• Cryptocurrency industry gets ready for the next altseason.
  • Bitcoin has been range-bound at the pivotal line of $11,000.
  • XRP/USD may be poised to further recovery if it stays above $0.2300.


The cryptocurrency market has resumed the recovery after a short period of consolidation. Bitcoin and major altcoins are in a green zone again, though the first digital asset seems to lag behind some altcoins like XRP, BCH, and EOS that demonstrate stronger growth momentum.

Cryptocurrency traders draw parallels with the previous massive growth of smaller coins and expect a new altseason. A crypto and options trader known as Kaleo, posted a chart that reflects how similar the altcoin market looks to March 2017. He also believes that we are on the verge of a new altseason.

Meanwhile, gold moved close to psychological $2,000 per ounce; the European stocks and the U.S. index futures edged higher as the market looked past disappointing earning reports. However, investors will continue analyzing earnings looking for clues on how the resurgence of Covid-19 will influence recovery in the global economy.
