This morning, sales volumes have decreased, and the BTC price has rebounded to the $40,700 area. On such small volumes, one should not count on a significant recovery.

If the bears resume the onslaught again, they can break through the psychological level of $40,000 and roll back the price to the area of ​$​38,500.

Bitcoin is trading at $40,411 at press time.

XRP/USD

Yesterday morning, in the area of ​​average prices, buyers failed to seize the initiative from sellers. The decline in the price of the flagship cryptocurrency caused the XRP/USD pair to fall below the strong support of $0.80. At night, the price of XRP pierced the level of $0.77, at which the fall stopped.

Over the past night, buyers have slightly restored the price, but the volume of purchases is now too small, and it is not yet possible to break through above the level of $0.80. If buyers can form a bullish momentum, the pair will be able to consolidate above the $0.80 level.

If the bearish pressure continues, then the price of XRP may roll back to the support of $0.70.

XRP is trading at $0.7785 at press time.
