Messari分析师:NFT市场格局正在增大:10月16日消息,Messari分析师Mason Nystrom发推表示,随着Coinbase和FTX宣布推出NFT平台和交易,NFT市场格局正在增大,以此看出,中心化交易所在寻求成为主要的NFT交易场所时将具有一些关键优势和一些劣势。最终,Coinbase和FTX有可能建立具有独特价值主张的强大NFT交易所,而像Coinbase、OpenSea、Rarible、NFTX或其他NFT交易所正在争夺不同区块链和各种资产的流动性。[2021/10/16 20:33:24]

PrimeXBT分析师:山寨币市场并没有处于泡沫之中:PrimeXBT分析师Kim Chua研究了一些山寨币的活动,她表示,即使出现了一些“奇怪现象”,某些山寨币价格剧烈上涨,她仍认为山寨币市场并没有处于泡沫之中。她补充说:“就我个人而言,这是时代的标志。我不认为DOGE处于泡沫之中,这仅仅是人们在反抗强大的控制权,我希望将来还会发生更多此类事件。而XRP是另一个例子,我们也已经看到,尽管XRP的价格已被许多交易所除名,但其价格仍在继续飙升。我相信这是市场行为的改变,而不是泡沫的迹象,这种现象将一直存在。”分析师解释说,时代已经改变。交易者需要与时俱进,以从市场中获得最大的收益。(U.today)[2021/4/22 20:47:48]

分析师:比特币目前更有可能处于牛市停顿 而非熊市逆转:由于比特币保持9000美元的时间太长,许多分析师开始看好比特币。加密货币分析师Eric Thies指出,过去两个月比特币的价格走势与过去两年的市场顶部完全不同:“从结构上看,BTC现在不太像局部顶部,更像是一个发射台。一般来说,比特币可能需要先跌后涨,但这次看起来不太一样。”这种观点认为,由于比特币尚未跌破当前的区间,这更有可能是牛市中的一个停顿,而不是熊市逆转。(Bitcoinist)[2020/7/4]
