Bitcoin traded between $60,000 and $62,000, keeping the broader crypto market steady with observers split on what the Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell will say at Friday’s Jackson Hole meeting. “Given the good CPI reading last Wednesday, we’re likely to get a dovish Powell tone Friday,” Amberdata said in the weekly newsletter, hinting at a potential favorable development for risk assets, including cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, the crypto-options-focused tech platform SignalPlus said Powell might be cautious. Over at Deribit, the options market isn’t anticipating a Powell-induced volatility explosion. “Single-day BTC options indicate a 2.5% price swing [in either direction],” Martin Cheung, head of options trading at Pulsar, told CoinDesk. Markus Thielen, founder of 10x Research, said the setup looks good, with the ascending triangle pointing to a minor rally.
