Prices of major cryptos have fallen on Thursday
For the first part of the week major cryptoscurrencies were consolidating directly below their critical resistance levels, however, during yesterday's session the prices of major coins dropped sharply.
After the recent halving, some of the most prominent analysts in the industry believed that Bitcoin was on the cusp of a major bullish breakout. However Bitcoin price has failed to break above $ 10,000 and has instead for a brief moment broken below $ 9,000. Declines started on Thursday when a meager 40 BTC was moved from a wallet, not even to an exchange. What rattled the crypto investors about this transfer was the speculation that this long-dormant wallet, since it was created in February 2009, could belong to pseudonymous bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto.

Bitcoin price has continued to struggle with key resistance at $ 10,000 that has proven too strong for market bulls. Currently price is testing an upward trend-line. In case of a break below then $8200 should provide strong support. Source: xStation5Etherum 2.0 is on its way
The launch of Ethereum 2.0 has been a topic of interest among cryptocurrency enthusiasts. Ethereum 2.0, also called Eth2 or ‘Serenity’, is the next upgrade to the Ethereum blockchain. Ethereum 2.0 will be released in multiple “Phases” starting in June or July 2020 with Phase 0. However the exact date is still unknown. Phase 1 is anticipated in 2021. Phase 2 and beyond are anticipated for 2021 or later. Each phase will improve the functionality and performance of Ethereum in different ways. Ethereum 2.0 will primarily benefit the scalability, throughput, and security of the Ethereum public mainnet. Ethereum 2.0 will not eliminate any of the data history, transaction records, or asset ownership of the Ethereum 1.0 chain. The Beacon Chain – which will be the backbone of Ethereum 2.0 – will be fully functional with the existing 1.0 chain, ensuring continuity.
Falling short of the major resistance level at $ 215.27, Ethereum slid to local support at $ 187.03 which is additionally strengthened by the upward trend line. Should upbeat moods prevail, next support at $171.97 may come into play.Source: xStation5Crypto news:
