Crypto News - daily rally to the possible bearish reversal; 7,579 is the key (based on the article)

Bitcoin daily price by Metatrader 5

  • "A strong rally over the last seven days sent Bitcoin prices firmly above the $7,000. Ethereum and XRP registered double-digit gains. Most gains came in the last forty-eight hours, following positive comments by Goldman Sachs’ incoming CEO about the digital currency."
  • "In research underway with my student Greg Giordano, we applied two econometric models to estimate Bitcoin’s intrinsic value over the last two years. The first model is the Hayes' cost production model, which estimates Bitcoin based on a number of supply or cost factors -- and places the intrinsic value of Bitcoin at $7,185.26. Still, econometric models are subject to all kinds of theoretical and empirical limitations. Investors should interpret findings with extreme caution."

Crypto News - Bitcoin:  daily bullish ranging; 8,479 resistance is the key (based on the article)

Bitcoin chart by Metatrader 5

  • "The price of bitcoin surged above $8,000 last Tuesday for the first time since May after the Group of 20 (G20) meeting in Argentina concluded with little urgency to take regulatory action on cryptocurrencies. In a communiqué, G20 finance ministers and central bank governors expressed confidence that the technology underlying alt-coins “can deliver significant benefits to the financial system and the broader economy.” Many of these benefits were discussed in my interview with Marco Streng, cofounder of Genesis Mining, the world’s largest cloud bitcoin mining company. Genesis had a huge win last week as securities regulators in South Carolina dismissed their cease-and-desist orders from March. The move, according to CoinDesk, marks the first time the state dropped such orders against a blockchain startup."
  • "Keep in mind, though, that we’re still very early in crypto investing. It was only 10 years ago that the mysterious Satoshi Nakamoto wrote the now-famous whitepaper that led to the creation of bitcoin. Volatility is still roughly six times as high as large-cap stocks and gold in a single trading session, and 11 times as high in the 10-day period. As I told Market One Media recently, the space remains speculative, but there are opportunities for tremendous upside."

Crypto News - Bitcoin price forecast in 2020 - from $55,931 to $2352 (based on the article)

Bitcoin price forecast in 2020

  • Bullish forecast - "Bitcoin price volatility is just “noise” which makes it hard to see the position the digital currency will be in, let’s say, years from now. To figure that out, my student Greg Giordano and I have been doing some econometric work lately. Greg ran two econometric models, the Haye’s model and the Wheatley models—see table 3. On the one side, the Haye’s model predicts a price of $55,931.60. That’s a very bullish forecast. For a good reason: it focuses on the supply side of the Bitcoin market, which is expected to grow at an ever-slower pace, as it gets closer to the limit."
  • Bearish forecast - "On the other side, the Wheatley model predicts a price of $2352.03. That’s a very bearish forecast -- for a good reason, too. The model focuses on the Bitcoin use, that is, on the demand side of the Bitcoin market. And Bitcoin demand has been growing slowly, as evidenced by a recent Gallup survey."

  • "Wall Street is working on a new platform which will ease the trading, storing and spending digital assets. That’s bullish for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. It will help them gain acceptance among investors, merchants and consumers."
  • "Last week, Intercontinental Exchange (ICE) announced plans to form a new company, Bakkt, with the purpose to create an open and regulated global ecosystem for digital assets. The new company is expected to work with a marquee group of organizations that includes BCG, Microsoft, Starbucks and others to come up with an integrated platform that will ease the trading, storing and spending of digital assets. That’s good news for bitcoin bulls, as an “epidemic” means higher bitcoin prices, especially since bitcoin is in limited supply, provided that big governments, big banks, and hackers do not spoil the party."

    Bitcoin ATMs are installed in 73 countries in the world. Two thirds of them are concentrated in North America. Out of a total of 3,504 BATMs worldwide, 2163 are installed in the United States, and 613 in Canada. Los Angeles has the most number of BATMs in the United States, 253, followed by Chicago with 183 ATMs."

One Chart Explains Why You Should Own Bitcoin (based on the article)

  • "One of the reasons to own Bitcoin and CCs is that they are not correlated with other assets. Investopedia defines correlation as, “A perfect positive correlation means that the correlation coefficient is exactly 1. This implies that as one security moves, either up or down, the other security moves in lockstep, in the same direction. A perfect negative correlation means that two assets move in opposite directions, while a zero correlation implies no relationship at all.”"
  • "The National Bureau of Economic Analysis published a working paper this month that supports Fundstrat’s findings. It compared Bitcoin, Ripple and Ethereum to stocks, currencies, commodities and macroeconomic factors. The 25 page report did a detailed economic analysis and found that “cryptocurrency returns can be predicted by factors which are specific to cryptocurrency markets. Specifically, we determine that there is a strong time-series momentum effect and that proxies for investor attention strongly forecast cryptocurrency returns.” Their main conclusion was that “only cryptocurrency market specific factors – momentum and the proxies for investor attention – consistently explain the variations of cryptocurrency returns. This suggests, in contrast to popular explanations, that markets do not view cryptocurrencies similarly to standard asset classes.”"
  • "Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies have very little to no correlation to other asset classes. They could be a worthwhile investment in a turbulent market if all of them move in a downward direction. However, digital currencies are very risky so conduct very detailed due diligence."

In the upper right quarter of the chart below the analysis shows that the closest correlation between Bitcoin and other CCs (depicted as the FS CryptoFX Indexes Fundstrat developed and tracks) is in the high-teens with about half of all the comparisons in the single digits. This means that Bitcoin’s and the other CCs price movements are not tied to these other asset classes.
