The ongoing military conflict in Ukraine continues to have an impact on the blockchain and cryptocurrency industry.

The development of Kyber Network (KNC), a decentralized liquidity provisioning protocol built for the Ethereum blockchain, began in 2017. By locking ERC-20 tokens in special smart contracts, Kyber allows users to quickly trade any Ethereum-based token without the participation of a centralized exchange.
Liquidity providers can accept payments in multiple tokens on their e-commerce platforms, but receive them in their preferred token. Liquidity is provided through a network architecture that allows anyone to deposit their assets in the form of tokens into a decentralized central liquidity pool and earn on the spread in every transaction. To operate and ensure the liquidity of the tokens, it is necessary to purchase Kyber Network Crystals (KNC). Kyber Network charges fees for transactions in KNC.
There are four interfaces that can be used to connect to the decentralized liquidity network, each targeting a different user segment: KyberSwap for the general public, KyberDeveloper for businesses, projects or DApps, KyberReserve for token holders with significant assets, and KyberGO for tokens.
Technical analysis of BTC: the formation of a new figure

The price of BTC finally exited the downward channel that existed for quite a long time and tried to break through the $44,200 line. Before that, the price of the asset approached the indicated mark three times, but now it has rolled back down to the support line.
At the moment, the price of bitcoin is below the 200- and 50-day moving averages (MA). Only the support line keeps from a more serious fall. Now a figure similar to a “bearish” triangle is being built, but it is too early to talk about it with certainty.
The scenario played out may turn out to be a trap for the “bulls”, it is necessary to observe the events in the crypto market. The geopolitical situation affecting the markets is unstable and highly unpredictable due to the sanctions imposed on Russia by Western countries.
This has a negative impact on all financial markets, but now Bitcoin is acting as a protective asset, and the instability in the world may be an option for investors trying to keep their funds in a safe asset. However, it is worth considering that investors can choose to save capital and USDT.
Technically, you can trade on small stops: put Stop-Loss behind the support or resistance level, try to find some small movements, but there is no global direction yet, the trend is unclear. We are monitoring the situation.
ETH Technical Analysis: Entering a Bullish Triangle

The situation on the ETH market continues to be dependent on BTC. A figure similar to a “bearish” triangle is also forming on the ether chart. The price of the asset is below the 200- and 50-day moving averages (MA), as in the case of Bitcoin, which is not the most positive signal.
Key support levels: $3350 resistance line and $2400 support line. Now the ether is extremely dependent on the value of the largest cryptocurrency and is not capable of independent sharp price movements in any direction.
Keep Stop-Loss and take into account your own risk management, which at the moment should be the decisive factor in case of making any trading decisions.
