It ended on a bearish note last week as a BTC correction reduced it from $ 48,000 to about $ 41,000 in a matter of days. The situation worsened on Monday as the cryptocurrency fell below $ 40,000 for the first time since September as part of another volatile move south.

However, it immediately bounced back and recovered more than $ 2,000 in a matter of hours. The BTC continued to move up yesterday, even briefly touching $ 44,000 after the US announced its highest inflation rates in 40 years.

After a brief retreat, BTC climbed above $ 44,000 to reach $ 44,250, the highest price tag since the correction began last Wednesday. Since then, however, the asset has failed to stay north of the border and stands just below it.

The Altcoins also fell sharply last week, but are now mostly in the green. ETH sank below $ 3,000 on Monday, but responded well and began to recover almost immediately.

BTC analysis – has the price reached the absolute bottom of the correction at $ 40,000?

ETH analysis – the price goes to $ 3,600, but it won’t get there right away

CBDC, Regulation

Pakistan’s central bank reportedly wants to ban cryptocurrencies

Pakistan State Bank (SBP) is reportedly seeking to ban all cryptocurrency transactions in Pakistan.

Pakistan’s Supreme Court in Sindh has reportedly held a hearing on the legal status of cryptocurrencies in the country, in which several Pakistani authorities, including the SBP, submitted a document to the court alleging that cryptocurrencies such as BTC are illegal and cannot be used for trafficking.

According to local news channel Samaa TV, the document cited at least 11 countries, including China and Saudi Arabia, that have decided to ban cryptocurrencies. Pakistan’s central bank has reportedly urged the court not only to ban cryptocurrency activities but also to impose sanctions on crypto exchanges.

Hong Kong is asking for feedback on a risk-based approach to cryptocurrency and stablecoin regulation

The Hong Kong Central Bank is asking the public for feedback on new regulatory measures aimed at reducing what it calls “significant risks to financial stability” posed by cryptocurrencies and stablecoins.

The Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), the country’s central banking institution, released a discussion paper on Wednesday outlining its position “in the face of growing acceptance” of this nascent asset class.

The document argues that the current size and business activity does not pose a “immediate threat” to the global financial system from a systemic point of view. Although the Bank recognizes that the increase in institutional acceptance of crypto assets, as an alternative or complement to traditional asset classes, it represents a growing link to mainstream finance.
