Bitcoin, Ethereum Technical Analysis: BTC, ETH Consolidate, Following Last Week’s Losses

Bitcoin, Ethereum Technical Analysis: BTC, ETH Consolidate, Following Last Week’s Losses

Bitcoin rebounded from this weekend’s low on Monday, as markets attempted to consolidate following recent losses. The cryptocurrency rose back above the $26,000 level, after a brief stint below this point. Ethereum also settled, after declines over the weekend.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin was marginally higher to start the week, as the cryptocurrency climbed back above the $26,000 level on Monday.

Following a low of $25,919.02 on Sunday, BTC/USD rose to an intraday peak at $26,260.68 earlier in the day.

Overall, bitcoin traders seem to have found a semi-stable floor around the $25,900 mark, and now look set to potentially recover some of last week’s gains.

Looking at the chart, the relative strength index (RSI) is now tracking at 20.57, which is still deep in the oversold region.

This could work out to benefit bulls however, as bearish momentum may be fully exhausted after last week’s run.

Ethereum

Ethereum (ETH) was marginally higher on Monday, as price continued to settle around a new support point.

ETH/USD hit a high of $1,692.33 to start the week, as bulls attempted to take the world’s second largest cryptocurrency back above $1,700.

The jump in price came as ethereum settled on a support point around the $1,650 mark, with bulls using this as a point of reentry.

Similar to bitcoin above, the 14-day RSI remains oversold, and is currently tracking around the 25.00 region.

From the chart, the next visible point of resistance seems to be at the 31.00 level, which bulls will likely be targeting.

Should they break out of this point, ETH will likely move back above $1,700.

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. 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,...
