Crypto Industry News:

On August 11, 2022, Ethereum developers notified the community during the Consensus Layer Call live stream that the Merge update is likely to occur between September 15-16. The next day, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin confirmed that The Merge is likely to take place on September 15th.

Since then, everyone has been asking where the current Ethereum hashrate will go after the update goes live. There has always been a lot of speculation that most of the ETH hashrates will be redirected to Ethereum Classic (ETC), however this is not the only opinion.

There was one significant drop in ETH network hashrate that started on June 6. Statistics show that on that day 1.23 petahashas per second (PH /s) or 1,230 terahashas per second (TH /s) was dedicated to the Ethereum network. The data shows that around 230 TH /s have left the network, but none of the chains supporting Ethash have recorded hashrate accumulation on such a scale.

Technical Market Outlook:

The ETH/USD pair has hit the level of $1,990, which is the 100% Fibonacci extension of the wave A. The local high was made at the level of $2,029, nevertheless the upside is limited due to the key technical resistance located at the level of $2,040. The momentum had violated the level of fifty already and it points to the south indicating a strong bearish activity. The nearest technical resistance is seen at $1,915 and must be clearly violated in order to continue the up move. The key short-term technical support is located lower, between the levels of $1,785 - $1,756.

Trading Outlook:

The down trend on the Ethereum might have been terminated at the level of $880. So far every bounce and attempt to rally is being used to sell Ethereum for a better price by the market participants, so the bearish pressure is still high. The next key psychological level for bulls is located at $2,000 and needs to be clearly violated before any extension higher.
