A strong outlier in the current market situation, Monero (XMR) moves against the broader downturn that plagues the market. According to CoinGecko, Monero gained nearly 13% since last week, putting the coin under the spotlight as one of the strongest gainers within the bear market.  Related Reading: RENDER Flashes Red With 18% Short-Term Loss – Details Monero’s simplicity lends itself to its focus on privacy and reliability, providing great value for both investors and users of the platform. This led to Monero’s semi-autonomous price movement which might continue despite the market’s bearish nature.  Monero Utilization Jumps On CoinCards CoinCards, a gift card vendor, recently released some statistics about cryptocurrency use on its platform. According to the platform, Monero has the monopoly beating Bitcoin in utilization. This huge utilization is due to Monero’s simplicity and utility, garnering the attention of analysts on X.  Although the market is overwhelmingly bearish, analysts show bullishness with predictions about XMR’s future performance.  “While everything else looks like pre-death, the privacy coin is making higher lows and higher highs. Complete decoupling from the market,” said Crypto Van Der Linde, a cryptanalyst on the X platform.  Although Binance and Kraken have delisted XMR for their customers, the token still has a large user base that is mostly concerned with their privacy. With more individuals considering privacy to be a core issue, we might see cryptocurrency users using XMR despite its downsides of slow transaction times.  Rally Turns Sluggish As of writing, Monero is well between the $170-$174 trading range giving the bulls a great position for more upside potential. However, the market’s bearishness has bled through to XMR’s market, slowing down gains in the long term.  XMR’s less-than-significant correlation with Bitcoin makes the coin more attractive to investors scouring the market for profit-generating cryptocurrencies within the bearish market. The relative strength index (RSI) shows that although the coin has bullish momentum, XMR bulls are nearing exhaustion in the short term.  Related Reading: SUI Crashes 23% As September Unleashes Market Panic—Is A Comeback Possible? The coin’s trading range is pretty weak as the bears are gathering momentum to cancel out short-term gains. Long-term, however, it seems that XMR bulls will rest and gather momentum before another attempt to regain lost ground.  As it currently stands, XMR eyes a breakthrough on $190 in the short term, providing a support level for the bulls to prepare for a strong upward movement. After this movement, investors and traders can target $200 in the long term.  However, if XMR succumbs to the bearish momentum within the market, the coin might retrace back to $164 with more possible losses in the short term.

#bitcoin #bitcoin price #btc #bitcoin news #btcusd #bitcoin bearish #bitcoin sell signal #bitcoin td sequential

An analyst has explained how Bitcoin could witness a drop to the $40,600 level based on a pattern forming in its 2-month price chart. Bitcoin Has Seen A TD Sequential Sell Signal On Its 2-Month Price In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed about a Tom Demark (TD) Sequential signal that has formed in the 2-month price of Bitcoin. The TD Sequential is an indicator in technical analysis (TA) that’s generally used for spotting positions of probable reversal in any asset’s price. This indicator involves two phases: setup and countdown. In the first of these setups, candles of the same color (that is, whether red or green) are counted up to nine. After these nine candles are in, the asset could be assumed to have reached a point of turnaround. Related Reading: Bitcoin Investors Beware: MVRV Has Given Bear Market Signal Naturally, if the candles that led to the setup’s completion were green, then the TD Sequential would give a sell signal. Similarly, red candles could suggest a bottom may be here. Once the setup is done with, the second phase of the indicator, the countdown, begins. The countdown works much like the setup, with the main difference being that candles here are counted up to thirteen, instead of nine. Following these thirteen candles, the asset may be considered to have reached another potential top or bottom. Bitcoin has completed a TD Sequential phase of the former type recently. Here is the 2-month price chart of the cryptocurrency shared by the analyst, which shows this signal: As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin 2-month price has recently finished a TD Sequential setup with nine green candles, implying that the cryptocurrency may have encountered some kind of top. Since the signal has appeared, BTC has been on the way down, with its price currently under the $57,000 level. Thus, it’s possible that this pattern’s bearish effect may already be taking hold. As for how deep this drawdown can take Bitcoin, Martinez has pointed out the support level at $51,000. This level corresponds to the 0.236 Fibonacci Retracement level from the recent BTC top. Related Reading: Bitcoin, XRP See Declining Whale Activity: What It Means Fibonacci Retracement levels are based on the Fibonacci series, where dividing each number (beyond 5) in the series by the next numbers produces ratios that are consistent throughout the series. It’s possible that Bitcoin may find support at the next such important ratio, but the analyst notes that if the $51,000 support gets breached, the cryptocurrency could end up going all the way down to $40,600, which corresponds to the 0.382 Fibonacci Retracement level. In the scenario that BTC does end up revisiting this level, its price would have gone through a drawdown of more than 28% from the current level. It now remains to be seen how the asset’s trajectory plays out from here. BTC Price Bitcoin has furthered its latest decline during the past day as its price has now slipped to $56,600.

As Bitcoin gains traction within the Republican Party, notably championed by former President Donald Trump, lawmakers are increasingly positioning the cryptocurrency as a cornerstone for US economic growth.  US Senator Cynthia Lummis is at the forefront of this movement, advocating for the Bitcoin Act, which aims to establish a strategic Bitcoin reserve for the United States. A Bold Solution For Fiscal Crisis In a recent interview with Bankless, Lummis articulated her vision for the Bitcoin Act, highlighting its potential to address the nation’s staggering $35 trillion debt, which she argues has no viable solutions under current fiscal policies. Lummis believes that creating a Bitcoin reserve is the only rational approach to managing this debt crisis. Related Reading: Bitcoin Analyst Points To $55,000 As Potential Bottom – US Liquidity The Key The proposed mechanism for the Bitcoin reserve involves the US government repurposing gold certificates, which are currently valued at their historical rates from 1917, to their present market value of approximately $2,400.  The senator plans to use the differential to purchase BTC over a five-year period, with a target of acquiring over one million BTC—roughly 5% of the total supply—storing them securely in cold storage for twenty years. Lummis asserts that this strategy could effectively cut in half the national debt by 2045. Lummis emphasized that this approach further allows the government to invest in Bitcoin without impacting the US balance sheet or accruing additional debt. She views Bitcoin as a solution she has sought throughout her career, arguing that its characteristics as a non-government-issued asset make it a more reliable backing for fiat currencies compared to traditional stocks or other fiat currencies. Global ‘Arms Race’ For Bitcoin?  Addressing concerns about the devaluation of the US dollar, particularly during the COVID-19 pandemic when unprecedented amounts of US dollars were printed, Lummis highlighted BTC’s scarcity as a key differentiator. She described it as a true diversifier that does not suffer from the same inflationary pressures as fiat currencies. In a thought-provoking statement, Lummis suggested that the future may see an “arms race” not for weapon dominance, but for Bitcoin as a secure store of value. She noted that countries like the US, China, and Russia are increasingly competing to establish themselves as leaders in crypto. Following her remarks at the 2024 Bitcoin Conference, there has been a notable increase in constituent letters urging support for the Bitcoin Act. The legislation has now been referred to the Senate Committee on Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs for further consideration. Related Reading: Is Chainlink (LINK) Sliding To $9? On-Chain Metrics Expose Weak Network Activity This push for a Bitcoin reserve aligns with Trump’s vision to position the United States as the “crypto capital of the planet.” The former president has stressed the importance of maintaining robust Bitcoin and cryptocurrency reserves, warning that neglecting this opportunity could allow nations like China to gain an upper hand in the global financial landscape.  Trump has reiterated Bitcoin’s potential as a modern currency, citing endorsements from individuals within his circle and urging the government to recognize its benefits. At the time of writing, the largest cryptocurrency on the market trades at $58,000.  Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com

