Litecoin: Why Past Pre-Halving Rally May Not Push LTC Above $100

Image
LTC decreased by 12.80% in the last 30 days in contrast to the previous pre-halving performance. If the 50 EMA flips the 20 EMA, then LTC might fall below $90 unless buying pressure increases. Long positions outweighed shorts, suggesting a bullish sentiment in the aftermath of the halving. As Litecoin (LTC), approaches its third halving event, discussions have risen on whether history will repeat itself in terms of price performance. For context, the halving happens every four years, and it’s a process where miners get rewards for validating transactions. Historically, LTC goes on a pre-halving rally before the price falls a few days after the event. According to CoinMarketCap, this was the case prior to the August 5 2019 halving. Around this period, LTC grew from $88 around July to trade above $120 on the halving day. LTC Is Not In Tune with History However, as one of the pioneering cryptocurrencies, LTC has not had the same move this cycle. As mentioned a

Binance Files Motion to Dismiss CFTC Lawsuit, Cites Overreach

Image
The attorneys have called out CFTC for its regulatory overreach. In their recent court filing, they wrote: “In this case, the CFTC seeks to regulate foreign individuals and corporations that reside and operate outside the United States — outstripping the limits of its statutory authority and treading on deep-rooted principles of comity with foreign sovereigns”. advertisement According to the filing, the CFTC’s first six charges do not apply to the foreign conduct mentioned in the case, and some of the charges do not meet the necessary legal standards required by law. The seventh charge, accusing Binance of evading the Commodity Exchange Act, should also be dismissed since the agency itself fails to meet the necessary requirements for such an accusation, as stated in the filing.
