Which Then Followed: Setting A Record, The BTC / USD Pair Turned Around and Rolled Back Into The $ 63,000-64,000 Zone. WITH REGARD TO BITCOIN, THE SENTIMENT AMONG RETAIL INVESTORS IS “EXTREMELY BULLISH”. This is reported by The Analytical Resource Santiment with Reference To the Off-Chain Btc Indicators. But The Situation Is Not So Clear-Cut Among The “Bitcoin Whales”. On the One Hand, The Total Volume of Coins on Addresses with Balances of 100-10,000 BTC HAS Decreased by Almost 60,000 BTC Over The Past 10 Days.

The SpecialistS of The Kraken Crypto Exchange Agree With this. The Review They Published Notes That November Has Historically Been Volatile, Resulting In The Highest Monthly Returns. Butt If Bitcoin’s Current Rally Stops at Strong Resistance Around $ 70,000, A Correction of Up to 20% CAN BE EXPECTED, Meaning The BTC / USD Pair Could Drop to $ 55,000. The Cryptocurrency Analyst Altsoin Sherpa Calls The Same Figure. “There Is The Possibility Of A Short-Term Hike to $ 55,000,” He Writes. “But i Don’t Care ABOUT THESE MINOR MOVEMENTS. I Continue to Accumulate BTC, And Will Be Rapid. ” Another Well-Known Expert, Willie Woo, Came to the Conclusion That the Zone from $ 50,000 to $ 60,000 is More Than Reliable AS a Support. Bitcoin Has SecureD a Capitalization of $ 1 Trillion and It Is Difficult To Imagine That It Will Fall Below This Zone, He Said, Referring to Data from the Analytical Company Glassnode. Bitcoin IS A HEDGE AGAINST INFLATION, AND THE THE US HAS CURRENTLY SEEN A RISE IN CONSUMER PRICES, Which is a Strong Argument in Favor of the Flagship Cryptocurrency. Despite The Curtailment of An Increase Interest Rates, Signs of A Possible Sharp Devaluation of The Dollar Frighten Investors, Forcing Them to Invest in Alternative Assets in the Stock And Cryptocurrency Markets. As A Result, Both Btc and Stock Indices Update Their Historical Highs Over and Over Again. And Forecasts for Bitcoin Will Be In The Green Zone Until The US Federal Reserve Moves On To A Broader Tightening Of Its Monetary Policy. The Top of Bitcoin’s Current Bull Cycle May Be The Price of $ 96,000. This Conclusion Was Reached by Analysts of The Kraken Crypto Exchange. According To. Their Research, The Current Q4 Has Dynamics Most Similar to the Q4 of 2017 (Correlation 0.88), Which Showed A Yield of + 220%.

A Respected Cryptanalyst Known As Planb SAID THAT BITCOIN COULD RISE BY 700% IN EARLY 2022. “IF You Look At The Signals Along The Chain Right Now, I Dare Say That The Price Will Reach The Top In Almost 6 Monhs, This Will Be The End of Q1 of Next Year. – He Thinks. – I Believe That We Will Have A BTC Rate of $ 100,000 at the end of the year, and then, Perhaps, The Currency Will Continue to Grow Up to Model X (S2FX) And Reach The Level of $ 288,000, and Possibly More. I Would Not Be Surprised IF I Saw The Price Rise To $ 400,000 – 500,000 in Q1 and Q2 of Next Year. ” Unlike Many Optimists, Crypto Strategists Benjamin Cowen, On The CONTRARY, Believees That Bitcoin Will Not Please Is Supporters With Explosive Growth. “We started with about $ 28,000 to $ 29,000 and this Was the Start of 2021,” Writes Cowen. “What Have We Seen So Far? NOT MUCH, RIGHT? Will It Be Able to Show more Significant Results by The End of the Year? Maybe, Butt i’m Not Sure That 2021 Will Be The Year of a Parabolic Rally for Bitcoin. ” While The Distance Between The Low and High Of The Annual Range May Seem Significant, Cowen Noted That Bitcoin Holders Are Unlikely to Be Thrilled With Such Profits: “Look What happened to Bitcoin in 2021: Nothing Special. The Profitability Was About 130%, and I Am Sure That Most Holders Will Not Even Get Up From The Couch for 130%. “” We Have Returned to The Top of the Range, So There May Be Some Euphoria, As It Was From January To March 2021, “The Expert Continues to Reason. – THERE ARE CHANCES OF A SHARP LEAP, BUT THE DATA SHOWS THAT THE CYCLE SHOLD LAST AT LEAST THROUGH 2022. Looking Back to 2021, I Think IT WAS, for the most part, a year of long-term re-accumulation. ” Ethereum, The Main Competitor of Bitcoin, Showed Significantly Higher Profitability, It Grew 6.7 Times In 2021. And The Year Is Not Over Yet. Rahul Rai, The Manager of the Cryptocurrency Fund Blocktower Capital, Believees That The Versatility of the Etherehum Blockchain Will Be The Main Factor That Will Attract Both Developers and Investors. He Is Confident That If Ethereum Manages to Restart The Global Financial System, Its Market Will Be Much Larger Than Tatcoin in the Future. The Crypto Millionaire Predicts That It May Be As Early AS MID-2022. ETH Will Be The First Cryptocurrency in Terms of Capitalization, Which Could Reach Sevel Trillion Dollars. Analysts of the American Investment Bank Jpmorgan Made A Similar Statement in April. In Their Opinion, Bitcoin Is a Consumer Commodity. IT CAN Compete with Precious Metals and Be Seen AS A STORE OF VALUE, BUT IT WILL GIVE WOY TO ETHEREUM IN THE LONG RUN, Which Is The Pillar of the Cryptocurrency Economy. AND AT THE END OF THE REVIEW A WARNING FROM THE BILLIONAIRE, FOUNDER OF DUQUESNE CAPITAL AND ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL AND ON WALL STREET, STANLEY DRUCKENMILLER. The Value of Any Asset Can Collapse At Any Moment, He Warns. According to the Financial, “Cryptocurrencies, Meme Stocks, Art, Wine, Securities … There IS A Bubble in Everything, in Every Asset On The Planet.” And Bubbles, As You Know, Often Burst. “Every event in the world affects a Certain Amount of Security,” Explains Druckenmiller. “I Try to Imagine The World As It Is Today And The World Might Look Like An Any Seismic Changes and What The World Might Look Like In 18 months. AND IF This Is True, Then What Securities Will Be Worth Very Differently Than Now? I Think That Many Investors Live Only In The Present. IT. Might Work In The Short Term, But It’s a Disaster in The Long Term. ” NORDFX ANALYTICAL GROUP Notice: These Materials Are Not Investment Recommendations or Guidelines for Working in Financial Markets and Are Intended for Informational Purposes Only.
