ETH\/USD hit an intraday low of $2,585.95, its lowest level since February 3. The impending fall cross of the 10-day and 25-day moving averages, which only recently gave vital signs of more rising momentum, has been delayed by this minor bounce.<\/p>\n

BTC\/USD fell to a low of $37,358.00 to begin the trading week after reaching a high of $39,394.44 on Sunday. BTC fell to its lowest level since February 4 as it approached its long-term support of $37,200. The crypto\u2019s price strength is now fully oversold, with the 14-day RSI tracking at 39, its lowest level in more than three weeks. The most recent BTC drop on February 21 brought the world\u2019s leading cryptoasset close to $37,000, but a surprise bounce in the late hours Monday saw BTC trade at $38,607.

There were about 275K daily active entities on the Bitcoin network as Tuesday. This activity level was significantly lower than its bull market highs, indicating decreasing demand from new customers. Sustained Liquidations Deal Heavy Blow On Bitcoin Prices However, Bitcoin\u2019s long liquidations continued, with more than $30 million drained in just one hour, the second-highest hourly amount in four days and the third-highest hourly amount in nearly a month. The Bitcoin price drop appeared to shake up the market and market players; nevertheless, the coin seemed to make some attempts at recovery. BTC is trading at $37,792.12, down 1.57% Tuesday. On the upside, the price could run across resistance near $37,800. The next significant resistance is near $38,200, above which the price might rise to $39,500.
