Bitcoin: There 'still seems to be plenty of momentum:' technical analyst – Yahoo Finance
After hitting a low of around $31,000 in mid-July, bitcoin (BTC-USD) has healthily recovered, currently trading at around $55,000 following resistance at around $45,000 during September. Amid talks of regulation over cryptocurrency markets, however, OANDA Market Analyst Craig Erlam believes that bitcoin’s momentum will continue.
“You look at the charts, for example, and that's all we really have to go off right now — and there just still seems to be plenty of momentum in the move,” Erlam told Yahoo Finance Live. “You look at some of the shorter-term charts, and potentially we're going to see a little bit of profit-taking around $60,000.”
And though this profit-taking may generate some resistance at the $60,000 level, analysts believe that bitcoin is well positioned to break the all-time high of around $63,000 it reached back in April.
“But that all-time high — the temptation around these levels — the idea that we could be seeing bitcoin breaking into new territory, and the excitement that generates on its own, I think it's going to be enough, potentially, to see this rally continue,” Erlam added.
Erlam joined Yahoo Finance Live’s Brian Sozzi and Julie Hyman to discuss bitcoin's price action and the general market outlook. OANDA is a Canadian-based foreign exchange company providing currency conversion, online retail foreign exchange trading, online foreign currency transfers, and FOREX data.
According to Erlam, crypto markets have been steadfast in the face of calls for increased oversight and China’s ban on cryptocurrency taking into effect. In a House Financial Services Committee oversight hearing last Tuesday, Oct. 5, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler suggested that the SEC has the authority it needs to regulate crypto under existing legislation.
“[Bitcoin doesn’t] necessarily need headlines,” Erlam said. “We look at the price action from the last few weeks alone. It looked like we were pushing new lows. It looked like we were just looking at support levels being broken. And there was an incredible amount of resilience in the markets, despite the fact that it looked like technical levels had been broken.”
Part of the reason why so many people want to be involved in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is because of the “excitement” that it brings whenever significant price movements occur, Erlam said. Ultimately, he believes, bitcoin is unlike any other asset currently on the market.
“I think we've got to wait a long time to decide what bitcoin is and what it's going to be, if anything,” Erlam said. “I think bitcoin, quite often, can move in line with some assets, but you do see those correlations break down quite quickly.”

Of course, your financial adviser isn’t always going to be able to follow that rule — the markets do go down, and nobody beats the market every time, even Buffett himself — but when they do lose you money, how do you know when to pull the plug? “Some brokerage firms may include a target portfolio as part of their statement or a financial adviser can likely include it in a client’s portfolio review,” says Lam-Balfour. Additionally, you can use a benchmark like the S&P 500 but you will likely need to do a weighted average of one or more indices because a diversified portfolio will not be 100% invested in the S&P 500.

Polygon Reveals Details About Its Future Collaboration With LBank During AMA – Press release Bitcoin News – Bitcoin News
PRESS RELEASE. Recently, LBank Exchange held an AMA session with the Polygon team, discussing Polygon’s achievements, collaborations, NFT and Gaming markets, Nightfall solution, future plans and so on. Here’s the summary of this AMA.
Ethereum is the blockchain development platform of choice, but it has limitations such as low throughput, poor UX, and no sovereignty. As a protocol and a framework for building and connecting Ethereum-compatible blockchain networks, Polygon breaks through these limitations by aggregating scalable solutions on Ethereum and supporting a multi-chain Ethereum ecosystem.
Polygon Outperforms Ethereum In-terms Of Active Users
As a layer 2 solutions aggregator built on top of Ethereum, Polygon has made some great achievements since its birth, its POS chain has over 2000 DApps live and processes over 7 million transactions daily. In fact, Polygon now has more daily active users than Ethereum.
MATIC, the token for the polygon network, is already live on trading platforms like LBank Exchange, and currently the trading volume of it is over 1 billion across exchanges. Polygon team is aiming to make more people hold MATIC tokens, and it’s hoping to see MATIC’s trading volume on LBank Exchange continue to grow as well.
Expanding the Polygon ecosystem
With the power to bring thousands of new users into blockchain, NFT and Gaming markets are strategic sectors that Polygon continues to focus on. There are already some of the largest gaming projects live on Polygon, such as Decentral Games, Sandbox, Somnium Space, Vulcan Verse, etc. As for NFT projects, there are OpenSea, Lazy.com, Autograph, etc.
The team will be bringing many more such games and NFT projects onto Polygon so that its community can enjoy more artwork and fun. In addition, Polygon allows for massive scalability, and compared to Ethereum, minting costs on Polygon are 100,000 times cheaper on average.
Polygon also has products designed for enterprise customers who need privacy and scalability, such as Nightfall, a one-of-a-kind, privacy-focused Rollup that combines Optimistic Rollups with Zero-Knowledge (ZK) cryptography commonly used in ZK Rollups. It creates a scalable and private hybrid of the two popular technologies.
Polygon Nightfall has the power to bring many large enterprises into blockchain, the team believes that it will lead to a large number of transactions on Polygon and further add new projects and users to the Polygon ecosystem.
Big Plans Ahead
The Polygon team has already got some big plans ahead. On the technical side, Polygon is investing heavily into ZK and ZK Rollup technology, for example, the team has already spent $250 million on acquiring Hermez, which is a decentralized, open-source ZK Rollup optimized for secure, low-cost and usable token transfers on the wings of Ethereum.
Polygon has also acquired another 4 teams to build more ZK Rollup chains, to achieve the goal of building highly scalable EVM enabled ZK Rollup technology. In addition, Polygon has updates coming for its POS chain and details on EIP 1559 implementation.
On the business side, Polygon has many exciting updates as well, with lots of big DApps and integrations planned. Significantly, Arjun, Polygon’s Head of Growth, points out that LBank is enhancing its global branding. He also assures that the love of the community makes the team achieve its goals, so it will continue to collaborate with LBank Exchange to bring more Polygon projects and tokens to the community. Polygon team will keep posting on its official social media accounts such as Twitter to reveal more details about future plans and latest updates.

