Crypto Industry News:

The creation of regulations for cryptocurrencies is not a priority for the Russian government, because cryptocurrencies have lost their popularity, the Russian prime minister recently argued. Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev's comments have been reported by the Russian news agency Fontanka.

According to Medvedev, cryptocurrencies are no longer so interesting to the population, which reduces the need to adopt cryptographic regulations:

"The current popularity of cryptocurrencies has decreased, which makes the problem of regulation no longer so important"- He said.

Speaking at the annual international forum, Medvedev noted that this problem was widely discussed in the previous forum in May 2018, when he called on the government to establish at least some basic cryptographic terms. While the buzz around the Bitcoins has dropped, there is still a chance that the cryptographic markets will come alive, the Prime Minister has reportedly summed up.

This news appeared in the first major growth of crypto markets in 2019, when Bitcoin increased from an average threshold of $ 4,000 to over $ 8,000 in 45 days, starting from April 1.

Trading Recommendations:

The larger time frame trend remains bullish, so in the longer term, it is better to have a buy position on Bitcoin and open the sell positions only in the lower time-frames like H1 or H4.
