Crypto News Feb 10: Bitcoin price drop neutralized with news from Solidity, Terra, Nakamoto Games, Shiba Inu, InsurAce, Covalent
From the allegation that Bitcoin invalidates the case to BlackRock, which offers a cryptocurrency trading service. Here are some highlights from the crypto market.
Bitcoin News
Trader Dave the Wave says that once BTC breaks out of its downtrend channel, a “great opportunity” is coming and Bitcoin (BTC)’s drop to the $25,000 region will become obsolete.
“The $25,000 goal appears to have been invalidated. In theory, the market has reached 70% of the top and is falling back to the short-term Fibonacci level.
Dave the Wave says BTC could end up in a “wide range of volatility”. He noted that Bitcoin’s monthly and weekly trend divergence indicators (MACD) are showing mixed signals.
Good chances that the 25,000 ideal/TA target will be invalidated here with a break of the down channel and a significant point of resistance.

“Weekly MACD is up after hitting 0 again. The monthly MACD is still consolidating towards 0. This shows that the market is likely to move sideways and continue to accumulate.”
BTC is currently trading around $44,600. The top crypto asset by market cap is up over 22% in the past seven days.
