Crypto Brief Nov. 30: Bitcoin bulls attempts to boost ‘mega bull run’ plus Ethereum, EOS, Tron, Cardano, USDT, Bitcoin Cash, Huobi news
From the mega bull run potential of Bitcoin to Cardano’s upcoming ‘data dump’. These are some of the prominent news in the crypto space.
Bitcoin News
The bitcoin price has remained in a bear market going on for the past two years, despite a strong effort to break out of it throughout 2019.
After the crypto asset bottomed out at $ 3,100 in December 2018, the Bitcoin price continued to rise until it finally encountered resistance at the all-time high, where it suffered from declined back to the downtrend.
After Bitcoin fell through the support of $ 6,000 in November 2018, the price fell below the 2 years Exponential Moving Average (EMA). It regained its moving average multiplier in May and supported BTC for the rest of the 2019 rally.
1/ Looks like Bitcoin is trying to get back above the 2yr MA after it dipped below it in the past week when price capitulated.
Would be very bullish if we can get a few days closing back above that level.
Until then, cautious optimism (as it was a promising capitulation). pic.twitter.com/nk1njCZusk

The re-checking of the EMA occurred right where the BTC turned up coincided with the Chinese pump when President Xi Jinping commented that Blockchain was groundbreaking.
Bitcoin has broken below the EMA again recently and is currently making another attempt to once again break out above it.
Analysts now note that Bitcoin is clearly changing the recent downtrend to favor the bulls, which could mean a further imminent price increase for cryptocurrencies.
In the short term, analysts predict that cryptocurrencies will see higher returns.
HornHairs, a popular analyst on Twitter, said that he believes Bitcoin will mine the next $ 8,000.
$BTC gameplan remains the same
I won’t be shorting these levels blindly, rather waiting for support to fail on a retest. On the other hand, expectation for longs to be the higher probability play remains in tact.

Alex Krüger, a well-known economist who focuses primarily on cryptocurrencies, explained that Bitcoin is currently showing clear long-term bottom signals.
“My current $BTC roadmap. Should be obvious why I believed $8000 “will trade again soon”, it’s where downtrend accelerated. The bottom is textbook perfect, many people quit in rage, Bitmex funding about to turn positive. Nothing to chase if not long IMHO”.

If Bitcoin can regain EMA and break above the $ 8,000 in the near term, this will be a bullish signal for BTC and potentially push No.1 into a new bull cycle.
Whale transferred BTC
The transfer of BTC was still quite exciting when the price showed signs of recovery and moved to the area of $ 7,700.
Over the past 20 hours, 7 deliveries have been made. Only one transfer is made between the two exchanges. The remaining six transfers are made between the exchange and the unknown wallet.

Bitcoin Cash News
Bitcoin Cash participants are always drawn to zero-confirmation transactions and concepts such as proof of double-spending that can strengthen instant transactions.
Although it’s uncommon, double spending on digital currencies like BTC, BCH, and BSV can occur. The website doublespend.cash tracks the efforts and double expenditures of success for the Bitcoin Cash blockchain.

Redditor named Dagurval, Bitcoin XT software developer and creator of the data site, explained on Thursday that for double-spending to succeed, they had to be sent simultaneously.
Only 1 out of 1104 double spend attempts succeeded when broadcast more than 1 second later (new chart) from r/btc
Only 1 out of 1,104 double-spending attempts were successful when it aired more than 1 second later. “The chart ‘Time between first seen and second seen’ shows the time difference between viewing first transactions and double-spending. It proves that in most cases, only simultaneous sending can double your spend successfully”, Dagurval told BCH supporters.
