Biggest Movers: SOL Rebounds From 2-Month Low to Start the Weekend

Solana rebounded from a two-month low to start the weekend, as bulls reentered the market to buy the recent dip. Overall, the global crypto market cap is currently trading 1.8% higher, following a nearly 10% drop on Friday. Polygon was another notable mover, as price rose by nearly 7% on Saturday.

Solana (SOL)

Solana was back in the green to start the weekend, as bulls reappeared following Friday’s red wave.

Following a low of $16.19 in yesterday’s session, SOL/USD moved to an intraday peak of $18.85 on Saturday.

The move sees solana climb above a recent floor at $17.30, moving away from its weakest point since January 13 in the process.

Looking at the chart, this was helped by the relative strength index (RSI), which found a point of support at the 30.00 level.

As of writing, the index is now tracking at 32.85, which despite the rebound, remains deep in bearish territory.

The momentum of the 10-day (red) moving average continues to trend downwards, which could be a sign that there could be more turbulence ahead.

Polygon (MATIC)

In addition to solana, polygon (MATIC) also rebounded from a multi-month low during Saturday’s session.

MATIC/USD jumped by nearly 7% earlier in the day, hitting a high of $1.09, after dropping to $0.9545 on Friday.

This was the lowest point for the token since the last week of January, and led to price strength moving deep into bear territory.

The RSI for MATIC is now tracking at 35.00, following a move to 32.00 during yesterday’s session.

Overall, polygon is down nearly 12% in the last week, however it appears that it could be on course to finding a floor.

Should this be the case, there could be some long-term bulls rushing in to buy the current dip.

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,...
