BTC Price Analysis: 2 Critical Levels to Watch for Bitcoin in the Short Term

Bitcoin’s price is consolidating in a tight range as market participants are uncertain about the future direction of the price.

Technical Analysis

The Daily Chart

On the daily chart, the price has recently rebounded from the $50K area, following the significant drop below the 200-day moving average. Currently, the market is consolidating below the moving average, which is located around the $63K mark, failing to climb back above.

Meanwhile, the $56K support level currently holds the market, preventing the price from dropping further. Therefore, a breakout from either this level or the 200-day moving average could determine the short-term price action of BTC and the crypto market.

The 4-Hour Chart

Looking at the 4-hour timeframe, the price has created a bullish flag pattern following the recent recovery from the $50K area.

Considering the price action inside the flag pattern, it could only be a matter of time before the market breaks it to the upside, which could result in a rally toward the $64K resistance zone in the short term.

On the other hand, note that things could get ugly quickly if the flag gets broken to the downside.

On-Chain Analysis

Bitcoin Short-Term Holders SOPR

While Bitcoin’s price action has been quite choppy over the last few months, analyzing what the investors are going through can be insightful.

This chart presents the Bitcoin short-term holder SOPR, which measures the aggregate ratio of profits (or losses) realized by short-term investors. Values above one show aggregate profit realization, and values below one indicate losses being realized on aggregate.

As the chart suggests, during the last few months of consolidation, the profit margins for short-term holders have been declining, and they have even been realizing losses in the previous few weeks. While unfortunate, this shakeout could be a typical sign of a price bottom in the middle of a long-term bull run. Yet, this is not guaranteed, as a wide range of factors can affect how the price will behave in the near future.

Is Ripple (XRP) Gearing up for a Christmas Rally? (Analysts Weigh in)

letizo News

Published

on

TL;DR

  • Ripple (XRP) fell from $2.50 to under $2 but recovered to $2.25, with analysts eyeing a substantial rally in the coming weeks.
  • XRP whales bought 120 million tokens over the past week, reducing supply and potentially setting the stage for a price pump.

Final Push for the Year?

Ripple’s XRP was among the leading cryptocurrencies that were the worst affected amid the latest market correction. Its price tumbled from over $2.50 on December 17 to less than $2 three days later. The bulls managed to recover some ground in the past few days, with XRP currently trading at approximately $2.25 (per CoinGecko’s data). Still, that represents a 10% decline on a weekly scale.

Despite the fluctuations and the recent pullback, many analysts remain optimistic that XRP could experience a substantial rebound in the near future. Crypto Bitlord, an X user with almost 400,000 followers, thinks “the final pump for 2024 is loading.” The market observer predicted a price rally to as high as $12 next month, suggesting that “the rise starts now.”

JAVON MARKS was also among the bulls. They touched upon XRP’s 4-hour chart to envision the confirmation of a “Hidden Bullish Divergence” that could take the valuation to over 2.90 and a subsequent jump to a new all-time high. 

For their part, CrediBULL Crypto claimed that “the XRP/BTC chart below looks absolutely fantastic” and “the most bullish-looking chart in the entire space.” As such, the analyst said they will look to open a long position once again for another trade in the following days.

Whales on the Move

The latest correction of the crypto market, which started shortly after the Fed announced another interest rate cut but also hinted at a pause of the policy for next year, seems to have been welcomed by XRP whales.

On December 20, X user Ali Martinez revealed that such large investors have purchased around 80 million tokens in the span of three days. Earlier today (December 24), he claimed that whales have stacked up on an additional 40 million coins. 

Such actions reduce the circulating supply of XRP, which could be followed by a price rally (assuming demand stays the same or heads north). Massive whale purchases may also trigger excitement among smaller investors who could also hop on the bandwagon, thus creating further upward pressure on the price.

[PRESS RELEASE – Mahe, Seychelles, December 24th, 2024]

On December 24, 2024, the BYDFi crypto exchange officially launched new tokens, including PENGU, HYPE, UFD, and USUAL. These are different Memecoins and DeFi tokens, enriching the categories of assets on the platform and giving global users more investment opportunities.

