Bitcoin Sets Record For Largest Single Day Pump After One Year

Bitcoin recorded its largest single-day pump in a year as the Russian ruble tanked 20% in its value against the dollar amidst worldwide economic sanctions imposed in the country after their attack on Ukraine. Sanctions Pump Bitcoin The most influential countries in the world have imposed penalties on Russia aiming for its economic collapse to stop Putin’s efforts to invade Ukraine. However, it is not only politicians who are threatened by penalties but common citizens. State Duma deputy from the Communist Party Nikolai Arefiev commented to a local news portal that savings of Russians could be confiscated by the Russian government: “If all funds that are abroad are blocked, then the government will have no other choice but to seize all the deposits of the population – there are about 60 trillion rubles – in order to get out of the situation.” Both Russians and Ukrainians have recorded enormous increases in crypto trading volume as they run to use it as a safe haven for their savings and wealth and a financial tool that allows them to take their money abroad or avoid sanctions. Similarly, bitcoin also became a valuable tool to send donations to Ukrainian efforts. The cryptocurrencies that have recorded the highest trading volumes in the countries have been bitcoin and tether. Bitcoin’s original narrative seems to be winning amongst the people who need it and so, its price has increased while recording other historical marks.

Furthermore, data shows that the digital coin was back at providing better returns after a rough month. Bitcoin’s 7-day volatility increased to 5.4%, its highest mark since June 2021. Arcane Research notes this proves that the digital coin “behaves opposite of the rest of the financial markets concerning volatility, as upwards price movements often cause the most significant volatility spikes.” Similarly, many were already used to the possible correlation between bitcoin and tech stocks, but that correlation has decoupled as bitcoin price increased 5% during the past day while equity stocks closed at lower prices. Bitcoin use case as a store of value might be making a return to the markets. Before Monday’s big pump, bitcoin trading volume reached over $10 billion last Thursday as a reaction to Russia’s attack on Ukraine. This is the highest level reached since December 4th.

BTC Price Arcane data further noted that the digital coin has returned to its $40-44k trading range and the resistance level of $44,000, found during early February’s rally, is an important mark since the coin has yet to convincingly break through that resistance. Data suggests that if BTC breaks through $44k again, then “$47,000 is the next resistance area to pay attention to.” Meanwhile, bitcoin was slightly up in the last 24 hours. At the time of writing the digital coin’s price is $43,894.

The Nightly Mint: Daily NFT Recap

Welcome to the Nightly Mint – a new content series from our team at NewsBTC that provides all the quick hits at the end of each day around all things NFT. Each weekday, we’re bringing you a daily NFT recap of the latest bites of action – spanning across news headlines, community chatter, and a closing “minty fresh” take that we’ll share each day to keep the curiosity cooking. The Nightly Mint New TIMEPieces Mint TIME Magazine has easily been the most aggressive traditional publication to get NFTs right. TIME dropped their latest ‘TIMEPieces’ launch today, raising funds for humanitarian relief efforts in Ukraine. Pixelmon Takes Heat Chatter around the NFT community today was aplenty surrounding the massive flop of Pixelmon, an NFT project that raised a staggering $70M, and promised a high-flying roadmap. It’s been a flop of epic proportions, quickly becoming a bit of the ‘flavor of the week’ laughingstock in the NFT space: Pixelmon had an art reveal so terrible, ‘Kevin’ is being labeled a historical NFT pic.twitter.com/A2ummGDypV — ThreadGuy.eth 💫 (@DiscoverXnft) February 28, 2022 Related Reading | Bitcoin Mining More Damaging To The Environment After China Ban, Study Says KPMG Canada is purchasing an NFT just a few short weeks after adding Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) to their portfolio. | Source: ETH-USD on TradingView.com KPMG Canada Buys ‘World Of Women’ NFT KPMG is one of the ‘big four’ accounting firms with operations that span across the globe. In an announcement today, the Canadian division at KPMG has purchased a ‘World of Women’ NFT as “part of it’s corporate strategy.” The floor price on WoW is currently around $25K. A Managing Partner of Advisory Services at KPMG Canada, Benjie Thomas, stated: “This acquisition reflects our belief not only in the continued growth of NFTs, but in the value of WoW and its mission. Having now gone through the process, we are well-positioned to guide our clients around building a corporate NFT strategy, including, acquiring and safeguarding NFTs.” Projects like WoW that stand for gender equity in a predominantly male environment are primed to be major players for institutions that desire purpose-driven NFT investments. The ‘Minty Fresh’ Take Today’s minty fresh take comes courtesy of @mikethreezy on Twitter: there is nothing about an NFT that is inherently related to art. NFTs are much broader, non-fungible things, and the kinds of things they represent irl will likely grow exponentially expecting ppl to have more interest in the art tokens is setting urself up for disappointment — mike three 🔻 (@mikethreezy) February 28, 2022 At NewsBTC and our sister network Bitcoinist, we’ve been covering all sorts of potential use cases for NFTs as we look ahead; don’t be surprised to see more and more projects that are less focused on strictly art, and more focused on utility.
