Bitcoin is pricing at $ 30,051 with a 0.56% gain in value as of today morning hours. After the rise in Bitcoin with positive news flows, we see that the price is trying to catch permanence above 30,000.

In case of a downward break of the 30,000 level in Bitcoin, our next support zones are at 29,000.

ETH, which gained 0.71% as of morning hours, is priced at $ 1885.

After the decline in Ethereum to the 1860 region, we can say that there is a small rise in Ethereum and the target level is again the 1930 region.
