Why did #Bitcoin crash by -8% within 1 hour? Here's what happened with #MtGox and the #US government wallets 👇👇🧵

Sub to our TG for the latest: t.me/matrixportupda… Image
1/10: #Bitcoin crashed -8% in minutes on news that "wallets belonging to #MtGox and #US government are making transactions." Image
2/10: Our analysis suggests this won't have a big impact. The market is aware of eventual #Bitcoin distribution from these wallets.
3/10: We recommend buying any major dip around this news. False rumors were already reported and debunked, staying informed is key.
4/10: #MtGox to distribute $1.7B in cash, 141,000 #BTC, and 142,000 BCH to 10,000 global creditors as part of rehabilitation plan starting March 10.
5/10: #MtGox was once the world’s largest #crypto exchange, peaking at 70% of total #Bitcoin trading volume before filing for bankruptcy in 2014.
6/10: #MtGox hack resulted in 850,000 stolen #Bitcoin valued at $500M then, $17.8B today. Only 200,000 #BTC has since been recovered.
7/10: After a 7.5-year legal battle, a rehabilitation plan was drawn up in 2021 for #MtGox.
8/10: Since not all stolen #BTC could be recovered, only a fraction of the original amount held by creditors will be compensated.
9/10: All creditors will receive a base payment with options to receive the remainder of their deserved funds through bank remittance, #crypto, or fund transfer service.
10/10: #MtGox payouts at today’s #Bitcoin price level of $22,000 mean customers can reclaim their stolen #Bitcoin after 9 years with a 3,900% increase in value.

From #bearish to #bullish: #crypto trends signal a potential buying opportunity at $27,500 for #Bitcoin and #Ethereum outperformance 🧵🧵

Sub to our TG for the latest: t.me/matrixportupda… Image
#Crypto #sentiment has cooled off, with our #Bitcoin Greed & Fear Index dropping to 44 (for #Ethereum, 46). Buying half a position at $27,500 could be a good re-entry level, with the possibility of the price dropping to $25,000 for the second half.
The decline in #stablecoin #marketcap suggests money is leaving the ecosystem, with #USDC and #BUSD dropping below $30bn and $6.5bn, respectively. Negative #funding rates for #Binance #BNB could indicate potential negative news.

1/10 🚀 #OrdinalNFTs are the latest hype in the #crypto space! Unlike classic #NFTs which rely on #token standards like #ERC721, ordinal NFTs are #minted directly on the #Bitcoin #blockchain. This offers greater permanence and immutability on the distributed #ledger.
2/10 🎨 With #ordinalNFTs, users can inscribe digital art, profile pictures, videos, audios, and images directly onto #satoshis (the smallest unit of #Bitcoin). This means no need for additional #sidechains, L2 solutions, or #tokens! #cryptoart

1/10: Our Greed & Fear index dropped to mid-level last week, setting the market up for another #rally. With #Bitcoin still driven by #US #trading hours and a US public holiday on Monday, we expect US institutions to lift prices above 25,000 from Tuesday night onwards. Image
2/10: #Bitcoin and #Ethereum prices are both above their 50-day moving averages, which is a #bullish sign. The global #crypto market cap increased by 10.9% WoW to $1.17 trillion, with Bitcoin dominance at 40.4% for the week. Overall, the trend is up and the market is #bullish.
