Financial services outfit Square just announced it has picked up more Bitcoin (BTC). 

Square “has purchased approximately 3,318 bitcoin at an aggregate purchase price of $170 million,” the company said in a public statement on Tuesday, adding:

“Combined with Square’s previous purchase of $50 million in bitcoin, this represents approximately five percent of Square’s total cash, cash equivalents and marketable securities as of December 31, 2020.”

Bitcoin has fallen significantly this week so far, dropping below the $50,000 mark after tapping a record high past $58,000, based on TradingView.com data. Based on the $170 million sum Square swapped for about 3,318 BTC, the outfit looks to have paid an average of $51,235 per coin on its new investment.

“Aligned with the company’s purpose, Square believes that cryptocurrency is an instrument of economic empowerment, providing a way for individuals to participate in a global monetary system and secure their own financial future,” Square noted in the statement. “The investment is part of Square’s ongoing commitment to bitcoin, and the company plans to assess its aggregate investment in bitcoin relative to its other investments on an ongoing basis.”

Square bought $50 million worth of Bitcoin in 2020, which it announced last fall.

Square’s statement also included an unveiling of its 2020 financial documents. Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey also serves as CEO of Square. Dorsey recently donated 1 Bitcoin to a nonprofit aimed at Bitcoin technical progress.

3 Reasons BTC Price Is Quickly Recovering From Its ‘Severe’ 23% Correction

The price of Bitcoin (BTC) quickly recovered from around $44,800 to over $50,000 within merely 22 hours. 

Behind the rapid recovery are three major factors, including low funding rates, Square’s $170 million Bitcoin purchase, and the spot market stabilizing.

Across major futures exchanges, including Binance, Bybit and Bitfinex, the funding rate of Bitcoin has dropped to 0.01%.

The Bitcoin futures funding rate was consistently above 0.1% throughout the entirety of the rally from the $40,000s to $58,000.

When the futures funding rate is high, it means the market is overcrowded with buyers and the rally likely overextended.

This creates a major risk of a long squeeze, which can cause the price of Bitcoin to drop quickly in a short period.

With the funding rate back to 0.01%, the risk of a long squeeze is significantly lower and if a new uptrend ensues, the rally could be more sustainable.

When the price of Bitcoin was correcting, the price of Bitcoin on spot exchanges, like Coinbase, was much lower than futures exchanges

On Feb. 23, for instance, Bitcoin was trading $600 lower on Coinbase at one point when the price was near $44,800.

When the price of Bitcoin initially recovered from $44,800 to $48,000, there were signs of a bearish retest.

John Cho, the director of global expansion at GroundX, said:

“We were expecting it, but didn’t think it’d come this soon or this fast. A solid bounce from here would be ideal; but some potential retracement support regions I’m watching. My bias is towards the 40-41k region as it would fulfill a 30% correction from ATH.”

Is the Ripple XRP Price getting ready to fly?

This is an extremely good time for XRP.

Before the XRP Swell event in 2017, the XRP price shot up 115% and the next year, a much bigger spike of 220% was seen in its price.

Based on these historical gains, XRP can jump anywhere between $0.30 to $0.60.

However, once the event is over, XRP price losses as much as half of its value.

The digital asset saw a drop of 42% and 51% in 2017 and 2018 respectively after the event.

Hosted by Ripple, Swell brings experts from the field of financial services, payments, technology, and policy together to share “what’s unfolding in global payments today – and why it matters.”

The Swell event, that has been launched to compete with its rival Swift – the organizer of the Sibos conference – will be held this time from November 7 – 8 in Singapore.

Bitcoin Readies For Next Big Move After Slow Weekend

XRP Ready to ‘Swell’ 220% in the Next Three Weeks as Ripple Event Nears

➡️ Leverage OPM (Other People’s Money): http://opm.cryptonewsalerts.net

The pseudonymous Bitcoin trader who made the accurate call that BTC will fall by over 40% last year is back with another Bitcoin price prediction.

This time, he says Bitcoin may be on a long-term path to $540,000. Dave the Wave relies on a chart shared by on-chain market analyst Willy Woo to illustrate that Bitcoin (BTC) is still in the earliest stage of the adoption life cycle.

“If the current market represents 2.5%, then that would put price at 500K with 100% adoption/ full capitalization. This is the S curve.”

According to Dave, Bitcoin’s growth in terms of market share is just getting started as those buying the number one cryptocurrency over the last 11 years are considered innovators which make up 2.5% of the total addressable market.

Using the S-curve, Dave predicts that Bitcoin’s value will skyrocket to $540,000 as it captures a bigger percentage of the market share in the next decade or so.

While Dave sees the possibility of Bitcoin meteorically rising 4,900% from its current value of $10,800 as extrapolated from the S-curve, the crypto strategist remains a skeptic of the stock-to-flow model (S2F) as he doesn’t expect Bitcoin to hit $100,000 by December 2021.

He says he managed to get a set of criteria from Plan B, the first to apply the S2F model to BTC, that would invalidate the wildly-popular model.

Dave highlights that the criteria are set to keep subscribers from blindly believing in the model.

“Insofar as people can be rational/ civil about the matter [both subscribers and non-subscribers to s2f] then this should be the crucial test. It’s generous enough to s2f price prediction while also holding it to account unless it become a dogma.”

Investors Ponder Big Crypto Question in Viral Post – Will Bitcoin Really Reach $100,000?

A new, viral post on Reddit centers on an oft-debated question in the world of crypto – will Bitcoin ever hit $100,000?

This year alone, numerous BTC analysts and traders, as well as top-ranking crypto entrepreneurs, have hinted at the possibility or issued formal predictions that the leading cryptocurrency will reach six figures in value in the next couple of years.

Many Redditors agree with their confidence, calling Bitcoin’s rise to $100,000 as “inevitable” and saying it is “just a question of how much time it’ll take.”

Others still think BTC is at the mercy of whales and will remain too volatile for that kind of sustained growth. Says one Redditor,

“I’ve been a BTC bull since the early days, but also recognize that ownership is concentrated in the hands of a minority early adopters who have good motivation to cash out at the right levels. I think price will remain a cycle of pumps and dumps ranging between $6k and $30k for the next 10 years.”

Others expressed worries about dollar depreciation and pondered “how much $100,000 will buy” at whatever time Bitcoin reaches that value.

Some Redditors predict it will either surpass $100,000 or go bust and plummet to zero, all dependent on adoption.

The list of crypto influencers who say the BTC price will hit six figures includes Pantera Capital founder Dan Morehead; Real Vision CEO and former Goldman Sachs manager Raoul Pal; Morgan Creek Digital co-founder Anthony Pompliano…

Kraken chief executive Jesse Powell; veteran analyst Tone Vays; popular Youtuber Nicholas Merten; Su Zhu, chief executive of fund management firm Three Arrows Capital…

Bitcoin Pioneer Max Keiser; Bitcoin Billionaires, Tim Draper, Chamath Palihapitiya & The Winklevoss Twins; and the pseudonymous strategists Dave the Wave and PlanB among others.
