Arbitrum ARB Flashes TD Sequential Buy Signal as Token Eyes $0.20 Recovery

blockchain11

Crypto analyst, Ali Charts identified via the TD Sequential Indicator a possible reversal for Arbitrum based on the 12-hour chart indicating a buying opportunity. The TD Sequential Indicator predicts the potential of a bounce for ARB from one to four candlestick formations based on current price of ARB near $0.18. ARB is currently above key support levels at $0.17, which is approximately 88% below its previous all-time high of $2.40. Traders will be monitoring to see if signals from the TD Sequential Indicator can create upward price movement for ARB.

Comprehending the TD Sequential Signal

The TD Sequential is a counter-trend indicator developed by market timing expert Tom DeMark, which is meant to detect trend exhaustion and potential price reversals. It has two phases, the Setup and the Countdown, during the Setup phase the indicator adds nine consecutive candles in the same direction. In Arbitrum’s case, this was nine red candles closing below the close four periods back, so selling pressure may be peaking.

This signal is significant due to its historical accuracy for ARB in which similar setups in 2024 typically resulted in rallies of 10% to 30%. Analysts generally look for confirmation from multiple sources before determining to enter into a position, and therefore, ARB’s RSI at approximately 30.57 on the seven-day chart confirms the potential for a bounce; it should be noted, though, that traders must be vigilant since there are often many false signals, especially during times of increased market volatility.

Ecosystem Dynamics of Layer-2 and Price Pressure

Arbitrum is the most popular Ethereum Layer-2 when it comes to total value locked, but that has not corresponded to a price momentum for ARB in recent times. The network holds over $2.6 billion in TVL and remains at the forefront in terms of the amount of transactions and settlement of stablecoins.

The development of the ecosystem has had mixed success rates. On January 19, JasmyChain successfully migrated its mainnet to the Arbitrum Orbit network and became an EVM-compatible layer two, using ARB to pay for transaction fees. In addition, whale confidence was demonstrated on Arbitrum by a large deposit of $18.7 million in ETH into Aave.

The challenge for ARB is value capture as it is a governance token and not a gas or utility token; thus, growth of the network does not directly create demand for ARB tokens. In addition to this, there is the impending token unlock, creating extra supply pressure on the market due to both recent and future releases, impacting the immediate price of ARB tokens.

Market Conditions and Price Objectives

Crypto sentiment overall is still bearish with the Fear & Greed Index at 34 and the Altcoin Season Index at 31. Layer-2 coins are heavily impacted by the market “risk-off” attitude. Capital remains focused on bitcoin and large-cap assets rather than speculative Altcoins.

After the TD Sequential signal, ARB must decisively break over $0.21 to rise. Associated with the 7-day Simple Moving Average, this psychological level is crucial. If $0.21 breaks out, $0.24, the 50-day moving average, might be reached, a 26% gain from current prices. In contrast, losing $0.17 support on significant volume would invalidate the bullish setup and expose the downside to $0.15.

Conclusion

The TD Sequential buy signal holds hope for the trader’s enduring ARB’s 71% annual decline. Success is dependent on the technical signal being at hold, an improvement of market conditions and easing supply pressure from token unlock. Conservative traders should be waiting for breakout above $0.21 with volume confirmed. Aggressive traders that are accumulating between $0.19-$0.20 will have to be tighter with risk management. Even reliable indicators need to be combined with fundamental analysis, as well as proper risk controls, before trading decisions are made.

Google's AP2 protocol has been released. Does encrypted AI still have a chance?

Google's AP2 protocol has been released. Does encrypted AI still have a chance?

