The Crypto Market’s Steady Ascent

Market Picture

Active buying continues in the crypto market, with its total cap rising 3.2% in 24 hours to $2.21 trillion, reviving the fight to break the previous local high of $2.27 trillion a month ago. The local low in early September was above the previous low, and a break of the recent highs could provide fresh buying momentum and signal a break in the multi-month downtrend.

Bitcoin broke above $64K on Friday morning and is fast approaching a test of the emotionally important 200-day moving average, which also holds the late August highs. Overcoming this resistance would open the way to the upper boundary of the descending channel at $66K and a break of the downtrend on the rise above $68K.

The turnaround in market sentiment has helped Solana, which has rallied around 20% from the lows seen just before the Fed meeting. In the daily timeframe, the coin has consolidated above the 50-day moving average and is approaching the 200-day (around $154) at current levels near $150.
