BTC Price Nears $100K for the First Time Since February, ETH Taps Monthly Peak (Market Watch)

Bitcoin’s positive price performance, perhaps due to the aforementioned trade talks, continues in full force as the asset tapped a multi-month high of just under $100,000. The altcoins have posted notable gains as well, with ETH surging past $1,900 for the first time in over a month. BTC Aims at $100K It almost felt like a distant dream a month ago when bitcoin’s price tumbled hard to under $75,000 amid the growing tension between the US and the rest of the world. As the situation improved, or at least for countries other than China, BTC began an impressive recovery that resulted in adding $20,000 within a couple of weeks. The cryptocurrency faced some resistance at that point and couldn’t continue upwards for a while. It was stopped at $98,000 last week and pushed south to under $94,000 just two days ago. However, it bounced off and reclaimed the $96,000 support, which has now turned into resistance. Although the Fed expectedly refused to lower the interest rates, BTC’s price kept climbing in the past 24 hours, perhaps due to a promising statement from the POTUS regarding the Trade War situation and upcoming talks. As of now, bitcoin is just inches shy of $100,000, a level not seen in over three months. Its market cap has soared to $1.980 trillion, while its dominance over the alts has taken a hit and is under 62% on CG now. BTCUSD.