UFD’s Surge, PENGU on Hot List with $1.8B Market Cap

UFD, or Unicorn Fart Dust, is a meme coin in the Solana ecosystem that has been growing with the tag of a “social experiment.” A 54-year-old gold and silver trader was inspired to create his own meme token, UFD, based on Fartcoin, which had a market cap of $500 million. The creation of UFD symbolizes the innovative trend of the cryptocurrency market as well as the openness of the industry towards investors cutting across all age groups.

From GMGN data, on December 19th, UFD market cap has already passed $230 million , the 24-hour price increase was at 434%, and a 24-hour trading volume of $145.4 million.

According to Onchain Lens, one address that bought UFD early on changed $700 into $1.8 million in less than 7 hours. According to Lookonchain, a trader bought 12.98 million UFD tokens for 0.4 SOL two days ago. During the price spike, the trader sold over 80,000 UFD tokens twice, netting $4,500 while holding 12.9 million tokens in their account.

PENGU is the official token created by the Pudgy Penguins project, which contains 8,888 unique cartoon penguin NFTs. Each NFT generates randomly assigned qualities through the use of up to 150 hand-drawn components. These penguins have up to five different features, such as distinctive backgrounds, body shapes, clothes, and accessories.

PENGU is launched on the Solana blockchain in December 2024 with a total of 88,888,888,888 tokens. The overall market cap has crossed $1.88 billion, and the 24-hour trading volume is $360 million, with 62.86 billion tokens in circulation. The project intends to propel Web3 innovation through the Abstract public blockchain and developer incubator, and it has the support of the robust NFT community of Pudgy Penguins. Abstract recently raised $11 million, majorly coming from Peter Thiel’s Founders Fund, and hence offers a lot of support towards developing the PENGU ecosystem.

On-Chain Speed and Stable Ecosystem: Dual Innovations of HYPE and USUAL

HYPE is the native token of the decentralized derivatives protocol Hyperliquid and is the core asset of the high-performance L1 platform. With a latency of less than one second and complete transparency in its order book, trading, and settlement, Hyperliquid focuses on totally on-chain operations. The Hyperliquid platform is a rising leader in the DeFi industry, with a total asset value of $2.173 billion, according to DefiLlama data.

HYPE’s price has increased in 1345% since it was launched from $2 to $28.91. The 24-hour trade volume for HYPE has now surpassed $15 billion, according to data by @HyperliquidX, which marks a new record.

USUAL is the native governance token of the Usual protocol. It aims to create a secure and efficient stablecoin ecosystem backed by real-world assets, or RWA. Among its core functions are:

  1. Governance: Transparency in decentralized governance and community leadership is ensured by allowing holders to take part in crucial protocol decisions like earnings distribution and collateral management.
  2. Yield: The users can benefit from the RWA investments of the protocol with yields on US Treasury bonds by staking USUAL.
  3. Stablecoin Ecosystem: supports the main products of the protocol, being USD0, a stablecoin, which RWA supports and USD0++, a variant of liquid staking, and holders can share revenue via management or staking.

It also ties the issuance of USUAL tokens to total value locked, where increases in TVL reduce the token supply, thus constituting a deflationary mechanism that can boost long-term value. As of December 18, USD0 minting was seen reaching a record-breaking 190 million units with the total supply rising beyond 1 billion units netting 136 million units. It can be established that the high level of capital attraction of the Usual procedure is by reaching the Treasury revenue of $5.89 million. The increase of USD0 and USD0++ will enhance TVL by raising USUAL’s scarcity and value appreciation. At the moment of writing, the token’s price is $1.39, up 34.2% over the previous day. At $838,695,117, the trade volume is more than it has been in the past.

Meanwhile, BYDFi has simultaneously launched additional tokens, including FUEL, VANA, SEND, and ARCSOL. Users can visit the BYDFi official website or the BYDFi app to stay updated on the latest market trends and detailed information about these tokens.
