Bitcoin, the world's largest cryptocurrency, continues its upward rally and attracted more bids around the $28k mark as the total cryptocurrency market capitalization exceeded $1.17 trillion, indicating positive momentum in the crypto market and contributing to BTC gains.
This trend coincides with some major US banks experiencing challenges, which has renewed discussions about the significance of digital currency.
Former Coinbase CTO Balaji Srinivasan believes that if a global banking crisis occurs, Bitcoin's price could reach $1 million in less than 90 days. He anticipates a hyperinflationary scenario in the United States caused by a banking crisis, which will cause Bitcoin's value to skyrocket in the coming days.
Srinivasan has even bet $2 million on his prediction of the future of the US economy and its potential impact on Bitcoin's value. The continuous financial instability has fueled demand for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies as a safe-haven investment, resulting in a spike in BTC prices.
On Monday, the BTC/USD pair continued to rise, breaking through the resistance level of $27,750. If this bullish trend continues, it could potentially reach $30,700 or even higher.
However, if the support levels at $26,700 or $25,200 fail, the next support level for Bitcoin is at $23,150. Despite potential dips, the overall trend remains strong due to the formation of bullish engulfing candles.
On Monday, the ETH/USD pair is showing a bullish bias, but its upward momentum is not as strong as Bitcoin. Ethereum is currently struggling to break through the $1,800 level. If the ETH/USD pair manages to surpass this level, it is likely to face immediate resistance at the $1,900 $.
On the lower side, the ETH/USD pair is likely to gain immediate support at either the $1,700 or $1,620 level.
