Bitcoin's 10-day flat
Market picture
Bitcoin is up 3.1% over the past 24 hours, trading around $19,400. After a downward momentum early in the day, the first cryptocurrency received some support thanks to a recovery in risk appetite.
Ethereum is gaining 3.5% overnight to $1330, with the top cryptocurrencies ranging from +0.5% (Cardano) to +4.7% (BNB). Overall, total crypto capitalisation rose 2.2% to $937B overnight, according to CoinMarketCap.
CoinShares said UK investors are buying Bitcoin amid the Pound's collapse this week, as we see with rising BTC/GBP trading volumes.
The momentum in the first and second half of the day has balanced each other out. As a result, Bitcoin has been moving sideways for the last ten days - without a clear trend and in a narrow range. This "dangling at the bottom" indicates Bitcoin accumulates in the area just below 20K. For now, the long-term pattern remains that the first cryptocurrency is attracting buyers on the decline from the previous cyclical peak.
