Crypto Industry News:
Asset management firm Devere Group says 82% of millionaires surveyed have asked their financial advisers to add cryptocurrencies like bitcoin to their investment portfolios.
Devere Group, a global financial advisory and asset management firm with $12 billion worth of assets traded worldwide, has released the results of its cryptocurrency survey. She found that among her millionaire clients with $1 million to $5 million in investable assets, 82% sought advice on investing in cryptocurrencies.
"In 2022, the cryptocurrency market hit its worst performance since 2018, with bitcoin down around 75% in a year," Nigel Green, CEO of Devere Group, commented on the report. He explained that the declines in cryptocurrency prices were due to investors reducing their "exposure to risky assets, including equities and cryptocurrencies, due to increased concerns about inflation and slower economic growth."
Devere Group survey participants are not the only ones who are positive about bitcoin. A recent study published by Nickel Digital Asset Management found that institutional investors expect 2023 to be a good year for bitcoin, with 65% of surveyed institutional investors agreeing that BTC could hit $100,000.
Technical Market Outlook:
The ETH market had broken out from the Triangle price pattern on the H4 time frame chart and made a new local high at the level of $1,695. The next target for bulls is seen at the level of $1,788 (September 2022 high). The nearest technical support is seen at $1,525 and $1,487. The key technical support is located at $1,350 and only clear and sustained breakout below this level would change the short-term outlook to bearish. Please keep an eye on the $1,487 technical support as any violation of this level would likely extend the drop towards $1,345, but in order to do this, the volatility must increase significantly.

Trading Outlook:
The Ethereum market has been seen making lower highs and lower low since the swing high was made in the middle of the August 2022 at the level of $2,029. The key technical support for bulls at $1,281 was broken already and the new swing low was established at $1,074. There is a clear test of the 50 WMA located at the level of $1,080, so any breakout below the moving average and a weekly candle close below moving average will be considered as another indication of the down trend continuation. If the down move will be extended, then the next target for bears is located at the level of $1,000.
