By Friday, the BTC has risen to 29,208 USD. The weekly growth of the leading cryptocurrency is modest, of just 0.77%.
Overall, the technical picture looks to be to the bulls’ benefit if we do not focus too much on the correlation with the US stock market. To skyrocket, the buyers need to test 31,000 USD and secure above this level. They have more force and reasons to do so than necessary. If they succeed, the new and already known target will be in the range between 34,000 and 35,000 USD.
The capitalisation of the crypto sector has risen to 1.197 trillion USD. The part occupied by the BTC has extended to 47.3%, while the share of the ETH remains at 19.1%.
