BlockBeats News, December 4—Wolfe Research stated that now is a good time to buy cryptocurrencies on dips. The current crypto market is showing a clear divergence between bulls and bears, creating a potential buying opportunity. The firm still expects Bitcoin’s interim bottom to be around $75,000, even after Bitcoin rebounds and regains the $90,000 level. However, Wolfe also pointed out that Bitcoin ETF inflows remain weak and digital assets overall continue to be under widespread downward pressure. From a technical perspective, the crypto market has returned to a key long-term support area, which has served as a turning point for prices multiple times in the past. Momentum indicators are improving, and Bitcoin’s current rebound is seen as constructive. Wolfe believes the next major test is the 50-day moving average at $101,000.

PANews, December 4—According to Bloomberg, the EU executive body has announced plans to transfer more regulatory and enforcement powers to its market regulator, sparking debate over national regulators ceding authority to Brussels. The proposal released Thursday shows that the Paris-based European Securities and Markets Authority will have new powers over significant clearinghouses, central securities depositories, and trading venues. Less than a year after the EU introduced a national regulatory regime for cryptocurrency companies, these companies and pan-European market operators will now fall under the authority of this agency. The centralization of most EU market regulatory powers requires approval from the European Parliament and the Council of Member States, with some member states strongly opposed. The core of the proposal is to strengthen the European Securities and Markets Authority's powers and resources, establishing a board of directors composed of five independent members with terms of up to five years. Preparation costs will be covered by the EU budget, while trading venues, central securities depositories, and crypto asset service providers will bear the rest.
