💡Coin Insights (7/24 -7/31)
- The U.S. Federal Reserve recently increased interest rates, which had minimal impact on U.S. stocks and Bitcoin, implying a reduced effect. As the U.S. dollar index is weakening, experts anticipate rates could drop by the end of the year or early next, potentially prompting an early market response favoring cryptocurrencies and financial markets. Meanwhile, U.S. stock indexes such as the Dow Jones and Nasdaq have achieved record highs but might face fluctuations soon. Notably, Bitcoin and Ethereum need to be more closely following these trends, suggesting they might be less affected by U.S. market changes. This combination of trends and events, including the U.S. dollar index decrease, could prove beneficial for the overall market.
- Medium-term strategy: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) show good upward trends over the medium term. It's advisable to hold onto them and buy more near-support levels.
- Short-term strategy: Bitcoin usually fluctuated after breaking out during the week of June 19. It's digesting some profit-taking while waiting for averages to rise and form support, potentially leading to a new uptick. If Bitcoin doesn't fall significantly below the support level, there's a good chance of a rebound.
- Short-term trading strategy: Consider buying in parts and investing for the long term. If you're cautious, consider buying Bitcoin. If you're comfortable with moderate risk, you might buy Bitcoin and Ethereum. If you're more aggressive, consider investing in Dogecoin.
- The short-term support levels for Bitcoin (BTC) are between 29,000 and 28,500. It's unlikely to fall to 28,200 in the short term, so consider buying more in stages.
- Ethereum (ETH) has short-term support levels of around 1,820 to 1,800. Consider buying more at these levels.
- Dogecoin (DOGE) has short-term support between 0.075 and 0.073. It's advisable to buy more near these support levels. The short-term technical indicators for Dogecoin are very positive. Pay close attention to buying more when the price is low. It has recently decreased a bit, but it's not expected to fall much further in the short term.

🌟 What to Expect
- (08/03/2023)
On the 3rd of August, Litecoin will undergo a "halving" event. This means the reward for recording new transactions on the Litecoin network will be reduced from 12.5 to 6.25. In the past, such events in 2015 and 2019 resulted in Litecoin's value surging by 810% and 543%, respectively. So far in 2023, its value has already risen by 126%. If we estimate that each halving boosts the weight by half the percentage of the previous one, there could be an additional increase of 271%.
