Biggest Movers: WAVES, NEAR Hit Multi-Week Lows on Saturday

NEAR fell to a one-month low to start the weekend, as prices moved below their long-term support point. WAVES was also lower during Saturday’s session, falling by as much as 14%. Overall, crypto markets are down nearly 5% as of writing.

Near Protocol (NEAR)

NEAR was one of the most notable movers to start the weekend, as prices fell by over 10% on Saturday.

Following a peak of $5.03 on Friday, NEAR/USD has so far slipped to an intraday low of $4.38 in today’s session

This drop saw prices fall by nearly 13%, and comes as the global crypto market cap is down 4.8% as of writing.

Saturday’s decline came as NEAR broke out of its support point at $4.45, on its way to its lowest point since May 11.

The 14-day RSI is now also firmly oversold, and is trading at 30.62, which is a two-week low, whilst also acting as a floor.

Should this floor be broken, then we may see NEAR move below that one-month low of $3.57, and instead hit an 11-month bottom.

WAVES

WAVES was also down by double digits on Saturday, as it hit a lower low for the tenth consecutive session.

As of writing, WAVES/USD hit an intraday low of $6.30 to start the weekend, which is $1.17 below yesterday’s high.

Looking at the chart, today’s move has pushed WAVES closer to its long-term support of $4.40, which is a level that hasn’t been hit since May 30.

Overall, prices are down over 15% as of writing, and are trading at their lowest point in almost two weeks.

Despite the weakening of the RSI as a result of the sell-off, the indicator has already found another level of support at 36.50.

Relative strength is still moving towards this level however, and should it land there, then WAVES will also likely hit $4.40.

Is it inevitable that WAVES will decline further as the weekend goes on? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.

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 ...

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,...
