Аналитики платформы Outlier Ventures заявили, что халвинг перестал влиять на биткоин. По мнению экспертов, 2016 год был последним, когда сокращение награды майнерам оказало фундаментальное воздействие на цену первой криптовалюты.
Аналитики платформы Outlier Ventures заявили, что халвинг перестал влиять на биткоин. По мнению экспертов, 2016 год был последним, когда сокращение награды майнерам оказало фундаментальное воздействие на цену первой криптовалюты.
Основательница и управляющий партнер американской инвестиционной компании Fairlead Strategies заявила, что биткоин может продемонстрировать высокую волатильность во второй половине 2024 года. Возможно краткосрочное падение стоимости первой криптовалюты до $51 000.
Аналитический сервис Arkham Intelligence предоставил данные, согласно которым на балансе властей Германии находится 39 826 BTC на общую сумму $2,2 млрд. Это около 9% суточного объема биржевой торговли биткоинами ($25,3 млрд).
В июне курс биткоина упал на 6,96%, а эфира — на 8,68%. Снижение котировок крупнейших криптовалют последовало после майского роста, говорят цифры аналитической платформы CoinGlass.
Соучредитель торговой платформы Material Indicators спрогнозировал сильные колебания цены первой криптовалюты. По мнению эксперта, биткоин восстанавливает свои позиции после падения.
Аналитический сервис Arkham сообщил, что случайно дал ложное оповещение о движении BTC с кошельков правительства США и ныне несуществующей криптобиржи MtGox.
