Crypto Analyst Says Bitcoin Could Hit $5K by March, Plus Ripple and XRP, Litecoin, Tron, Stellar, Zcash: Crypto News Flash
From bullish technical analysis on Bitcoin to new adoption for a number of cryptocurrencies including Ether, Stellar and Zcash, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.
Bitcoin
Crypto trader and analyst Mitoshi Kaku says he wouldn’t be surprised if Bitcoin continues to rise in the short term. Kaku told his 50,000+ following on Twitter “conditions are present” for Bitcoin to shoot to $5,000 in the next 10 days.

Ripple and XRP
Ripple has released an overview of its recent discussion about the future of digital assets with European Parliament member Eva Kaili.
Kaili says she believes blockchain and cryptocurrency will ultimately have a major impact on the economy, as people and governments get more familiar and comfortable with the technology.
“Recently, I had to send €2,000 to my mother in Greece from my account in Brussels. She needed the money that day and I couldn’t use the bank because it would take three working days. If I could send it to her using RippleNet, she would immediately receive the payment…
By its nature, blockchain technology doesn’t recognize borders. It’s unstoppable. You will be disrupted if you don’t try to understand it. Instead you need to see the potential.”
Ethereum
Opera’s mobile web browser on Android now allows users to purchase Ether (ETH).
The company partnered with the regulated crypto broker Safello to offer the cash-to-crypto service, which is currently available in Sweden.
