BTC: Price: $3,870 | MCAP: $68.87 billion | 24-Hr Volume: $9.87 billion Outlook: Bullish First bull cross since August Bitcoin's 50-day moving average (MA) has taken an upward turn and is about to cross the 100-day MA from below. That would be the first bullish crossover of the longer duration averages in seven months. The bull cross is a lagging indicator, being based on past data. That said, with several key indicators, like the weekly moving average convergence divergence (MACD) and the money flow index flashing early signs of bullish reversal, the probability of the cross trapping the bulls on the wrong side of the market seems low. As a result, bitcoin could rise toward $4,236 (Dec. 24 high) in the near future, as suggested by the bullish candle created on Feb. 27. A break above that level would confirm an inverse head-and-shoulders breakout and open the doors to $5,000. The bullish case, however, would weaken if prices find acceptance below the Feb. 27 low of $3,658. Read Analysis  |

 STORJ: Price: $0.30 | MCAP: $41.8 million | 24-Hr Volume: $44.2 million Outlook: Bearish Eyes On Lower Supports Storj has performed quite well, up 15 percent over a 24-hour period and retracing in price after attempting to surpass a previously known support zone turned resistance at $0.30. However the recent spike to test above will likely result in a further breakdown from the swift rejection on yesterday's (March 11) candlestick which had already retraced 7 percent at the time of writing. The daily RSI is probably the easiest identifiable sign that suggests price action switching bearish in the short-term while selling pressure remains greater than buyers as seen on the Chaikin Money Flow. A retest of the lower resistance at $0.26 would be the most probable outcome as traders look to bank a profit from its most recent lower high.  |

Facebook’s $19B Crypto Plan: Facebook’s supposed plan to create a cryptocurrency of its own could generate the company an additional $19 billion in revenue, according to Barclays internet analyst Ross Sandler. While concrete plans regarding the possible “Facebook Coin” have not been publicly expressed, Sandler believes the social media empire could see a “similar cadence” to the $6 generated per user of the Google Play store, which is the official app store for Android's operating system. Revenue projections aside, Sandler suggests the incorporation of Facebook Coin would steer the company’s business model away from generating revenue based on user data, a shift he thinks Facebook shareholders would welcome with open arms.

 Alternative cryptocurrencies, popularly known as altcoins, are at the stating line of the bull run, patiently awaiting a green signal from bitcoin, according to @CryptoHornHairs. This is evident from the classic bottoming out or bullish reversal structures seen on altcoins' daily price chart For instance, both VeChain (VET/BTC) and Waltcoinchain (WTC/BTC) have charted a double bottom pattern. Meanwhile, Cardano (ADA/BTC) is currently creating the right shoulder of an inverse head-and-shoulders bullish reversal patter. A similar bullish pattern is also noted on POA Network (POA/BTC). All these cryptocurrencies will likely post stellar gains, if and when, BTC picks up a strong bid and moves above key resistance at $4,236. |
 Bitcoin's confirmed transactions per day fell to 212,877 on Sunday, representing nearly 30 percent drop 295,000 seen ahead of the weekend, according to blockchain.info. The sharp slide to levels last seen in October is likely associated with the end of of the Veriblock testnet on March 4. If reports are to be believed the the testnet process accounted for almost 20 to 30 percent of bitcoin's total transaction volume. Also, BTC transactions in Venezuela have reportedly dropped sharply in the last few days. That could also be the reason behind the slide in number of confirmed transactions per day. |
