Bitcoin, Ethereum, XRP updates

  • Bitcoin touched $65,000, a key level on Sunday. The rally in the risk asset is likely a sign of returning risk appetite among traders. Comments from US Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell at Jackson Hole confirmed expectations for a potential rate cut in September, which has contributed to optimism among traders. 
  • Bitcoin sees increasing positive correlation with US equities, per a recent Bloomberg report. This is likely a positive sign for the asset, and a broader rally could see Bitcoin gain alongside US stocks. 
  • Ethereum has failed to begin its recovery and noted a 13% decline from the $3,000 level in the last two weeks. The $3,000 level is key resistance for Ether, and several factors have contributed to rising selling pressure on ETH. 
  • Ethereum struggles under $3,000 with eight consecutive days of Ether ETF outflows, what’s next
  • XRP slipped under $0.65, a key level for the altcoin, on July 31. Since then the altcoin has traded sideways and hovers around $0.60 early on Tuesday.

Bitcoin, altcoins, stablecoins FAQs

Bitcoin is the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, a virtual currency designed to serve as money. This form of payment cannot be controlled by any one person, group, or entity, which eliminates the need for third-party participation during financial transactions.

Altcoins are any cryptocurrency apart from Bitcoin, but some also regard Ethereum as a non-altcoin because it is from these two cryptocurrencies that forking happens. If this is true, then Litecoin is the first altcoin, forked from the Bitcoin protocol and, therefore, an “improved” version of it.

Stablecoins are cryptocurrencies designed to have a stable price, with their value backed by a reserve of the asset it represents. To achieve this, the value of any one stablecoin is pegged to a commodity or financial instrument, such as the US Dollar (USD), with its supply regulated by an algorithm or demand. The main goal of stablecoins is to provide an on/off-ramp for investors willing to trade and invest in cryptocurrencies. Stablecoins also allow investors to store value since cryptocurrencies, in general, are subject to volatility.

Bitcoin dominance is the ratio of Bitcoin's market capitalization to the total market capitalization of all cryptocurrencies combined. It provides a clear picture of Bitcoin’s interest among investors. A high BTC dominance typically happens before and during a bull run, in which investors resort to investing in relatively stable and high market capitalization cryptocurrency like Bitcoin. A drop in BTC dominance usually means that investors are moving their capital and/or profits to altcoins in a quest for higher returns, which usually triggers an explosion of altcoin rallies.
