    Cryptocurrency Prices on August 13: Bitcoin trades near $59k ahead of US inflation data; Altcoins mixed

    August 13, 20242 Mins Read


    Bitcoin and Ethereum traded higher on Tuesday, ahead of key U.S. economic data releases that could influence the Federal Reserve’s policy decisions.

    At 2:37 pm IST, BTC surged 1% over the past 24 hours, trading just below $59,000. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, also gained 2.5%.

    Key data releases this week include the U.S. producer price data for July, due later on Tuesday, and the U.S. consumer price index (CPI) data for July, expected on Wednesday. The CPI data is anticipated to show a month-on-month inflation increase of 0.2%. Retail sales data is scheduled for Thursday.

    The broader cryptocurrency market showed mixed results. Major tokens such as BNB, Toncoin, Dogecoin, and Cardano gained up to 3%, while Solana, XRP, Tron, Avalanche, and Shiba Inu declined by up to 1%.“Bitcoin is trading sideways, seeking support around the $58,000 mark,” said the CoinSwitch Markets Desk. “Investors are awaiting this week’s crucial data to determine the market direction. The U.S. CPI data expected tomorrow will likely have a significant impact on short-term price volatility.”Edul Patel, CEO of Mudrex, added, “Bitcoin has been hovering around the $59,000 mark as markets anticipate the release of July’s CPI data from the U.K. and the U.S. Resistance could emerge near the $60,250 level, with a clear break above potentially pushing the price higher. Support is found at the $58,800 level.”The volume of all stablecoins is now $73.9 billion, which is 92.45% of the total crypto market 24-hour volume, as per data available on CoinMarketCap.In the last 24 hours, the market cap of Bitcoin, the world’s largest cryptocurrency, rose to $1.162 trillion. Bitcoin’s dominance is currently 55.93%, according to CoinMarketCap. BTC volume in the last 24 hours rose 24% to $34.8 billion.

    “Bitcoin has displayed heightened volatility after encountering strong resistance around $60,000 level. BTC’s price is currently hovering near $59,000, with signs that further declines may have been averted. Its RSI continues to recover with its MACD histograms shortening indicating weakening bearish action. If $59,000 doesn’t hold, Bitcoin will likely retest the $57,000 level in the upcoming days,” said Vikram Subburaj, CEO of Giottus.
