Thoughts on the market on 12.10.2020: #Bitcoin Nears $11.5K on #US Stimulus Prospects, Seems to Confirm Bullish Trend.
Over the weekend, #Bitcoin confidently held above 11300, all attempts to go below were immediately bought back. So far, it has not been possible to approach 11500 either, now trading in a narrow range of 11350-11400. Total Crypto-Market capitalization is at $358 billion and BTC dominance index 58.5%.
Likely events driving the move was optimism for the prospects for a U.S. stimulus package after the White House boosted its offer to Democrats on a pandemic relief package to the north of $1.8 trillion Friday. Have talked about this before here.
A new round of stimulus would likely benefit BTC in at least three ways:
-Government and central bank spending around the world in response to the coronavirus-induced slowdown, in the eyes of many, will. inevitably result in inflation, and therefore be positive for the cryptocurrency.
-Given the current correlation between equities and BTC, and that some investors treating BTC like it's a tech stock, anything that boosts equities invariably boosts BTC.
-Stimulus paychecks would give individual investors money to invest and some of those investments would likely be BTC.
Buyers stepped in around $10,500 earlier this week after payments company Square announced that it has put some 1% of its assets into bitcoin #Bitcoin is changing hands near $11,320, representing a 2% gain on the day. - Coindesk.
Equity markets continued where they left off on Friday. The dollar index continues to decline, Asian indices are growing, S&P 500 futures are showing a slight increase, gold is growing.
This week there will be reports for the 3rd quarter. Started by JP Morgan, Citigroup (banks), and Johnson & Johnson. It is not so much the result for the third quarter that is important as its compliance with market expectations. There may be a situation when a bad report will move the markets up (since everything is so bad, it means that soon they will give money), or a good report will send the stock down if it turns out to be worse than expected.
Bitcoin is stubbornly not going down. After breaking through 11,200, Bitcoin tried several times to go below 11300 in two days, the straits were immediately redeemed. But it was a thin weekend market, let's see what happens today. The market does not yet really believe in growth - altcoins are growing selectively and very moderately, the fear index is in the neutral zone (52), everyone is waiting for Bitcoin to fall to 11000. That is why the priority option is to try to take 11500, which is very likely in such an external background.
An alternative is movement in the range 11200-11500. If an attempt is unsuccessful to take 11500, a strait is possible to 11000-10900.
If Bitcoin passes above 11500, or altcoins move to growth, market capitalization will approach the important level of 400 billion, which has not been passed since May 2018. Further options are possible, will share more details.
Interestingly, Bitmex will most likely be fine. Vivienne Khu, who recently became CEO of Bitmex, is close to CME and Citybank. That is, Bitmex was simply squeezed out according to the classical scheme: a run over by the regulator, and with the transition to personalities, with a further offer that cannot be refused.
As a result, Arthur and the company will receive no complaints and the opportunity to live for their own pleasure, and some shady new owners will receive Bitmex. By the way, CTO Samuel Reed was released on bail the day after the appointment of a new CEO of Bitmex. It seems that the parties agreed. This is bad for Bitmex owners (they will lose the asset), but good for the crypto market in general. Much better than a closed exchange.
Wishing you a blessed week and remember this is traditional investment advice. Must do your own research. D.Y.O.R. @Decryptedge

For those interested in the current and future US-approach to cryptocurrency - at least under the current administration.
Thoughts on the market on 15.10.2020: The risks of refusing to include #bitcoin in a portfolio today are higher than the risk of missing out on this opportunity,” #Fidelity notes.
Bitcoin fulfilled plan B from yesterday's review. After another unsuccessful attempt to take 11500, the price of the main cryptocurrency jumped to 11300. The correction was bought out, and for the last 8 hours Bitcoin has been trading in a narrow range of 11350-11420. Total Crypto-Market capitalization is at $358 billion and BTC dominance index of 58.7%.
Stock markets continued their decline yesterday, US indices fell 0.58-080%. S&P 500 closed at 3488. Reason - Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin said there are problems with the adoption of the support package. This was already obvious (if there were no problems, the package would have been accepted long ago), but the official statement crashed the markets, despite good statistics on China and strong data on PPI in the US.
Gold is at 1901, the dollar index is up slightly and is moving towards 93.5, S&P 500 futures are looking down. If Trump does not bring a wave of positives to the markets, the downward movement may continue towards 3400-3350 in the S&P 500. But I think that in the next 10-15 days Trump will have his say, and he will try to send the markets to highs, he said earlier.
