Bitcoin, Ethereum Technical Analysis: ETH Bounces Back, up 2%, While BTC Climbs Above $30,000

Following a fall below $30,000 on Tuesday, BTC marginally rebounded, as prices began to consolidate above support. ETH was also higher in today’s hump-day session, climbing above $2,400 in the process.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin’s bleeding somewhat eased on Wednesday, as a marginal rebound pushed the price above $30,000.

Prices were trading below this level on Tuesday, as the world’s largest cryptocurrency hit an intraday low of $29,944.80.

So far today, BTC/USD has risen to a peak of $32,242.15, as it begins to move away from yesterday’s eleven-month low.

As of writing, prices have failed to breakout beyond a key resistance level at $32,500, which would bring BTC back into its 2022 trading range.

Following slippage from its own floor of 30.13, the 14-day RSI is now tracking above this level, and is currently at 32.18.

Overall, bitcoin is still oversold, however with uncertainty in crypto markets still rife, it is unclear if we have hit a bottom in BTC’s price.

Ethereum

After almost going below $2,100 on Tuesday, ETH was trading higher during today’s session, with prices closing in on a key level.

ETH/USD hit an intraday peak of $2,450.76 earlier today, as bulls attempt to lift prices above the $2,500 resistance line.

Despite today’s rebound in price, any significant surges will be challenged by upcoming hurdles, especially in terms of relative strength.

As of writing, the 14-day Relative Strength Index is tracking at 37.32, which is slightly under resistance of 40.

Should this ceiling be re-captured, we will also likely see ETH above $2,500. However, price uncertainty will likely lead to a decline in upwards momentum.

Overall, prices are currently trading nearly 2% higher than yesterday’s low, with ETH up 1.26% as of writing.

Is now an ideal time to buy an ETH dip, or are there more lows ahead? Leave your thoughts in the comments below.

Trustee Updates Mt Gox Creditors — Repayment Date and Exchange Still Unknown Last week speculation and rumors concerning the release of 140K bitcoin ( BTC ) from Mt Gox littered social media platforms and headlines.

Economists Discuss Russia, China Potentially Developing Gold-Backed Currency That Could Undermine US Dollar

Economists have weighed in on reports that China and Russia may be developing a new gold-backed currency that could undermine the U.S. dollar’s status as the world’s primary reserve currency. Russia and China May Be Developing Gold-Backed Currency Several experts have shared their views on Russia and China potentially creating a new gold-baked currency, Fox Business reported Saturday, emphasizing that China has been buying up huge quantities of gold while Russia was forced off the U.S. dollar due to sanctions imposed on the country following its invasion of Ukraine. The news outlet noted that some experts have cautioned that these moves, along with the closer relationship that has developed between Moscow and Beijing, point to the likelihood of China attempting to launch a gold-backed currency. However, neither Russia nor China has officially confirmed plans for such a currency. Craig Singleton, senior fellow at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies and a former U.S. diplomat,...

Fidelity Discusses Bitcoin as Portfolio Insurance — Could Soon Stand in ‘Stark Contrast’ to Path Fiat Currencies Take

Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, says that bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance. The firm notes that the cryptocurrency “may soon stand in stark contrast to the path that the rest of the world and fiat currencies may take — namely the path of increased supply, additional currency creation, and central bank balance sheet expansion.” Fidelity Says Bitcoin Could Be Portfolio Insurance Fidelity Digital Assets, a subsidiary of Fidelity Investments, recently published a research study titled “The Rising Dollar and Bitcoin.” The research outlines “how bitcoin could be considered portfolio insurance” as the rising dollar impacts global currency markets. “The strengthening U.S. dollar is wreaking havoc among other countries and may put pressure on the Federal Reserve to soon reverse its tightening monetary actions, something that has precedent based on 1985’s Plaza Accord,” Fidelity explained. In addition, “more monetary debasement may be needed to ...
