BITCOIN: Correcting but still upwards?

Quick update here…

It is clear that 13000 USD is a very strong resistance level. BITCOIN is now correcting after touching that value in the past few hours.

However, I am still confident of considering 14500 USD as a realistic target as planned 6 days ago in this post .

Also because I think this correction is forming the 4th wave of the Violet 5-waves count, so, still a 5th is missing.

This correction may “enrolled” further buyers who felt that they were late a few hours ago and I believe it should push again the price upwards…If so, a new Year’s High will come and the current resistance at 13000 USD will become our newer support.

The only thing I hope is that the new wave up will come mainly from “Fresh” FIAT and not mainly from the altcoins which are really being devastated by the Crypto King, including STEEM of course.

? Bitcoin Price Eyes Move Above $13K as Dominance Rate Hits 2-Year High

View

Bitcoin’s violation of recent bearish lower highs with a move above $12,061 has opened the doors for a retest of $13,880.


Prices reinforced the bull breakout with a successful defense of the former resistance-turned-support of $12,061 soon before press time.


Bitcoin’s dominance rate has spiked to 27-month highs, backing the uptrend in prices.


A high-volume UTC close below $12,000 would abort the bullish view.

? IRS Allegedly Hopes to Make Tech Giants Release User Crypto Activity

The United States’ Internal Revenue Service (IRS) is allegedly considering requiring tech giants to report on crypto activity by users, according to a presentation reportedly from an IRS presentation and provided by a Twitter user on July 9.


According to the documents shared, the IRS hopes to use Grand Jury subpoenas on firms such as Apple, Google and Microsoft to check taxpayers’ download history for crypto-related applications.


Known as Crypto Tax Girl, Laura Walter, certified public accountant and crypto tax specialist, tweeted the presentation, which was allegedly for agents in the IRS’s Criminal Investigation division.

? Facebook to Senators: Libra Crypto Will Respect Consumer Privacy

Facebook blockchain lead David Marcus told U.S. lawmakers that the social media giant plagued by privacy scandals won’t have access to personal financial information with its new cryptocurrency.


In a letter dated Monday to the Senate Banking Committee responding to pointed questions the lawmakers sent in May, Marcus took a diplomatic tone, acknowledging the panel’s concerns about data privacy and telling them:


“I want to give you my personal assurance that we are committed to taking the time to do this right.”


A similar letter was sent to the House Financial Services Committee, the Hill reported earlier Tuesday.

? Bitcoin’s Mining Difficulty Just Posted Its Biggest Increase Since 2018

Bitcoin mining difficulty – a measure of how hard it is to compete for mining rewards on the world’s first blockchain network – has posted its largest two-week increase in 12 months.


According to BTC.com data, mining difficulty reached 9.06 trillion (T) at block height 584,640 around 9:17 UTC on July 9, surpassing the previous record of 7.93 T by 14.23 percent. This was the strongest growth in any two-week period since August 2018 – a sign that competition among miners is not only intensifying but doing so at an accelerated rate.


The bitcoin network is designed to adjust its mining difficulty every 2,016 blocks (roughly 14 days) based on the participating mining power in each cycle, in order to ensure the block-producing time at the next period stays at about every 10 minutes.

? Facebook Has No Plans for Calibra or Cryptocurrency in India

Facebook Inc has no plans to offer its Calibra digital wallet services in its largest market, India, the social giant said, just as a top government official expressed skepticism about its newly-announced cryptocurrency Libra.

“There are no plans to offer Calibra in India,” a Facebook spokesman said in an email, effectively ruling out the rollout of its Libra cryptocurrency in the country. “As you may know, there are local restrictions within India that made a launch of Calibra not possible at this time.”

India’s central bank, the Reserve Bank of India, has banned banks from dealing in cryptocurrencies but informal networks abound. In an effort to curb them, the government is proposing a law with stringent penalties, including prison sentences of up to 10 years. Subhash Garg, the country’s economic affairs secretary, said in an interview to Bloomberg that India would not be comfortable with a private cryptocurrency.

