Bitcoin Preisvorhersage: Was kommt als nächstes?

Analyst Vince Prince hat in seiner Bitcoin-Preisvorhersage festgestellt, dass sich die Kryptowährung in einer absteigenden Kanalformation befindet. Bitcoin ist innerhalb der absteigenden Kanalformation hin und her geprallt und hat sowohl die Widerstands- als auch die Unterstützungsebene getestet.

Laut dem Analysten steht Bitcoin auch einem starken Widerstand bei $41.200 gegenüber, da er es bisher nicht geschafft hat, dieses Niveau zu überschreiten. Der Analyst hat auch einen Widerstandscluster am Schnittpunkt der horizontalen Widerstandslinie – bei $41.200 – und der oberen Begrenzung der absteigenden Kanalformation identifiziert. Der Analyst erwartet, dass Bitcoin versuchen wird, aus der Formation auszubrechen, aber es wird höchstwahrscheinlich nicht gelingen, den Widerstandscluster zu durchbrechen.

Ein starker Pullback kann von der Kryptowährung erwartet werden, wenn es nicht gelingt, am Widerstandslevel auszubrechen. Der Pullback wird dazu führen, dass Bitcoin Profit die untere Grenze der absteigenden Kanalformation bei etwa $38.000 berührt. Bitcoin wird auf diesem Niveau starke Unterstützung finden, da dort auch eine horizontale Unterstützungslinie bei $38.000 liegt.

Laut Vince Prince können sich an diesem Punkt zwei Szenarien entfalten; im ersten Szenario wird Bitcoin aus der Formation nach unten ausbrechen und eine Wellenzählung abschließen. Bitcoin wird in die C-Wellenerweiterung eintreten und wahrscheinlich bis auf $36.000 fallen. Im zweiten Szenario, wenn der bullische Druck anhält, wird Bitcoin seinen Aufwärtstrend wieder aufnehmen und versuchen, das Widerstandsniveau erneut zu testen.

Der Analyst Pawel Hodurek hat in seiner Bitcoin Preisvorhersage weiteres bullisches Momentum von Bitcoin erwartet. Laut dem Analysten ist Bitcoin aus der aufsteigenden Kanalformation ausgebrochen und es wurde erwartet, dass es weiter nach unten geht. Die jüngsten Preisaktionen zeigen jedoch, dass Bitcoin wieder in den Kanal eingetreten ist, was auf einen erhöhten zinsbullischen Druck auf die Kryptowährung hindeutet. Der Analyst erwartet auch, dass das bärische Momentum des RSI nachlässt, da er kurz davor ist, ein Widerstandsniveau zu durchbrechen. Der MACD befindet sich bei einem zinsbullischen Kreuz.

Alan Masters identifizierte auch eine aufsteigende Kanalformation in seiner Bitcoin-Preisvorhersage. Der Kanal ist extrem steil, und der Analyst erwartet, dass die Kryptowährung ihren Anstieg fortsetzt. Masters hat festgestellt, dass der Markt starke Anzeichen für eine weitere bullische Divergenz liefert. Der Analyst erwartet einen Ausbruch in Richtung $50.000 in Kürze.

Un autre procès intenté par l’un de ses principaux investisseurs

La société Ripple, basée à San-Francisco, pourrait encore avoir d’autres problèmes à régler, car l’un de ses principaux investisseurs impliqués dans le financement de la série C de la société a déposé une plainte suite aux allégations de la SEC américaine.

Ripple est touché de l’intérieur

Selon Bloomberg, mardi (5 janvier 2021), Tetragon Financial Group, une société d’investissement basée au Royaume-Uni, a déposé une plainte contre Ripple lundi devant la Chancery Court du Delaware. Une partie de la poursuite vise à “faire valoir son droit contractuel Crypto Trader d’exiger de Ripple le rachat” des actions privilégiées de série C.

Tetragon était le principal investisseur dans le financement de la série C de Ripple, d’un montant de 200 millions de dollars, en décembre 2019. Les fonds collectés ont été canalisés vers la mise à jour du grand livre du XRP et vers l’extension de l’utilité du jeton XRP.

La société d’investissement souhaite également que le tribunal gèle les liquidités ou les actifs en espèces de Ripple jusqu’à ce que la société effectue le paiement. En outre, Tetragon demande une ordonnance de restriction, ainsi qu’un procès accéléré et une injonction préliminaire.

