Bitcoin2026-08-23 07:31:56Analyst says Bitcoin is nearing a golden cross as market structure diverges from 2022CoinDesk analyst James Van Straten said Bitcoin often rallies in the weeks before a so-called golden cross forms, pointing to a setup now taking shape in the market. According to his note, both Bitcoin’s 50-day moving average and 200-day moving average have turned upward, bringing the market closer to the technical pattern in which the shorter-term average crosses above the longer-term one. That signal is widely followed as a sign of strengthening medium- to long-term trend conditions. Van Straten contrasted the current setup with 2022, when Bitcoin’s price never broke above its 200-day moving average. This time, BTC has moved back above the area near that long-term trend line, which he said reflects a different market structure. He wrote, 「This appears to be a new market phase.」 The report also noted that a golden cross is a lagging indicator. It is generally used to confirm a trend shift rather than predict short-term price action. Data from Glassnode shows that Bitcoin has, on multiple occasions in the past, risen before the 50-day moving average crossed above the 200-day moving average.1060
Bitcoin2026-08-20 16:56:00Bitcoin Strengthens Technically as Golden Cross Hovers Near ConfirmationBitcoin is gaining momentum and moving closer to a golden cross, a chart pattern widely viewed as a long-term bullish signal, according to CoinDesk. The 50-day moving average is about $63,976, while the 200-day moving average is around $69,005. If the 50-day line keeps rising and crosses above the 200-day line, traders may get a fresh bullish signal. The report also notes that bitcoin has stayed below the 200-day average since October 2025, when BTC traded around $110,000, and warns that the current move could still prove to be only a technical rebound rather than the start of a new long-term uptrend.1050
Bitcoin2026-08-20 15:21:07Bitcoin Nears Golden Cross as Traders Watch for a Long-Term Trend ShiftBitcoin is approaching a closely watched “golden cross” pattern as its recent rally pushes price action back above a key long-term trend line. According to CoinDesk, BTC has climbed past $71,000 and is up more than 12% over the past week, with momentum now focused on whether the 50-day simple moving average can rise above the 200-day simple moving average. At present, Bitcoin is trading slightly above its 200-day SMA. The 50-day average stands at about $63,976, while the 200-day average is around $69,005. A crossover between the two is widely followed as a bullish long-term technical signal. The 200-day moving average is often used to gauge broader market direction, with sustained trading above it seen as a sign of a shift from bearish to bullish conditions. Still, the setup is not viewed as certain confirmation. CoinDesk noted that some analysts see the move as potentially a technical rebound rather than the start of a fresh long-term uptrend. If Bitcoin falls back below the 200-day average, the bullish case tied to the potential golden cross could weaken.1060
Ethereum2026-08-06 09:25:05alicharts: ETH's MVRV 0.8 Support Points to $2,300 Run, $3,000 ResistanceCrypto analyst alicharts points to Ethereum's near-six-year price history as evidence that ETH typically finds support at the MVRV 0.8 level, then pushes higher toward its realized price of roughly $2,300. The current signal mirrors four previous MVRV momentum golden crosses from prior cycles, which were followed by gains between 50% and 166%, according to the analyst. Beyond the support setup, alicharts flags $3,000 as a key resistance zone, noting that more than 10 million ETH have historical transaction records around that price level. The call was carried by ChainCatcher's market analysis desk on August 6, 2026. Within the six-year sample the analyst cites, each prior golden cross preceded a double-digit rally, and the MVRV 0.8 retest served as the consistent setup for those moves. The $3,000 zone, by contrast, sits where a heavy concentration of on-chain transaction history has been recorded, marking it as the level the analyst expects to cap upside.1890
