Breaking: Bitcoin (BTC) is Up by 15% in Past 24 Hours
That is correct what you read in the title. Bitcoin is past $4,500, and that is the good news for a lot of investors. At the time of writing, data on Berminal shows that BTC is trading at $4,700, a tad which is higher than other markets. This sudden jump of Bitcoin, which effectively came out of nowhere, came after Bitcoin traded in the $4,200 range for the better part of three days.
It isn’t evident what caused this sudden pump in bitcoin price, but considering the volume indicators, a whale likely placed a big sell order. Amazingly, this move pushed Bitcoin dominance back above 51.1%, as this indicator ranged under 50% for quite a lot of time as a result of the early stages of the so-called altseason.
As this move activated flags across the industry, many took it to Twitter. An industry journalist, Joseph Young, commented that Bitcoin is above $4,400 for the first time in four months, which is a level of significance as we have set up in ongoing reports. Alex Kruger clarified that Bitcoin is currently trading above its 200-day moving average, showing a positive sign as clarified by Tom Lee, himself and others.
$BTC Update – breaking above the 200-Day MA and weekly horizontal resistance is significant
But I need to remind you of one thing
It needs to CLOSE above this level
Wicking above this level is a mere tease my friends pic.twitter.com/DSp01HrlyG
