Sathvik Vishwanath, Co-Founder & CEO, Unocoin said, "BTC rose 2.5% in the last 24 hours to reach $70,561, while the broader crypto market gained 1.5%. Despite a 6.5% weekly gain, BTC is down 2% for the month. Expectations of an inflation-driven Fed rate cut, and the upcoming weekly halving are fueling optimism for further gains. Technical indicators such as the 30-day moving average and the relative strength index signal rising momentum without overbought conditions. Converging resistance and support levels indicate a significant move forward, likely due to a halving. Short-term selling is expected after the halving, but long-term price appreciation is expected due to reduced supply. With BTC only 4% away from its all-time high, projections suggest it could reach $75,000 by May and $80,000-$90,000 by Q3 2024."
DeFi was down by 0.63 per cent to $7.51 billion, Coinmarketcap.com reported.
