This scenario has switched the focal point of our 2021 analysis toward more-technical indicators from a wider range of fundamental and on-chain metrics in the past few years,&#8221; a new report reads.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;A more likely 2Q scenario is to breach $60,000 resistance and head toward $80,000.

The precious metal &#8220;will always have a place in jewelry and coin collections,&#8221; he argued, &#8220;but most indicators point to an accelerating pace of Bitcoin replacing the metal as a store of value in investor portfolios.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Bitcoin&#8217;s fundamental and technical underpinnings are improving while gold&#8217;s deteriorate,&#8221; the report summarized.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Altcoin_wake-up_call_sees_gain\"><\/span>Altcoin wake-up call sees gain<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, altcoins had even more to celebrate than the average Bitcoin investor on the day as large-cap cryptocurrencies added to strong weekly growth.<\/p>\n<p>Among them was Ether (ETH), fresh from new all-time highs around $2,150, and XRP, which broke the $1 barrier for the first time since 2018 before correcting.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Binance Coin, (BNB), the second-largest altcoin by market cap, gained 3.4% to hit $388, sealing weekly gains of over 33%.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Large Cap Altcoins are waking up,&#8221; popular <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a> trader Rekt Capital <a rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/rektcapital\/status\/1379424904039211020\">announced<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>An accompanying graphic suggested that smaller altcoins would feel the benefit once larger coins had outperformed.