Here is the current chart :

So most of the altcoins are still in depression mode and for sure it is also the case on the STEEM. Since yesterday, we are trying to break the support around 0.34$ but till now, we are lucky and that line is holding us. For how many times, I really don’t know but let’s at least enjoy that little positive news.

? Bitcoin Price Hits $12.8K as Major Investor Says $100K Quite Easy by 2021

Bitcoin price (BTC) felt more bullish than ever June 9 after another 24 hours of upside propelled markets close to $13,000.

Market visualization courtesy of Coin360

Data from Coin360 painted a rosy picture for cryptocurrency traders, with bitcoin still leading the way in terms of daily gains. 

At press time, BTC/USD was up 11% versus Monday on $12,666. The pair had reached as high as $12,707 before a slight pullback below the $12,700 barrier.

? Safety Without Silos: Why Businesses Will Learn to Love Public Ethereum

In 2015, the Ethereum public mainnet launched, followed by a raft of private blockchain offerings targeting the enterprise. This opened the floodgates on companies prioritizing collaboration, funding long-overdue digitization efforts, and extending business processes across corporate borders.


Today, a new epoch of system integration is underway. However, efforts to make blockchain technology enterprise-friendly split the community into two camps: public networks versus private networks. The dichotomy was wrong-headed from the start, making it easy to believe that public blockchain networks shouldn’t be used in confidential business operations and that private networks were safe and secure.


The first belief is wrong, and the second is dangerous.

? NYAG: Bitfinex, Tether Served New York Residents Longer Than They Claim

The New York Attorney General’s Office (NYAG) has submitted new evidence in its aim to prove that crypto exchange Bitfinex and Tether had served New York customers longer than they claimed.


As part of the NYAG’s ongoing investigation into Bitfinex and Tether, the NYAG filed a Memorandum of Law in Opposition, an affirmation, as well as a total of 28 pieces of exhibits on July 8, with the New York Supreme Court.


The NYAG said in the new documents:
“Even a cursory examination of the facts gathered to date in the OAG’ s investigation shows that Respondents have extensive and consistent contacts to New York concerning the matters under investigation.”

? US SEC and FINRA Issue Statement on Crypto Custody Issues

SThe United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) outlined regulatory compliance issues for cryptocurrency custodians in an announcement on July 8.


According to the joint statement, the organizations have yet to discover a set of circumstances in which a crypto custodian could comply with the SEC’s Customer Protection Rule, which is described as follows:


“Put simply, the Customer Protection Rule requires broker-dealers to safeguard customer assets and to keep customer assets separate from the firm’s assets, thus increasing the likelihood that customers’ securities and cash can be returned to them in the event of the broker-dealer’s failure.”

? Lawmakers Push for New Bitcoin Rules

The Internal Revenue Service is expected to update its 2014 guidance on cryptocurrencies in coming weeks, following an April request from a bipartisan group of 20 lawmakers. It is part of a broader push to boost the nascent cryptocurrency industry. Congress is considering at least three bills that would resolve some of the murky legal issues surrounding digital money.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

STEEMUSD.jpg

Here is the current chart :

STEEMUSD.jpg

The market is currently trying to break the support line at 0.34$… It is quiet sad because when BTC is doing nice UP, STEEM is dropping and when BTC is doing a correction, STEEM is droping also… To resume it, we are not able anymore to add value to our blockchain….


I start to be really worry for our little coin because if all of that continue, yeah we will finish to be outside of the Top100, we will have less volume, less investors and all that, whatever the improvements that we will have…

BITCOIN: iHS triggered?

Just a couple of days ago I was writing a post about an interesting pattern in formation. It was an Inverted Head and Shoulder pattern and I told it has the potential to allow a continuation trend upwards with a target of 14500 USD.

