Charts of the Week

Bitcoin in Trajectory to Aim Higher But One Warning Sign Remains

  • Bitcoin price has projected a saucer bottom pattern on the 3-day chart, an indication that is usually in favor of the bulls. If it manages to slice above the breakout line at $28,486, BTC could target bigger aspirations.
  • From a technical perspective, analysts have also noted that the market should stay cautious, as the Relative Strength Index (RSI) displays a decline in strength – indicating a bearish divergence. Should the bearish scenario take place, Bitcoin would test the first level of support at the 78,6% Fibonacci retracement level at $26,077, then at the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at $23,800.
  • Only if the aforementioned footholds fail to act as a line of defense for BTC, then additional support may appear at $20,601, where the 50 and 100 three-day Simple Moving Averages (SMAs) converge.

    Options Traders Sentiment

    • By analyzing the volume of call (buy) options versus put (sell) options, traders are able to assess the overall market sentiment. Usually, bullish strategies tend to involve call options, while bearish trading strategies typically involve put options.

Difference between AES and DES

  AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and DES (Data Encryption Standard) are both symmetric key encryption algorithms, which means they use the same key for both encryption and decryption. However, they differ in several key ways: Key size: AES supports key sizes of 128, 192, or 256 bits, while DES only supports a key size of 56 bits. This makes AES much more secure against brute-force attacks. Block size: AES uses a block size of 128 bits, while DES uses a block size of 64 bits. This means that AES can encrypt larger amounts of data at once, and is more efficient for modern computing architectures. Algorithm complexity: AES is a more complex algorithm than DES, which means that it is generally more difficult to attack. DES has been shown to be vulnerable to certain types of attacks, particularly those that exploit its relatively small key size. Security: AES is generally considered to be more secure than DES, and is currently recommended by security experts as the preferred encryp...

crypto

  Crypto, short for "cryptocurrency," refers to a digital or virtual currency that uses cryptography to secure and verify transactions and to control the creation of new units. Cryptocurrencies are decentralized, meaning they are not controlled by a central authority like a government or bank. Instead, they rely on a distributed ledger technology called blockchain, which allows for secure, transparent, and immutable record-keeping. The most well-known cryptocurrency is Bitcoin, which was created in 2009 by an unknown person or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Since then, thousands of other cryptocurrencies, often referred to as "altcoins," have been created, each with their own unique features and use cases. Cryptocurrencies can be used for a variety of purposes, including as a medium of exchange, a store of value, and a speculative investment. Some people also view cryptocurrencies as a way to protect against inflation or as a means of financial freedom,...

Ethereum hits an 8-month high as it nears $2,000

  Ethereum ( ETH ), the world’s second-largest   cryptocurrency , has reached an 8-month high as it continues its upward trend toward $2,000. The price of ETH rose to $1,909 on Wednesday, April 5, marking a 5% increase in just 24 hours, this surge comes amid a broader market rally that saw Bitcoin ( BTC ), the largest cryptocurrency, test resistance at $29,000. Ethereum’s on-chain activity has been steadily increasing over the past few months, with more and more users utilizing the network for various purposes. This uptick in activity has led to a surge in demand for Ethereum, with sharks (addresses holding 100-10,000) ETH accumulated $4.24 billion in the past 9 months, per the data from crypto analytics firm  Santiment  on April 5. According to Ali Martinez, a cryptocurrency trading expert, Ethereum is currently showing signs of breaking out, and the next key resistance level lies beyond $2,100. Furthermore, Martinez suggests that there...
