- Bitcoin’s creator is still unknown
- SEC did not approve BTC ETF’s
Craig Wright, an Australian scientist, was not the one who created Bitcoin. Who is Satoshi Nakamoto is still unknown. This conclusion was driven by the US Copyright Bureau: Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper and did not write its first core code.
Wright issued his claim a few days ago, and could suffer a $2,500 penalty, this was not actually the case.
Meanwhile, the SEC did not approve Bitcoin ETF’s designed by VanEck and SolidX. The deadline has been postponed once again, now for 90 days, till August 19. The commission might put it off for another 90 days, though, thus making its final decision on October 18.
The SEC is unsure of the possible security and manipulation issues that may damage investors’ portfolios. Whenever a positive decision is taken, the crypto market might be heavily boosted, fundamentally.
On W1, the BTC stopped rising after reaching 38.20% Fibo, or $8,525. This might well be just a short term correction, and the price could soon reach the 50% target, or $10,170. Indeed, a rise in the midterm is quite probable, with the Stochastic having formed a golden cross. On the other hand, the MACD lines are headed down, which means the market is still uncertain and not ready to make a new bullish move.
