A crypto analyst has reaffirmed a bullish outlook for XRP, suggesting that the cryptocurrency’s price action is unfolding exactly as anticipated. The analyst points out that XRP is now approaching the critical support level at $1.90, which could signal a potential bullish reversal if the price manages to hold above it. XRP Eyes $1.90 As Key Reversal Zone Crypto market expert CasiTrades believes that the XRP price behavior is moving exactly as predicted following its recent price drop below $2. According to the chart and analysis published on X (formerly Twitter), XRP’s retracement toward the $1.90 region is not a sign of weakness but a textbook setup for a potential reversal. Related Reading: Daily Timeframe Says XRP Price Is On The Verge Of Breakout The $1.90 level represents a major Fibonacci Retracement zone, specifically the 0.5 retracement from the macro correction, which the analyst has been closely watching for a possible price reaction. According to CasiTrades, this zone is more than just a random support level—it aligns with a pattern that the analyst described in earlier updates. In these previous reports, CasiTrades was watching out for distinct price movements during XRP’s decline, including a bounce off a key Fibonacci level, a short-term fakeout upward to trap late buyers, and a final drop back into the support zone, where Bullish Divergence can develop. This distinct price pattern now appears to be playing out exactly as expected on the XRP price chart. If XRP holds above the $1.90 level while forming a Bullish Divergence on the Relative Strength Index (RSI), it could confirm a textbook bottom setup and potentially signal the start of a new impulsive rally. XRP And Bitcoin Display Synchronized Patterns CasiTrades’ price chart shows XRP forming a Descending Triangle, with its latest move dipping just into a high-demand zone marked by previous price reactions. In line with the Elliott Wave Theory, this pattern suggests the upcoming completion of Wave 2 with a massive breakout in Wave 3 potentially taking shape if the $1.90 support level holds. Additional support from key Fibonacci levels, such as the 0.618 and 2.136 extensions at $2.0 and $2.1, respectively, reinforces strength in XRP’s potential for a rebound.

This synchronized structure across both XRP and BTC adds heavy confluence. CasiTrades notes that this current downturn is not a breakdown, but rather a final calculated shakeout before a broader rally. If both Bitcoin and XRP reach as expected while positioned at $0.19 and $97,000 respectively, the analyst believes it could trigger a new bullish leg in the crypto cycle.

XRP has once again landed at an important support level that places it in view of a rebound upwards or at risk of a further 20% crash. According to technical analyst CasiTrades, the recent drop was anticipated for weeks, and the precision with which XRP touched the $2.01 zone has added weight to its importance. The analyst noted that the drop out of the symmetrical triangle consolidation was clean and technically sound, and the $2.01 level has so far acted as the level for an upward bounce. Technical Setup Says Danger Zone Below $2.00 Still Active XRP price action in the past few days has been marked by a downtrend. XRP lost the $2.13 price level over the weekend before eventually cascading to a crash below $2 in the past 24 hours. Particularly, XRP crashed to bottom out at $1.92 before staging a rebound back above $2, at least at the time of writing. Related Reading: XRP To End 7-Month Consolidation After 700% Surge – Is A Major Move Coming? As it stands, XRP is now back to trading at $2.01, a price level that holds utmost importance for its price action in the coming days. According to a technical analysis posted on the social media platform X by crypto analyst CasiTrades, $2.01 is important for XRP, as it coincides with a major 0.618 Fib support level. Supporting this view is a visible bullish divergence forming on both the 15-minute and 1-hour Relative Strength Index (RSI), as depicted on the price chart below. However, the analyst was quick to warn that confirmation is still lacking on the higher 4-hour and daily timeframes. Without these confirmations, the bounce could still be nonexistent, and XRP could crash strongly below $2. XRP is currently at risk unless buyers manage to push its price into higher confirmation zones, specifically into the $3.00 range. According to CasiTrades, if any bounce at $2.01 fails to carry through, XRP could be headed for its next supports at $1.90 and then $1.55. The latter represents a rough 23% drop from current levels, a scenario that would invalidate the bullish RSI divergence on the smaller timeframes. Geopolitical Tensions Causing XRP Price Volatility The timing of XRP’s sharp drop over the weekend coincided with reports of geopolitical unrest, particularly the reported bombing of Iran by the US. This event caused widespread volatility in the crypto market, which was opened over the weekend. Related Reading: Why The XRP Price Risks A Crash To $0.9 As Bearish Pressures Mount Although the decline seems to be pausing in recent trading hours, it does not yet qualify as a bounce. XRP price is currently fragile, and without a reaction from buyers or confirmation across higher timeframes, the structure is bearish. Selling pressure from new geopolitical tensions or algorithmic moves could potentially lead to deeper declines during the new week, especially if $2.00 fails to hold. In that case, XRP could be on track to retest the $1.90 support and even collapse toward the $1.55 before the end of the week. At the time of writing, XRP is trading at $2.01, down by 2.6% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Pexels, chart from Tradingview.com
Dogecoin’s open interest is in focus, with this crucial metric highlighting the amount of interest that the top meme coin is getting at the moment. This comes as DOGE continues to struggle below the psychological $0.2 level, providing a bearish outlook for the meme coin. Dogecoin Open Interest Averages $2 Billion In June Coinglass data shows that Dogecoin open interest (OI) has been hovering around $2 billion since the start of this month. This represents a drop from the open interest recorded in May. DOGE’s OI had climbed to as high as $3.07 billion on May 11 as the meme coin’s price surged to $0.25. Related Reading: Forget Dogecoin At $1: Price Could Rally To $12 If History Repeats Itself This drop in Dogecoin open interest can be attributed to the drop in DOGE’s price since then. The meme coin began the month below the psychological $0.2 level, which has sparked bearish sentiments. Open interest refers to the amount of interest in the derivatives market for a particular asset. As such, a drop in this metric is usually bearish. However, it is worth mentioning that the Dogecoin open interest is still above the monthly average recorded in March and April, during the period when the Trump tariffs caused crypto assets to tumble. Back then, DOGE dropped to as low as $0.14 and was at risk of losing its bull market structure. Crypto analyst BitMonty expects DOGE to bounce back amid this drop in the Dogecoin open interest. In an X post, he said the meme coin is testing the 0.618 Fib retracement and the lower boundary of a falling wedge. He added that this is a high confluence bounce zone, and reversal signs could spark a breakout move soon. BitMonty predicts that DOGE could rally to as high as $0.26420 on this bounce. DOGE Setting Up For A Bullish Reversal In an X post, crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade indicated that the Dogecoin price may be setting up for a bullish reversal. He revealed that DOGE is returning to the previous swing low, while the RSI shows a higher low. The analyst noted that this could lead to a bullish divergence, indicating weakened selling momentum and early signs of a potential reversal to the upside. Related Reading: Dogecoin Price Expected To Reach $3 By EOY As 2021 Cycle Trend Returns In another X post, Trader Tardigrade stated that Dogecoin is expected to experience a significant surge before entering a prolonged falling wedge pullback. Interestingly, his accompanying chart showed that the meme coin could rally to as high as $30. However, this price surge isn’t expected to happen in just this market cycle alone, with the chart highlighting 2029 as the target year to reach this price level. At the time of writing, the Dogecoin price is trading at around $0.18, down over 3% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.

