Speaking with CNBC, he explained that we witness a strong wave on institutional and mass adoption, which will drive the interest towards cryptocurrency-based products.

Bitcoin's technical picture

From the longer-term perspective, BTC/USD took off from 50.0% Fibo retracement at $7,862. and managed to retun to the area above $8,000, which is definitely a positive sigh. Once the price stays above this level, there is a chance that the upside will be resumed with the initial aim at $8,300 on the upside. If the support is broken, the sell-off may be extended towards $7,595 (100-DMA).
