As Bitcoin (BTC) hovers near $100,000, momentum indicators suggest the asset will likely see further upside beyond this much-anticipated level. In this case, a key indicator to watch is the Relative Strength Index (RSI), which, at around 82, suggests that Bitcoin is in the overbought zone. However, the RSI remains below the extreme highs observed during Barchart’s over the last two years, as highlighted by Barchart’s analysis on November 23. Although there are fears of retracing, the current RSI reading suggests that Bitcoin will potentially see more capital inflow before any notable corrections. Bitcoin whales on a buying spree Already,…

Elon Musk has admitted that his latest gig as the leader of Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency—a project humorously titled D.O.G.E—might not deliver on its ambitious promises. Elon, who initially said he could slash $2 trillion from the federal budget, called the figure a “best-case outcome” during an interview on X, formerly Twitter. The eccentric billionaire told political analyst Mark Penn that the $2 trillion goal wasn’t entirely out of reach but said, “We’ve got a good shot at $1 trillion.” Critics were quick to remind him that the entire discretionary budget is only $1.7 trillion, making his original…
Raoul Pal, CEO of Real Vision, has publicly acknowledged that he was wrong about XRP, a cryptocurrency he had previously criticized for underperforming. This comes amid a surprising turn of events where XRP is now trading above $2, transforming from an underperforming asset to one of the best-performing cryptocurrencies in just under a month. During this time, it has surpassed BNB and Solana in market rankings, including the largest stablecoin USDT, now standing just behind Ethereum. “XRP Warriors, I was wrong,” Pal said in a post on X today. For context, in August, Pal had advised investors to consider moving…
Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson is facing criticism after his recent statements about HEX, PulseChain, PulseX, and their founder, Richard Heart. During an interview with FOX Business contributor David Gokhshtein, Hoskinson talked about the new Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and its chair, Paul Atkins. He discussed how the SEC might affect the crypto market. Hoskinson highlighted that while the enforcement division consists of civil servants, the Commissioners and the Chair are elected politicians. Because of this, any change in political leadership takes time to reach the bureaucratic level. However, once these politicians make their will known, Hoskinson expects the SEC…

A proposal for the United States to amass a million Bitcoin sounds like something pulled out of a nerd’s wildest dreams, but it’s an actual idea on the table. A few months ago, Senator Cynthia Lummis of Wyoming dropped a bill that aims to create a “strategic bitcoin reserve.” Her plan? Get the Treasury and Federal Reserve to buy a million Bitcoin over five years and stash it for at least 20 more. If passed, the program would essentially transform Bitcoin from a decentralized experiment to a federally endorsed hedge against… well, everything. For Bitcoin holders—hodlers, as they call themselves—this…
