Biggest Movers: SOL Nears $26.00 Resistance Level, MATIC Moves Away From Support

Biggest Movers: SOL Nears $26.00 Resistance Level, as MATIC Moves Away From Support

Solana was once again in the green, with bulls pushing the token towards a key resistance level at $26.00. The move comes after yesterday’s 7% surge, however earlier gains have since declined, as U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) grew 2.4% as opposed to the 1.8% expectation for Q2. Polygon also climbed higher today, bouncing from a support level around $0.7000.

Solana (SOL)

Solana (SOL) moved closer to a long-term resistance level of $26.00 on Thursday, as sentiment in the token remained bullish.

Following a low of $24.45 on Wednesday, SOL/USD surged to an intraday high of $25.59 earlier in today’s session.

As a result of the move, solana climbed to its highest point since last Saturday, when price peaked at $25.97.

One of the reasons behind today’s rally appears to be a breakout which took place at a ceiling of 59.00 on the relative strength index (RSI).

As of writing, the index is now tracking at 59.90, with SOL bulls giving up some of their earlier gains.

Despite climbing by nearly 10% in the past two days, the token is down by 2.80% in the past week, following a recent bear run.

Polygon (MATIC)

Polygon (MATIC) bounced from a recent support point earlier in today’s session, as bulls rejected an extended sell-off.

MATIC/USD peaked at $0.7347 on Thursday, a day after falling to a bottom at the $0.7124 mark.

The initial move came as the world’s 11th largest cryptocurrency continued to climb away from floor at $0.7000.

This coincided with the RSI moving away from a support level of its own at 45.00. It is now tracking at 48.24.

Despite this, the 10-day (red) and 25-day (blue) moving averages still look set for a downward cross in the coming days.

Should this occur, the next target for sellers will likely be near the $0.5900 zone.

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.

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,...
