@CryptoMasterMiner 1 August 2022 more from that month

Bitcoin Weekly (8/1/2022)

Bitcoin (BTC) ended July and entered August today with a major battle between the bulls and the bears taking place. The largest cryptocurrency ended the week at its highest point since mid-June after finishing off its best month of the year in July and overall the best month since last October up around 16.95%. That looks even better when you consider the prior three months returns with April at -17.3%, May at -15.6% and June at -37.3%. Bitcoin once again reached the critical 200-week moving average and the realized price, both important milestones. The key now will be to continue to hit green weekly candles without going back below those levels. The slew of earnings reports from technology giants last week such as Amazon, Apple, Google and Facebook along with the Federal Reserve's 75 basis point interest rate hike did not slow down Bitcoins positive momentum. Many analyst, however, are still convinced this is simply a "Bear Market Rally" and more pain is in store ahead. While Bitcoin did reach the $24.5K level last week, $24K still seems to be a pretty strong resistance level. If BTC is able to break through and stay above that figure it could be posed to go higher and threaten as much as $28K. That may be difficult as Bitcoin had been in an oversold position and was due to creep back up to its current price point. The Crypto fear and greed index, highlighted below, is at 33 up three points from last week despite the recent run up and remains in the "fear" range for the second straight week.  **Ten Must-Read Bitcoin Articles** The Battle For Bitcoin: The Network’s First Major Civil War (Bitcoin Magazine) https://bitcoinmagazine.com/business/the-first-major-bitcoin-civil-war El Salvador's Finance Minister Says Bitcoin Adoption is 'Gaining Ground': Report (CoinDesk) https://www.coindesk.com/policy/2022/07/29/el-salvadors-finance-minister-says-bitcoin-adoption-is-gaining-ground-report/ 'Bitcoin Valley’ Opens In Honduras Town In Hopes Of Attracting Tourists (Bitcoinist) https://bitcoinist.com/bitcoin-valley-opens-in-honduras-town/ Craig Wright wins ‘only nominal damages’ of £1 in bitcoin libel case (The Guardian) https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/aug/01/craig-wright-wins-only-nominal-damages-of-1-in-bitcoin-libel-case Bitcoin sites are moving to IPv6, and you should too (Coin Geek) https://coingeek.com/bitcoin-sites-are-moving-to-ipv6-and-you-should-too/ A publicly traded bitcoin whale's glaring (paper) loss (Axios) https://www.axios.com/2022/08/01/bitcoin-microstrategy-whale-bitcoin-loss Bitcoin Miners’ earnings dropped 16.7% from June to July (Watcher News) https://watcher.guru/news/bitcoin-miners-earnings-dropped-16-7-from-june-to-july-details Why Athletes Are Taking Compensation in Bitcoin (CoinDesk) https://www.coindesk.com/layer2/sportsweek/2022/07/29/why-athletes-are-taking-compensation-in-bitcoin/ Bitcoin Halving (Forbes Advisor) https://www.forbes.com/advisor/investing/cryptocurrency/bitcoin-halving/ Bitcoin and Nasdaq the worst performing assets in 2022 yet some opportunities remains (Finbold) https://finbold.com/bitcoin-and-nasdaq-the-worst-performing-assets-in-2022-yet-some-opportunity-remains/ **Bitcoin Price Statistics** *(as of 8/1/2022, 6:00pm EST)* Bitcoin Price = $22,027 Last Week = $21,816 Weekly High = $24,581 Weekly Low = $20,783 Market Cap = $437,926,417,844 Market Cap Dominance = 39.544% All-Time High = $69,044.67 *on November 10, 2021* **Bitcoin Fun Fact of the Week** BUSTED!