Bitcoin reaffirmed the lower border of the range at 11300, even on the outside negative it did not go lower. The third attempt to take 11500 failed, but there is no fall, all the corrections are being redeemed. This is very similar to the situation a couple of weeks ago; then, Bitcoin was also steadily holding first above 10200, then above 10500, and did not go lower either on the news about Bitmex or on the external negative. This happens when growth takes place not on emotions, not on FOMO from the crowd, but on a solid foundation. With this form of growth, a return to the original one is extremely rare.
Interestingly, Fidelity Investments announced a possible increase in the capitalization of Bitcoin to 500 billion, and later to 1.3 trillion. They also stated that refusing to include Bitcoin in the portfolio is a much more risky decision than buying Bitcoin. Bitcoin's current capitalization is a drop in the ocean compared to the markets it can influence. However, institutional investors are able to push the capitalization of the first cryptocurrency to $ 500 billion, according to a new study by the financial corporation Fidelity Investments. For a detailed PDF report feel free to ask for it. Quite notable too. In the face of #Ethereum’s recent rocketing transaction fees, its founder and chief scientist, Vitalik Buterin, called on users of the second-largest #blockchain to move over to scaling solutions that are “already here for many classes of applications.” The explosion in decentralized finance (#DeFi) platforms running on Ethereum has caused the cost of transaction fees to skyrocket in recent months (transaction fees have increased from 8 cents at the start of this year to highs of around $14 in September). Meanwhile, there’s pressure from other competing base-layer protocols like Polkadot, Cosmos and Blockstack. - Source:Coindesk.
Today we expect further consolidation at 11300-11500. Out of the range is possible on the external negative or positive. In case of going up, most likely, we will hit 11800, below the next support is at 11000-10900 (but this is only if 11300 cannot resist the external negative).
As always wishing you a blessed day ahead, and remember this is not your traditional investment advice or recommendation.

#Decryptedge Thoughts on the market on 19.10.2020: The Great Financial #Reset: #IMF Managing Director Calls for a 'New Bretton Woods Moment' Do you know what is the #Bretton Woods system?
The weekend passed calmly as #Bitcoin remained in the range of 11300-11500, as stated in our review. Last night nonetheless, there was another attempt to gain a foothold above 11500, it did not lead to success, and now Bitcoin is trading around 11450. Total Crypto-Market capitalization is at $359 billion and #Btc dominance index 59.0%.
Financial markets opened neutral-positive. Asian indices and S&P 500 futures show slight gains. The main idea for the markets will again be the situation around the support package - whether it will be adopted before the elections, or after. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for the issue to be resolved within 48 hours. Both options assume that about a trillion dollars of new money will enter the market, therefore, even if the package is not accepted before the elections, it will not cause some kind of collapse.
But if they do, Trump's promise of highs in the stock market before the election will be fulfilled. Most likely Trump intends to make the stock market one of the instruments of his victory.
Bitcoin has been in the 11300-11500 range for 10 days already. During this time, there were 5 attempts to take 11500, while unsuccessful. At the same time, all movements below 11300 are quickly redeemed. Given the resistance to negativity and the interest of large players, it looks like accumulation before the breakthrough to 12K.
The high dollar index and the weakness of altcoins are alarming, as well as the growth of the greed and fear index, which has moved from the neutral zone to the greed zone (55). These factors indicate that the road to 12K can go through but before a bounce back at 11000-10900.
The bounce back option is possible in the event of a significant negative in the financial markets, or FUD in the crypto market, for example, around OKex, where the story is not over yet. Interesting. CEO OKex previously served as Vice President of Investments at Goldman Sachs. And at the same time when the new CEO of Bitmex worked there. What this means, we will write on this separately.
On Thursday, October 15, the IMF published a speech written by the IMF’s Washington, DC managing director, Kristalina Georgieva called “A New Bretton Woods Moment.” The article has caused sound money and free-market advocates to grow concerned that a big change is coming and possibly a great financial reset. Economists, analysts, and bitcoiners have been discussing the IMF managing director’s speech since it was published on the IMF website on Thursday. A few days later on October 18, macro strategist Raoul Pal said Georgieva’s article alludes to a “huge” change coming to the global financial system. “If you don’t think #CBDC’s (Central Bank Digital Currencies) are coming, you are missing the big and important picture,” Raoul Pal tweeted on Sunday morning. “This is going to be the biggest overhaul of the global financial system since Bretton Woods. This IMF article alludes to a huge change coming, but lacks real clarity outside of allowing much more fiscal stimulus via monetary mechanisms. And tomorrow, the IMF holds a conference on digital currencies and cross-border payment systems…” Source News.bitcoin
Do you know The Bretton Woods system was a huge change in the world’s economic system. The agreement in 1944 established centralized monetary management rules between Australia, Japan, the United States, Canada, and a number of Western European countries.
As always wishing you a blessed week ahead, and must always do your own research. This is not traditional investment of financial advice.
