Cryptocurrencies Price Prediction: Bitcoin, Ethereum & Stellar Lumens – European Wrap 28 April

BTC/USD: The Bitcoin traders are less fearful as the price gains 23% on a month-on month basis

At press time, BTC/USD is sidelined near 7,700. The near-term bias remains neutral while the price is moving within the current trading range of 7,500-$8,000. A breakout will likely pave the way for a strong move in the direction of the breakthrough. Bitcoin's current market capitalization is $142 billion, which is 64% of the total market value. The first digital asset has stayed mostly unchanged both on a day-to-day basis and since the beginning of Tuesday.
