All major cryptocurrencies continued to lose value this week, stretching the decline that began in early December. Today, as a sigh of relief, most significant coins were striving hard to bounce back and were trading flat instead of a further massacre.
All Eyes on US Inflation Report
The founder of New York-based asset management company Aike Capital, Alex Kruger, warns that if Wednesday’s U.S. inflation report is greater than expected, Bitcoin (BTC) might drop as low as $30,000 before recovering to its previous level. According to CoinMarketCap, the Bitcoin price today is $42,023.35 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $21,168,916,966 USD. BTC is up 0.33% in the last 24 hours.
Similar is the situation of Ethereum. Support levels like the 200-EMA and $3600 psychological threshold were destroyed during the latest bloodbath for ETH. Price of Ethereum fell sharply today. Still, it rebounded quickly, breaching the 50% Fibonacci retracement mark, signaling the start of an extended corrective period. According to CoinMarketCap, the Ethereum price today is $3,163.19 USD with a 24-hour trading volume of $12,034,323,950 USD. Ethereum has been up 1.10% in the last 24 hours.