New reports indicate that the Ethereum (ETH) CrossX indicator is flashing strong buy signals, suggesting a potential breakout toward $4,000. As the market transitions from selling to buying, on-chain data shows that institutional investors are heavily accumulating ETH tokens, indicating a shift in sentiment. Institutions Load Up On ETH As Buy Signal Flashes On-chain analytics platform, Lookonchain, has identified a notable increase in Ethereum accumulation, largely driven by institutional whales. Over the course of three hours, a wallet address reportedly associated with the trading firm Cumberland DRW withdrew a staggering 27,632 ETH, worth approximately $50.24 million. This transfer was made from major exchanges, including Coinbase, Copper and Binance. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Reaches Last H1 Support, Next Major Resistance Comes Into View The wallet’s activity involved multiple high-value transfers, such as a 7,600 ETH withdrawal worth $13.83 million from Coinbase, a 5,992 ETH withdrawal worth $10.92 million from Copper and Binance, and an additional 5,960 ETH transfer valued at $10.88 million from Copper. Notably, the receiving wallet, 0ex287AA111…, was consistently used across all transactions, suggesting coordinated accumulation rather than a typical trading activity. Historically, large-scale withdrawals from Ethereum exchanges have preceded price surges, as they significantly reduce sell-side liquidity and indicate a longer-term holding pattern by investors. Amid this growing institutional accumulation, the Ethereum CrossX Indicator, as noted by Ezy Bitcoin on X, has recently flashed a strong buy signal. This reinforces the notion that institutional interest is rising, signaling an increase in demand and potentially setting the stage for further upward price movement. Ethereum CrossX Indicator Suggests $4,000 Surge Ahead Shedding more light on Ezy Bitcoin’s report, the CrossX indicator, which officially triggered a buy signal for Ethereum, is signaling a potential surge above $4,000 for the altcoin’s price. The market expert highlights that this is the first signal seen in nearly six months and, historically, has often preceded significant price action and explosive moves. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Threatened With Sharp Drop To $1,400, Here’s Why The CrossX Indicator, a tool used to detect high-probability trend reversals based on volume, price action, and divergence patterns, has shown remarkable accuracy in past cycles. As seen in the analyst’s weekly chart, previous buy signals were followed by rallies that took ETH to new local highs. Now, with Ethereum’s price rebounding off recent lows and a fresh Bullish Divergence in place, the same rally pattern may be unfolding again. If history repeats, ETH could be gearing up for a run beyond $3,000, with the possibility of testing the $4,200 range by year’s end. According to CoinMarketCap’s data, Ethereum is currently trading at $1,803, reflecting a yearly decline of 43.10%. A potential rise to $4,200 would represent a staggering 132.95% increase, bringing Ethereum (ETH) closer to its present all-time high of over $4,800.

XRP’s recent recovery has sparked fresh optimism among traders, but what’s happening behind the scenes tells an even more compelling story. This isn’t just a typical bounce; the charts reveal a calculated shift in momentum. Technical indicators like the Relative Strength Index (RSI) and Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) are beginning to align, suggesting that XRP is approaching a crucial decision zone. Following the recent downturn in the market, the price is now on a bullish recovery after testing the $1.7 key support level with increasing conviction. If the current momentum continues and resistance zones give way, XRP could be on the verge of a significant breakout. However, failure to build on this momentum could trap the token in another consolidation phase or a deeper retracement. MACD Signals Brewing Bullish Pressure For XRP In a recent post on X, crypto analyst Javon Marks pointed out that XRP’s MACD is approaching a critical breaking point, potentially signaling a shift in market momentum. He emphasized that this MACD indicator is showing signs of a bullish crossover, which could mark the start of a strong upward movement. Related Reading: This Analyst Correctly Called The XRP Price Crash, Here Are The Next Targets Coupled with this, Marks highlighted that XRP is currently holding a key Regular Bullish Divergence, where the price has been making lower lows while the MACD is showing higher lows. This indicates a weakening of bearish pressure, setting the stage for a potential reversal. Marks suggested that this technical setup could be the catalyst for the bulls to take control, potentially leading to a powerful move that breaks through current resistance levels. With this convergence of bullish signals, XRP may be primed for a rally back toward the $3.30+ range, continuing its previous uptrend. Key Levels to Watch: The Exact Breakout And Rejection Zones That Matter In order to fully understand the future movements of XRP, it’s crucial to pinpoint the key levels that will either drive the price higher or cause