Crypto.com Chain / Bitcoin Medium-term price analysis
Crypto.com Chain has a neutral bias against Bitcoin over the medium-term, with the CRO / BTC pair trading around the 50% Fibonacci retracement level of its all-time price low to high.
During the most recent rally, which peaked on March 15th, bulls failed to break above the CRO / BTC pair’s current all-time price high, sending the cryptocurrency back towards the 50 % Fibonacci retracement level.
