Bitcoin Rally As Altcoins Turn Green, Pushes Market Above $1 Trillion Threshold

Following strong weekly double-digit gains from Bitcoin and a
number of big-cap altcoins, the cryptocurrency market
capitalization surpassed $1 trillion. $1 Trillion Market Crossed
Again For the first time since June 13, a significant gain on
Monday in both bitcoin and ether helped lift the market worth of
cryptocurrencies back beyond the $1 trillion level. The largest
cryptocurrency has reached its highest prices since a selloff in
mid-June brought the price of bitcoin down from $30,000 to as low
as $18,000, rising 5% in the last 24 hours to $22,300. During the
late 2017 bull market surge for bitcoin, that same level served as
a strong region of resistance, and in technical analysis, old
resistance typically turns into new support (and vice versa).

For cryptocurrency investors, Monday’s profits should come as a
relief after the preceding nine months have seen them endure a
terrible bear market. As a result of the prolonged bear market in
cryptocurrencies, $2 trillion in market value has been lost, and
several crypto companies, including Celsius, Voyager Digital, and
Three Arrows Capital, have gone bankrupt. Despite analyst
predictions that the Federal Reserve would increase interest rates
by at least 75 basis points at the Federal Open Market Committee
meeting on July 27, the traditional markets are mildly higher on
the day that cryptocurrencies are generally in the black. While
traders may like the uptick in price on July 18, several analysts
warn that it is merely a bear market pump. Related Reading

Poised For Rebound According to TradingView data, Bitcoin has made
considerable gains over the past week. At the time of writing, BTC
had risen by 16 percent from its most recent low of $18,907. The
most valuable cryptocurrency is currently bumping up into
resistance at the 200-week moving average, which also happens to be
the top of the trading range that BTC has been stuck in since the
middle of June. Over the past five weeks, attempts to break above
this level have been repeatedly rejected, proving it to be a
difficult nut to crack. It is yet unclear whether Bitcoin will be
able to overcome this barrier and climb higher or if it will
continue to fluctuate between $19,000 and $22,000. $BTC battling
that 200 Week MA again. Rejected 3 times in the last 5 weeks here.
Decision time imo. We either have a fat breakout or fat breakdown.
$ETH has been leading the market so far, along with many other
altcoins. Breakouts occurring everywhere. Can $BTC follow suit?

The major distinction between the present bear market and previous
cycles, according to Glassnode’s most recent newsletter, is
“duration” and many on-chain measures are now comparable to these
historical drawdowns. Realized price, which is calculated as the
value of all Bitcoin divided by the quantity of BTC in circulation,
has shown to be a good indicator of bear market bottoms. Number of
days Bitcoin price traded below the realized price. Source:
Glassnode With the exception of the flash crash in March 2020,
which is depicted on the above chart, Bitcoin has consistently
traded below its realized price for a protracted period of time
throughout bear markets. Glassnode explained: “The average time
spent below the Realized Price is 197-days, compared to the current
market with just 35-days on the clock.” Related Reading
