At this point, it has become rather clear that the vote could go either way. •...

Someone moved over 69.369 BTC from a legacy wallet to a new native SegWit format address (a more modern format aimed at optimizing transactions by lowering their transaction fees). Everything about the wallet is a mystery: Nobody knows who owns it, who moved the funds, or why. But the wallet was as mysterious as it was popular. It was the fourth richest Bitcoin wallet...

After breaking June 2019’s 15-month high just four days ago, Bitcoin is getting closer to the hot zone once again, seeking a new high since January 2018.

It goes without saying that a lot has happened over the past four years when it comes to cryptocurrencies. We went through the market’s most parabolic cycle in 2017 and a prolonged bear market in 2018. In 2020, the market is arguably in a bullish state coming into this year’s US Presidential Elections, where Donald Trump will battle to keep his presidency against Joe Biden. At times like these, it’s worth taking a step back and see how the market looked during the previous...
