Bitcoin (BTC) Price Prediction: Returning to the $7,000 Level? [u.today]
Looking at the daily chart, BTC is still located within the descending channel. If the cryptocurrency cannot reach and fix at the $7,700 level, then the next bearish mark will be a move towards $6,000. If such a scenario comes true, then this level might be achieved during the first days of January 2020.
Bitcoin Price: Bear Pennant Targets $4,600, Has The Breakdown Begun? [newsbtc.com]
If the pattern is valid, Bitcoin price may have closed a daily candle outside of the pattern, suggesting that a breakdown is imminent. If a breakdown occurs, the bear pennant could have a measured target of as low as $4,600. Reaching such a low would nearly erase all of Bitcoin’s gains throughout the calendar year thus far, and take the asset back to prices not seen since April of this year.
For the past five days, Bitcoin was trading between $7300 to $7600. Despite a fake-out that reached the mentioned resistance area of $7700, Bitcoin was trading inside a descending channel, which can be seen on the following 4-hour chart. Adding negative indication coming on behalf of the Relative Strength Index (the RSI), as of now, it looks like Bitcoin would like to retest the $7000 area once again.

In the low-interest-rate environment that has characterized the post-GFC era, stock markets have soared to all-time highs, in part, as a result of the TINA Effect–There Is No Alternative.

Why Crypto Exchanges Should Lower Their Fees and Profit Margins [thebitcoinnews.com]
Some exchanges are taking steps to reduce charges, fees and spreads. After all there is already an associated network fee to pay so why should users of cryptocurrencies pay more to enrich the owners of exchanges. Poloniex is one that has offered zero fee trading until the end of the year but it remains to be seen yet if it will continue the practice into 2020. There are a few other smaller players that have also taken up this initiative but it is really time that the industry behemoths follow suit if they’re seriously interested in crypto adoption above their bottom lines.

- The enormous stress faced by the repo market could drive the Fed to officially start QE4.
The repo market has been relatively quiet since September when rates suddenly surged. The obscure yet vital aspect of America’s financial system grabbed headlines after interest rates spiked to 8%. The Federal Reserve was alarmed because the overnight repo rates stood at 2% a week before.
Today, Santander’s head of Digital Investment Banking, John Whelan opined that the bank has successfully redeemed the bond. According to Whelan, this “unequivocally proves that a debt security can be managed through its full lifecycle on a blockchain (public in this case).”

Whale Alert, the twitter account that monitors huge cryptocurrency transactions, noted that this bond had accrued a quarterly interest to the tune of $99,000.
Miner capitulation happens when Bitcoin mining ceases to be profitable. When miners sell off their holdings and turn off their rigs, it can accelerate a bear market.

Experts Agree: Bitcoin Interest in China Is Lagging [livebitcoinnews.com]
China is arguably the biggest bitcoin haven in the world. Home to two of the world’s largest crypto miners in Canaan Creative and Bitmain, the country has become rather “kind” and open-minded when it comes to digital currency despite several steps to seemingly shut them out before. Among the maneuvers taken to prevent crypto from getting “too big” were declaring initial coin offerings (ICOs) and foreign exchanges illegal in 2017 and 2018 respectively.
