Helium Rockets Up 18% As Investors Weigh In New Developments – Details

Investors flock to Helium (HNT) after it showed strength despite the stagnating momentum of the market. According to CoinGecko, the token is up more than 21%, going against the market’s flat trajectory. This came after a cryptic post about Helium’s plans that might indicate a better future for the platform and its users. With this in mind, HNT continues to be an attractive investment for both users of the platform and those who are chasing gains in the long term. But with the market’s stagnating momentum, investors and traders should exercise caution as any swing by the broader market might lead to a downturn. Cryptic Message Boosts Investor Interest On HNT Abhay recently posted a mysterious message that’s hinting at a possible network upgrade soon. This sent the community spiraling into speculation, with Abhay stating that it would be a busy month for the network. The hype this post generated is substantial as community members await an official announcement for the speculated upgrade that might happen soon. 1.0 – launch a wireless network 2.0 – scale two networks 3.0 – scale all networks stay tuned, @helium pic.twitter.com/2aNUG8IyDe — abhay 🎈 (@abhay) August 16, 2024 Mobile Carrier Beta Passed, Expands Network Reach HIP 129 was passed three days back, allowing all Mobile hotspots to participate in the Carrier Beta. This expands the reach of the Carrier Beta which will affect the performance of the network in the long term. With almost the entire mainland United States having Helium network coverage, the community will observe a jump in the number of users trying to offload Carrier beta.

HNTUSD trading at $7.9 on the daily chart: TradingView.comInvestors Win With New Opportunities For Helium The token is currently resting above the $7.2 support with the bulls approaching the $8 ceiling confidently. With a strong bullish sentiment backing its trajectory, HNT is set to break through this ceiling in the coming hours or days. Thanks to Helium’s on-chain developments, investors’ confidence is at its highest as they continue to accumulate the token. However, the relative strength index (RSI) suggests that the momentum will slow down. But this may occur well after a breakthrough on the $8 ceiling. If this occurs, investors and traders have a shot at $9 in the long term. Putting the market’s general sentiment into consideration, HNT might experience a slight pullback, possibly returning to the $7-$8 price range before a strong upward push towards $9. This represents a nearly 22% increase in price. Investors and traders, however, should be mindful of the market as any swing of the broader market might influence the token’s trajectory in more ways than one. Featured image from Live Science, chart from TradingView Christian Encila They say journalists never truly clock out. But for Christian, that's not just a metaphor, it's a lifestyle. By day, he navigates the ever-shifting tides of the cryptocurrency market, wielding words like a seasoned editor and crafting articles that decipher the jargon for the masses. When the PC goes on hibernate mode, however, his pursuits take a more mechanical (and sometimes philosophical) turn. Christian's journey with the written word began long before the age of Bitcoin. In the hallowed halls of academia, he honed his craft as a feature writer for his college paper. This early love for storytelling paved the way for a successful stint as an editor at a data engineering firm, where his first-month essay win funded a months-long supply of doggie and kitty treats – a testament to his dedication to his furry companions (more on that later). Christian then roamed the world of journalism, working at newspapers in Canada and even South Korea. He finally settled down at a local news giant in his hometown in the Philippines for a decade, becoming a total news junkie. But then, something new caught his eye: cryptocurrency. It was like a treasure hunt mixed with storytelling - right up his alley! So, he landed a killer gig at NewsBTC, where he's one of the go-to guys for all things crypto. He breaks down this confusing stuff into bite-sized pieces, making it easy for anyone to understand (he salutes his management team for teaching him this skill). Think Christian's all work and no play? Not a chance! When he's not at his computer, you'll find him indulging his passion for motorbikes. A true gearhead, Christian loves tinkering with his bike and savoring the joy of the open road on his 320-cc Yamaha R3. Once a speed demon who hit 120mph (a feat he vowed never to repeat), he now prefers leisurely rides along the coast, enjoying the wind in his thinning hair. Speaking of chill, Christian's got a crew of furry friends waiting for him at home. Two cats and a dog. He swears cats are way smarter than dogs (sorry, Grizzly), but he adores them all anyway. Apparently, watching his pets just chillin’ helps him analyze and write meticulously formatted articles even better. Here's the thing about this guy: He works a lot, but he keeps himself fueled by enough coffee to make it through the day - and some seriously delicious (Filipino) food. He says a delectable meal is the secret ingredient to a killer article. And after a long day of crypto crusading, he unwinds with some rum (mixed with milk) while watching slapstick movies. Looking ahead, Christian sees a bright future with NewsBTC. He says he sees himself privileged to be part of an awesome organization, sharing his expertise and passion with a community he values, and fellow editors - and bosses - he deeply respects. So, the next time you tread into the world of cryptocurrency, remember the man behind the words – the crypto crusader, the grease monkey, and the feline philosopher, all rolled into one.
