Here are the top three news stories over the past day presented to you by U.Today.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) on verge of breakdown
Judging by Shiba Inu's price charts, the meme crypto seems to be preparing for a potential breakdown. Following SHIB token's recent loss of more than 30% of its value on the SHIB/USDT chart, the asset is moving closer to what some investors believe may be the beginning of a protracted correction phase. Currently, SHIB is actively being tested, while the prior "comfort zones" are failing to deliver the rebound strength shown in past rallies. The immediate future of Shiba Inu will be determined by the asset's ability to sustain its support levels. If SHIB's price falls to 50% of its most recent top gains, this could indicate the end of the rally and potentially ignite a bear market for the token. On the positive side, if SHIB manages to consolidate and hold its current price, this could act as a springboard for future gains.
Elon Musk's Tesla and SpaceX Bitcoin holdings uncovered
In a recent X post, Arkham, the blockchain analysis platform, has provided data regarding the amount of Bitcoin held by Elon Musk's firms Tesla and SpaceX. The holdings of Tesla, reads Arkham's post, are currently standing at 11,510 BTC, which constitutes approximately $780 million, distributed across 68 addresses. SpaceX, in turn, owns 8,290 BTC worth about $560 million, dispersed across 28 addresses. Interestingly, this discovery contradicts Tesla's earlier disclosure in its Q4 report, in which the company stated it held 9,720 BTC. Thus, according to Arkham's findings, Tesla's Bitcoin holdings have surpassed the previously reported amount, indicating a potentially larger investment in the cryptocurrency than disclosed earlier.
