Since its birth in 2009, Bitcoin has been on a remarkable run. The cryptocurrency was at first a currency for the fringe — used by those that wanted to bypass the pitfalls of traditional payment solutions, wanted to make a bet on the future of fintech, or wanted to make a statement against the fiat…
Around three weeks back, altcoins suddenly started to rip higher; Ethereum gained 10% in a single day, Litecoin rocketed up by 8%, XRP gained some 20-30% in three days’ time, and so on and so forth. But since then, this odd trend in the crypto market, which has been dominated by Bitcoin for the better…
Another week, another of Crypto Tidbits. This week, Bitcoin traded within a relatively wide range — $8,200 to $8,900 — but is closing at a very similar level to last week. Analysts are currently divided over what this consolidation means for the cryptocurrency market’s short-term future. Price action (or lack thereof) aside, this week was hectic…
Analysts and investors alike have long looked towards Bitcoin’s halving as a potential catalyst that could spark the next massive parabolic rally and usher in a new era of growth for BTC and the aggregated crypto markets.

But according to a fractal that appears shockingly similar to Bitcoin’s bear market bottom, the crypto asset has already bottomed and is about to explode back up to…
Cryptography consists of studying, developing, and practicing techniques for securing data from third-parties. The practice led to Bitcoin and other crypto addresses being difficult to remember strings of letters and numbers, as a way to keep them secure and prevent unwanted access. But now there’s a way to create vanity addresses for Bitcoin and other…
A new data set has emerged that shows the growth in Bitcoin addresses holding more than 1000 BTC, and it is currently experiencing a new high following the bear market. But what does this information mean? Was smart money buying up Bitcoin from retail investors dumping their crypto at a loss? Or is the HODL…