Le procès de Tetragon a eu lieu après que la SEC américaine ait déclaré, en décembre 2020, que Ripple avait procédé à des offres de titres non autorisées pour une valeur de plus d’un milliard de dollars. Suite aux allégations de la SEC, les conséquences ont été dévastatrices pour Ripple.

En réponse à cette question, Ripple a publié une réponse officielle à l’allégation de Tetragon, qui se lit comme suit

Dans l’accord d’investissement de série C de Ripple, il y a une disposition selon laquelle si le XRP est considéré comme un titre sur une base prospective, alors Tetragon a la possibilité de demander à Ripple de racheter ses actions. Étant donné qu’il n’y a pas eu de décision en ce sens, cette action en justice n’est pas fondée. Nous sommes déçus que Tetragon cherche à profiter injustement du manque de clarté réglementaire ici aux États-Unis. Les tribunaux apporteront cette clarté et nous sommes très confiants dans notre position.

Outre le fait que la valeur du jeton XRP a fait un plongeon, différentes plateformes de cryptage ont également retiré ou prévu de retirer ou de suspendre le XRP pour les opérateurs américains. Comme CryptoPotato l’a récemment signalé, Grayscale Investments a retiré le jeton de son fonds public diversifié de crypto, a liquidé ses avoirs en XRP et a utilisé les fonds pour acheter d’autres actifs de crypto dans le fonds.

Les allégations de la SEC ont également touché la principale bourse de cryptocourrier Coinbase, après que l’un de ses utilisateurs ait poursuivi la société pour avoir reçu des commissions provenant de la vente illégale de XRP sur sa plateforme.

Déterminé à sortir gagnant

Pendant ce temps, Ripple est déterminé à gagner la bataille juridique, déclarant qu’il répondrait aux revendications de la SEC et prouverait qu’elles sont fausses. La date initiale de l’instruction de l’affaire SEC contre Ripple est fixée à février 2021.

Malgré les problèmes entourant Ripple et XRP, il semble que la société ait des partisans prêts à mettre leur poids dans la balance. Une pétition d’un groupe de partisans de Ripple a fait valoir que les allégations de la SEC, qui étaient “frivoles”, avaient porté préjudice à plusieurs Américains ordinaires détenant du XRP. La pétition demandait en outre à la Maison Blanche de déclarer que le XRP était une monnaie.

Dan Schulman, l’amministratore delegato di PayPal, ha recentemente parlato del suo grande quadro per le valute digitali nel 2021. Ha evidenziato il suo piano per consentire alle aziende che potrebbero temere la volatilità di Bitcoin di adottare BTC, promettendo una conversione immediata all’importo promesso in USD. Ha detto che non ci dovrebbe essere alcuna ragione per cui un’azienda non accetti i cryptos.

Inoltre, PayPal intende lanciare i suoi servizi di crittografia globale all’inizio del 2021. Il fatto che l’azienda abbia 28 milioni di aziende che utilizzano i suoi servizi significa che l’impatto potrebbe essere enorme. Inoltre, permette agli utenti statunitensi di acquistare, tenere e vendere bitcoin, etere, bitcoin cash e Litecoin.

Schulman ha detto che c’è stato un enorme aumento dei pagamenti digitali in tutte le forme; molti consumatori vogliono utilizzare i pagamenti senza contanti e, di conseguenza, c’è un’esplosione dei pagamenti digitali. Le valute crittografiche sono state una classe di beni che si scambiano, e ora è possibile utilizzarle come fonte di finanziamento all’inizio di quest’anno, aggiungendo una migliore utilità per i possessori di crittografia.

Dan Shulman ha affermato che è solo una questione di tempo prima che la sua azienda inizi a sostenere i CBDC non appena saranno disponibili. Paypal aggiungerà anche più funzionalità alla sua piattaforma per muoversi con la tecnologia moderna, migliorando l’utilità dei pagamenti. Sistemi migliori significheranno transazioni più veloci e meno costose, pur includendo più persone nel sistema finanziario. C’è un’enorme domanda per comprare, tenere e vendere i cryptos.

L’azienda è entusiasta di permettere alle persone di prendere i crypto engine, di trasformarli efficacemente in una valuta e di utilizzarli senza paura della volatilità. Intende anche stabilizzare i sistemi di crittografia e utilizzare più tecnologia digitale per migliorare i pagamenti.