Crypto analyst Dark Defender has predicted that the XRP price could rise to $8 and explained what could spark such a parabolic rally for the crypto. As part of his bullish prediction, the crypto analyst also revealed what could lead to XRP rising to $18.  XRP Price To Rise To $8 If Repeat Of 2017 Bull Run Occurs Dark Defender predicted in an X (formerly Twitter) post that XRP would rise to $8 if a repeat of the 2017 bull run were to occur. Back then, XRP recorded a price rally of 61,000% in 280 days to its current all-time high (ATH) of $3.84. Related Reading: Major Dogecoin Indicator Flashes Bullish, Is It Time To Buy? The crypto analyst seemed confident about this 2017 price surge happening again, stating that the XRP community is having a “deja vu of 2017 by standing weeks in front of the XRP bull run.” Dark Defender added that if a similar run is in place, $18.22, the Fibonacci level of 361.80%, is expected to be the upper target level of XRP’s Wave 3 impulsive move. From the accompanying chart, this projected move to $8 and possibly $18 is expected to occur sometime between October and early 2025.  The crypto analyst also provided an analysis of XRP’s current price action and highlighted critical support levels XRP needs to hold above if it is to rise to this unprecedented height. Firstly, he noted that the crypto has been consolidating between $0.3917 and $0.6649. Meanwhile, in the weekly time frame, XRP’s relative strength index (RSI) dips have formed a parallel with price dips. At the same time, the weekly RSI Golden Cross is said to be in place.   Dark Defender again highlighted the importance of the $0.6649 price level. He claimed that this level, above the weekly Ichimoku clouds, is a “crucial marker” that must be in place before XRP makes its parabolic run. The analyst also noted that $0.5286 and $0.4623 are critical support levels, which XRP holders should keep an eye on.  XRP Could Rally By 5,000% And Rise To $27 Crypto analyst Egrag Crypto has also offered a more bullish price prediction for XRP, suggesting that the crypto could enjoy a 5,000% price gain and rise to $27. As a more conservative price prediction, he remarked that XRP could enjoy a 2,400% price gain and climb to $17. He made these predictions based on the Bullish Hammer Candle Stick formations, which he noted have historically produced massive price gains for XRP. Related Reading: Analysts Predict Bitcoin Price Could Crash To $40,000, But There’s Good News This isn’t the first time Egrag has predicted that XRP could rise to as high as $27 in this bull run. In November last year, he mentioned that this price level was a “plausible” target, especially if the crypto repeats its 2017 bull rally.   At the time of writing, XRP is trading at around $0.55, down over 2% in the last 24 hours, according to data from CoinMarketCap.  Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from Tradingview.com

Over the past seven months, the price of Bitcoin has moved in a range between $73,777 and $49,000, significantly depressing sentiment across the market. In a new analysis published via X, Will Clemente III, co-founder of Reflexivity Research, addresses the prevailing sentiment of impatience and uncertainty among investors, sharing why he still remains bullish. Clemente’s bullish sentiment draws from a long-term perspective over the next decade. Drawing upon his expertise in portfolio construction and asset allocation, Clemente emphasized the importance of identifying major economic trends likely to unfold over the next decade. “Been thinking a lot about portfolio construction lately and position sizing. I keep coming back to there’s nothing I’d rather go into a coma for 10 years and hold than Bitcoin,” Clemente stated, emphasizing his confidence in Bitcoin as the superior long-term asset. His analysis is grounded in the anticipation of certain macroeconomic trends. Clemente suggests that investors should consider what the biggest trends are likely to be over the next decade and adjust their portfolio accordingly. This involves either significantly increasing investment in the highest confidence trend or spreading investments across several promising trends based on their potential impact. Related Reading: Critical Bitcoin Indicator: Analyst Foresees Major 75% Correction Ahead He personally favors focusing on the most probable trend, which he identifies as the ongoing growth of the US deficit and the subsequent need for the government to debase the currency to service this debt. This scenario, according to Clemente, offers a more predictable outcome than other technological trends like AI or space exploration. “Compared to other technological trends, the debasement one is pure math. In addition, the way to bet on other technological trends, for example AI or space, isn’t as clear as debasement, given there’s not a way to position for it as clear as Bitcoin,” Clemente writes. How High Can Bitcoin Go In 10 Years? Clemente’s bullish stance on Bitcoin is reinforced by his analysis of potential capital inflows from sovereign wealth and pension funds. He estimates that if these entities were to allocate just 1% of their capital to Bitcoin, it would result in approximately $460 billion of new investments into BTC, potentially doubling its market cap and driving prices to between $150,000 and $200,000 per Bitcoin. He further speculates on the impact of an increased allocation, suggesting that if concerns over the deficit intensify, these institutions might allocate as much as 3%, translating into $1.4 trillion entering Bitcoin. And the upside potential is even larger. “What happens if it eats into the $10t-$15t of gold’s monetary premium? How about the combined monetary premium in treasuries/equities/real estate that’s currently parked into these assets as SoV to protect against currency debasement?” Clemente pondered. Related Reading: Will Bitcoin Repeat History? Analyst Sees This 2019 Pattern In Current Market Concluding his analysis, Clemente reasoned that a $1 million price per Bitcoin by 2034 is not out of the realm of possibility when factoring in the reduced purchasing power of the dollar. “Also would like to sprinkle on top that this is not factoring in dollars being worth significantly less in the future due to debasement, so $1mm BTC in 2034 is not as crazy as $1mm BTC in 2024,” the analyst remarked. However, Clemente also acknowledged, “I do think Bitcoin’s days of 100%+ CAGR are gone, but that’s not to say it won’t outperform equity indices by a lot — and on a confidence-adjusted basis, I don’t see anything as compelling in the marketplace today.” At press time, BTC traded at $56,481.
