Polkadot (DOT) and Kusama (KSM) Face Price Crash as NFT Event Starts

DOT

DOT has been decreasing underneath a descending parallel channel since reaching an all-time high price of $55.09 in Nov. 2021. The downward movement led to a low of $6 in July. Afterward, the ensuing bounce validated the $6.60 horizontal area as support (green icon).

Despite the bounce, DOT has returned to the support area once more. Additionally, it is at risk of falling below the middle of the parallel channel.

So, the price may break down. This possibility is supported by the weeklyRSI, which is below 50 and consistently decreasing.

The daily chart shows that DOT has been falling underneath a descending resistance line since the beginning of May. It was rejected by the resistance line on Aug. 12 and has been falling since.

Additionally, DOT decreased below the $7.70 horizontal area, which has now been validated as resistance (red icon). Finally, the daily RSI has now moved below 50.

Therefore, due to these bearish readings, a breakdown from the previously outlined horizontal support area seems to be the most likely scenario. A breakout from the descending resistance line would invalidate this possibility and suggest that an upward movement is forthcoming.

At present, this seems unlikely.

KSM

Similar to DOT, KSM is barely holding on above its yearly lows at $46. So far, the area has been tested four times. Since horizontal levels get weaker each time they are touched, an eventual breakdown from this area would be expected.

Furthermore, the daily RSI has broken down from the 50 line and validated it as resistance, supporting the possibility of a breakdown.

If a breakdown occurs, the closest support levels would be at $36.10 and $27.05, respectively. These are found by the 1.27 and 1.61 Fib retracement levels of the preceding upward movement.

Art Is The Currency of the Infinite
This still-life, titled after one of Pablo Picasso's infamous quotes, was made solely using 3D softwares and apps, in an attempt to bring this often forgotten artistic genre into the 21st century through the use of new artistic mediums and technologies. This piece is also an invitation to meditate on the role of "value" throught the ages and how it's been radically altered by the coming into existence of technologies and concepts like cryptocurrencies and digital scarcity.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
"Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?" is dedicated to the mysterious creation of Bitcoin, and acts as the showcase artwork within Javier Arrés’ exploratory series "Bitcoin, The Origin". "Who is the creator of Bitcoin?" The artist, Arrés, explores this question, and the feelings of doubt and mystery that accompany it, through his unique artistic language. An unknown, an enigma. It should be remembered that the name Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym of Bitcoin's author or authors and gives us little insight into its true creator. For this Visual Toy, Arrés uses the signature claw machine, his famous half-operation, to symbolize our collective ignorance and unconfirmed belief: As soon as it has the stuffed animal within its grasp and appears to have solved the puzzle, the animal escapes again, and again. At present, there are three more public and studied possibilities who are either believed to be the creators of the currency or who directly claim the creation of it. It may be all or none of them, yet these three personalities leave us clues which are an important part of this interesting enigma. For this moment, it will remain unknown... In this artwork, Arrés elevates the claw machine from the apparatus, to an iconic pop art object serving as an important element to the Bitcoin creation narrative. Action is everywhere, with each movement serving an iconographical or metaphorical purpose related directly to cryptocurrency: Various ups and downs, roller coasters, mining points, robot, coins and more speak to a sense of hope, risk, mystery, randomness and possibility of pay out. Hundreds of manically thought out details make this creation one of the artist’s most complex Visual Toys to date. ------- "Bitcoin, The Origin" is a set of two Visual Toys, titled "Who is Satoshi Nakamoto" and "It’s Alive!" which reflect and explore the mystery and enigmas behind the creation of Bitcoin. Arrés presents these proposals to us in his signature style, full of iconography, fantasy, maniacal animations and a panoply of details (both subtle and overt) which simultaneously fascinate, hypnotize, and narrate this historical milestone through the singular vision of the artist. Through this series, Arrés freezes a crucial moment of cryptocurrency history, taking a still photo under his vision and turning it into two unique crypto artworks. ---- More info about Javier Arrés: https://javierarres.com/about.html
