👜 73% of cryptocurrency owners will continue to invest in 2025 - Kraken

Cryptocurrency exchange Kraken has published a study of the crypto market. According to it, 73% of cryptocurrency owners plan to continue investing in this type of assets in 2025. The difference in the age of people who have ever bought crypto assets is noteworthy - 69% of middle-aged respondents (45-60 years old), compared to 55% of young respondents (18-29 years old). 46% of middle-aged investors have a clear preference for digital assets over traditional stocks (23%), shattering the notion that cryptocurrencies are primarily for the younger generation.

💨 Ripple avoided the court

A US court has fined Ripple $125M, but also recognized XRP trading on exchanges as legal. This court decision puts a fat point, this Ripple is not a security at all. It is logical that the price of the token went up and now everyone who has been sitting in Ripple for a few years will write that they are Diamond Hand, and it will be worth at least $10 on the bull market.

😶‍🌫️A journalist has filed a request with the FBI regarding Satoshi's identity 

American journalist Dave Troy has submitted a request to the FBI regarding the identity of bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. The agency responded that they could neither confirm nor deny the existence of records about it.

Troy emphasized that this is how the FBI responds to all inquiries that involve individuals without U.S. citizenship. However, he noted several interesting points from his perspective:

• The FBI is addressing Nakamoto as a person, not an organization;
• The bitcoin creator was likely a third party in no way connected to the FBI.

[2] 🔔ETH's possible breakout

According to RLinda's technical analysis, the market is rebounding on the ETH/USDT pair after a major drop caused by fear. Buyers initially couldn't push the price above $2000, but now they're aiming to keep it over #2500. The overall market trend is still positive.

If the price returns to the previous range, it could rise to $4000–4800. The market is still bullish overall. The recent drop and quick recovery suggest that weaker traders have been cleared out, and the market is now poised to move higher. The key levels to watch are between $2717 and 2817. If the price breaks through and stays above this range, it could create strong support and set the stage for a rise to over $4000.

• Support Levels: 2518, 2425, 2400
• Resistance Levels: 2717, 2817

*Any technical analysis in the long run cannot accurately predict the movement because now is a very tough market and the news can swing currencies in all directions
