What is Ethereum Merge?
Based on Ethereum.org (here), Ethereum Merge marks the end of proof-of-work for Ethereum and the full transition to proof-of-stake. The two major advantages are:
This sets the stage for future scaling upgrades including sharding.
The Merge will reduce Ethereum’s energy consumption by ~99.95%.
Therefore this event has been marked as the primary catalyst of Ethereum ($ETH). We can see from the following weekly chart below where $ETH has been pushed up more than 100% from the year low $994.
$ETH and $RIOT weekly charts
$ETH briefly broke above $2000/coin and pulled back this weekend. The daily and weekly charts still flag to the upside. If we look at the other crypto miner stock, $RIOT and its weekly chart, it just highly correlates with $ETH.
We expect $ETH to push into $2,162~$2,396 into the Sept 17, 2022 merge, where our new analysis suggests $RIOT could push into 11.89~17.29, respectively.
