Market Moves by Omkar Godbole Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High Above $63.1K The price of bitcoin set a new all-time high Tuesday morning, the day before U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase’s highly anticipated listing on Nasdaq.
Bitcoin prices on April 12-13, 2021 (Source: CoinDesk) Bitcoin reached $63,191.37, topping the previous peak price of $61,453 observed about a month ago, as per CoinDesk 20 data.The rally comes after weeks of bitcoin (BTC) trading sluggishly in a narrow range below $60,000. "Cryptocurrency markets are showing robust strength ahead of the Coinbase IPO as bitcoin moves into the all-time high territory," Matthew Dibb, COO and co-founder of Stack Funds, told CoinDesk. Analysts projections for COIN's listing are ranging from $19 billion to $230 billion, as discussed last week. COIN shares will provide traditional investors exposure to a crypto platform that earns money from fees while avoiding the volatility and risk of crypto assets themselves. "Coinbase will be a lower beta play," Delphi Digital's Kevin Kelly told Bloomberg. The exchange recently disclosed Q1 revenue growth of 840% year-on-year, blowing past analysts' estimates by a big margin. Bitcoin's latest rally is accompanied by record highs in ether (ETH), the second-largest cryptocurrency by market value, and crypto exchange Binance's BNB token. Alternative cryptocurrencies, in general, have performed better than bitcoin in recent weeks, pushing the latter's market dominance to two-year lows near 55%, according to data source TradingView.

Technician's Take by Damanick Dantes Bitcoin Breaks to All-Time High, Ending Three Months of Consolidation
Bitcoin (BTC) is currently trading around $62,600, after pushing early Tuesday to a new all-time high above $63,000. After three months of consolidation, buyers have finally regained strength. Support is seen around the breakout zone of $60,000, which should be monitored for confirmation. Four-hour chart shows BTC breakout to all-time high with rising support (Source: TradingView) The broader uptrend in BTC remains intact despite slowing momentum on the daily price chart. Buyers have remained active at higher support levels since March, although profit taking at intraday overbought zones signaled a period of indecision.BTC has maintained trend support on both the four-hour and daily chart, which should trigger upside volatility. BTC is now overbought on intraday charts and could remain in that phase during strong breakouts. BTC still faces less upside momentum on the weekly chart, which continues to diverge from the near two-fold price increase since January. However, given the breakout, resistance is now seen around $68,000-$70,000. Original story found here: Bitcoin Breaks to All-Time High, Ending Three Months of Consolidation