Following the MCP and A2A protocols, the AI Agent market has seen another blockbuster arrival: the Agent Payments Protocol (AP2), developed by Google. This will clearly further enhance AI Agents' autonomous multi-tasking capabilities, but the unfortunate reality is that it has little to do with web3AI. Let's take a closer look: What problem does AP2 solve? Simply put, the MCP protocol is like a universal hook, enabling AI agents to connect to various external tools and data sources; A2A is a team collaboration communication protocol that allows multiple AI agents to cooperate with each other to complete complex tasks; AP2 completes the last piece of the puzzle - payment capability. In other words, MCP opens up connectivity, A2A promotes collaboration efficiency, and AP2 achieves value exchange. The arrival of AP2 truly injects "soul" into the autonomous collaboration and task execution of Multi-Agents. Imagine AI Agents connecting Qunar, Meituan, and Didi to complete the booking of flights, hotels, and car rentals, but then getting stuck at the point of "self-payment." What's the point of all that multitasking? So, remember this: AP2 is an extension of MCP+A2A, solving the last mile problem of AI Agent automated execution. What are the technical highlights of AP2? The core innovation of AP2 is the Mandates mechanism, which is divided into real-time authorization mode and delegated authorization mode. Real-time authorization is easy to understand. The AI Agent finds the product and shows it to you. The operation can only be performed after the user signs. Delegated authorization requires the user to set rules in advance, such as only buying the iPhone 17 when the price drops to 5,000. The AI Agent monitors the trigger conditions and executes automatically. The implementation logic is cryptographically signed using Verifiable Credentials (VCs). Users can set complex commission conditions, including price ranges, time limits, and payment method priorities, forming a tamper-proof digital contract. Once signed, the AI Agent executes according to the conditions, with VCs ensuring auditability and security at every step. Of particular note is the "A2A x402" extension, a technical component developed by Google specifically for crypto payments, developed in collaboration with Coinbase and the Ethereum Foundation. This extension enables AI Agents to seamlessly process stablecoins, ETH, and other blockchain assets, supporting native payment scenarios within the Web3 ecosystem. What kind of imagination space can AP2 bring? After analyzing the technical principles, do you think that's it? Yes, in fact, the AP2 is boring when it is disassembled alone. Its real charm lies in connecting and opening up the "MCP+A2A+AP2" technology stack, completely opening up the complete link of AI Agent's autonomous analysis+execution+payment. From now on, AI Agents can open up many application scenarios. For example, AI Agents for stock investment and financial management can help us monitor the market 24/7 and conduct independent transactions. Enterprise procurement AI Agents can automatically replenish and renew without human intervention. AP2's complementary payment capabilities will further expand the penetration of the Agent-to-Agent economy into more scenarios. Google obviously understands that after the technical framework is established, the ecological implementation must be relied upon, so it has brought in more than 60 partners to develop it, almost covering the entire payment and business ecosystem. Interestingly, it also involves major Crypto players such as Ethereum, Coinbase, MetaMask, and Sui. Combined with the current trend of currency and stock integration, the imagination space has been doubled. Is web3 AI really dead? Not entirely. Google's AP2 looks complete, but it only achieves technical compatibility with Crypto payments. It can only be regarded as an extension of the traditional authorization framework and belongs to the category of automated execution. There is a "paradigm" difference between it and the autonomous asset management pursued by pure Crypto native solutions. The Crypto-native solutions under exploration are taking the "decentralized custody + on-chain verification" route, including AI Agent autonomous asset management, AI Agent autonomous transactions (DeFAI), AI Agent digital identity and on-chain reputation system (ERC-8004...), AI Agent on-chain governance DAO framework, AI Agent NPC and digital avatars, and many other interesting and fun directions. Ultimately, once users get used to AI Agent payments in traditional fields, their acceptance of AI Agents autonomously owning digital assets will also increase. And for those scenarios that AP2 cannot reach, such as anonymous transactions, censorship-resistant payments, and decentralized asset management, there will always be a time for crypto-native solutions to show their strength? The two are more likely to be complementary rather than competitive, but to be honest, the key technological advancements behind AI Agents currently all come from web2AI, and web3AI still needs to keep up the good work!
