  Bitcoin and altcoins are likely to remain range-bound in the short-term as the bulls and the bears attempt to assert their dominance. 13677 69 0:00 Price analysis 8/26: BTC, ETH, XRP, LINK, BCH, LTC, BSV, CRO, BNB, ADA PRICE ANALYSIS On Thursday, U.S. Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell is expected to deliver an important speech that will highlight a new strategy of targeting “average inflation.” This means that the Fed might allow inflation to overshoot the 2% target temporarily if it has spent a long time below that level. If the Fed adopts this new strategy, it could keep interest rates near zero for five years or more, according to a Bloomberg report. The abundant liquidity is likely to drive asset prices higher across the board and create bubbles that will eventually burst. If this occurs, investors are likely to lose complete faith in the central banks and fiat currencies. Daily cryptocurrency market performance. Source: Coin360 Daily cryptocurrency market performance.

 If the pandemic has taught us anything, it is this: No one can survive with one source of income. Also, it is unwise to blindly throw your money into any type of investment. You need something solid, a pandemic-proof opportunity. This explains why many young Nigerians have been looking seriously into the forex trading sector. It is, afterall, the biggest and most liquid market in the world. And anyone can trade at any time, from the comfort and privacy of their smart gadgets. However, many wonder if it isn’t counterculture. People can’t quite agree on the morality of making a living from speculating about the rise of the dollar against the pound sterling or the Nigerian naira. And if you have a low appetite for risk, you probably want to be sure that Forex trading is legal in Nigeria. But before we address this concern, let’s look at a brief definition of Forex trading.

Convoking a slew of talented producers, from hip-hop legends Timbaland and Mike Dean to local hero Rexxie, Burna Boy pays close attention to the beatsmiths who are to provide the instrumental grooves that will accompany his versatile performance through the project. The opening of the album makes that clear, before anything else. Just as Boone is reaching into his chest to pull out the spritely pre-hook of “Twice As Tall”, the 1959 classic moodily bleeds into the futurist production that underscores Burna Boy’s retrospective meditations on the times were he “Couldn’t Level Up”. Produced by a village, “Level Up (Twice As Tall)” is a sonically sprawling track, with its theatre

3 reasons why Bitcoin price volatility may spike before the monthly close

Image
 As the monthly candle close of Bitcoin (BTC) comes closer, signs of heightened volatility are emerging. With just four days until the highly anticipated expiration of Chicago Mercantile Exchange futures contracts and Deribit options, BTC’s near-term direction remains uncertain. Three reasons to expect a spike in volatility over the next week are BTC’s prolonged consolidation, a key resistance level overhead, and the sizable expirations of BTC futures and options contracts. Bitcoin consolidates for nearly a week On Aug. 17, the price of Bitcoin surged to as high as $12,486 on Coinbase, achieving a new yearly high. Since then, the price has consolidated within a tight range and been unable to break above $12,000 again. When Bitcoin consolidates for extended periods without clear price movement to either direction, it tends to see high volatility. Since Aug. 19, the Bitcoin price has stayed within a 4.5% range, which presents a tight range for BTC. BTC/USD nears a crucial support BTC/USD
