A recent quote from Michael Arrington, a partner in Arrington Capital, provides insight into the mindset that the firm took when deciding to invest in Algorand:
A breakdown of the recent major developments for expansion of the Algorand ecosystem can be seen in the following list below:
Algorand Outperforms Broad Market Since May Correction
Since Algorand fell to nearly 0.75 per ALGO off the all time highs during the May 19 correction, it has since rode the growing bullish sentiment and plethora of positive investing news to a massive rally that has taken ALGO back over the $1 USD mark. Algorand has been expanding its potential ecosystem ten fold through the attraction of new capital, the announcement of numerous new start up applications including new tokens, dApps, NFT markets, and more, as well as through the partnership with Miami-based start ups as the City of Miami continues to solidify itself as a leading city in the developing blockchain world.
Visible in the chart below is the recent price channel of Algorand since the May correction. ALGO is currently approaching resistance at the 200 day moving average trend line seen in blue. Expecting a bounce off this level before continuing on is likely, but not guaranteed. A breakthrough of this level and a successful retest will turn this 4 hour level into support, increasing the bullish outlook for ALGO:
Despite massive market volatility in recent weeks, Algorand has managed to hold a relatively steady upward price channel. Algorand has been helped along considerably by the recent major bullish announcements of new developments, but also by the impressive marketing campaign that has been conducted by Algorand itself as well as by the community. Algorand has continued to stay on top of the developing community and overall cryptocurrency market by actively posting and marketing new developments happening on the Algorand network, ensuring that these steps forward for the network are not going unnoticed.
Closing Remarks
The Algorand network continues to impress more and more each day. With the numerous amounts of new announcements for building on Algorand to the overall metrics of the network, Algorand has established itself as one of the most robust blockchain networks out there to date. Algorand is outperforming competitors in terms of network speed, scalability, reliability, and actual utility as new investors enter the ecosystem each day. With major capital investments from Borderless Capital and now Arrington Capital, Algorand has secured avenues of funding for new projects to continue to be developed on Algorand, helping to establish the network for the future of decentralized financial applications.
