Major cryptos are gradually gaining momentum

Having risen steadily for the second day running, the crypto market capitalisation has returned to $2.19T, matching levels seen at the end of last week. Despite the weakened correlation between cryptocurrencies and US equities – and in many cases even a negative correlation – cryptocurrencies have nevertheless attracted buyer interest against a backdrop of a weakening dollar and falling oil prices. Looking at the broader picture, the battle for the 50-day moving average continues, meaning the market has yet to settle on a medium-term trend. Over the past day, popular coins ranged from -2.6% (Cardano) and -2.5% (NEAR Protocol, Stellar) to +2.4% (Basic Attention Token) and +6% (Zcash).

Bitcoin has risen to $64.3K, gaining momentum since Monday, when the bulls provided fairly strong support during the dip to local lows around $62.5K and pushed the price back above the 50-day moving average. For now, optimism is centred more on BTC than on the crypto market as a whole, which is typical of the early stages of a long-term market shift.

Moderately positive trends are prevailing in the US stock market pre-market.

With gains concentrated among market cap leaders in the technology sector, the market environment is more consistent with a risk-on mode: interest in risk assets remains strong, demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset is subdued, and the short-term dollar trend appears largely neutral.

Crypto took the stock market rally with caution

The crypto market capitalisation has risen by 1% over the past day to $2.21T, returning to the levels seen at the end of last month. Over the past 24 hours, the top performers among the most actively traded altcoins were Theta (+5.6%), SushiSwap (+4.2%) and Aptos (+3.2%). The biggest declines were seen in Aave (-3.4%), Basic Attention Token (-3.2%) and Algorand (-2.7%). The recovery in risk appetite across global markets has once again had a knock-on effect on cryptocurrencies, as hopes for the imminent adoption of the CLARITY Act fade and shares are increasingly seen as a competitor, drawing interest and capital away from cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin approached $65K, its highest level in five days. This achievement does not seem particularly significant against the backdrop of the impressive rally in US equity markets and the surge in precious metals prices on Wednesday. It appears that traders in the leading cryptocurrency do not consider this surge in risk appetite to be favourable for cryptocurrencies. In previous prolonged downtrends, confident buying by a broad range of participants began after the 200-day moving average turned upwards and the price consolidated above it. This approach does not allow one to buy at the lowest price, but it optimises the duration of the drawdown, given market uncertainty.

🇺🇸 US Pre-Market: Mostly Positive 📈

The US stock market is showing a positive trend in pre-market trading, with major technology and energy companies up, indicating increased risk appetite.

In the Information Technology sector, NVIDIA (NVDA) is up 1.18%, Apple (AAPL) is up 0.95%, while Microsoft (MSFT) is down 0.61%.

In the Communication Services sector, Alphabet (GOOGL) is down 0.31%.

In the Energy sector, Exxon Mobil (XOM) is up 1.33%, while Chevron (CVX) is up 1.27%.

The dominance of gains among the largest names by market cap is driving risk-on sentiment. Demand for the dollar as a safe-haven asset is limited, with investor interest shifting toward equities and, to some extent, Treasury yields. As a result, the dollar is likely to remain neutral or slightly subdued in the short term, with no clear momentum for appreciation.

▶️ Silver. Growth above $100

Today is Thursday, August sixth, and we're talking about the silver market — where things are getting really interesting.

Today we'll be looking at the daily chart. As a reminder, back in 2026 we saw a major correction that essentially cut the price of silver in half. But now there are strong reasons to believe that correction is over — and we're heading into a fairly sharp rally, with a minimum target range of eighty to one hundred dollars.

The crypto market continues to gather momentum for a breakout

The crypto market capitalisation has returned to the $2.19T level, retreating into its previous trading range following a flight from risk assets on Thursday evening and the continuation of this trend on Friday morning. The market remains indecisive just above its 50-day moving average, as bearish momentum has already petered out and buyers have found no reason to act. Over the past 24 hours, leading cryptocurrencies have mostly fluctuated between -2.5% and +1.5%. The biggest gains came from Cardano (+7%) and Algorand (+3.2%), while Near (-4.8%) and Avax (-3.9%) led the declines.

Bitcoin made another attempt yesterday to climb above $65K, but once again failed. The consolidation range has narrowed from $58K to $66K in June to just within $62K and $66K over the last 30 days. The good news here is the higher lower boundary, but without a break above recent highs, it is difficult to attract a wider audience of traders and convince them that the bear market is over. On the other hand, the longer the lull, the more dramatic the breakout from consolidation is likely to be. In this case, a breakout above $66K could prove to be a self-fulfilling prophecy, attracting those who have been on the sidelines for a long time.
