With DeFi largely underperforming its peers over the past few months, it comes as no surprise that we're starting to see bullish momentum rotate back into the space over the past few days. This is evident when looking at DeFi's total value locked (TVL), which just jumped from 52.5B on Monday to today's reading of 59.8B. Curve (CRV) is among the various DeFi plays that appear to be regaining bullish momentum...
Curve is a software that uses multiple cryptocurrencies to operate an automated market making (AMM) service focused on stablecoins (cryptocurrencies programmed to mimic other assets). One of a number of emerging decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols built on Ethereum, Curve facilitates trading not using a central order book, but rather pools of cryptocurrencies provided by users, who in turn can earn fees through their deposits. Like Uniswap or Balancer, Curve gives cryptocurrency users a way to earn fees on their assets, while letting traders buy and sell those assets at potentially better prices. What sets Curve apart from similar platforms, however, is its focus on markets for stablecoins like Maker and USDT, meant to track the price of U.S. dollars, as well as stablecoins like wBTC and renBTC designed to track the price of Bitcoin. Because of the variety of options on the market, each with its own level of risk, Curve’s goal is to allow stablecoins to be traded with low fees and minimal variation in price.
Ok. The technicals. CRV's +25% rally today has pushed the cryptoasset to a new YTD high and through the $3.65 breakout price of a bullish cup & handle pattern formation. Although it's unclear whether CRV will be able to hold above $3.65 and continue trending higher, this breakout could most certainly transpire to a new parabolic uptrend for CRV. To get an implied price target of the cup & handle, first we measure from the lowest point of the cup to the breakout price ($3.65). Then we use that distance to extrapolate from the breakout price. By doing so, we'll find that CRV's implied target is roughly $7, or a +75% gain from CRV's current price of $4. Needless to say, things could most certainly get interesting from here on out...
