Ethereum Plummets to $4,629: A Tolstoyan Tragedy of Greed 🤦‍♂️📉

And so it was, in the vast and turbulent sea of human speculation, a correction began, as all things must begin and end, a small but perceptible tremor in the foundation of a house built not on brick, but on the shifting sands of hope and avarice.

ETH/USD

The great digital locomotive, this Ethereum, had shed 2.70% of its value in a mere twenty-four hours, a trifle to the eternal sky, but a calamity of profound weight to the man who had staked his future upon it.

On the hourly chart, which men consult as others once consulted oracles, the price lingered near the precipice of $4,519, a local support, a notion as fragile as a gentleman’s honor. If a bounce back-that most fickle of mercies-did not manifest by nightfall, one could only anticipate the breach and a subsequent, sorrowful pilgrimage toward the $4,400 region. A most tedious affair.

On a grander scale, the main altcoin, having attempted a vainglorious and false assault upon the lofty citadel of $4,887, was now in retreat, its brief moment of pomp giving way to the sobering gravity of reality.

Should the daily bar conclude its journey near its nadir, a pitiful and abbreviated thing with no long wick to suggest a struggle, then the descent would assuredly continue its mournful march toward the valley of $4,300-$4,400. A fitting punishment for hubris.

Yet, in the manner of a long Russian winter, the midterm view offers no certain solace. To speak of the future is the business of fools and charlatans. If, by some miraculous turn, the weekly candle finds repose near or above the $4,788 mark, then, and only then, might the fantastical test of the $5,000 peak enter the realm of possibility. A distant dream, like universal brotherhood. 😌

Thus, at the hour of this writing, amidst the collective sigh of a thousand disappointed speculators, Ethereum is exchanged at the solemn price of $4,629.
