Crypto Analyst Warns of Dire Consequences for Altcoins if Bitcoin Dips Below Key Level
Crypto analyst Jason Pizzino has issued a warning to altcoin investors, stating that the severity of a correction for altcoins will depend on how far Bitcoin dips. Pizzino predicts that if Bitcoin breaks down to $26,000 or even $24,900, it will have dire consequences on altcoins. However, if Bitcoin breaks the 50% level at $26,700, altcoins will continue to struggle and experience worse declines. Pizzino believes that a decline in altcoins will prompt traders to transfer some of their alt investments to BTC, which will help prop it up and lessen its downtrend.

Wait time for new validators to be deployed to the Ethereum network has been reduced to just 5 hours
According to data on the blockchain, the once-crowded new validator queue on the Ethereum blockchain has almost completely cleared, with only 598 validators waiting to enter the network, down from a peak of over 96,000 in early June. This means that as of today, the expected wait time to add new validators to the Ethereum network has been reduced to less than five hours, a significant decrease compared to the peak of a 45-day wait period in early June. David Lawant, the head of research at institutional crypto exchange FalconX, said that since the Ethereum merger and Shapella upgrade, ETH staking growth has been "exceptionally strong," but the initial enthusiasm has started to cool off, and an empty activation queue means that ETH staking growth is slowing down.
