Death cross comes to Bitcoin, analyst points out

According to crypto analyst Benjamin Cowen, on Monday, Feb. 13, Bitcoin formed its first weekly “death cross” – a pattern that implies the possibility of a prolonged downward and a trend reversal. The death cross is frequently interpreted as an indicator of market bearishness and might cause a major price decline. Even though Bitcoin started January with a recovery, it did not manage to establish a sustained uptrend and abruptly reversed three days ago, returning to the $21,000 price level. This could mean a more significant trend reversal for the king crypto. However, one should keep in mind that the death cross is one of many tools in understanding market sentiment and is not a guarantee of future market performance.

“Rich Dad Poor Dad” author predicts Bitcoin (BTC) to hit $500,000 by 2025

“Rich Dad Poor Dad” author Robert Kiyosaki continues stirring the crypto community with his grim predictions. After a “Valentine’s Day massacre” forecast, the famous investor took to Twitter yesterday to warn his followers that a “giant crash” and “depression” are coming. They will be caused by the Fed printing “billions of fake money,” Kiyosaki believes. The author then proceeded by writing that gold and silver (“God’s money”) and Bitcoin (“people’s money”) will spike by 2025, with the biggest price growth belonging to BTC; Kiyosaki sees it reaching $500,000. In turn, this will happen due to the fact that faith in the U.S. dollar will be destroyed, in the author’s opinion.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) can reach $1 thanks to these drivers, Bone ShibaSwap (BONE) account says

BoneShibaSwap Twitter account (@BoneShiba) has recently revealed how Shiba Inu could reach the $1 price mark.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) on PayPal? Financial giant responds to request

One of the SHIB army members, user AdRock_0x, recently addressed financial giant PayPal on Twitter to ask about accepting the SHIB token as payment on its platform. “Asking for a fren,” the user added. The PayPal support account responded to the inquiry, saying that AdRock_0x’s friend should contact PayPal directly via direct message to inquire about accepting the cryptocurrency as payment. Even though it yet remains unclear whether PayPal will add Shiba Inu to its list of supported cryptocurrencies, the question by the SHIB enthusiast might inspire the meme coin community to bring this topic to a wide discussion and perhaps even create another petition to urge the financial giant to accept their beloved token.