a reversal. Firstly, the breakout zone for the altcoin lies around the $1.97 resistance level. Related Reading: XRP Bulls Eye $5 Target: Key Levels To Watch For Potential Breakout If the price manages to surpass this threshold with strong volume, it could trigger a surge towards higher levels, including $2.64 and $2.92. This breakout would likely confirm the upward momentum suggested by the MACD and the regular bullish divergence. On the other hand, a rejection at the $1.97 resistance level might signal a lack of buying interest. Should the asst fail to break above this level, the price could pull back toward lower support levels like $1.7 or even $1.34. A failure to hold these support levels would trigger the potential for a more substantial downturn, with bears regaining control. Featured image from iStock, chart from Tradingview.com
In an X post shared today, acclaimed cryptocurrency analyst Ali Martinez identified two key resistance levels that Ethereum (ETH) must reclaim to confirm a bullish trend reversal. Additionally, ETH is showing signs of bullish divergence on the daily chart, raising optimism among holders that a rally may be closer than expected. Ethereum Must Overcome These Levels For Further Upside Unlike rival cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL), and XRP, ETH’s recent price action has disappointed most of its holders. The second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization is down 49.2% over the past year, in stark contrast to BTC’s 18.5% gain over the same period. Related Reading: Is Ethereum Breaking Free from the Bear Trap? Analysts Weigh In Sharing the following daily chart, Martinez highlighted two critical resistance levels that ETH must surpass to reverse its price trajectory. The analyst stated: Ethereum $ETH needs to reclaim $2,100, and more decisively, $2,300, to confirm a bullish trend reversal. These are the levels to watch! To recall, ETH last traded at the $2,100 level earlier this month on March 9. Interestingly, the digital asset also plunged to as low as $1,754 on the same day, its lowest price in more than a year. After reclaiming $2,100, ETH will need to overcome the more significant $2,300 resistance level. A clear breakout above $2,300 could signal renewed bullish momentum. Meanwhile, altcoin analyst @altcoinrookie shared a bearish forecast for Ethereum, predicting that ETH will dip to $1,200 by June 2025 before reaching new all-time highs (ATHs). ETH Showing Signs Of Bullish Divergence While these analyses suggest short- to mid-term challenges for ETH, crypto trader Merlijn The Trade provided a more optimistic outlook. The analyst shared the following ETH daily chart, noting that the asset is displaying bullish divergence. For the uninitiated, the RSI is a momentum indicator that helps traders and investors to determine when the underlying asset may be overbought or oversold. RSI bullish divergence occurs when the RSI forms higher lows while the price forms lower lows, indicating weakening selling pressure and a potential trend reversal to the upside. Related Reading: Ethereum Gained 160% The Last Time This On-Chain Indicator Flashed – Will ETH Soar Again? The trader further pointed out that although ETH’s price continues to make lower lows, its daily RSI is forming a contrasting trend. Merlijn also shared a two-week ETH price chart, highlighting how Ethereum has historically rebounded from a critical support level since early 2024, often posting significant returns after each bounce. That said, rising ETH reserves on crypto exchanges remain a concern, potentially extending ETH’s price suppression. At press time, ETH trades at $1,840, up 2.1% in the past 24 hours.

Crypto analyst ElmoX has asserted that the XRP price is still bullish despite the recent crypto market crash. His analysis revealed that XRP is set to face major resistance at $2.9, although he is confident that the crypto will eventually break this resistance and rally to as high as $20. XRP Price Faces Resistance At $2.9 But Could Still Rally To $20 In a TradingView post, ElmoX outlined two scenarios for the XRP price as it eyes a rally to $20, although he noted that the crypto will retest the major resistance at around $2.92 either way, on its way to a new all-time high (ATH). For the first scenario, the analyst stated that XRP would break this resistance and then skyrocket to $20. Related Reading: XRP Price Can Fall Further To $1.5 If This Level Fails To Hold Meanwhile, in the second scenario, ElmoX stated that the XRP price could face another rejection, sending it below the $1.5 level before it witnesses a bullish reversal and rallies to a new ATH. The analyst revealed that he is betting on this second scenario since there is usually a swift crash before an impulsive move to the upside. ElmoX remarked that the XRP price has barely corrected, which is also why he believes there could still be a massive crash before a rally to a new ATH. Meanwhile, the analyst didn’t provide an exact timing for the potential price correction and subsequent rally to a new ATH and the $20 price target. Instead, he simply told market participants to be patient. He further warned that the XRP price might sit in price discovery until at least mid-July. His accompanying chart showed that XRP will first drop to as low as $1.20 before it witnesses an impulsive move to as high as $20. The Altcoin Records A Bullish Close In an X post, crypto analyst CasiTrades noted that although the XRP price briefly broke below the $2 trendline, the candle closed back above this trendline, reclaiming the consolidation range. She remarked that this is exactly what bulls needed to see. However, the analyst added that a confirmation is needed with XRP holding the range between $2 and $2.03 as support. Related Reading: XRP Price Continuation After Crash Below $2.4? New Targets Emerge CasiTrades stated that a breakdown from consolidation usually leads to further downsides, but the XRP price managed to recover the level quickly, showing that buyers are stepping in. She also noted that the bullish divergence is still holding up to the 1-hour RSI even after the dip with selling pressure weakening, which suggests a shift in momentum is possible. If the XRP price holds the support between $2 and $2.03, CasiTrades predicts that the crypto could bounce and rally toward $2.25 and $2.70. On the other hand, if XRP loses this level, she stated that the next major support sits at $1.90 which is the 0.5 Fibonacci retracement level. Meanwhile, there is also the possibility that XRP could drop to the 0.618 Fib retracement level at $1.54. At the time of writing, the XRP price is trading at around $2.10, down over 4% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap. Featured image from Adobe Stock, chart from Tradingview.com
The US dollar index (DXY) is experiencing one of its largest weekly declines since 2013, fuelling optimism for a potential rally among risk-on assets, including Bitcoin (BTC). The last time the DXY saw such a sharp pullback was during the height of the FTX fiasco in November 2022, which coincided with a Bitcoin bottom. Will Bitcoin See An Uptrend? BTC is down nearly 10% over the past two weeks, largely due to the hawkish stance of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) and concerns over trade tariffs from the US against Canada, Mexico, and China. Related Reading: Is Bitcoin Showing Early Signs Of Bullish Divergence? Analyst Explains Since March 3, the DXY has slid more than 3%, tumbling from 107 to 103 at the time of writing. This decline has sparked hope among cryptocurrency investors for a potential rally. Historical data supports this outlook. In addition to the $15,000 BTC bottom formed in November 2022, the DXY has experienced similar sharp declines on two other occasions – during the COVID crash in March 2020 and back in the 2015 bear market when the premier cryptocurrency traded at $250. On all three occasions when the DXY dropped more than -4 standard deviations, BTC formed a bottom followed by a trend reversal that saw the digital asset resume its bullish momentum. Crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader shared their thoughts on the DXY-BTC relationship. In an X post, the analyst noted that whenever the DXY Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) has turned bearish, BTC has rallied. The analyst illustrated this with the following chart. Fellow crypto analyst Rekt Capital had a similar perspective. The analyst emphasized that BTC has likely formed a higher low after another downside deviation, which saw the cryptocurrency hit a low of $78,258 on February 28. Important To Clear The $90,000 Resistance Another crypto trader, Daan Crypto Trader, hinted that BTC may target new all-time highs (ATH) around $120,000 if it continues to consolidate near range lows. The trader explained: We’ve seen this during every consolidation this cycle where it breaks lower, fails to see continuation, retakes the range and moves higher from there. Let’s see how this one turns out. That ~$90K level remains key. Related Reading: As Bitcoin Sell Pressure Fades, Could A Local Bottom Be Forming? Analyst Explains Recent analysis from CryptoQuant supports the view that BTC may have already formed a bottom. Additionally, seasoned crypto analyst Ali Martinez recently highlighted that BTC has hit oversold levels not seen since August 2024, likely signalling a trend reversal in the short-term. That said, BTC is also facing a bearish deviation as it fills a new Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) gap, which may dampen hopes for a swift price recovery. At press time, BTC is trading at $86,870, down 3.3% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, charts from X and Tradingview.com
