Biggest Movers: ATOM Moves Closer to 4-Month High, LINK Also Higher

Cosmos was once again in the green, as the token moved closer to a four-month high during Friday’s session. Prices rose past a key resistance level during the day, as bullish sentiment continued to rise. Chainlink also traded higher, as prices surged for a third straight session.

Cosmos (ATOM)

Cosmos (ATOM) continued to trade higher on Friday, as the token moved closer to a multi-month high.

ATOM/USD rose to an intraday high of $16.25 in today’s session, pushing prices above a key resistance level in the process.

The aforementioned ceiling is the $16.15 level. The move comes less than 24 hours after prices were trading at a low of $14.40.

Friday’s surge takes the token closer to last Friday’s peak of $17.20, which was the highest point for ATOM since May 9.

As seen from the chart above, the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) is tracking at the 65.00 mark, which has historically been a level of resistance.

If cosmos were to recapture, and surge past last week’s high, then the likelihood of ATOM moving above $17.20 would exponentially increase.

Chainlink (LINK)

Like ATOM, chainlink (LINK) also rose for a third consecutive session on Friday, as bulls continued to push prices toward a key resistance level.

Following a low of $7.07 on Thursday, LINK/USD raced to an intraday high of $7.77 earlier in the day.

This peak pushed the token closer to its long-term price ceiling of $8.05, which is the level LINK was trading at to start the week.

However, following disappointing inflation data from the United States, market volatility rose, sending crypto prices mostly lower.

Today’s surge comes as the 14-day RSI moved past a key obstacle, which in this instance is the 53.95 resistance level.

Bulls will likely continue to target a move above $8.00 this weekend, however it remains to be seen if there is enough momentum in the market to see this through.

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 ...