The following was the pattern I was talking about:

And what we can see right now is that after breaking the neckline at 11760 USD the volume is increasing consistently:



Those two higher bars at the volume of the 4 Hour chart may indicate an acceleration of the price action and so it is what is exactly occurring. A good example of one of the most succeed patterns in TA, in this case it is acting as a continuation pattern on a Bullish Scenario.

The target of this pattern points right now towards a new High of the year around 14500 USD, will see how close BITCOIN will be from that level in some hours from now.

As usual, pay attention to the chart and anticipate the move in order to get the most from it.

Is Bitcoin Still in a Bear Market? Analysis and Answering Questions

Bitcoin jumped today from $11,350 to our known resistance at $12,000.

Screen Shot 2019-07-08 at 12.11.07 PM.png

Zooming out on the weekly chart, we can see price is trading above the last 3 weekly candle’s close. Bitcoin has been defiant of the bearish reversal candle we saw 2 weeks ago.

Screen Shot 2019-07-08 at 12.12.31 PM.png

As most of you know, I believe the bottom is in and bitcoin is now in a bull market. Could I be proven wrong? Of course…and I’ll be the first to admit it if I am.

In today’s video we discuss the case for the bear market continuing and lay out why I think it’s over. I also answer your questions on how I learned to trade, discuss where price my be heading next and so much more. Hope you find it helpful.

Ripple Trying To Make Money Moves

Ripple’s mission is to provide bank solutions allowing for faster payment settlement and lower foreign exchange fees.  So they created the digital currency / ledger XRP.

XRP has gotten a bad rap over the years by the hardcore crypto maniacs out there because they claim XRP isn’t decentralized because of the Big Banks’ compliance requirements and members on their board who once held government position.  Who cares whether they are decentralized or centralized, it’s about are they adding value to the Crypto space and recently, they are making money moves.

For instance, Xpring, the Ripple incubator, and investment arm revealed in a blog post on July 2, 2019, that it had invested $500 million in over 20 startups that are using the XRP protocol to grow the Ripple community.

In the same vein, Ripple on June 17, 2019, announced it has entered a strategic partnership with MoneyGram, one of the largest money transfer companies in the world.

It’s also worthy to note that the Federal Bank of India revealed in March 2019 that it has collaborated with Ripple in a bid to enable financial institutions to send cross border payments more securely.

The cryptocurrency community, on the other hand, are banking on developments of this nature to push the price of XRP above its all-time high of $3.15.

Many crypto analysts have predicted that the virtual asset may take charge and trade as high as $7 in the coming months.

Source

If investments into worthwhile projects within the XRP ecosystem continue, investors in XRP/Ripple will be handsomely rewarded in the long term.  The chart suggests the next levels to monitor are the daily demand zones near $0.25 and the daily supply at $82.

This post is my personal opinion. I’m not a financial advisor, this isn’t financial advise. Do your own research before making investment decisions.

Dogecoin…Now Listed On Binance

Dogecoin is a cryptocurrency which got its from the “Doge” Internet meme that features Shiba Inu dog as its logo. What started out a joke, it now has it’s own online community and is ranked the top 30 coins according to CoinMarketCap.

Jackson Palmer is an Australian entrepreneur created Dogecoin as a joke.  However, what started out as a joke, grew through social media, has an active community and has now been listed on Binance.

After years of waiting, Dogecoin (DOGE), the popular meme-based cryptocurrency, has finally been added to the world’s largest crypto exchange, Binance.

The reasoning behind the sudden listing of one of the oldest cryptocurrencies is seemingly fairly straightforward: people simply love Dogecoin.

“This one is an exception [to Binance’s strict listing policies], as there isn’t much new tech development (I guess it was never about the tech for this one),” explained Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao. “The users/community is large, and a famous ‘ex-CEO’ (cough  Elon Musk) helps!”

Source

So where is the price of Dogecoin headed next, after the major weekly resistance/support line at $0.002 has held earlier this year and with price respecting the weekly up trendline, the chart suggest price is headed to the a short term target at $0.007.

This post is my personal opinion. I’m not a financial advisor, this isn’t financial advise. Do your own research before making investment decisions.
