From yesterday’s low at $131,145,945,344 the price evaluation of the cryptocurrency market cap has been increasing and it came up to $134,655,000,000 at its highest point today.

Since then the evaluation has retraced as it encountered resistance and is currently sitting slightly lower than on its highest point today which could mean a minor retracement before a bit more upside.

From yesterday’s low at $3907 the price of Bitcoin has increased to $3976 at its highest point yesterday from where the price started declining again and came down to $3925 at its lowest point today still making a higher low than yesterday. The price is currently sitting at $3953 and is still in an upward trajectory which is why today we could see further increase in the price of bitcoin as the price is still trending upward.

On the 15-min chart, we can see that the price fell to the 0.618 Fibonacci level again today where it found support as it bounced from it recovering to the levels from which the decrease was previously made. This is most likely the 4th Micro wave out of the five-wave move to the upside which the C wave from the ABC correction to the upside. This would be the continuation of the increase we have seen on the 9th of March which is why another minor increase would be expected from here to the vicinity of the horizontal resistance at $3994.4 where the price is most likely to retest the resistance level again.

After this increase ends I would be expecting one more Minuette ABC correction to the downside as the Minute X wave should complete three consecutive ABC corrections. This third ABC would bring the price of bitcoin lower than the current levels potentially ending on some of the horizontal support levels from the prior horizontal range out of which the lower one is at around $3866. We could see it ending on the ascending trendline which is the support line from the ascending triangle in which the price action is from 15th of December last year but when it ends I would be expecting another increase to the upside above the $3994.4 resistance, potentially ending at around $4200.

On the 15-min chart, we can see a five-wave impulsive move played out with the current upside movement being the last increase as the Subminute wave 5 should develop fully. As the first wave got extended and the 3rd cannot be the shortest according to the rules of the EWP we could be seeing the completion of the 5th Subminute impulse as it would be the shortest.

Zooming out to the 4-hour chart you can see that according to my count this was the Y wave from a correction to the upside of a higher degree which means that now that the impulsive move to the upside ended so did the Y wave which means that from here more downside would be expected for the price bitcoin Diamond.

As the Y wave has completed the third wave we might see an extension with two more waves which could mean that the expected downside move would be correctional and that there is another increase in which case I would be looking at the prior high level at $1.155 where the W wave’s ending point is for a potential target but since this is only correctional when it ends I would be expecting a trend continuation

Conclusion

The market has been moving sideways still but we have seen some bullish price action in the last 24 hours. Now that the price of bitcoin getting close to its significant resistance and that the market made some recovery from yesterday’s low most likely we are to see a minor retracement before a corrective increase.

The price of bitcoin is expected to increase a bit further from the current level, reaching its significant resistance at $3994.4 before a minor retracement to the $3866 before going up again to its most significant resistance area at around $4200.

More Mainstream Use Cases Needed to Secure Bitcoin's Legitimacy

LTB: Coin Center

Blockchain technologies like the one that underpins bitcoin are gaining wide acceptance across industry sectors from finance to healthcare to real estate. bitcoin itself, however, is still struggling with legitimacy and regulation issues. Just this week, the fact that bitcoin was chosen as the payment method for the latest round of global data ransomware attacks, WanaCrypt0r 2.0 malware, has underscored the negative perception that still swirls around the cryptocurrency.

On the most recent episode of Epicenter, co-hosts Brian Fabian Crain and Meher Roy interviewed  Peter Van Valkenburgh, Director of Research of Coin Center, a nonprofit research and advocacy center focused on the public policy issues facing decentralized financial networks like bitcoin and Ethereum. During the interview, Van Valkenburgh explained how bitcoin is currently dealing with its branding issue; how Coin Center is laying the groundwork for future discussions about bitcoin regulation; and how more mainstream uses of the technology would be helpful for discussions around regulation.

bitcoin’s Branding Issue

Van Valkenburgh noted how Coin Center has struggled with the issues around bitcoin as a brand, as many in the mainstream associate the digital currency with the collapse of Mt. Gox and drug sales on darknet markets.

“We take a lot of meetings with congressional staff, we take meetings with regulators at [the United States] Treasury, and oftentimes we can’t take credit for those meetings because a congressman doesn’t want it, necessarily, to immediately hit the news that he’s meeting with the bitcoin people,” said Van Valkenburgh.

From Van Valkenburgh’s viewpoint, networks like bitcoin are used to “decentralize power” and push security to end users’ devices. “That means you lose the choke point for regulation because the choke point for regulation is the bank, the choke point for regulation is the centralized intermediary,” he explained.

Van Valkenburgh went on to note that, since control over these networks is pushed to the edges, the technology can potentially be used for illicit activities.

Laying the Groundwork for a Future Debate

One of the illicit activities that regulators and journalists sometimes associate with bitcoin is terrorism. Although there haven’t been any major terrorist attacks funded through bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency up to this point, that we know of, Van Valkenburgh pointed out that it’s “possible that one day somebody will use these networks in a meaningful way” to finance that sort of activity.

According to Van Valkenburgh, one of Coin Center’s main goals is to prepare for the potential conversation that would take place within government in the aftermath of such an event.

“What will be the government response when this tool is used in a way that a lot of people get upset about?” asked Van Valkenburgh. “Our metric of success, I think truly, would be a reasonable response to clear evidence of illicit uses of the technology — like dangerous, illicit uses of the technology.”

For Van Valkenburgh, success for Coin Center in such a scenario would mean the prevention of a push for an instant ban of bitcoin and other related technologies, along with software developers not getting arrested as part of the process. Coin Center is effectively laying the groundwork to make sure these future conversations remain reasonable.

“This is a technology and, just like all technologies, it can be used for good and for evil,” said Van Valkenburgh. “We are not, as Americans, in the business of banning technologies. We’re not in the business of banning speech.”

More “Legitimate” Use Cases Needed

Going back to the aforementioned branding issue, one possible way to improve the outlook on bitcoin from a regulatory perspective is to create more mainstream use cases for the technology. This point was originally brought up by Crain.

“If you have stuff where there is 50 million users and they are like, ‘This thing is great. It really makes something possible that I couldn’t do before. It’s a totally legitimate thing, and this is amazing.’ It would be so much harder if it’s still this kind of fringe thing,” said Crain.

Van Valkenburgh agreed with Crain’s assessment and continued, “You need the legitimate use cases to emerge. You need to show that you’re making a positive impact on the world — that it’s not just a bunch of people getting rich off of token sales or people using underground drug markets.”

Van Valkenburgh added that Coin Center hopes to clear the way, at least from a regulatory perspective, for these sort of mainstream applications to appear. “The longer we go without more mainstream, legitimate uses, the more danger we’re in,” he added.

As far as mainstream uses of bitcoin today, Van Valkenburgh pointed to the financial autonomy enabled by the technology, and he identified WikiLeaks’s use of Bitcoin to get around a financial blockade back in 2011 as a specific example. However, Van Valkenburgh also added that this example has become more politically charged since allegations of WikiLeaks working directly with Russia have appeared.
