The price of Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen below the moving average lines but remains above the support level of $38,600.

Long-term forecast for the Bitcoin price: bearish

Since January 11, the price of the cryptocurrency has shown a pattern of lower highs and lower lows. On January 22, the bears broke through the psychological price mark of $40,000, sending Bitcoin to a low of $39,452. The cryptocurrency fell further to a low of $38,572, but the bulls bought the dips. The BTC price has corrected upwards and is consolidating above the $39,000 support.

On the downside, selling pressure has eased as Bitcoin has risen above the $38,600 support. Bitcoin is likely to move in a range between $38,600 and $44,000 if the current support holds. On the other hand, if the current support is broken, Bitcoin could fall further. The market will continue to fall, with a low of $34,500 likely to be reached.

DeFi CEO Says ‘No One Cares’ to Deutsche Bank Entry into BTC Custody

Deutsche Bank to offer bitcoin custody solution for institutional clients. Cake Group CEO believes the move will not substantially increase capital inflow or attract new participants. Deutsche Bank’s Paul Maley projects the digital asset sector to grow to trillions of dollars. Julian Hosp, the CEO of DeFi business Cake Group, has shared a skeptical reaction to Deutsche Bank’s newly-launched bitcoin custody services for institutional clients. Responding to a post on X (Twitter) by Bitcoin Magazine announcing the bank’s new services, Hosp wrote “Sadly, no one cares”. In full, his response read, And guess what… sadly no one cares… because everyone in Germany can already buy #bitcoin either with an ETF (that has literally ZERO volume) or on an exchange.

MATIC witnessed a decline in bullish momentum and has lost hold of the $0.74 psychological support. Buying pressure was weak as the CMF hovered around the zero line. Traders might likely short/sell MATIC in the near term since the 50 EMA crossed over the 20 EMA. Polygon (MATIC) brief dip below $0.78 has turned out to be an event that has lasted a whopping five days. Over the last 24 hours, the altcoin had lost 2.32% of its value. But its last 30 days’ performance was controlled by the bulls where MATIC increased by 6.61%.

PEPE has more multiples to reach its previous all-time high (ATH) compared to DOGE. PEPE will outperform DOGE in the next bull cycle, predicts Miles Deutscher, a renowned cryptocurrency analyst. In a Twitter post, Deutscher highlighted the reasons behind his prediction. I think $PEPE outperforms $DOGE next cycle.