‘Trillions Of Dollars’—Bitcoin Braced For A Massive Earthquake As The Price Of Ethereum, Binance’s BNB, Solana, Cardano And XRP Soar – Forbes
Bitcoin and cryptocurrency prices have rocketed over the last month, with the combined crypto market surging towards $3 trillion as ethereum, Binance’s BNB, solana, cardano and XRP make double-digit percentage gains.

The bitcoin price has climbed from around $45,000 per bitcoin in early October to all-time highs of $67,000 late last month, in part due to the launch of the first U.S. bitcoin futures exchange-traded funds (ETFs). Bitcoin has recently dropped back—despite huge new price targets even as ethereum and its smaller rivals hit fresh highs.
Now, Michael Saylor, a bullish bitcoin buyer, has predicted “trillions of dollars” will flow into bitcoin once the U.S. regulator approves a fully-fledged bitcoin ETF—helping bitcoin to replace gold and become the primary asset index for the Western world.

The bitcoin price has surged through 2021 but much of the crypto market’s gains have come from … [+]
“To do that, you need the spot ETF,” said Saylor, the chief executive of business intelligence software company MicroStrategy, speaking this week at Bloomberg‘s Financial Innovation Summit. “And once these spot ETFs roll, I think you’ll see billions, then tens of billions, then hundreds of billions, then trillions of dollars flow into them.”
Over the last year, Saylor has pivoted Microstrategy to a bitcoin acquisition vehicle, buying more than 110,000 bitcoins. The value of the company’s bitcoin holdings is around $7 billion, making up almost all of MicroStrategy’s $8 billion market capitalization.
Saylor said he expects a U.S.-based spot bitcoin ETF would act as an institutional on-ramp for investors who want bitcoin exposure, adding he’ll continue buying bitcoin via MicroStrategy. Such funds are already live in other countries, including Canada.
The launch of two U.S. bitcoin futures ETFs in October generated huge media attention, with the ProShares Bitcoin Strategy ETF accumulating more than $1 billion in assets in mere days. However, some, including general partner at Castle Island Ventures Nic Carter, have called futures-based ETFs “inferior” as they don’t give direct exposure to the underlying asset. Carter, speaking alongside Saylor, said a spot bitcoin ETF would be “the hottest commodity ETF launch of all time.”
“The right answer is: let investors buy a trillion dollars worth of bitcoin via an ETF because the ETFs plug into the existing security structure, the existing prime brokerages, the existing collateral packages,” said Saylor.

Meanwhile, bullish bitcoin and crypto market watchers continue to predict prices will surge into the end of 2021. While bitcoin has lost ground this week, ethereum has added almost 5%, with its too biggest rivals, Binance’s BNB and solana, both surging by around 20%.
“Intraday volatility is completely normal after such a bullish month, but the higher time frame is looking solid for now,” Lukas Enzersdorfer-Konrad, chief product officer at Vienna-based bitcoin and crypto trading platform Bitpanda, said in emailed comments. “The crypto market is more integrated into the world economy every day which only shows how important it is for bigger institutions but on the other hand, is also under pressure from macro events.”
“A melt-up in bitcoin and ethereum into year-end is likelier than retracement, we believe, after 2021 corrections cleansed speculative positions, and with increasing demand and adoption, and declining supply, sustaining a bull market,” Bloomberg Intelligence senior commodity strategist Mike McGlone wrote in his latest market report, pointing to a “tidal wave of U.S. ETFs.”
“The startup of U.S. ETFs and the fact that cryptos counter China bans limit downside risks.”

XRP Set for Massive Breakout With Altcoins Poised to Steal the Show From Bitcoin, Predicts Top Crypto Analyst – The Daily Hodl
One closely followed crypto analyst is bullish on XRP and thinks that altcoins are in a prime position to outpace Bitcoin (BTC).
The pseudonymous analyst known as Credible Crypto tells his 257,400 Twitter followers that XRP’s price structure looks very similar to data-sharing protocol OriginTrail, whose native token TRAC just rallied more than 300% following its recent listing on Coinbase Pro.
He expects XRP to follow a similar path to TRAC, taking the cryptocurrency back to its previous all-time high of $3.40.
“The XRP chart below is from my last YouTube video on XRP made in August. The chart next to it is another coin that I came across today that has the same structure but is one step ahead with the 5th wave already in progress. Do you see it now?”
After Ethereum’s new breakout against Bitcoin (ETH/BTC), the trader anticipates ETH’s next leg up to kick off a new alt season.
He also notes that Bitcoin dominance has likely already topped out, further paving the way for an altcoin rally.
“ETH/BTC broke out today, closing above the key resistance zone I was watching. This is a great sign and indicates BTC dominance may have already found its top and alts may be about to steal the show, led by ETH.”
The analyst says that Bitcoin dominance dropping doesn’t necessarily mean that BTC’s price will drop.
No it just means that if BTC is rising alts will probably rise faster. We saw this in 2017 in the latter stages of the bull run as lots of new money started pouring in.
— CrediBULL Crypto (@CredibleCrypto) November 3, 2021
Taking a closer look at the top crypto asset, Credible says that Bitcoin is close to deciding whether it wants to break to the upside or continue ranging.
According to his analysis, a rejection of $63,000-$64,000 could take BTC back to major support around $58.000.
“63-64k tagged BTC. Now to see if we break out to new ATH [all-time high] or reject soon and continue to range.”
