After running higher for several days, cryptocurrencies have now overcome and survived a potential storm. The upbeat technical picture shows that significant support is close for all top three cryptocurrencies, allowing them to rise.

Ethereum has the best potential, Bitcoin is looking good, while Ripple, despite being well-supported, may take its time. 

The SEC will kickstart a new consultation period for the long-awaited high-profile Van Eck / SolidX / CBOE Bitcoin ETF. Some eye early April as the date for the much-needed tool that can bring mainstream investors to digital currencies. The SEC will take its time to review the application.

This is what the Crypto Confluence Detector shows in its latest update:
