The Bitcoin Network power steadily grows and sets a record high 

The latest hash rate numbers released to the public have shown that the Bitcoin network is close to 8 times more powerful than it previously was when it had hit the $20k mark, at the end of 2017.

According to the data obtained from Blockchain.com, the Bitcoin network’s total hash rate hit a 79 TH/s earlier this week. The highest this number had been was 70 Trillion Tera hashes per second (TH/s). The Hash rate is essentially the standard measure of determining the amount of computer power that is spent on the security of a given network. This means that a higher TH/s indicates an equally strong network.

The Bitcoin network has experienced very consistent growth in its power in the last few months. We have seen it surpass the all-time high mark a couple of times. This is how the figures have been looking like:

• June 21st – 65 Trillion TH/s
• July 1st – 70 Trillion TH/s
• July 20th – 79 Trillion TH/s.

Despite the price of BTC standing at almost half of its all-time high, we can see that the size and power of its network have been experiencing gradual growth. The only deduction we can make from this is that its market trends are becoming more substantial, in comparison to the way they were back in 2017. According to a large number of BTC pundits, the price of BTC will stabilize between $10,000 and $11,000 before making another bull run that will see it break past the $20,000 mark, and potentially make a $40,000 peak.

Another thing that has been observed within the Bitcoin network is that the transaction fees have been consistently dropping, despite the consistent changes in the price and the volume. This, when combined with the growth of the network power indicates that there are high prospects of the coin’s widespread adoption, which are two very crucial factors that are meant to contribute to the increase of the prices of Bitcoin in the future.

Bullish market trends continue in the gold market

The prices of gold have continued to hold on consistently above $1400 per ounce, in the past week. The earlier price declines led to people making aggressive purchases, which again offset a bullish run.

Investors are also on the wait for cuts that the Federal Reserve, as well as specific central banks, make, as this always impacts on the prices of gold. When the rates are lowered by these financial institutions, the value of the gold market rises. This means that we shall soon be seeing an increase in the prices of gold.

It is expected that the next Bull Run will leave the price of gold at $1500 per ounce. This will come as a very significant milestone, and if it is achieved, there will be a fresh supply of cash into the markets. This will set up an increase in the price of gold to the $2000 per ounce mark.

This happens to be the best time to exploit the consistent growth that has been observed in the gold market. Indicators point to the bullish trends continuing, and this presents a very suitable opportunity for you to experience growth in the value of your assets. Take action promptly so that you can maximize the returns from your investments.
