The Daily Dood for 2- 9 -18

Today's bitcoin high was about $9,021 USD on BitFinex

Bitcoin holding strong above $8k, this is great news. We peaked up over $9k for a moment. It looks like we bounced off that $8500 USD support line. Staying in a range between $8500 and our next level of resistance around $9227 would be a really strong sign of an ongoing recovery. I for one will breath a sigh of relief when we break through $10k and previous resistance turns to support above that level.

The Crypto Top 11

Altcoin market is looking really strong. Bitcoin dominance continues to drop. Currently at 34.23% and overall market cap continues to rise, currently above $434,000,000,000 up from yesterdays $383,000,000,000 usually a great indicator of a strong market.

Tweet of The Day

If Satoshi is alive it's admirable that he hasn't stepped forward or moved his coins. I believe he sees what he created is bigger than fame/wealth.
