bitcoin Cash Price Analysis

bitcoin cash price recently moved above the $130 pivot level with a positive tone against the US Dollar. The BCH/USD pair even moved above the $132 resistance, opening the doors for a push towards the $135 resistance area in the near term.

The $135 resistance area is likely to act as a strong hurdle for buyers. If there is an upside break, the price could test the $140 level. On the downside, the main supports for buyers are near $130 and $128.

Stellar (XLM), EOS and Tron (TRX) Price Analysis

EOS price recovered nicely from the $3.50 support level. It recently broke the $3.55 and $3.60 resistance levels. It is currently consolidating above $3.60 and it could revisit the $3.75 resistance in the near term.

Stellar price performed nicely and gained traction above the $0.1000 resistance level. XLM price traded above the $0.1050 resistance and traded close to the $0.1100 barrier. The next key resistances are near $0.1120 and $0.1135. The main support on the downside is at $0.1000, below which it could test the $0.0920 level.

Tron price moved above the $0.0220 resistance and it is slowly gaining momentum. TRX is about to test the $0.0230 resistance, above which the next stop for buyers could be $0.0235. Sellers are likely to take a stand near the $0.0235 and $0.0240 resistance levels.

Looking at the total cryptocurrency market cap hourly chart, there was a decent rebound from the $127.0B support level. However, the market cap is facing a strong resistance near the $129.0B and $130.0B levels. A successful close above the $130.0B level could open the doors for a solid rally in the crypto market in the near term. On the other hand, if there is a downside correction, the $127.0B and $126.5B levels might act a supports. The main support is near the $125.0B level. In the short term, there could be more sideways movements in bitcoin, Ethereum, EOS, ripple, LTC, bitcoin cash, XLM, TRX, and other altcoins in the near term before the next move.

Halong’s DragonMint Bitcoin Miner Set To Shatter Bitmains Mining Monopoly

The announced Halong DragonMint bitcoin Miner is set to rock the bitcoin mining scene with its high spec and price, putting it in direct competition with the market leaders Bitmain with their Antminer hardware.


The Halong Mining announcement today focused on their DragonMint miner series, with their flagship model set to be the DragonMint 16T. The unit’s ambitious price and specs should see them taking on the Bitmain Tech mining giants.

The DragonMint 16T is rated at 16TH (Terahashes) and looks to be priced at $1,350, giving it the specs and price to aggressively compete with Bitmain’s Antimer S9 which, in comparison, only offers 14TH’s and currently retails at $3,000 – over twice the price of the new DragonMint. The news has been greeted with cautious excitement that the mining world could finally see an end to what has been Bitmain’s mining monopoly.

The announcement states:

The DragonMint 16T miner is the world’s most efficient bitcoin miner, running faster and cooler than any competing miners. It’s the culmination of over 12 months research and development which has resulted in major advancements in mining technology including a brand new generation of ASIC mining chips. The DM8575 ASIC runs at a staggering 85GH per chip with power efficiency of around 0.075J/GH.

The Online Tease and Announcement

The announcement was preceded by a brief online tease (see above) of an image of a bitcoin fireball lying beneath the cool ice with the final reveal coming barely 20 minutes later. The announcement addresses the key issues for bitcoin mining – power and cooling.

bitcoin was initially mined on GPUs and FPGA before moving into the world of specialist ASIC chips as used in the DragonMint 16T. The dominance of Bitmain in the Bitcoin hardware mining sector has gone fairly unchallenged,  leading to what has become a more centralized operation, with mining or hash power being held in increasingly smaller hands.

bitcoin’s decentralized dream is challenged by forces monopolizing what is essentially the means of bitcoin production, but Halong’s affordable model, with its top-level specs, have at least got their targets set on putting bitcoin’s mining capability back into a wider set of hands.

See a demo of the DragonMint 16T in action below:

Manufacturing these units at scale, to cost and to schedule could prove to be quite a herculean challenge for Halong. There is currently no word on when the units will be ready to ship

Are you mining or looking at mining bitcoin, this looks like a possibly cheaper entry. Can Halong deliver? Let us know what you think in the comments below.
