    Bitcoin (BTC) Forms Death Cross Amid Market Drop

    As of early Monday, over $370 billion had been erased from the market capitalization of all crypto assets over 24 hours, with Bitcoin experiencing its greatest single-day drop in three years. Much of the sell-off was linked to a broader market rout, with equities falling around the world.A death cross occurs when a short-term moving average crosses below a long-term moving average, typically signaling potential bearish momentum.In Bitcoin’s case, this pattern has emerged on the four-hour chart as the 50-hour moving average has crossed below the 200-hour moving average, an indication that many market analysts view as a bearish signal.At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up 9% in the last 24 hours to $54,851, according to CoinMarketCap data.On-chain analytics firm IntoTheBlock highlighted key levels to watch as the Bitcoin price shows signs of recovery.According to IntoTheBlock, on the upside, resistance is fairly distributed, but two price levels with notable historic volume stand out, which are $55,500 and $60,500.On the other hand, if declines continue, a significant demand level is concentrated below $50,000 with strong support anticipated around $47,500.Meanwhile, Bitcoin wallets holding between 1,000 and 10,000 BTC showed confidence during the recent dip, consistently increasing their holdings as prices fell. On the other hand, wallets with less than 1 BTC showed weak hands, with the most substantial decrease in holdings during yesterday’s market downturn.This article was originally published on U.Today More

    Satoshi Nakamoto’s Original Bitcoin Goal Shared by CryptoQuant CEO

    While both groups of investors buy and hold Bitcoin, those who consider it a technology stock panic sell it during a market turmoil and buy physical gold. “We don’t need them,” Ki Young Ju said. He gave the vision of Satoshi Nakamoto, the Bitcoin creator, to the community as an argument: “BTC should rise in tough times — that’s Satoshi’s original intent.”According to Martinez, BTC is now forming a Rising Wedge pattern, which often reverses and ends in an asset’s decline (in the case of a Falling Wedge, the price would reverse to a surge). Therefore, the analyst warns of a potential breakdown toward the $51,000 level even if Bitcoin could climb to the $56,000 or $57,000 level from the current trading point at $55,172.In an earlier published tweet, Martinez wrote that, amazingly, despite institutional investment in Bitcoin reaching a definite all-time high, market sentiment remains in the zone of “extreme fear.”BTC has begun to recover after the 18% plunge experienced at the start of the week. The flagship crypto crashed from roughly $60,000 and gone deep down below the $50,000 level on Monday. By now, Bitcoin has managed to recover approximately 11% of the lost value and is changing hands at $55,253. Overall, the losses suffered by Bitcoin between Friday and Monday totaled almost 24% as BTC collapsed from the $65,300 zone.This article was originally published on U.Today More
