Bitcoin news before Fed meeting — what trader needs to know?

letizo News

Published

on

Bitcoin started the new week with a fall. Quotes are testing the strength of the 21,900 level, which served as support. Whether it will hold or not is doubtful, because of the Fed meeting this week, which is expected to raise interest rates.

Fed meeting and bitcoin — what to expect? Technically, the major cryptocurrency has two possible scenarios right now. The first is a recovery if the support of 21,900 holds. The target remains at the level of $25,000 per coin. The second is a return to the 18,900 — 21,900 range and a decline towards its support.

Bitcoin price and Fed meeting — be careful, or what is the connection?

What effect will the Fed meeting have on bitcoin prices? On July 27, the Fed is expected to decide on interest rates. Not only will the fact of raising will matter, but also the rhetoric regarding inflation and the central banks’ further plans for monetary policy.

The cryptocurrency market, as we have seen before, does not like tight monetary policy, and expensive money in a collapse of the crypto market will not help the demand for digital assets. And while technical benchmarks are important and described above, the encouraging predictions of analyst PlanB, creator of his own method for analyzing the crypto market, is worthy of interest.

The analyst noted that the speed at which bitcoin bounced back from its 200-week moving average this month could be one of the drivers missing from similar bearish phases.

Fed meeting and bitcoin: Small buyers take the lead

A recent study by crypto analytics firm Arcane Research noted that cumulative institutional sales reached more than 236,000 BTC during the May 12 Terra/LUNA crash.

Meanwhile, data from another analytics platform, Glassnode, measures that the number of market participants owning amounts of 1 BTC or less has grown faster than ever in the total BTC supply. This trend accelerated sharply in 2022.

Fed meeting: Falling amount of crypto assets under management

While the crypto market rebounded unabashedly last week, the total value of global crypto assets under management (AUM) fell to $30.2 billion last week. And that’s despite a weekly inflow of $30 million. Bitcoin has seen a significant drop in the value of BTC assets under management during the current crypto-winter period.

A CoinShares report shows that international digital asset managers currently hold $19.3 billion in BTC assets. In November 2021, asset management companies owned more than $40 billion in bitcoin assets.

Investment products associated with other crypto-assets, such as Ethereum, BNB and Litecoin, have also run into serious problems over the past eight months.

Regarding annual performance, Ethereum investment products suffered the most. ETH has experienced a record $316 million in outflows since the beginning of 2022.

BNB came in second with an outflow of $22 million. Because of the latest price drop, the total value of ETH’s global assets under management is now about $7 billion, down from nearly $20 billion in November 2021.

Will the Fed regulate Bitcoin: what’s happening to liquidity in the market

A recent weekly CoinShares report noted that inflows into digital assets last week totaled $27 million, compared with a late-week transaction report that adjusted inflows from $12 million to $343 million the previous week. This was the largest inflow for the week since November 2021.

Current inflows were $394 million and total assets under management (AuM) returned to early June 2022 levels of $30 billion. Bitcoin inflows last week were $16 million, with the previous week’s inflows adjusted to $206 million, the largest inflow in a week since May 2022.

The research firm emphasized that Switzerland accounted for most of the recent weekly inflows. Germany and the U.S. accounted for inflows of $8 million and $9 million, respectively.

letizo News

Published

on

[PRESS RELEASE – Hamburg, Germany, April 25th, 2024]

With the latest $4.6M Strategic Round led by Borderless Capital, NATIX is set to transform driver-led data collection and driver applications with innovative web3 incentives

NATIX Network, an AI-based platform that utilizes edge computing to collect real-time geospatial data, has successfully secured $4.6 million in a strategic funding round led by Borderless Capital and co-led by Tioga Capital, completing an aggregate funding of $9.6 million. Additional investors include Escape Velocity, Big Brain, WAGMI Ventures, Inception Capital, Laser Digital, IOTEX, Moonrock Capital, Cogitent, Room 40 ventures, Veris Ventures, Future Money Group, iAngles, Gracy Chen (Managing Director at Bitget), James Parillo (General Partner at Figment), Paul Taylor (Web3 Partner at Blackrock), Vijay Pravin Maharajan (CEO at bitsCrunch), and Crypto Banter.

Big tech companies have created centralized monopolies that limit access and hinder innovation in map data. By empowering individuals through Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePINs), NATIX is driving innovation in the geospatial analytics market projected to exceed $200B by 2033.

Highlighted as one of the fastest-growing DePINs globally in Messari’s state of DePIN 2023 report, NATIX has attracted in one year over 92,000 registered drivers who have covered more than 28 million kilometers. The user-friendly design of NATIX allows anyone with a smartphone to participate without requiring special hardware. The data collected by NATIX is invaluable for urban areas, mobility firms, and the autonomous driving industry, helping them optimize operations and effectively enhance infrastructure.

NATIX’s flagship product, “Drive&,” leverages smartphone cameras and driver assistant apps such as dashcams and navigation, combined with innovative incentive mechanisms and privacy-respecting computer vision AI, to crowdsource real-time data. NATIX is set to launch its native token on Solana in Q2 of 2024 to enable new monetization avenues for drivers and in-platform governance.

“It’s great to see NATIX gaining momentum, which reflects the strong market confidence in our vision. We are committed to accessibility, allowing anyone with a vehicle and smartphone to make meaningful contributions to their urban environment,” said Alireza Ghods, NATIX’s CEO and co-founder. “Looking ahead, collaborating with leading high-performance networks like Solana and Peaq is crucial for advancing our mission.”

“NATIX is emerging as a leader in commodity DePIN, establishing a benchmark for how incentivized models can effectively operate at scale,” said Alvaro Gracia, Partner at Borderless Capital. “We’re impressed by NATIX’s innovative use of smartphone cameras and AI-accelerated chips to build a network for crowdsourced geospatial data. Not only does it enhance scalability and simplify user onboarding, but makes it easier to provide users with significant rewards and perks, boosting engagement throughout. This lays the groundwork for future innovative models in the industry.”

NATIX plans to launch its native token $NATIX on Solana in Q2 of 2024, introducing new ways to earn and enhancing platform governance and infrastructure. This launch will offer drivers premium features like airdrops, staking for data validators, and greater involvement in governance. NATIX will also leverage Peaq, a Layer-1 blockchain purpose-built for DePIN and machine RWAs (real-world assets). NATIX will use Peaq’s modular DePIN functions, multi-chain ID, and data verification, to enhance its architecture and solidify a prominent role in Peaq’s extensive DePIN ecosystem.

“We are thrilled to be partnering with Ali and his team at NATIX. With its consumer-centric approach, we believe that NATIX is uniquely positioned to continue scaling the platform and build out valuable applications for its drivers and projects in need of high-quality geospatial data,” commented Nicolas Priem, General Partner at Tioga Capital.

Drivers can download the NATIX Drive& app from the App Store or Play Store to start mapping and earning rewards.

About NATIX: 

Founded in Hamburg in 2020, NATIX is a decentralized network of smart cameras. NATIX’s AI-powered app uses the phone’s camera to detect objects, collect real-time geospatial data, and map the world around us in a completely decentralized space – no additional hardware needed. NATIX’s solution leverages edge computing to analyze the data and ensure that no personal data is collected – by design. Network contributors are rewarded with NATIX’s native cryptocurrency, $NATIX, to support better driving-assistant applications (dashcam, navigation, parking availability, etc.) and improve the mapping infrastructure around us.
