Bitcoin (BTC) is making its way to 11k as price managed to hold above the resistance of its range above 10,600 during the AM session and is currently trading above 10,800. We may see a push to 11,000 level (potential 50 MA resistance area) if price is able to maintain this level throughout the trading day. Otherwise, invalidation levels are around 10,000 - 9,800 - a break below could trigger selling pressure.
Global market cap is at $348B, while BTC's market cap is at $201B.

The Central Bank of The Bahamas has announced that it will launch a central bank issued cryptocurrency, dubbed "Sand Dollars," in October. The central bank digital currency (CBDC) is intended to drive greater financial inclusion among its remote islands, and will be subject to the same regulations as the Bahama dollar, with anti-money laundering and know-your-customer protections in place for the creation of accounts to use it.
Each Sand dollar is pegged to the Bahamian dollar, which is in turn pegged to the US dollar. New Sand dollars will be created as demand grows, with the digital currency exclusively issued alongside the retirement of Bahamian dollars to mitigate potential impacts on monetary supply.
