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.

Deep Web Roundup: Dream Adds Monero and Bitcoin Tumbler “Chip Mixer” Launches

The darknet has been quiet of late, which is the way it’s meant to be. No news means no mega busts, honeypots, or mass market shutdowns. Even when it’s out of the spotlight though, the deep web is quietly making news, whether trialling the latest privacy coins or the newest coin mixers that promise to restore a little of the privacy that’s being stripped away from bitcoin users on a daily basis. Also read: U.S. Agency ICE Conducts Investigations That Exploit Blockchain Activity The Battle for Privacy Heats Up Privacy is all relative, but of late there’s been relatively little privacy to be enjoyed by bitcoin users. Blockchain monitoring software is becoming more sophisticated and more common, with U.S. law enforcement agencies using it to profile and hunt down deep web users. Chip Mixer is a relatively new bitcoin tumbler that’s designed to restore some of that privacy. Available on both the clearnet and darknet, the service uses a variety of techniques to obfuscate blockchain m...
