Bitcoin (BTC) Hits New 2023-High at $35,000 Amid BlackRockโs Move https://coingape.com/bitcoin-btc-hits-new-2023-high-at-35000-amid-blackrocks-move/?utm_source=Telegram&utm_medium=Mike
IntoTheBlock: Bitcoin easily crossed the 30 thousand mark.
The current picture on the chain shows that 80% of holders are currently in profit. This level has not been seen since the peak of the bull market in '21.
As Bitcoin approaches the $40K mark, there is not exceptionally much potential resistance on-chain, and the $30K level could act as reliable support in the event of a pullback.
We are also seeing a 27% increase (over 30 days) in the amount of BTC held by short-term holders, which is typical of bullish conditions as short-term traders and newbies purchase Bitcoin on the upswing.

Bitcoin reaches new highs, the US Congress surprises, and China has decided to increase its national debt by $137 billion. Letโs summarize the week:
๐ Cryptocurrencies
1๏ธโฃ BTC grew by 14% over the week, reaching a new high for this year and breaking through important resistance at $32k. This was done using yet another manipulation with ETFs, which was discussed in detail in the video.
Taking into account the reasons for the growth of the last two weeks, the market has entered a stage when either the manipulation will continue, or the time will come to shave longs ๐ง
2๏ธโฃ Changpeng Zhaoโs fortune decreased by 82% based on the revision of Binanceโs valuation, which was affected by the fall of the crypto market and regulatory claims against the exchange.
Zhao will somehow survive with the remaining couple of billion dollars, and at the same time he will have an incentive to organize a new large-scale pump ๐
3๏ธโฃ The US Congress called for checking Binance and Tether for terrorist financing.
Either Congress wants to fire Gensler or close Binance. You donโt even know if itโs good that their conversations donโt get to the point or not ๐
๐ช Finance
1๏ธโฃ China will increase its national debt by $137 billion to stimulate the economy, and Mr. Xi even personally visited the local Central Bank to show his control over the situation.
In fact, this amount will not even come close to solving all the problems in the Chinese economy, but it will definitely last for some time ๐
2๏ธโฃ The US Congress has finally elected a new Speaker of the House of Representatives, Mike Johnson. Now the chance of passing the budget by November 17 has increased to 80%.
True, Mike Johnson is part of the wing of radical Trump supporters, and now it will be extremely difficult for Biden and the Democrats to get as much money as they planned ๐ฝ
3๏ธโฃ Google shares fell by 9% after an unsuccessful quarterly report, while the report itself was good, but forecasts for the next quarter disappointed investors.
Apple's report is next week and there may be surprises there too ๐
