Two cryptocurrencies, LITECOIN and BITCOINCASH have been gaining vigorously recently and continued their gains today as Bitcoin tries to climb above $31,000. Bitcoincash has risen with gains of nearly 100% over the past week and with Litecoin they are are practically the two oldest cryptocurrencies, which the SEC did not list in its filing in which it indicated which cryptocurrencies it considers 'securities'.
- Both Litecoin and Bitcoincash are built on Bitcoin's source code, and during the recent bull rallies have been unable to match the scale of growth of new projects, including Ethereum (which the SEC is also hesitant to designate as a commodity).
- Institutional exchange EDX Markets, backed by Citadel, Virtu Financials and Charles Schwab, has made cryptocurrency trading available on its platform - only 'old school' cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoincash are listed there.
- EDX CEO Jamil Nazarali conveyed that he is extremely comfortable with the fact that none of these four cryptocurrencies have been recognized as 'securities' by the SEC. The relatively low liquidity and depth of the market, as well as the lack of regulatory uncertainty around the projects, has helped the bulls
- According to DeCrypt data, the rally in Litecoin's spot price since June 15 has been supported mainly by retail investors as the value of trades in the $10 to $10,000 USD range has far exceeded the volume of larger trades in recent times.
LITCOIN is climbing to record levels since April 2022, the price has overcome the 23.6 Fibonacci retracement of upward wave from June 2022, and if the dynamic rally continues - the key for the bulls will be a decisive break of resistance at $100, which could open the way to new yearly peaks.
