Cryptocurrencies use cryptographic protocols, or extremely complex code systems that encrypt sensitive data transfers, to secure their units of exchange.
Despite the concerning news and slight pullback in traditional markets, BTC and ETH prices rose, a dynamic that analysts such as Anthony Pompliano refer to as “asymmetric price action” where investors see a red hot stock market and unsustainable central bank monetary policymaking risk-on assets like Bitcoin as attractive investments and hedges against gold, the dollar and inflation.

Clear regulation would mean the removal of a “significant roadblock for cryptocurrency,” says Wang, since U.S. firms and investors are operating without clear guidelines at the moment.
The demand for a cryptocurrency depends on many factors. Demand will be increased based on how useful it is to own the coins. This means if the crypto monetary system works well (i.e. fast transactions and low fees), if smart contracts become more commonplace, and if more businesses start to accept crypto, the demand for crypto will increase. Additionally, there is an increased demand for cryptocurrencies as a store of value investment.
Binance, the original platform, despite its many outages in recent months, stands out from its U.S. counterpart. The range of cryptocurrencies, features, and ease of use far out does Binance.US. Many hope that the number of faults and outages will reduce going forward.
At each point information from neighbouring data is used. As the time series considered are finite, the areas at the start and end of the data (especially at higher period bands) will not have all the data required. One solution to make computation possible, chosen here, is to pad the time series with zeros where required. However, the zero padding will impact the reliability of the results. It is standard to use a cone of influence to represent this difference in reliability of results. Pale colours represent those areas outside the cone of influence with less reliable results (as seen on Fig 3). Higher period bands require more data for computation resulting in the cone shape.
