There are exciting weeks in the cryptocurrency market, and then there are weeks like the last. It seemed like the last seven days were a steady chop for Bitcoin, bouncing between $26K and $27K in no particular direction.
The market is trading roughly where it was last week, currently sitting at $1.17 billion according to data from CoinGecko. This is due to minor movements of major coins such as Ethereum, Binance Coin, XRP, Cardano, and others. In fact, Bitcoin’s dominance is also almost the same as it was last week, which shows that the market has remained in balance, more or less.
This is not to say that interesting things did not happen elsewhere. The CEO of OpenAI (ChatGPT developers), Sam Altman, managed to successfully close a series C at $115 million for his crypto-focused project called Worldcoin.
That’s right, it looks like high-resolution retinal scans are coming.
But that is not all. Kwon, the infamous founder of the failed Terra ecosystem, was denied bail? Interestingly, this came after initial reports that the Montenegrin government is prepared to release him on bail worth over $400K. Bail was later denied. This means that he will still be in the local jail.
We’ve also had some interesting conversations with ChatGPT that you might like. For example, we asked what will happen to the Bitcoin price during and after the next halving in 2024, and the answer was kind of interesting.
In general, the last seven days have not provided much excitement, but it could well be the calm before the storm. If one thing is for sure, it’s that crypto markets don’t like to sit dormant for long, so a big move may be just around the corner.
