Bitcoin Price Analysis: Macro Resistance Could Push Price Down to $6,000s
Summary:
- The bitcoin market is seeing some pullback as the monthly and weekly resistance level has proven to be a tough level to crack. On the daily level we can see a couple of attempts to break the level, but ultimately this was matched with strong selling pressure.
- On bitcoin’s four-hour chart we can see that support that once held the market up is now turning into support with a failure to reclaim the level.
- If we fail to reclaim the $ 7,800s, we can expect to see a retest of the $ 7,300s and if that level doesn’t hold, we will very likely see a test of the low $ 6,000s.
Samourai Wallet Adds Tor Integration in Privacy Push
Samourai Wallet announced this month that its latest update supports Tor integration, offering additional privacy for users.

He explained that using the Tor integration before creating a new wallet can shield a user’s identity beyond the fact that they are not required to provide any personal information. With Tor, Samourai’s servers will not be able to see a user’s IP address when they connect to the API, only their Bitcoin addresses, thus protecting the one piece of information that could tie their wallet to their real-world identity.

Litecoin Price Seems Poised for a Push to $55 Over the Weekend
As all top cryptocurrencies are moving upward once again due to some recent developments, all eyes are turning to Litecoin right now.
