Bitcoin Weekly (1/9/2023)

**Bitcoin Weekly - Edition 41** Bitcoin (BTC) had a decent start to 2023 last week rising a cool $1K week over week. The largest cryptocurrency is now sitting at its highest level since mid-December when we were all still hoping for a "Santa Rally" that never materialized. Hello $17K! The bulls have the lead so far this new year and that is a welcomed changing of the guards as of late. Bitcoin and the rest of the crypto market continue to ride the same wave as US stocks and the rally this past Friday helped push prices higher. Unlike the previous week, stagnant BTC prices would be followed by a quick drop due to bad news. This past week saw BTC holding and then taking jumps higher. There appears to be a slight shift in investor sentiment that the Fed will soon stop raising interest rates and this underlying mood is having a positive effect on Bitcoin's price. With both job creation and wage growth slowing in the United States, inflation should slow in conjunction. We will see how the recent run-up will do when the December 2022 Consumer Price Index (CPI) figures are released on Thursday. As of late, the CPI has been in decline, a signal that the Federal Reserve's rate hikes have helped fight inflation. Before the CPI release, our old friend Fed Chairman Jerome Powell has something to tell us on Tuesday. When he speaks, the markets often fall so brace yourself for the reaction he gets. The Crypto fear and greed index highlighted below, is at 25 and down two points from last week and moving into the "extreme fear" range. **Ten Must-Read Bitcoin Articles This Week** Crypto Markets Analysis: Falling Inflation Expectations Might Signal Bullish Turn for Bitcoin (CoinDesk) https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2023/01/09/crypto-markets-analysis-falling-inflation-expectations-might-signal-bullish-turn-for-bitcoin/ Bitcoin Whales Sleep As Transfers Make Only 19% Of Volume (Bitcoinist) https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-whales-sleep-10m-transfers-19-total-volume/ Bitcoin mining stocks surge with broader market as traders see less aggressive Fed (Cointelegraph) https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-mining-stocks-surge-with-broader-market-as-traders-see-less-aggressive-fed The Great Bitcoin Debate: Sound Money or Tulip Mania (Kitco) https://www.kitco.com/news/2023-01-09/The-Great-Bitcoin-Debate-Sound-Money-or-Tulip-Mania.html To Become Money, Bitcoin Requires Integration With New Social System Technology (Bitcoin Magazine) https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/bitcoin-must-integrate-as-a-new-innovative-social-system Bitcoin's energy efficiency will increase with adoption (Crypto Slate) https://cryptoslate.com/bitcoins-energy-efficiency-will-increase-with-adoption-proponent-says/ Understanding How Different Industries Have Integrated the Use of Bitcoin into Their Services (TechSpective) https://techspective.net/2023/01/09/understanding-how-different-industries-have-integrated-the-use-of-bitcoin-into-their-services/ Bitcoin Creates Hope For A Generation Found Hopeless (Bitcoin Magazine) https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/bitcoin-is-hope-for-gen-z You Can Now Live In This Swiss City Solely On Bitcoin (Bitcoin Magazine) https://bitcoinmagazine.com/culture/live-in-swiss-city-solely-on-bitcoin On Bitcoin & Taxes: 2023 Might See Crypto Taxed And Here’s Why (Bitcoinist) https://bitcoinist.com/on-bitcoin-taxes-in-2023/ **Bitcoin Price Statistics** *(as of 1/8/2023, weekly close)* Bitcoin Price = $17,119 Last Week = $16,618 Weekly High = $17,390 Weekly Low = $16,980 Market Cap = $331,347,080,743 Market Cap Dominance =37.493% All-Time High = $69,044.67 *on November 10, 2021* statistics provided by CoinGecko **Bitcoin Fun Fact of the Week** The private key is the only "proof" of ownership that the Bitcoin network recognizes **Bitcoin Mining Statistics** Miners = 5,321,099 Hashrate = 263.69 EH/s Difficulty = 35.36T Emission (24hr) = 981.3 BTC Circulating Supply = 19.25M (91.7%) statistics provided by MiningPoolStats **Crypto Fear & Greed Index**
