Top 3 Bullish Crypto News

Ethereum’s merge has definitely made an impact on crypto prices. However, there is other fundamental news that also affected the general sentiment in the crypto market. Investors often look at the macro picture to try and assess the overall market sentiment, instead of looking at a single event. Here are 3 bullish crypto news that happened in the past week.

#1 Fidelity Investments might add Bitcoin trading for individual investors

When a well-established and mainstream company decides to open its doors to crypto investors, crypto traded volumes often increase. Fidelity is a multinational US company based in Boston. Back in 2018, it opened Bitcoin trading for hedge funds and other big institutional investors. Today, it is considering opening this same door to individual investors. The company already has more than 34 million brokerage accounts. Not only will this help the average Joe enter the crypto market, but this will create higher demand for Bitcoin, thus potentially higher prices.

#2 Starbucks enters Web3.0

Starbucks announced its first “digital community” which will promote its loyalty program. This will allow its loyal customers to earn and buy digital goods that unlock special experiences and incentives, thus blending the business’s popular Starbucks Rewards loyalty program with a new unique NFT platform.

#3 Microstrategy Buy more Bitcoins

Microstrategy is famous for being a traditional company stocking up on Bitcoins. Its first purchase started back in August 2020, during the early beginnings of the crypto bullrun. However, with the latest crypto price drop, the company is deeply in the red. This has been a highly controversial topic, as its executive chairman and co-founder Michael J. Saylor is the one who has been pushing the Bitcoin narrative. He believes that it was the best course of action despite Bitcoin losing more than 68% from its peak.

However, the company recently purchased an additional $500,000,000 worth of Bitcoins at an average price of around $21,000, thus lowering their average price. This purchase is likely to push the crypto market higher, especially since other events are unfolding in the crypto sphere.
