Diplômé de Sciences Po Toulouse et titulaire d'une certification consultant blockchain délivrée par Alyra, j'ai rejoint l'aventure Cointribune en 2019. Convaincu du potentiel de la blockchain pour transformer de nombreux secteurs de l'économie, j'ai pris l'engagement de sensibiliser et d'informer le grand public sur cet écosystème en constante évolution. Mon objectif est de permettre à chacun de mieux comprendre la blockchain et de saisir les opportunités qu'elle offre. Je m'efforce chaque jour de fournir une analyse objective de l'actualité, de décrypter les tendances du marché, de relayer les dernières innovations technologiques et de mettre en perspective les enjeux économiques et sociétaux de cette révolution en marche.
According to Ki Young Ju, founder of CryptoQuant, the Bitcoin bull cycle would multiply its price by three to five, compared to more than ten during some historical phases. This forecast is based on less extreme volatility and significant institutional presence, but it does not represent a guaranteed price target.
In the week ending September 20, the average volume of XRP transferred to the Binance exchange platform reached 21.7 million tokens, 663% higher than its quarterly reference. Meanwhile, XRP surpassed $1.50, however, these inflows are not sufficient to confirm an increase towards $1.80.
Bitcoin has just held above $86,000 this Tuesday, after many weeks of strong progress supported by the return of appetite for risk. Various observers see in this scenario the end of "crypto winter," however, short position liquidations and monetary uncertainties still call for caution.
Bitcoin nearly reached $87000 before falling back to around $85000, after a rise largely amplified by the liquidation of short positions. About one billion dollars of leveraged bets were immediately closed in the crypto market.
BitMine has just acquired 27562 additional Ethers for nearly 75.2 million dollars, bringing its treasury to about 6 million ETH. Thus, the company is approaching its goal of owning 5% of the total supply of the world's second largest crypto.
This Monday, the price of the main crypto approached 86000 dollars, its highest level since the end of January. However, this recovery remains imperfect, as US spot demand has not yet shown strength comparable to that of the price.
Scheduled for September 24 in Washington, the Trump-Xi summit is set to address tariffs, artificial intelligence, and sensitive technologies. This meeting would extend the trade détente, however many Chinese commitments remain contested by the United States.
Ethereum staking regains real momentum, with thirteen times more ETH awaiting entry than exit. This imbalance potentially reduces the available supply, without by itself guaranteeing a price increase.
Strategy's bitcoin acquisition could resume after a two-week break, according to a new message from Michael Saylor. Indeed, the company's executive chairman broadcast the group's purchase chart with a reference to the orange color, however no transaction is yet confirmed.
According to Jurrien Timmer, global macroeconomics director at Fidelity, the bitcoin bull cycle could restart for four years. His arguments are based on BTC's resistance above $60,000 and the improvement of its performance against gold.
The Graham law now offers Donald Trump a new economic arsenal against Russia and other countries that finance its energy sector. Enacted on September 18, this legal standard authorizes tariffs that can reach 100% against the main buyers of Russian oil and gas.
While Bitcoin has just crossed back above the $80,000 threshold and capital is starting to flow back into altcoins, XRP has gained 6.93%. Behind this rise, a scenario closely watched by investors is unfolding. Indeed, XRP's moving averages are approaching a likely golden cross. This movement remains to be confirmed, however, various technical indicators now add more weight to the hypothesis of a sustainable rebound.
Bitcoin has just marked a new reversal. A few days after a drop below 75000 dollars, the leading crypto rebounded to 81636 dollars, its highest level since September 4. Indeed, this recovery comes after a week marked by the failure of the CLARITY Act, Federal Reserve decisions, and new regulatory signals from Washington. Behind this increase, another phenomenon grabbed attention: the return of spot demand was accompanied by a massive liquidation of short positions.
In Europe, the Binance case is taking an unexpected institutional turn. According to an investigation by the Wall Street Journal, Christine Lagarde is said to have personally weighed in to block the obtaining of a MiCA license by the exchange in Greece. This intervention is all the more sensitive as the ECB has no official power to issue these approvals. Two major issues emerge behind this showdown: the place of dollar-backed stablecoins in Europe and the future architecture of crypto supervision within the Union.
The market would reserve an unexpected paradox for bitcoin. Indeed, the distrust that still surrounds it would become a supporting factor if investors reduce their hedges. In a note, JPMorgan analysts led by Nikolaos Panigirtzoglou compared the recent dynamics of bitcoin to those of gold. Their interpretation relies on three elements: flows to ETFs, institutional positioning in futures markets, and the level of hedging around the main listed funds. Thus, gold appears more advanced in its recovery, while bitcoin retains more catching-up potential.
