When will it be too late to invest in Bitcoin?

This week’s episode of Market Talks discusses whether it will ever be “too late” to buy Bitcoin and why BTC could take over the financial world. On the latest episode of Cointelegraph’s Market Talks , host Ray Salmond spoke with Luke Broyles, a popular Bitcoin (BTC) advocate and content creator on YouTube and X (formerly Twitter). During the show, Broyles laid out his Bitcoin invest ment thesis and his unique perspectives on how the asset’s price could eventually rise into seven-figure territory. Broyles said that in 2020, he realized the bond market was broken. While searching for alternative invest ments, he discovered Bitcoin as a sound option. When asked about his Bitcoin invest ment strategy and how he stomachs the volatility, Broyles said:  “I do not own bonds. I have sold off 97% of my stocks over the past three years, and I’m selling off the last 3% this week actually, so it’s funny that you ask that. By the end of this week, the only three assets that I will own will be U.S. ...

Bitcoin price breaks from range with drop below $28K, and options tilt toward BTC bears

Image
About $570 million in weekly BTC options expire on Friday, and the recent macro and crypto news events have further tilted the advantage to bearish traders. On Aug. 16, Bitcoin closed below $29,000 for the first time in 56 days. Analysts quickly pointed to this week’s Federal Open Market Committee minutes, which expressed concerns about inflation and the need to increase interest rates, as the likely cause. Despite the immediate reasons for the drop, the upcoming $580 million Bitcoin (BTC) options expiry on Friday favors the bears. They could potentially make a $140 million profit on Aug. 18, adding to the downward pressure on Bitcoin and complicating BTC’s search for a bottom. Federal Reserve minutes did not impact traditional markets On Aug. 16, Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell emphasized the 2% inflation target. This pushed the U.S. 10-year Treasury yield to its highest level since October 2007, prompting investors to shift away from riskier assets like cryptocurrencies in favo...

How will Bitcoin halving affect BTC price, and is DeFi dead?

Blockware Solutions account executive David Gamble told Market Talks host Ray Salmond that the crypto market will hit a $10 trillion market cap in the next few years. On the latest episode of Market Talks , host Ray Salmond spoke with Blockware Solutions account executive David Gamble about the future of Bitcoin (BTC) mining, expectations for the cryptocurrency’s price , and his views on how the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector needs to evolve.  Gamble described himself as a staunch believer in DeFi, but he added that protocols within the industry need to find ways to incorporate tokenized real-world assets instead of relying on mercenary capital and the attraction of liquid staking. According to Gamble, the steady entry of institutional investors and even central bankers experimenting with tokenized bonds and other yield-bearing assets could be a step in the right direction. The best time to buy Bitcoin is now Bitcoin’s block reward halving is less than 300 days away, and many i...

Bitcoin price erases FOMC gains as US dollar surges on Q2 GDP print

Bitcoin casts off a U.S. GDP "nothingburger" but DXY charges to two-week highs in what is traditionally a BTC price headwind. Bitcoin (BTC) ate away at the prior day’s gains on July 27 as United States macroeconomic data produced a muted reaction. BTC/USD 1-hour chart. Source: TradingView Analyst warns of BTC price dip Data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView showed BTC price strength waning after a brief push to $29,680 into the daily close. The largest cryptocurrency had offered a modest uptick after the Federal Reserve hiked interest rates to their highest since 2001 — a move already price d in by markets. The day’s U.S. GDP advanced print for Q2 came in better than forecast at 2.4% annualized, pointing to inflationary pressures continuing to ebb in what could prove a catalyst for risk asset performance.

Biggest mining difficulty drop of 2023? 5 things to know in Bitcoin this week

Image
Bitcoin begins to fulfil traders' downside targets as BTC price action retraces its steps in a crucial macro week. Bitcoin (BTC) enters the last full week of July on an uncertain footing as $30,000 becomes resistance. In what promises to be an exciting — but perhaps nerve-racking — week for traders, BTC price action is staring down a combination of volatility triggers. Chief among these is the United States Federal Reserve’s decision on interest rates, this headlining an important slew of macro data releases. Some hope that these alone will be enough to shake Bitcoin out of its month-long trading range, in which it has barely moved from the $30,000 mark. The market has so far offered little by way of cues as to where it might head next. That said, traders have become impatient, and increasingly believe that BTC/USD will ultimately break down from current levels to head toward $25,000 or even lower. Cointelegaph takes a look at the main factors in the debate over BTC price performa...

Several Bitcoin price indicators suggest that BTC’s narrow trading range could end soon, resulting in a volatile price move in BTC and altcoins. Bitcoin continues to test investors’ patience, as it remains stuck inside a tight range. Although the near term is boring, traders need to be on their toes because narrow ranges are generally followed by a sharp increase in volatility. The only problem is that it is difficult to predict the direction of the breakout with certainty. Glassnode’s latest weekly newsletter highlighted that Bitcoin’s (BTC) consolidation has shrunk the Bollinger Bands, which are separated by just 4.2%. Citing various on-chain indicators, the authors concluded that investors are unwilling to sell, and in several aspects, it looks similar to “periods like 2016 and 2019-20, characterized by choppy market conditions.” Daily cryptocurrency market performance.