Paypal adotta le crittografie

Recentemente PayPal ha dichiarato che la pandemia di COVID-19 ha spinto la necessità di pagamenti digitali, anche se il nuovo passo è stato pianificato almeno dalla fine dell’anno scorso e dopo la breve collaborazione di PayPal con il progetto della Bilancia di Facebook, che ora è Diem. PayPal ha annunciato che gli utenti potranno acquistare, vendere e tenere bitcoin nei loro conti.

L’azienda ha anche detto che avrebbe reso il bitcoin e altre valute criptate utilizzabili come metodo di pagamento per gli acquisti attraverso i 28 milioni di commercianti di PayPal. Molti hanno sperato che questa mossa della gigantesca azienda fosse il catalizzatore che avrebbe portato all’adozione diffusa delle valute crittografiche come metodo di pagamento.

Grandi opzioni

Ora alcuni clienti di PayPal possono convertire istantaneamente il loro saldo selezionato di criptovaluta in valuta fiat, con la certezza del valore e senza commissioni incrementali. I suoi commercianti non hanno integrazioni o commissioni aggiuntive, in quanto tutte le transazioni sono regolate con valuta fiat ai loro attuali tassi PayPal.

According to analysts, the announcement by the US central bank that it will continue to print huge amounts of money in the coming years will look like advertising for Bitcoin Bank. That could further heat up the market for the king of cryptocurrencies, it said.

The last few days have brought exciting things. On December 16, the Federal Reserve (simplified: the US central bank, Fed) declared in a press release that it would continue to support the US economy in the coming years. Specifically, they want to buy US government bonds for $ 80 billion a month. Another $ 40 billion is expected to be spent each month buying up mortgage-backed securities. This is to be maintained until the employment targets and inflation of 2 percent are stable.

How long will the Fed support the US economy?

As things stand at present, it may take two to three years to achieve this goal. That would mean the Fed is pumping at least $ 1,440 billion, or over $ 1.4 trillion, into the US economy every year. That would be about 20 percent of total US tax revenue.

Such an expansion of the money supply could lead to inflation, although some experts deny it. In any case, there is a risk of a loss of confidence in the purchasing power of the US dollar.

Mark Haefele, Chief Investment Officer at UBS Global Wealth Management told Reuters :

We see further weakness [in the US dollar].

What impact does the announcement have on Bitcoin?

The first effects of the announcement were already evident yesterday, when Bitcoin (BTC) reached a new all-time high seemingly effortlessly. The price rose to well over 23,400 US dollars per Bitcoin.

Bitcoin has the advantage that it is limited to 21 million pieces and is therefore not subject to inflation. In addition, most classic asset types are heavily overbought (in Germany, for example, real estate), so that many investors try to switch to other assets.

Vishnu Varathan, the chief economist of Mizuho Singapore, one of the largest financial services companies in the world, told Reuters that he expected the Bitcoin price to rise further. One of the reasons for this is the Fed’s US monetary policy.

What else speaks for Bitcoin?

Meanwhile, more and more institutional investors are realizing the value of Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Investments by the major financial service providers from the USA, Europe, Great Britain and Japan could drive the Bitcoin price even further. The Bitcoin market currently has a capitalization of USD 422 billion. If the big financial service providers invest only 1 percent of their funds in Bitcoin, 600 billion US dollars could be added.

Its XRP burns its hands – One of the main problems with XRP is that Ripple Labs and its founders hold astronomical amounts of it. This has become all the more problematic since Jed McCaleb, former founder of Ripple, decided to get rid of his tokens as quickly as possible.

Billions of XRP to spare

In July 2013, Jed McCaleb definitively slammed the door of Ripple (then called OpenCoin ), of which he was however one of the main initiators.

Since then, although he has moved on to his new cryptocurrency project – Stellar (XLM), launched in 2014 – Jed McCaleb has nonetheless retained a large indirect influence on Ripple’s XRP .

Indeed, when he left his previous project, due to differing views, he took away no less than 9.5 billion XRP , or 9.5% of all existing XRP .

After a lengthy legal battle that ended in February 2016, Ripple Labs and Jed McCaled managed to come to an agreement on how to liquidate their XRP which, from the start, expressed a desire to resell them.

The amount of XRP that the former founder of Ripple can resell depends on the global trading volumes of this interbank token. And as these volumes have increased … guess what!

Jed McCaleb steps up XRP liquidation

Stellar’s current CTO can resell up to 1.5% of the global XRP trading volume every day . If this represented “only” 2 million XRP per day last May, the pace has accelerated sharply in recent days.

