Crypto Legend Who Called Bitcoin Crash Reveals Bullish TA, Plus Ripple and XRP, Ethereum, EOS, Litecoin, Tron: Crypto News Flash
From the potential for a Bitcoin comeback to an upcoming announcement from IBM and Stellar, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.
Bitcoin
Veteran technical trader Peter Brandt, who accurately predicted the crash of Bitcoin in January of 2018, is drawing a parallel between the current market and BTC’s price action from late 2013 to early 2015.
The chart below marks a series of peaks and valleys that look remarkably similar, suggesting that if history repeats itself, the year-long bear market may be coming to an end.

Meanwhile, crypto analyst Joseph Young says that although the price of BTC remains in decidedly bearish territory, three factors could signal the market has reached a bottom.
Crypto is still deep in bear market as Bitcoin is at $4k and it's too early tell but a strong case can be made that it reached a bottom.
1. Volume recovering (BTC $8 billion daily)
2. CME BTC futures record high volume
3. Institutions investing in crypto ($237M in Grayscale)
