone.” In this example, scam contracts are accepting a token swap, briefly crediting the buyer’s wallet yet immediately transferring the tokens back to the deployer’s wallet. In other words, users unwittingly purchased tokens for someone else. Another trader alleged that Robinhood Wallet’s default sell screen auto-populated a Robinhood Chain scam coin called USER. Unless someone modified that default, the position would vaporize. “$600
