Bitcoin Price Increases and Forecasts Are Shattered

Some cryptocurrency research analysts predicted that in 2019 these crypto assets would keep a downfall trend and in the best of cases would hold a steady price.

However, April 2 marked a major rise in bitcoin’s Price, which seems to represent new capital injection to the rest of the altcoin market.

Just 24 hours before the aforementioned day, bitcoin was traded towards the USD 4.150; then, in less than one hour, it reached USD 4,850 and dropped to USD 4,750, but at the moment of writing this article BTC is traded at USD 7,924.10.

As most cryptocurrencies, there is still a high correlation between the traditional assets market and bitcoin and this token is the most liquid cryptocurrency in the market. The crypto market is benefiting from this rise.

So far, there are unclear reasons for this sudden increase of bitcoin’s price. Some media have related this increase to fool jokes and fake news on the approval of a BTC EFT in the US market, but it seems that this rise is caused by market dynamics.

Bitcoin’s price has been on a steady rise for three months, but in comparison to this same date last year, those who could afford to buy at that time are still losing over 30%.

A report, authored by Adamant Capital founders Tuur Demeester and Michiel Lescrauwaet, argues several reasons for optimism on the future of bitcoin.

The report highlights that bitcoin is in a heavy accumulation phase with a volatility drop, after showing a major decline in December last year.

Likewise, Adamant states that bitcoin is very likely to head lower in a cycle that seemed auspicious.
“We think bitcoin has entered the accumulation phase of the bear market and has recovered from capitulation; bockchain data show holders are looking at long-term horizons again, according to our drawdown and volatility analyses,” suggested the report by Adamant Capital.

These results suggest that bitcoin is the strongest cryptocurrency and is here to stay for many years.

Cryptocurrency Universe Expands Far Beyond Bitcoin

The code base is increasing and improving every day as computer science graduates from top schools jump on board. By Aaron Brown A sort of “cryptobrawl” broke out last month at the Milken Institute Global Conference between economist Nouriel Roubini and panel participants more optimistic about the future of cryptocurrency technologies. I had the opportunity to participate in a partial rematch at Battle of the Quants, where Roubini was just as negative and DMS Governance's John D’Agostino presented a moderate defense. All of the heat concerns the border of crypto and traditional finance, but much of the important stuff is happening far from the border. For example, one of Roubini's claims is that advances in financial technology by existing financial institutions and startups are delivering on many of the promises of crypto-enthusiasts, and these will continue to transform financial markets. That’s true. However, many of those advances were spurred by the threat of ...

The numbers: Small businesses turned more optimistic about sales and profits in the first month of 2020, but they are still struggling to find qualified workers, according to a closely followed survey. The National Federation of Independent Business said its index of small-business optimism rebounded from a small dip in at the end of last year, rising to 104.3 points in January from 102.7 in December. Business owners were more confident that sales would continue to rise and help support higher profits, the NFIB said. What happened: The net percent of owners who expect higher inflation-adjusted sales in the months ahead rose by 7 points to 23%. By and large, business owners were nonplussed by the impeachment trial of President Donald Trump. A gauge that measures uncertainty was basically unchanged. The biggest worry of small businesses continues to be a shortage of skilled employees available for hire. A quarter of owners say it’s their No. 1 problem — more than taxes or re...
