Daily Analysis: Oil Hits New Low as Pound Hit Hard Again

Tuesday Market Recap

Asset Current Value Daily Change
S&P 500 2443 -0.17%
DAX 12847 -0.28
WTI Crude Oil 43.12 -2.92%
GOLD 1244.00 -0.20%
Bitcoin 2643 2.13%
EUR/USD 1.1125 -0.20%

Crude oil trades on a new 8-month low today, as the growing US and global supply, the OPEC-related wows, and the mounting economic worries all weigh on the price of the most traded commodity. The WTI contract trades at $43 per barrel, and that dominates today’s market together with the Pound’s weakness as stocks and currencies are mostly quiet once again. The GBP got hit hard after the speech of BOE Governor Carney who cooled down the rate hike expectations that got a boost after last week’s split vote on the central bank,s monetary meeting. US and European equities are slightly lower while the Japanese market is still strong as the Yen continued to slide lower against the USD during the Asian session.

WTI Crude Oil on new lows, 4-Hour Chart Analysis

The post-Fed strength of the Dollar is also pushing Gold lower, as the Shiny Metal is still stuck below the $1250 level. Industrial commodities are also lower, as the Chinese stocks market is still far behind international markets, and the global economic surprise index continues to hit new year-to-date lows.  With that in mind, the strength of equities is surprising, but the NASDAQ is lagging the other major benchmarks again after the bounce yesterday, and that could mean that more downside is ahead for the tech benchmark.

Cryptocurrencies

Most of the coins are also calm, but Ripple made a move today, rising by more than 10% against Bitcoin and 15% against the Dollar, possibly ending a lengthy consolidation period. Bitshares is also rallying, trying to break-out from a low-volatility range as well. Litecoin is trading slightly below the $50 level after the huge weekend rally, while Ethereum and Bitcoin are still stuck in narrow ranges in the summer trading environment. Ethereum Classic and Dash continue to move similarly, as the two coins are trading just below their recent highs, near the $23 and $200 levels respectively.

Ethereum experts have the chance to make a little extra pocket change this summer, as bug bounty hunting revs up with the network token release from Status. Users who have started using the Status Network Token (SNT) were encouraged to participate. Status, the messaging platform and mobile browser for the Ethereum network , offered a surprisingly large bounty for users who are able to find bugs in its smart contracts and software. The initiative, designed to help Status patch any remaining issues, began on June 14. Bug hunters were informed that major bugs would be rewarded with up to $25,000 in either Bitcoin or Ether, and in the case of critical level vulnerabilities, hunters could receive as much as $50,000. The company will use the OWASP risk assessment to determine the leve

Blockchain Best for Creative Artists Seeking Recognition

Blockchain More Blockchain technology -based projects are being developed in response to the plethora of actors within creative industries. Domains such as art, music, publishing, theater and cinema require a multitude of middlemen that contractually benefit from the talent of individuals. Don and Alex Tapscott commented in the Harvard Business Review that middlemen in the creative industry take a cut of the revenues and “pass along the rest, with the leftovers typically reaching the artists themselves months later, per the terms of their contracts.” In response, several actors have launched their own companies within the existing industry model, though it is not an option viable for all.

While Ethereum Surges, Ethereum Classic Plays The Dark Horse

Imagem
Ethereum is experiencing historic growth in terms of price and market capitalization . In less than three months, the price of Ether, the underlying cryptocurrency of Ethereum, has risen from around $50 to almost $400. Ethereum Classic, its parallel chain, has seen its underlying cryptocurrency ETC rise from about $2 to over $23, as at the time of writing. Like Bitcoin, like Ethereum Crypto Consultant President Jason Cassidy tells Cointelegraph that one of the reasons for the historic rise in the value of Ethereum is the fact that it has rebounded with conviction, having survived a contentious hard fork in 2016. This is similar to how Bitcoin has developed over the years. In 2011, Bitcoin suffered a major setback which saw the cryptocurrencies’ price decline by up to 94 percen
