Biggest Movers: LTC Nears 6-Month High, as Near Rebounds From Recent Lows

Litecoin has been a notable mover on Nov. 30, as the token edged closer to a recent six month high. Following yesterday’s gains, cryptocurrency prices remained in the green on Wednesday, with the global market capitalization up 2.07% as of writing this. Near protocol also surged today, as prices rebounded from recent lows.

Litecoin

Litecoin (LTC) moved closer to a six month high on Wednesday, as the token rose for a second straight session.

LTC/USD rallied to an intraday high of $79.73 earlier in today’s session, less than 24-hours after trading at a low of $75.21.

The move saw LTC climb to its highest point since last Wednesday, when the token hit a high of $83.43.

This was the strongest point litecoin was trading at since May 10, and comes as the relative strength index (RSI) rebounded from a recent floor.

As of writing this, the index is currently tracking at 65.48, which is above a support point of 61.45.

Earlier gains have somewhat eased, with LTC now trading at $78.04. Despite this, bulls likely will still be targeting a move above $80.00.

Near Protocol

Near protocol (NEAR) was another notable gainer on Wednesday, as prices continued to move away from recent lows.

Following a low of $1.59 on Tuesday, NEAR/USD surged to an intraday high of $1.73 earlier today.

As a result of this, near protocol moved away from its long-term support point of $1.50, and is now nearing a resistance point of $1.75.

Looking at the chart, the RSI is now hovering slightly above a ceiling of 35.00, and is tracking at 35.07.

As of writing this, NEAR has fallen below earlier highs of $1.73, and is currently trading at $1.70.

Should price strength continue to move above its current ceiling, we will likely see the token race past the $1.75 point, and edge closer to $2.00.

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.

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,...
