Biggest Movers: UNI, BCH Surge by Over 20%, Hitting Multi-Month Highs

Uniswap was trading over 20% higher in Thursday’s session as the token rose to its highest point since April. This comes as crypto markets surged on Tuesday, in the aftermath of the Fed rate decision. Bitcoin cash moved to a six week high on the news. The global crypto market cap is 6.51% higher as of writing.

Uniswap (UNI)

Uniswap (UNI) was one of Thursday’s notable movers, as the token rose by nearly 30% in today’s session.

Following a low of $6.77 during yesterday’s session, UNI/USD rose to an intraday peak of $8.72 earlier today.

The move saw the token hit its highest level since April 26, when prices were trading around the $9 mark.

Today’s price surge comes as UNI rallied above its recent resistance level of $.7.75, which had been previously held for the last three months.

This rise in price comes as the 14-day relative strength index collided with a resistance level of its own at 69.

Uniswap bulls will likely look to maintain their current momentum, and push prices towards $10, however, this may only occur once the ceiling on the relative strength index (RSI) is broken.

Bitcoin cash (BCH)

In addition to UNI, bitcoin cash (BCH) was also in the green during today’s session, with prices climbing by over 20%.

BCH/USD surged to an intraday peak of $147.57 earlier in the day, which comes less than 24-hours after prices were trading at a low of $117.86.

As of writing, prices were trading over 24% higher than yesterday’s bottom, with BCH at its highest point since June 13.

Similar to uniswap, today’s climb comes as the token broke free of its resistance point, which is at the $132 mark for BCH.

The RSI for bitcoin cash is currently tracking at 67.70, which is its highest reading since April 4, and comes after price strength rose above a resistance level of its own.

Should this momentum continue, the next target for BCH bulls will likely be beyond the $150 point.

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,...
