Bitcoin and Ethereum may renew their all-time highs this year

This image is no longer relevant

Ethereum and bitcoin have very good growth prospects. The second cryptocurrency showed a better week than bitcoin. Now ether is trading at the level of $2500, and its weekly growth was about 10%. Many institutions massively withdraw not only bitcoin, but also ethereum from their wallets. In August, the Ethereum London Hard Fork will take place. It can be observed that the balances of ethereum on crypto exchanges are globally decreasing.

Archived changes for the ether network should take place on this Hard Fork. Many are waiting for the release of ethereum 2.0 as manna from heaven, because they predict success and a palm tree on the crypto arena. Crypto enthusiasts want to see the updated and promised Proof-of-stake by Vitalik Buterin in order to completely abandon the Proof-of-work model, which is also used by bitcoin.

In 2019, the ether has already shown a significant jump in price, when it increased by 65% from May to July, the second case was recorded in 2020, when from March to July, the altcoin increased by almost 115%.

This is the coefficient of spent output profit, and following this uncomplicated trend, we can observe the growth of ether in action. According to the predictions of many analysts, in the 4th quarter of 2021, ethereum will cost 4000-5000 dollars.

As for the number one cryptocurrency, bitcoin tested the level of $41,900, but did not settle there and did not consolidate, and it fell again to $38,000.

Many experts predict that this year bitcoin will rise to its new record highs, and again it was not without the support of Elon Musk, Katie Wood, Jack Dorsey, Michael Saylor.

All these heavy figures in the crypto market constantly make clear arguments in favor of bitcoin and give forecasts regarding the number one cryptocurrency. Many analysts still believe that bitcoin is very undervalued and is worth at least 10 percent of its real value, and its real price is 350-400,000 dollars.

There is one very surprising fact that is worth paying attention to. Bitcoin exchange balances fell to the levels of 2020 and the first half of 2021. Only after that, it was possible to observe a sharp jump in the price of bitcoin, also the number one cryptocurrency has overcome all the moving averages and has now strengthened above these positions. Large institutions and humpback whales (who keep at least 1000 bitcoins on their accounts) continue to accumulate bitcoins and withdraw them to cold wallets.
