Into the details:
Not much to report in markets which seems to lead ETH into being rangebound within the same $100 range. I don't seeing too much change here for a while however alot of the data looks very positive for Ethereum and cryptocurrencies in general. Usually when we hit lows of crypto being sent to exchanges it means people aren't as interested in trading or selling, and instead, holding. A pretty positive sign in the current dull markets.
NFT's:
A general mention to exercise extra caution when looking at dramatic changes in floor price or volume. It's very easy to wash trade in the current market and a very small amount of sales can drastically alter how a project's floor is perceived. Just look at Digidaigaku's 200 ETH sale which skyrocketed it to 3rd in the Opensea volume leaderboard with one sale.
To look out for:
Matic/Polygon continuing to innovate and form incredible partnerships may not necessarily mean it's the best time to buy after a recent price spike, but generally their continued announcements and ability to tie themselves into tech across the space make this one to have notifications turned on for.
