Coming to the top cryptocurrencies in the market, Bitcoin was performing decently today as it was trading green at 2.22 per cent over the last 24 hours with a price of $43,406.29. However, over the course of the last week, the coin showed a slippage of 1.43 per cent. The second-place coin, Ethereum, was also performing well with a surge of 2.72 per cent over the last 24 hours and a price of $3,009.45. The cryptocurrency was trading down at 3.57 per cent over the past 7 days.
Speaking on the performance of Bitcoin, CoinDCX said, “Bitcoin continues to consolidate with multiple retests of the critical sub-$40,000 range, trading between the 100-day simple moving average of US$41,221. Ethereum broke through its first major resistance level, trading at US$2,966.71 at the time of writing. For the past two weeks, the size of liquidations has been trending lower, which is a positive signal, suggesting that long-term holders have not yet sold the recent drawdowns, and have continued to accumulate and remain in the market.”
Touching on the performance of the overall crypto market, Siddharth Menon, COO WazirX said, “It has been a sombre 3 weeks or so for the crypto markets. The overall lull in the markets seem to be persistent based on the trend patterns. The overall crypto market is trending within a descending triangle pattern. An upside breakout seems highly unlikely at this juncture as the dollar index is strengthening day on day basis and since stocks, gold, cryptocurrencies etc. are directly opposed to the dollar, an upside in the dollar index will more often than not result in a fall in the crypto markets.”
