Neiro on ETH price doubles as crypto dump unfolds

As a seasoned analyst with over two decades of experience in the financial markets, I’ve seen my fair share of market volatility and trends. This past Friday, September 6, was yet another reminder of the rollercoaster ride that is the crypto and stock markets.


On Friday, September 6, the crypto and stock markets were awash with red, reflecting the market’s response to the conflicting U.S. nonfarm payrolls report.

Bitcoin‘s value plummeted to around $53,000, which is its lowest since August 7, marking a decline for AAVE (AAVE) and Near Protocol (NEAR) by more than 4% as well.

As an analyst, I’ve observed a similar downtrend in the stock market, with the Nasdaq 100, Dow Jones, and S&P 500 indices all experiencing a drop exceeding 1%. Notably, the tech-focused Nasdaq 100 and small-cap-centric Russell 2000 indices were particularly hard hit. Prominent tech companies such as Tesla, Nvidia, and Broadcom saw their shares decline by more than 5%.

Conversely, amidst the ongoing Black Friday sell-off, Neiro on ETH (NEIRO) – a relatively fresh meme coin – emerged as the top performer. The value of its token surged past the 100% mark, peaking at $0.176, which was its highest point since August 5.

Over the past few days, I’ve witnessed an extraordinary surge – a staggering increase of over 538% – in the value of this cryptocurrency. This remarkable rise has catapulted its market capitalization above $147 million. The impetus behind this rally seems to be the rapid virality of the token on social media platforms, making it the most widely shared crypto on X.

After Binance introduced USD-margined perpetual contracts, Neiro on ETH experienced an increase as well. According to data gathered by CoinGlass, the token’s open interest peaked at a new high of $35 million. This significant open interest was primarily from Bybit, suggesting that it might rise further when Binance is fully integrated.

Generally speaking, tokens become more active following their inclusion on major exchanges like Binance and other top-tier platforms. This increased activity is usually temporary as the market adapts to the new status quo. For instance, Pyth Network experienced a surge in value after its listing on Binance in February, but has since reached an all-time low this month.

Another potential danger for Neiro on Ethereum is the possibility of Bitcoin forming a ‘death cross’ pattern, which might cause additional declines. Generally, many altcoins experience a decrease when Bitcoin isn’t performing well.

Even so, a possible motivator for Neiro and similar cryptocurrencies might be a disappointing employment data, leading the Federal Reserve to reduce interest rates – a move that traditionally indicates a bullish market trend.
