XRP, LTC, XMR and AVAX show bullish signs as Bitcoin battles to hold $28K

The recent banking crisis in the United States seems to have shaken the belief of some customers in the legacy banking system. According to Federal Reserve data, customers pulled nearly $100 billion in deposits in the week ending March 15.

American venture capital investor and entrepreneur Tim Draper said in a March 25 report that “founders need to consider a more diversified cash management approach” due to the over-regulation of banks and micromanagement by the government. As part of a contingency plan, Draper suggested businesses keep “ at least 6 months of short-term cash in each of two banks, one local bank and one global bank, and at least two payrolls worth of cash in Bitcoin (BTC) or other cryptocurrencies.”

Bitcoin is 1 week away from 'confirming' new bull market — analyst

Bitcoin (BTC) has a matter of days to go before beginning a new macro uptrend, the latest analysis says.

In his latest Twitter activity, popular trader and analyst Rekt Capital flagged a key monthly close in the making for BTC/USD.

BTC price action closely mimics past cycles

Despite facing problems flipping $28,000 to support, BTC price action is firmly on the way to abandoning its bear market.

That is according to Rekt Capital, who on March 26 presented an optimistic picture of how BTC/USD would likely finish the month.

The pair's recent gains have put it above a macro downtrend in place since its 2021 all-time highs, but the March close would be the first potential candle to complete above that trend line on monthly timeframes.
