 ETH remains well bid and it seems like buyers could push the price towards $180 and $182. Ethereum Price Analysis Yesterday, we saw a strong rebound in Ethereum price above the $162 and $165 resistance levels against the US Dollar.
 The ETH/USD pair even tested the $170 resistance level and settled above 100 hourly simple moving average.


 Finally, the price broke the $169 and $170 resistance levels to extend the rally towards the $175 level (as discussed in yesterday’s analysis).
The price tested the $174 level and it is currently consolidating gains below $175. An initial support is near $172 and the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $164 swing low to $174 high. On the downside, there are many supports near the $170 and $169 levels (the previous resistances).



 There is also a solid bullish trend line formed with support at $168 on the hourly chart of ETH/USD. The trend line coincides with the 50% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $164 swing low to $174 high.
 Therefore, if the price corrects below $172, it is likely to find support near the $168 support area.
 On the upside, an initial resistance is near the $175 level.
 Should Ether buyers push the price above the $175 resistance, there could be a strong move towards the $180 and $182 resistance levels.
 If buyers remain in action, there is even a chance of a run towards the $190 resistance area.






Looking at the chart, Ethereum price trading nicely above the $168, $169 and $170 support levels.
 As long as there is no close below $168, the price remains in a positive zone.
 Below $168, the next support is at $164 and the 100 hourly simple moving average.
 The overall price action is positive and the recent break above $170 suggests that bears are clearly struggling to push the price lower.

 A change to the structure of proposed spot bitcoin ETFs would enable authorized participants (APs) to create new shares in the fund with cash, rather than only with cryptocurrency, essentially opening the door to banks who cannot hold crypto directly. A change to the mechanics of BlackRock's proposed spot bitcoin (BTC) ETF opens the door for Wall Street banks, which face restrictions holding cryptocurrencies, to play a key role. BlackRock recently made it so authorized participants – a vital part of the ETF ecosystem – will be able to create new fund shares with cash, rather than only with cryptocurrency.   As highly regulated U.S. banks are unable to hold bitcoin themselves, this set-up would enable the likes of JPMorgan or Goldman Sachs – firms with some of the largest balance sheets in the world – to act as APs to BlackRock's ETF.

What’s Causing the Current Bitcoin Crash and How Low Can it Go

Image
 Bitcoin’s price has been very bullish over the last couple of months. However, it is finally showing subtle signs of correction today. Therefore, it is worth analyzing the charts for potential support levels. Technical Analysis Bitcoin Price Analysis: The Daily Chart  On the daily chart, the price has been blowing past resistance levels one by one. Yet, today’s action has been very bearish, as the daily candle looks very bearish.   The price has dropped around 10% today before rebounding from the $40K support level. In case this level holds, it could initiate a rebound, and the market might rally toward the next significant resistance level, which is located at the $48K mark. On the other hand, a bearish breakout could result in a drop to the $38K and potentially the $31K zone.   BTC Price on The 4-Hour Chart The 4-hour chart demonstrates today’s decline much more clearly. The price has created a double top pattern around the $44,500 mark and proceeded to plunge to...
