Bitcoin Makes Fresh Foray Near $43,000 as Cryptos Rally
Bitcoin makes fresh foray near $43,000 on Friday as crypto indicators signal a strong buying interest, gained about 5% in the last 24 hours and 10% in the last 7-days.
The total crypto market volume over the last 24 hours prints at $100.05 billion, which makes a 2.22% increase as Bitcoin dominance strengthened.
The Crypto market has gained 4% in the last 24 hours with a total market capitalisation of $1.75 trillion while Bitcoin’s dominance rises to about 50%, an increase of 0.18% over the day.
Also, the total volume in DeFi is currently $11.49 billion, 11.48% of the total crypto market 24-hour volume. The volume of all stable coins is now $79.45 billion, which is 79.41% of the total crypto market 24-hour volume.
Bitcoin’s price is currently $42,947 at the press time, according to data from various crypto exchanges monitored by MarketForces Africa.
Indicators show that the Bitcoin fund flow ratio for all exchanges is on a decline, while BTC transactions are rising, suggesting a bull market is ahead.
The indicator defines the total amount of BTC going into or out of exchanges as against the total amount of BTC transferred on the whole network.
With the help of the fund flow ratio, it becomes possible to know what percentage of BTC transactions happen outside exchanges. That is, through methods like over-the-counter (OTC) deals or P2P transfers.
Bitcoin seems to have caught a sharp uptrend as the crypto nears $43k. It’s unclear if BTC can continue the rally and go beyond this point, or whether it will crash again like at the start of the month. If the indicators discussed above are anything to go by, a bull run looks more likely at the moment.
In a related development, Binance users in Hong Kong are no longer permitted to open cryptocurrency derivatives positions, according to an announcement from the crypto exchange on Friday.
Binance announced similar measures for customers in Germany, Italy and the Netherlands a week ago amid increased regulatory scrutiny.
Hong Kong customers will have 90 days from the date of an upcoming notice to close positions in cryptocurrency derivatives such as Bitcoin futures, Binance said.