As anyone can see from Jed McCaleb’s XRP address (thanks to the blockchain transparency ), his liquidation saw a first sharp increase since late last month. Eh yes ! Since November 29, our friend has gone from less than 4 million XRP resold every day to over 9.9 million XRP , or almost $ 6 million.

But since December 6 , the “dump machine” has been racing again . Jed McCaleb has effectively disposed of over 29.57 million XRP in each of the past 2 days , or around $ 35.5 million in tokens resold within 24 hours.

Knowing that there are still nearly 3.7 billion XRP to get rid of, it may end up hurting a lot at this rate, even through OTC transactions (over-the-counter) which nevertheless influence a lot. minus the prices compared to trading on crypto exchanges.

While there is an uncertain future for the development of the digital currency under the presidency of Joe Biden, China is leading the race.

The world is in the throes of a financial war and China is winning. China’s digital Yuan, also known as digital currency electronic payment or DCEP, will soon be used worldwide. The People’s Bank of China is one of the most advanced central banks in the world. For that reason, it has been advancing on the digital currency front, while the United States Federal Reserve appears not to have done so.

And now that Donald Trump and his “United States first” policy have been defeated, although the count is still on and court cases on the results are pending, China’s supremacy in the area of digital currency is assured.

Joe Biden has not outlined a clear technology policy, let alone a digital currency policy. This will ensure China the opportunity to increase its leadership in the digital currency race. Maintaining the US position as a global superpower is nowhere on Biden’s agenda. In 2015, as Vice President, Biden once made a toast to China:

“To the hope and expectation that 50 years from now our great-grandchildren will look back and tell the beautiful story we wrote together.

In 1979, Biden traveled to China as a junior senator after President Richard Nixon normalized U.S.-China relations. During his visit to Sichuan University as Barack Obama’s vice president in 2011, he said:

“I believed in 1979 and said so and I believe now that a rising China is a positive development, not only for the people of China, but for the United States and the world at large. A rising China will drive economic growth and prosperity and bring to the fore a new partner with whom we can tackle global challenges together.

Meanwhile, China is moving forward, launching the world’s first digital currency.

According to the announcements, the Biden and Kamala Harris administration is focusing on the coronavirus, racial equality and climate change. In their foreign policy and leadership plan, called “The Power of America’s Example: Biden’s Plan to Lead the Democratic World in Meeting the Challenges of the 21st Century”, the word “digital” does not appear once. Moreover, Biden has longstanding ties with China and has long been an advocate of its industrialisation and growth into a world leader. When asked by a National Public Radio journalist if he, as president, would maintain Trump’s tariffs on China, Biden replied with a resounding “No”.

The Chinese yuan through the DCEP will become the dominant world currency. The DCEP will not only be successful because of the forward-looking PBoC, but also because of the fact that over 12 million Chinese live outside China; in fact 2.5 million live in the US. They could adopt the digital currency and spread the yuan worldwide.

With their help, the Chinese Yuan can become an international currency Bitcoin Profit. If the Chinese Yuan is used by these people all over the world, the Chinese currency can surpass US monetary sovereignty.

The current situation has been made possible by the COVID-19 pandemic, which has increased dependence on digital services. As tensions rise in the United States, China could divert global influence. While the Federal Reserve has experimented with distributed accounting platforms to understand their potential benefits and trade-offs, it has apparently not made a final decision to adopt such a currency.

Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell has said that the US government is not particularly concerned about speed when it comes to developing a digital central bank currency. Morgan Creek Digital co-founder Anthony Pompliano sounded the alarm on this neglected approach.

Powell explained the slow efforts of the United States:

“We have not made the decision to issue a CBDC and we believe there is still a lot of work to be done.

Powell suggested that developing a CBDC properly was more important than winning the digital currency race. Meanwhile, China is making progress. Pompliano sees this as an existential threat to the US dollar. “They are talking about, like, maybe we will create one in the next few years,” Pompliano said of Powell’s recent comments on CBDCs. “This is not a matter of the next few years. He added:

“This is something that is happening right now, and if they don’t act, the United States will fall far behind China because it all comes down to accessibility.

Pompliano said that the accessibility of a digital trust currency will determine the winner in this new frontier of financial technology. “If I’m sitting somewhere in the world and I can use the internet connection and I want a global currency, can I get a yuan, or can I get the dollar?

Pomp is right. The relevance of the US dollar is at stake. But the time is late, perhaps too late.
