Image

November In Focus; PlanB’s $98K BTC Prediction Fails, Ethereum Supply Drops, Litecoin Demand Heightens

Image
The popular belief that November would be characterized by a spirited price surge by cryptocurrencies because “it always does” is no doubt proving to be a mirage even as crypto assets recoil in what seemingly appears to be temporary bullish exhaustion. Whereas there is still a window of opportunity between now and year-end, pundits are increasingly shelving their expectations for Bitcoin hitting $100,000 before December 31. Last week, PlanB accepted that his prediction of Bitcoin hitting 98,000 by end of November based on his S2F model had failed for the first time. “Floor model $98K Nov close will probably be a first miss (after nailing Aug, Sep, Oct)” he said. Onchain Metrics Reveal Bullish Activity Despite undesired outcomes, on-chain metrics still support a bullish market across cryptocurrencies according to a recent report by Kraken Exchange. According to the report, the amount of Bitcoin and Ethereum supply on centralized exchanges has continued to drop with the assets’...

Popular crypto influencer Lark Davis claims the price of ADA is about to take off with the upcoming DeFi projects. At the moment, Cardano powers over 4000 smart contracts on its platform. When Cardano ushered in the era of smart contracts on its platform with the successful launch of the Alonzo Mainnet, ADA rallied to a record price to become the 4th largest cryptocurrency by market cap – with a market value of about $75 billion. Alonzo also saw ADA hit $3 for the first time since its inception, surpassing Binance Coin (BNB) to become the third-largest digital asset by market value. However, the coin has been unable to sustain this uptrend, witnessing a small correction. For the past few weeks, Cardano (ADA) has been forming lower lows from a close of $2 in October to the current low of $1.43. At press time, Cardano (ADA) is changing hands at $1.59, up 1.5...
