Top 3 Price Prediction Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple: Bitcoin takes the reins of the market

  • Fight for dominance and an overheated Ethereum drive the future.
  • Ripple might be a secondary golden player, helping Bitcoin towards new relative highs.
  • Market sentiment rebounds and supports change in leadership.

The war for dominance in the crypto market has been going on for weeks, and Bitcoin has been looking for a way to regain market share after several months when Altcoins, and mainly Ethereum, had eaten up a lot of its ground. 

The puzzle was how to get King Bitcoin to regain lost ground: a bear market with Bitcoin acting as a safe-haven, or a bull market with Bitcoin leading the way and leaving its competitors behind?

The European morning leaves a few clues in the charts as to where things might be heading. The BTC/USD pair is moving upwards in search of the price congestion resistance level at $11370 before stopping at the psychological level of $11000.

The ETH/USD pair moves lower and seeks support at the $360 price level.

Market expectations seem to be that this will occur, as reflected in a significant rise in market sentiment, which has climbed to 47 (neutral) level after several days indicating that there was a feeling of fear among Crypto market participants.