Ethereum (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is flashing multiple bullish signals that suggest a potential upside move. However, rising exchange reserves are tempering this optimism. Has Ethereum Formed A Local Bottom? Ethereum has dropped nearly 20% over the past two weeks, falling from approximately $2,805 on February 23 to just above $2,200 at the time of writing. This decline has wiped out $80 billion from ETH’s market cap. Related Reading: Ethereum Positioned For A ‘Major Move Upward’ In 2025, Analyst Forecasts Despite this sharp pullback, crypto analysts are pointing to several bullish indicators that could signal an impending price reversal. Crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader, for instance, has highlighted that ETH is following the Wyckoff Reaccumulation Pattern. For those unfamiliar, the Wyckoff Reaccumulation Pattern is a technical analysis method developed by Richard Wyckoff. In the context of ETH’s current price action, this pattern suggests that the asset may be entering an accumulation phase before a potential upward movement. The analyst further noted that the “spring phase” has just been triggered – indicating a possible bear trap where a brief dip below support levels misleads sellers, potentially setting the stage for a rally. A bounce from this level could see ETH climb to $4,000. In a separate X post, Merlijn The Trader also pointed to a bullish divergence in Ethereum’s 4-hour chart. According to the analyst, ETH’s next immediate target is $2,700 before moving higher. Fellow crypto analyst CryptoGoos echoed these sentiments. Beyond technical indicators, whale activity has added to the bullish sentiment surrounding ETH. In an X post, crypto analyst Ted noted: Ethereum whale bought 17,855 ETH worth $36,000,000 at an average price of $2,054. Total holding $2,530,000,000 Ethereum. You think this is going down? Think again. Rising Exchange Reserves May Spoil The Party On the bearish side, crypto analyst Ali Martinez pointed out that ETH reserves on exchanges have been steadily rising. Over the past two weeks, more than 610,000 ETH has been transferred to exchanges, which could increase selling pressure. Martinez’s analysis aligns with a recent report that found that despite ETH’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) being at a multi-year low, there could still be further downside in store for the digital currency. Related Reading: Ethereum Exchange Balances Drop To 9-Year Low – Time For A Major Price Move? Indeed, ETH has been marred by significant bearish sentiment due to its relatively weak price performance over the past two years compared to cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin (BTC), Solana (SOL), and XRP. However, extreme bearish sentiment could act as a contrarian signal, setting the stage for a surprise rally. At press time, ETH trades at $2,200, up 6% in the past 24 hours.

According to a recent post on X by crypto analyst Rekt Capital, Bitcoin (BTC) may finally be showing early signs of bullish divergence. If this pattern plays out, BTC could target the $101,000 level as its first milestone before moving higher. Bitcoin Showing Signs Of Bullish Divergence? Analyst Weighs In Since the beginning of February, the flagship cryptocurrency has endured multiple macroeconomic uncertainties, including US President Donald Trump’s proposed trade tariffs, the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) hawkish statements, and the stock market downturn triggered by the release of China’s DeepSeek AI model. Related Reading: Bitcoin Slides To $94,000 After CPI Surprise – Will The Downtrend Continue? Despite these challenges, BTC has remained range-bound between $93,000 and $98,000. However, early signs of a potential bullish divergence are beginning to emerge. Rekt Capital pointed out BTC’s repeated failure to achieve a successful daily close above the $97,700 level, forcing it to find support around $93,000 at the lower end of its trading channel. While BTC continues to consolidate within this tight range, it is displaying a bullish divergence, as the cryptocurrency’s relative strength index (RSI) has formed a higher low on the daily chart. In this context, bullish divergence occurs when the price continues making lower lows while the RSI reverses course and forms a higher low. This momentum shift often signals an impending trend reversal, potentially propelling BTC toward the crucial $100,000 level. However, not all analysts are convinced that BTC is out of the woods just yet. Crypto analyst Merlijn The Trader shared his perspective on BTC’s price action, emphasizing how the top cryptocurrency recently touched the 100-day exponential moving average (EMA) at $93,500. They cautioned: Historically, closing below this level often means a drop to the 200EMA—currently at $86k. But until the daily 100EMA breaks, there’s no need for panic. Stay sharp, the market is at a pivotal point! Will BTC Fill The CME Gap? Meanwhile, crypto market analyst CryptoBullet pointed to a CME gap from November that BTC may need to fill before resuming its upward momentum. The analyst highlighted a double-top formation, which could lead BTC to retrace down to $76,000 to close the gap. Related Reading: Bitcoin Faces Persistent Resistance at $100K, Analyst Eyes Next Step For those unfamiliar, the “CME gap” refers to a price difference on CME’s Bitcoin futures chart that arises when trading pauses for the weekend while BTC continues moving on other exchanges. These gaps often attract price action, as traders anticipate a revisit due to liquidity, technical factors, and market psychology. On a more optimistic note, Bitwise executives maintain that Bitcoin currently offers a “generational opportunity” despite the ongoing global macroeconomic turmoil. At press time, BTC trades at $96,168, up 1.3% in the past 24 hours. Featured image from Unsplash, Charts from X and TradingView.com
