Is This Behind The Latest $25 Billion Bitcoin And Crypto Price Rally?

  • Bitcoin has been soaring over the weekend, boosting most major cryptocurrencies including ethereum, litecoin, Ripple’s XRP, EOS, and bitcoin cash—and adding some $25 billion to the overall cryptocurrency market capitalization since Friday morning, taking it over $200 billion of the first time this year.
  • Now trading at a little over $7,000 per bitcoin, after beginning the year at under $4,000, taking the total value of all bitcoins over $124 billion and making up 58% of the broader cryptocurrency market cap.

Billy Bambrough, Contributor

The bitcoin price is now trading at a little over $7,000 per bitcoin, after beginning the year at under $4,000, taking the total value of all bitcoins over $124 billion and making up 58% of the broader cryptocurrency market cap.

Over the weekend some major bitcoin holders, known as whales, moved a staggering number of the digital tokens, potentially pushing the market higher, with the single biggest whale moving 47,000 bitcoin worth an eye-watering $343 million, according to data from Whale Alert, which tracks big cryptocurrency moves.

The latest bitcoin rally has seen the world’s largest cryptocurrency shoot up by almost 40% over the last 30 days.

Bitcoin whales have traded around 100,000 bitcoin over the weekend, with a total value of some $670 million dollars. Most of the bitcoin whales have been moving their holdings out of major cryptocurrency exchanges, with just a few of the biggest transactions over the weekend involving cryptocurrency wallets moving bitcoin to an exchange.

Large bitcoin and cryptocurrency transactions can prop up the market, with the holders not selling via online exchanges but opting to continue holding the digital tokens instead, known in the bitcoin and cryptocurrency sector as “hodling.”

Bitcoin holders are continuing to bet on the asset despite the bitcoin price almost doubling since the beginning of this year, suggesting they see it moving still higher as bitcoin sentiment turns increasingly bullish.

Last week, analysts from investment bank Canaccord Genuity said they expect bitcoin to rally hard over the next 24 months, potentially returning to its late 2017 highs due to next year’s halving event, where the number of bitcoins rewarded to miners will be cut by 50%.

The last week has been a difficult one for the bitcoin and cryptocurrency sector, however, despite the broad price rally.

Bitcoin climbed even as the market processed the news $40 million of bitcoin (some 7,000 of the digital tokens) were stolen from the Malta-based Binance exchange, the world’s largest bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchange by volume, and Binance’s widely-respected chief executive Changpeng Zhao caused controversy by suggesting he could “re-organize” the bitcoin blockchain to recover the funds.

The bitcoin price climbed over the course of last week despite a serious security breach at major bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchange, Binance. CoinDesk

Meanwhile, the bitcoin and cryptocurrency industry is gearing up for one of the biggest events in the cryptocurrency calendar starting today—Blockchain Week NYC and CoinDesk’s Consensus 2019 event, running all week out of the New York Hilton Midtown.

This year headline speakers include FedEx’s Fred Smith, Fidelity’s Abigail Johnson, Twitter and Square’s Jack Dorsey, chairman of the U.S. Securities Exchange Commission, Jay Clayton, and U.S. presidential hopeful, Andrew Yang.

“As crypto’s true believers gather in New York for Consensus this week, they are counting ever-more household-name companies amongst their number,” said Simon Peters, an analyst at brokerage eToro. “The possibility of big crypto-related announcements from some of the world’s biggest corporates will be part of what is driving bitcoin’s price upward.

“This buzz follows a recent spate of good news for bitcoin, with large institutional investors like Fidelity Investments increasing their exposure to crypto-assets in recent weeks. If we see institutions begin to pump serious money into the market, we could be at the start of a very long bull run for crypto-assets.”

Crypto Markets Hit New 2019 Top as Bitcoin Cranks Higher to $6.3k

By: Martin Young

Market Wrap

  • End of the week has seen crypto markets hit another new high for 2019.
  • Bitcoin is pushing things higher as it eats away at the altcoins and itself posts new highs for the year.
  • Total market capitalization just passed $190 billion for the first time since November 2018.

The end of the week has seen crypto markets hit another new high for 2019. Bitcoin is pushing things higher as it eats away at the altcoins and itself posts new highs for the year. Total market capitalization just passed $190 billion for the first time since November 2018.

A new yearly high of just below $6,300 was made by Bitcoin a couple of hours ago. It has not dropped below $6k since breaching the psychological barrier in early trading yesterday and has pushed on a further 3 percent today. The big move has taken BTC volume up to $18 billion and market cap over $110 billion. Its dominance is now at a 17 month high of 58 percent, a level not seen since the big surge at the end of 2017.

The big move by BTC has pulled Ethereum up a little as it approaches $175. On the downside ETH market share has been eaten away to under ten percent as it remains sluggish.

The top ten is mostly red at the moment with only Litecoin making any positive momentum as it reaches $77 with 2.5 percent added on the day. Binance Coin is getting dumped dropping 8 percent back to $19 and XRP and Stellar continue to get eroded losing another couple of percent today.

There is greater pain in the top twenty as altcoins get assaulted by their big brother. Cosmos has been smashed 8 percent to fall below $4 and Tron and Maker have both lost over 4 percent over the past 24 hours. The rest are losing a couple of percent each as Bitcoin continues to consume them.

FOMO: Arcblock Still Pumping

Yesterday’s fomo driven pump has rolled into another day as ABT surges a further 40 percent lifting its position to 76th. South Koreans are all over this one as Bithumb dominates the trade volume in KRW. Social media tipping based altcoin ReddCoin is also flying at the moment with a gain of 18 percent on the back of Facebook’s rumored foray into crypto. Aurora is back again with another pump today of 15 percent which will dump tomorrow.

Speaking of dumps, WAX is in bad shape as it drops 9 percent as the top one hundred’s biggest loser. BNB and Cosmos are not far behind dumping 8 percent each.

Total market capitalization 24 hours. Coinmarketcap.com

Total crypto market capitalization has reached a new high for the year at $192 billion. The $4 billion, or two percent, gain on the day is largely due to Bitcoin which is a steamroller at the moment. Total daily volume is at its highest level for the week at $54 billion as markets slowly grind towards $200 billion.

Fortis Metals, the world’s leading producer of minor metals, recently forecast a tellurium supply deficit that, “as of 2020 could be as big as a staggering 370 metric tonnes.”

Noting the rapidly-growing use of tellurium for thin-film solar panels, Fortis stated:

            “At the moment, we are still seeing (tellurium) inventories in China but these are  being eaten away by the two main suppliers of First Solar (the world’s largest thin-film solar manufacturer). It is only a matter of time before the market will understand the new dynamics and prices will start to reflect the growing deficit. We would not be surprised to see prices break the previous record seen in  2011.”

GGX has produced some of the highest grade drill intercepts in the world over the 2018 drill season, which compliment High Grade Gold intercepts of:

  • COD18-67: 129 g/t gold, 1,154 g/t silver and 823 g/t tellurium over 7.28-metre core length;
  • COD18-70: 107 g/t gold, 880 g/t silver and 640 g/t tellurium over 6.90-metre core length.
