Bitcoin’s failure to rebound off strong support levels increases the risk of a deeper correction that could also negatively impact altcoins. After failing to sustain above the resistance of its narrow range, Bitcoin (BTC) fell near a key support on July 18. The consolidation of the past few days seems to be an accumulation phase, according to Glassnode’s Bitcoin Accumulation Trend Score. A similar score was seen during the accumulation phases between November to December and again from March to April. According to CoinShares data, institutional investors continue to plow…

Bitcoin and several altcoins are taking a breather after the sharp rally of the past two days, but the general trend remains bullish. Ripple Labs’ victory in the case against the United States Securities and Exchange Commission gives a significant boost to the crypto industry. In addition to benefitting Ripple and XRP (XRP), analysts believe that the ruling will weaken the regulator’s case against Binance and Coinbase. In another positive event for the crypto space, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) completed a bearish head-and-shoulders pattern on July 12 and followed…

Bitcoin continues to face strong resistance at $31,000, but supportive macroeconomic factors could tilt the advantage in favor of the bulls. Bitcoin bulls are again having a go at the overhead resistance of $31,000. The bullish sentiment may get a boost from the United States inflation report, which showed signs of slowing inflation.

However, a shallow pullback should not be considered a trend change because, many times, the bulls take a step back to regroup and launch another attack at the resistance. If the barrier is overcome, the positive momentum picks up. Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao…

Bullish crypto traders are struggling to clear the overhead barrier in Bitcoin and select altcoins, indicating that bears have not given up yet. Bitcoin (BTC) continues to trade near the $31,000 level, making it an important resistance to watch out for in the short term. Some analysts believe the current consolidation could result in an upside breakout in Bitcoin. The institutional investors also seem to be positive about the prospects of a further rally in Bitcoin. CoinShares’ head of research James Butterfill said in a recent report that 98% of…

The rejection of ETF applications by the SEC caused a knee-jerk reaction but the shallow fall in Bitcoin and several altcoins suggests that lower levels are attracting buyers. Bitcoin (BTC) witnessed a volatile trading session on the last day of the quarter. The bulls were trying to maintain Bitcoin’s price above $31,000 but they received a jolt on a Wall Street Journal report which stated that the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) had returned applications for the Bitcoin spot-price exchange-traded fund (ETF).  Although there was a knee-jerk reaction…
