💪 Looking at the 1-day candle closure, Ethereum's found solid support at $1.8K. We could be about to see a breakout either way, depends if the bears or bulls dominate as we enter June. And with Bitcoin's dominance decreasing, Ethereum will continue to do its own thing more and more 📊

⛔ What is the U.S. debt ceiling? This is a spending limit set by Congress which dictates how much money the government can borrow.
⛔ Failure to raise it past the current cap of $31 trillion would see them defaulting on their debt. The government could not borrow more money or meet existing debt obligations.

⛔ Bitcoin and Altcoin prices might then plummet. With U.S. making up about 10% of worldwide crypto users, the country’s problems present a real threat as crypto users who lose their job may have to sell their holdings prematurely.
🐸 $PEPE is an ERC-20 token built on the Ethereum blockchain. Its crazy popularity caused some serious on-chain congestion for Ethereum, resulting in high fees and slow transaction times.
