Crypto News: A Weekly Review

As the positive mood among crypto traders strengthened, Bitcoin (BTC) hit a session high of $43,300, its highest level in over three weeks.

 

On Tuesday, many alternative cryptocurrencies (altcoins) gained ground against bitcoin, despite the fact that their previous gains were fading. For instance, ether (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization after bitcoin, topped $3,000 for the first time in two weeks and was rise 3% within the last 24 hours, opposed to a 4% gain in BTC during the same timeframe. In the meantime, Terra’s LUNA token has fallen 3% in the last 24 hours.

 

In other news, global markets rose on Monday, while gold, a traditional safe haven, fell. As investors prepare for high inflation and increasing interest rates, the 10-year Treasury bond yield has continued to rise, matching advances in oil prices. Let’s take a peek at what actually occurred in the cryptoverse.

LUNA to Spike 80%? Here’s What Analysts Think

 

LUNA has been trending to the downside in the past few days, but different indicators show interesting signs. A MACD crossover can give a bullish signal when the MACD rises above the signal line. The opposite crossover would give a bearish signal, which can also be seen below in previous months as an example. LUNA is down 2.04% in the day to $93,31. There is a possibility of a double top that could be triggered if the price breaks out from the support level neckline. A failed double top could shoot up LUNA’s price proving previous signs right.



Why Ethereum Is Outperforming Bitcoin Again

 

The altcoin had begun another rally on Monday that solidified its position above the $3,000 price point. Throughout 2021, ETH had been the top performer of the two. The long-awaited ‘Merge’ is drawing closer and this has put the altcoin ahead of its top rival in the space. ETH has seen a year-over-year return of more than 300% compared to bitcoin’s -200%. This follows the same trend for last year where ETH surged past 300% while bitcoin remained under 200%. Looking at the performance during downtrends, BTC still holds up better compared to ETH.



7% Rally Pushes Cardano (ADA) Closer To $1

 

ADA had hit its all-time high above $3 in 2021. The digital asset is still doing quite well on a year-to-date basis, although not as good as the community would like. The recent uptrend in its price has pushed it closer to $1, but how soon can the cryptocurrency hit it? ADA is still trading below $1 at $0.955, getting ready to test the resistance point. A break above this would put the digital asset right above $1, where it must form significant support or risk losing its footing. The network which is constantly being upgraded to make room for more demand recently completed another upgrade.
