Bitcoin s'arrache et il n'a que faire de la guerre

The cryptocurrency market has experienced a challenging year, prompting calls for renewed interest and strategic preparation. This sentiment was echoed by the product lead at X, formerly Twitter, who aims to reignite engagement in the crypto space. As of Tuesday, April 14, 2026, Bitcoin stands at $7400, showing a 5% increase over the last 24 hours. Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency, is trading at $776, even outperforming Bitcoin both weekly and monthly. Other cryptocurrencies showing positive momentum include Tron and Hyper Liquid, with Hyper Liquid experiencing a remarkable 750% surge over the week and 20% over the month, reaching $45. Chainlink is up 5%, Canton by 4%, and Avalanche and Sui are also performing well. In the top 30 cryptocurrencies, a new project called RaOo has emerged, reaching $11 with a market capitalization of $2.3 billion and an astonishing 4000% weekly gain, signaling a highly speculative environment. Uniswap is up 4%, Aave is recovering nearly 5% to exactly $100, and Pepe is up 6%. Rounding out the top 60, Walcoin is up 7%, Algorand 12%, and Morpho at 54th place is up 4%. Ethena closes out the top 60, positioned just above Atom Cosmos and Polygon (formerly Matic), which have market capitalizations between $850 million and $900 million. Geopolitical tensions between Iran and the United States continue to be a significant factor, with the US, through Donald Trump, threatening to block the Strait of Hormuz. However, the market currently appears unfazed by these threats. Oil prices are retreating, with UK Oil and US Oil at $97 and $98 per barrel, respectively. In the US equity markets, the Russell is surging towards an all-time high, currently at 2734, with the Nasdaq showing a three-week rebound, indicating that the market is not overly concerned at this time, though caution is advised regarding erratic bounces. The S&P 500 is also nearing its all-time high, trading at 6886 compared to 7012. European markets, including the Euro Stoxx 50 and 600, are also showing strong progression over the past month. However, there's a potential double impact from the Strait of Hormuz situation and inflation, which could affect commodity prices in the coming quarters. The full extent of these implications remains uncertain. The Federal Reserve is maintaining a restrictive stance, with no interest rate cuts anticipated in 2026. This contrasts with a market that appears to be searching for direction amidst global developments. The WPEA and CW8 funds saw a pause yesterday but are expected to open positively this morning, with portions around €6.19 and €6.15 respectively. The DXY (US Dollar Index) is declining to 98.3, indicating a relatively weak dollar against other currencies. Gold has rebounded, finding support at the median weekly RSI level after nearly touching the 50-day moving average at $4100 per ounce, now trading at $4772, highlighting significant volatility. In the cryptocurrency total market cap, stablecoins like USDC and USDT are holding steady around $0.11, while the crypto total market cap is at $2.5 trillion. The market has completed printing a "W" pattern and is currently trading between the 200-week moving average (around $2.1 trillion) and the 20-week moving average, acting as resistance around $2620. A break above this level could propel the market towards $2.9 to $3 trillion, with the 50-week moving average around $3.2 trillion. Bitcoin futures are trading at $74635, indicating a key polarity zone. The market is watching to see if significant upward momentum will develop this week. Bitcoin dominance remains stable around 60%, with a potential move towards the 50-day moving average around 60%+. Spot Bitcoin is trading around $74370, with key resistance zones between $75,760 and $77,000, including the 20-day moving average at $77,686. Further technical targets include Fibonacci levels at 83.7%, the 100-day moving average at 87.6%, and the 50-day moving average around 96.8%. Oscillators have been signaling price movements in advance, which is seen as a positive sign. Ethereum is showing similar trends, having recovered to around $1750 after dropping below the 200-day moving average. It is currently testing resistance between $2375 and $2400, with the 200-day moving average at $2445 and the 20-day moving average at $2475. A significant breakout above $3400 would be a strong indicator of Ethereum exiting its current struggles. The advice for both Bitcoin and Ethereum is to invest gradually over time based on individual convictions. Coinbase is attempting to reclaim its 200-day moving average, with the Clarity Act potentially influencing future developments. Circle's CRCL token is also showing promise, with the 20-day moving average defended at $85 and prices nearing $100. A breakout above $145-$153 is anticipated. MicroStrategy continues to accumulate Bitcoin, signaling a potential re-accumulation phase for long-term investors, although the downside for 2026 remains a concern. Oracle is up 13%, PayPal 5%, and Cher 7%. Microsoft has seen renewed interest, and Robinhood is trading positively, working towards its 100-day moving average at $65, with potential to reach $72. Oscillators for Robinhood suggest a positive outlook. In French equities, TotalEnergies is trading with volatility around €80. Despite its potential to reach higher levels, the current upward movement has already occurred, making it less attractive for new entry points. Air Liquide, after a period of underperformance, is now trading at $187.5, approaching a new all-time high, though its oscillators are high. While Air Liquide is a long-term growth stock, buying during a significant upward move is not recommended unless it retraces to its 200-day moving average. Among altcoins, Algorand appears to be finding a bottom. Investors are advised to examine fundamentals and compare projects against Bitcoin, Ethereum, or Solana to identify genuine upward trends. Lido is up 4%, and Hyper Liquid has seen extraordinary growth since January 2026, more than doubling in value from $20 to $45. Despite personal investment, caution is advised due to the history of rapid ascents and descents in new crypto projects. Tron (TRX) is performing well, driven by stablecoin activity on its blockchain. Binance Coin (BNB) is holding steady at $615, though it has been more bearish against Bitcoin since October 2025. Injective is attempting to stabilize around $3, and Solana, while currently below its 200-day moving average, is expected to benefit from a market recovery. Tether (USDT) is correcting towards its 20-day moving average but not catastrophically. Chainlink is forming a double bottom, with potential to reach $9.50-$10 and subsequently $12.46-$13.40. While Chainlink is considered fundamental to the crypto industry, its token's performance is a separate consideration. Aave has recovered to $100 after touching $85.60, with potential to reach $115 and then $135, targeting the 100-day moving average at $193 and the 50-day moving average around $210-$211. Aave is seen as a solid project, navigating regulatory changes and continuing to advance decentralized finance. The Japanese Topix has had a strong session, reaching 0.7350 points. The VIX, an index of fear and volatility, is at 20 points, indicating a lack of market panic. The US President's diminishing influence on market narratives allows for more stability. The US economy remains resilient, but the full impact of the Iran situation on the global economy over the coming quarters and years is yet to be fully understood.
