Bitcoin SV [BSV] Technical Analysis: BSV remains in the top-10 but fails to find momentum

Despite being just over two months old, Bitcoin SV has made its mark on the collective market. From being backed and lauded by Craig Wright as the true Bitcoin Cash to even overtaking BCH on the global coin ladder, for a brief spell albeit, BSV now caps off the top-10 and is ahead of major coins like Cardano [ADA], IOTA [MIOTA] and Monero [XMR].
