Ether’s Merge-mania fizzles out

And so, the “Merge” has come and gone. Turns out, it was a sell-the-news type event (which we mentioned as a risk in last week’s crypto article).

Ether: All eyes on the “Merge” this week

After years of waiting, the “Merge” is set to happen for the Ethereum network in just a matter of days, potentially around September 15^th. The Merge marks a complete overhaul of how the Ethereum network operates.

Bitcoin tests support around 2017 peak

In recent weeks, that 2017 peak has been tested as a crucial support level for the world’s largest cryptocurrency, with Bitcoin traders now wondering whether this mid-$19,000 region marks the true floor for the selloff that has persisted over the past 10 months.

Bitcoin: A post-mortem after Jackson Hole

Last week, we posed the question: “Can Bitcoin stay above $20k after Jackson Hole?”. Well, now we have our answer: barely.

Can Bitcoin stay above $20k after Jackson Hole?

For much of this year, Bitcoin has moved in lock-step with broader risk sentiment. With US stocks falling in recent sessions, so too has Bitcoin fallen, taking the shine off its summer rally.

“Crypto winter” hits Coinbase

Where cryptos trade long term is ultimately where the widely followed exchange, Coinbase, will journey to.

Can Bitcoin shrug off inflation fears?

Arguably, the single-most important event on this week’s macroeconomic calendar is the release of the July US consumer price index (CPI), due tomorrow (Wednesday, August 10^th).

Can Ethereum’s Merge-mania punch past 100-day SMA?

Cryptos are slipping at the start off August after enjoying a rip-roaring time last month. Ether climbed by a stunning 70.3% in July, posting its largest single-month gain since January 2021, even though prices have been resisted at the 100-day simple moving average of late.

Aggressive Fed to ultimately send Bitcoin down to $10k?

As stated in last week’s report, Bitcoin’s 50-day simple moving average (SMA) did its job as an immediate resistance level. All eyes are honed in on the upcoming US Federal Reserve policy meeting. If on Wednesday, Powell and co. signals to the market to expect more than 100bps hikes during the Sept-Dec period, that could spell another leg down for riskier assets.

Bitcoin bulls eye 50-day SMA resistance

Is this the moment Bitcoin bulls have been waiting for? If prices of the world’s largest cryptocurrency can break above its 50-day SMA, that could be widely interpreted as a bullish signal, with more price gains potentially ahead.

Can Bitcoin hold around $20k?

Bitcoin has dropped back below $20,000 at the time of writing, though HODL-ers are attempting to stop the rot around current levels. The world’s largest cryptocurrency has held relatively steady around this psychologically-important mark since the middle of June amid the ongoing crypto winter.

Can Tether defy naysayers?

Tether, the world’s biggest stablecoin, has put in a more stable shift since May’s meltdown of TerraUSD, a once-heralded competing stablecoin. However, Tether has noticeably deviated below its intended US$1 peg, since that crisis that sent shockwaves across the crypto world a couple of months ago and the debacle is still reverberating across the sector.

Bitcoin due for shallow technical rebound

Bitcoin is holding steady at the time of writing, keeping its head above the psychologically-important $20,000 mark. This $20k region is also significant because the 2017 all-time high was set close to it (to be more precise, the 2017 ATH was at $19,511). Still, Bitcoin prices remain supressed below its 200-week moving average.

28 June 12:01

Bitcoin gains; more volatility likely ahead

Bitcoin is climbing by more than 3% at the time of writing, amid a risk-on session as cryptos rebound alongside other risk assets such as US equity futures. To be certain though, the world’s oldest and largest crypto is still trading around levels not seen since December 2020.
