Bitcoin, Ethereum Technical Analysis: BTC Above $28,000, as Markets Remain Buoyed by Grayscale Court Win

Bitcoin climbed over the $28,000 level late on Tuesday, as markets reacted to the news that Grayscale had won its battle with the SEC. The ruling over the U.S. Securities and Exchanges Commission boosted crypto prices across the board, with bulls returning to action. Ethereum also surged, moving above $1,700.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin moved back over the $28,000 level during the last several hours, following Grayscale’s court win over the Securities and Exchanges Commission.

After trading at a low of $25,998.08 earlier in the day, BTC/USD peaked at $28,089.34 late on Tuesday.

This pushed the world’s largest cryptocurrency to its highest point since August 17, when price was on the cusp on $29,000.

Earlier gains have since fallen, as traders have seemingly captured profits, with bitcoin now trading at $27,353.52.

From the chart, this comes as the relative strength index (RSI), reached a ceiling of 53.00, before falling lower.

As of writing this, the index is now tracking at 48.52.

Ethereum

In addition to bitcoin, ethereum (ETH) bulls made an appearance over the past 24-hours, pushing price above $1,700 in the process.

ETH/USD rose to an intraday high of $1,742.64 during Tuesday’s session, after trading by as much as $100.00 lower earlier in the day.

Like with BTC, this saw ethereum move to its highest level in almost two-weeks, and close to a resistance level of $1,750.

This rally has since lost momentum, with price strength running into a wall at the 49.00 mark, and is now at a reading of 46.85.

A floor of 41.00 now awaits, in the event bulls continue to capture recent profits, giving way to bears to reenter.

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,...

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 ...
