Bitcoin price just set a new yearly high after pushing above $12,000 and may be gearing up for an explosive move higher. The first-ever cryptocurrency may be finally entering a new uptrend.

Simon Peters, market analyst: Bitcoin Teases Us At $12,000  Suffice it to say, it was a busy week, with mixed performance in equity markets and odd – but not unpromising – movements for bitcoin. The FTSE All-Share index and the STOXX600 both recorded steady rises, while the S&P500, which started the week at 3,352, took a turn for the worse on Wednesday. After its drop to 3,335, it has since recovered to 3,372. Bitcoin broke through $12,000 on Monday, only to suffer a significant fall to $11,275 by Wednesday morning.

Leading cryptocurrency Bitcoin is cementing its position as a mainstream macro asset. As cryptocurrency was advertised on TV screens nationwide last week, and in the pages of the Financial Times, the bitcoin adoption rush has intensified.

Even former skeptic George Ball, chairman at investment firm Sanders Morris Harris, has advised investors that Bitcoin is a safe bet. These fundamental developments have

Bitcoin is surging higher after holding in the high-$11,000s for a number of days. As of this article’s writing, the leading cryptocurrency trades for $12,150. Although this is not much higher than the breakout zone at $12,000, analysts are optimistic about what’s next for the market. This rally was predicated on a surge of spot market volume, adding fuel to the case for upside. BTC is expected to move to $13,000 next, which is around where the next level of macro resistance lies. Bitcoin’s ongoing rally seems to be influenced

While Bitcoin has performed well in recent weeks, some altcoins have done even better. Take the example of Chainlink (LINK), which has almost doubled in the past month.

Despite the drop, an indicator predicts a bearish reversal for altcoins. Bitcoin continuing to undergo volatility could further suppress the bullish altcoin narrative. Analysts are currently expecting more BTC volatility in the days ahead, citing indicators like the

Blockchain smart contract network Qtum has become the latest ecosystem to woo Ethereum developers. Unlike many of its rivals, however, Qtum can boast compatibility with Ethereum’s EVM, meaning developers can port projects directly over.

Qtum is not the first blockchain platform to lay down the red carpet to DeFi devs; Matic Network recently issued a similar call, with a generous grant program
