What will trigger next crypto collapse?

What will trigger the next collapse in the crypto market? Here is a forecast by Mark Cuban, the billionaire investor, owner of the NBA team Dallas Mavericks, and a star of the reality show Shark Tank. According to Cuban, the next implosion in the crypto market could be caused by the discovery and removal of wash trades on centralized exchanges. This refers to FTX-style fraud committed by centralized exchanges. FTX's scheme resulted in a loss of billions of dollars of client funds.

"I think the next possible implosion is the discovery and removal of wash trades on central exchanges. There are supposedly tens of millions of dollars in trades and liquidity for tokens that have very little utilization," Cuban said. "I don't see how they can be that liquid." However, the Shark Tank's star added that he had no definite proof to back his words up.

Wash trading has long been a concern with cryptocurrency exchanges attempting to inflate their trading volumes. The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) prohibits wash trades, and regulators worldwide are increasingly cracking down on wash trading involving cryptocurrencies.

Kim Grauer, director of research at blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis, said in September 2022 that wash trading in the crypto space was "a legal gray area that we're all trying to figure out how this should be regulated and what's illegal."

Marc Cuban is a die-hard supporter of Bitcoin and considers it a very good investment. Earlier, he called gold investors "dumb". Cuban also revealed that he invests in crypto because he expects smart contracts to have a significant impact on the society, reducing its dependence on banks and governments.

On the technical side, Bitcoin's breakout above the key level of $17,460 has pushed the instrument into the $18,300 area, which will be the focus of today's trading session. Amid today's US inflation data release, a breakout of this level will push BTC up towards the next key resistance level of $18,720 and open the way towards testing $19,360. If Bitcoin comes under renewed pressure and drops below $17,400, it could then slide down towards $16,600 and $15,560. A breakout below these levels will send BTC down towards $14,650 and $14,370.

Ethereum bulls aim to break above the closest resistance at $1,420. It would be enough to move ETH out of its sideways trend, which began around November 6, and end the bearish wave. A consolidation above $1,420 would rebalance Ethereum, opening the way to a high of $1,570. A more distant target is $1,675. If the pressure on the trading instrument returns and ETH breaks through the support at $1,310, the recently formed level of $1,198 will come into play. A breakout below that level will push the trading instrument to the low of $1,073. Below $1,073 lie $999 and $934, and a drop towards these levels would be quite painful for cryptocurrency holders.

本週可能影響加密市場的關鍵事件

比特幣已經回落到108,000美元以下,而以太坊在週末短暫升至2,500美元以上後再次回落。顯然,交易者將密切關注本週即將發布的幾項宏觀經濟數據,以及在歐洲央行論壇上發表演說的央行決策者的言論。

6月30日加密貨幣市場的交易建議

比特幣和以太坊在週末持續增長,即使在主要加密貨幣接近其歷史高點的情況下,也顯示出穩定的需求。當大家都在期盼比特幣即將突破112,000美元的水平時,我發現了一些關於2025年上半年的駭客攻擊和盜竊的相當有趣的報告。

6月27日加密貨幣市場交易提示(北美交易時段)

比特幣再次嘗試回到108,000美元的水平,但未能維持並向下修正,跌破107,000美元,這一走勢可能導致該工具的更大規模拋售。 與此同時,許多專家認為比特幣很快可能會超過先前的歷史高位112,000美元,尤其是在伊朗-以色列衝突看似暫告一段落的情況下。

又一大型企業宣布籌集10億美元購買比特幣

加密貨幣市場顯示出強勁的信心。鑑於其與美國股市的相關性——歷史高點不斷刷新——有理由期待數位資產進一步增長。

6月27日加密貨幣市場交易建議

在昨天美國經濟增長疲弱的基本數據發佈後,Bitcoin 和 Ethereum 暫停了它們的上升趨勢。 然而,這並不是主要原因。

6月26日加密貨幣市場交易建議

由於市場對今年美聯儲預期的多次降息出現新的預測,比特幣和以太坊正在表現出穩定增長。美聯儲主席再次表現出溫和立場,以及特朗普批評鮑威爾的不作為,觸發了美國股市的買盤,同時也對加密貨幣市場產生影響。

比特幣旨在持續增長

昨天,比特幣繼續上漲,這源於聯邦儲備主席傑羅姆·鮑威爾對未來利率的態度明顯緩和。 他的謹慎言論——聯邦準備局將密切監控經濟數據,然後決定是否進一步降息——被市場解讀為可能放寬貨幣政策的信號。

2025年6月25日BTC/USD分析

在4小時的BTC/USD圖表中,波形模式仍然相對清晰。我們觀察到一個修正的下行形態,完成於接近$75,000的水平後,開始了一波強勁的上行走勢,可以視為衝動上升趨勢的開端。

6月25日加密貨幣市場交易建議

比特幣和以太坊在昨日繼續上漲,這是受到伊朗和以色列停火消息的推動。美聯儲主席杰羅姆·鮑威爾在眾議院作證時,表現出比較溫和的態度,這也讓投資者和交易者可以專注於購買風險資產,包括那些以加密貨幣計價的資產。

BTC/USD 現在努力達到106000的水平。星期二,2025年6月24日。

1. 市場情緒概要。 昨日特朗普總統緩和了對伊朗的攻擊,緩解了當前的全球地緣政治緊張局勢,導致市場上多個投資者開始重新轉向投資諸如比特幣等風險資產。
