Christmas upswing fails - Bitcoin is fighting for the upward trend on the 1-year MA

 


Even if the traditional Christmas upswing fails this year, Bitcoin still has the chance to save the upward trend into the new year.


Bitcoin ( BTC ) is at a crossroads with critical support today, December 19, while time for a strong year-end close is getting scarcer.


Does the important support last?

As the data from Cointelegraph Markets Pro and TradingView show, BTC / USD is at $ 47,000 on Sunday, which is still in a well-established price range. 


At this level, Bitcoin also holds above an important support, namely the one-year moving average (1-year MA). This red line has kept the market-leading cryptocurrency on the upswing for a long time, which is why it is all the more important that it can be defended again now.


“Historically, the 1-year MA is an important crossroads, and we are right now at it again,” as crypto expert Philip Swift, co-founder of the research portal Look Into Bitcoin, explains . He adds:



"I think we will defend it successfully and soar upwards."

However, even an upswing would leave a lot of room for improvement in comparison to the daring price forecasts made by some experts at the end of the year.


Including the much-cited Stock-To-Flow (S2F) forecast model from PlanB, which admitted this weekend that its optimistic price target of 100,000 US dollars will probably no longer be achieved this year.


However , he does not yet doubt the validity of his calculation model, because despite the failed forecast, this would still be fully within the target.


Christmas upswing fails

Meanwhile, the unusual end for 2021 does not only affect the crypto market, because the traditional “Christmas upswing” is also largely absent on the other capital markets.


The latest announcements by the American central bank could cause a jump up in the short term, but overall performance in all markets fell short of expectations.


"Looks as if the typical Christmas upswing will not really kick in," as the world's chief financial officer Holger Zschäpitz the situation summarized . To this end he explains:


"The global stock market is $ 1.8 trillion this week following the US Federal Reserve's announcement and rising infection rates. US dollar market capitalization lost, which is why the market starts the year 2022 even more overvalued than it already is. Nonetheless, the stock market is still $ 118 trillion. US dollars, which corresponds to 140% of global GDP. "

In the short term, too, the omens are bad, because the Omikron variant leads to a renewed lockdown in many countries, which inevitably pulls down economic output and does not make the start of the new year any easier.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...
