After reaching a record high of $123,200, Bitcoin is now consolidating around the $118,000 level. Market participants remain on alert as top analyst Darkfost reported a major development involving one of the oldest and most closely watched wallets in crypto history. According to the analyst, the remaining 40,000 BTC—valued at approximately $4.75 billion—still held by the 80K Satoshi-era whale have all moved. Related Reading: Bitcoin Retail Demand Rebounds – $0–$10K Transfer Volume Turns Positive The shift began last night, signaling renewed activity from the early Bitcoin holder. Until now, only half of the whale’s holdings had been moved, while the rest remained dormant. This latest transfer marks the full mobilization of the entire 80,000 BTC once controlled by the entity. While the motive behind the move remains unknown, the market is watching closely for signs of potential selling or redistribution. Bitcoin’s ability to hold above key support levels despite this high-stakes movement may reflect strong demand and investor confidence. However, with $4.75 billion now in motion, traders are bracing for possible volatility ahead. The market is waiting to see if this event will trigger broader implications—or if it’s simply a strategic reshuffling from one of the ecosystem’s earliest whales. Satoshi-Era BTC Consolidates Into Single Address Darkfost highlighted a major on-chain development that has captured the market’s attention: Each of the four wallets, previously holding 10,000 BTC from the 80K whale, sent their funds to a single destination address bc1qs4nzm0je7wqfyfmqr4ht4upyzy57vc95nf4au0. This address now holds the entire $4.75 billion stash, raising new questions about the intent behind the move. According to Darkfost, while the pattern differs from previous sell-off precedents, the market must remain alert. “I guess these BTC might also end up hitting the market soon,” he commented. This kind of movement—especially from dormant, high-value wallets—often signals large-scale positioning, which can precede either institutional sales or strategic long-term storage. The timing coincides with rising bullish momentum across the crypto market. With Bitcoin consolidating above $118,000 following its $123,200 all-time high, traders are eyeing a potential breakout. Adding fuel to this outlook, all three key crypto-related bills were passed by the US House this week, removing significant regulatory uncertainty and clearing a path for broader adoption.

This breakout follows a prolonged consolidation just below the $110,000 resistance, which acted as a ceiling for several months. Now turned support, the $109,300 and $103,600 zones are critical demand levels, offering a firm foundation for continuation if bulls maintain control. The structure of the recent weekly candles reflects bullish dominance, characterized by strong bodies and relatively small upper wicks. This suggests controlled profit-taking and growing confidence from buyers. Meanwhile, volume is picking up, confirming participation in the breakout and hinting at the possibility of sustained momentum in the coming weeks.

As Bitcoin consolidates above former resistance, this zone may now serve as a launchpad for a move toward the next psychological target at $130,000. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Bitcoin has officially entered a new chapter in its bull market, surging to fresh all-time highs near $118,800 after weeks of tight consolidation. This decisive breakout marks a pivotal shift in momentum, with analysts pointing to a potential explosive leg higher as bullish sentiment returns. The move above previous highs has not only reignited interest in BTC but also fueled optimism across the broader crypto market. Related Reading: Ethereum Targets Liquidity Above $3,000 – Price Magnet Forming One of the most telling indicators of the current cycle’s strength is Bitcoin Dominance. According to top analyst On-Chain Mind, BTC dominance has climbed to 65% since the beginning of this bull market. This sharp increase highlights a clear preference among investors for Bitcoin over altcoins, solidifying its position as the market’s anchor in times of volatility and growth. As Bitcoin leads the charge, market watchers believe the breakout could trigger a wave of institutional inflows and renewed attention from sidelined retail investors. With momentum building and confidence growing, the breakout above $118K may just be the start of an even larger move, one that could define the next phase of the 2025 crypto bull cycle. Bitcoin Leads The Charge After weeks of sideways consolidation below the $110,000 mark, Bitcoin has finally broken out, launching a new bullish phase and pushing the broader crypto market into motion. Altcoins, which had lagged in recent months, are now climbing above key resistance levels as confidence spreads. This coordinated move comes amid a backdrop of macroeconomic shifts, with market participants increasingly anticipating a weakening US dollar and the return of inflationary policies under US President Donald Trump’s administration. With expectations of rate cuts looming and pressure mounting on the Federal Reserve, the market sees crypto—especially Bitcoin—as a natural hedge. However, caution still lingers. US Treasury yields remain elevated, continuing to flash warnings of systemic stress in the traditional financial system. That tension has only strengthened Bitcoin’s appeal as a non-sovereign, hard-capped monetary asset. Bitcoin dominance tells the story clearly. “At the start of this bull market, it sat at 40%. Today? 65%,” noted On-Chain Mind, emphasizing how investor preference has overwhelmingly leaned toward BTC. This dominance reflects a trend that has barely flinched, even as Ethereum and other altcoins attempt to catch up. As BTC leads the market higher, its dominance reinforces its role as the primary beneficiary of macro uncertainty. While the altcoin space is beginning to show signs of life, it’s clear that Bitcoin remains the anchor, and investors aren’t ready to rotate just yet.

Price surged from the long-standing resistance at $109,300 to a local high of $118,000 in less than twelve hours, marking an 8% rally. This breakout flipped prior resistance into support and triggered strong volume, validating the move. Volume has decreased during this period, which is characteristic of a bullish consolidation rather than distribution. The 50-period moving average (blue) has crossed above the 100-period (green), forming a short-term golden cross near $109K. This crossover supports a bullish outlook, with the 200-period moving average (red) trending upward from $105K, reinforcing the structure of higher lows. Related Reading: Altcoins Jump Off Critical Support Level – Relief Or Reversal? As long as Bitcoin remains above $112K, bulls are firmly in control.

Bitcoin has officially broken through its previous all-time high of $112,000, surging to $118,000 just hours ago and entering uncharted territory for the first time since late May. The breakout confirms bullish momentum after weeks of consolidation and failed attempts, with price action now showing clear strength. With the psychological and technical barrier of $112K cleared, many analysts believe this move could mark the beginning of Bitcoin’s next expansive rally. Related Reading: Altcoins Jump Off Critical Support Level – Relief Or Reversal? Bulls are firmly in control, and on-chain metrics support this breakout narrative. According to fresh data from CryptoQuant, the MVRV (Market Value to Realized Value) Extreme Deviation Pricing Bands currently stand at 2.25. Historically, Bitcoin enters the overheated zone around 3.0 or higher, suggesting there is still room for growth before reaching excessive valuation territory. This metric, which measures the deviation between market price and realized value, helps identify when BTC is overbought or undervalued relative to past performance. At current levels, the data points to continued upside potential without major overheating concerns, fueling confidence that this breakout could extend further. Bitcoin Enters Expansion Phase As Market Eyes $130K After weeks of tight consolidation below the $110,000 mark, Bitcoin has finally broken out, signaling the start of a new market phase. The breakout above previous highs has reignited investor optimism, not only for BTC but also for the broader altcoin market, with many altcoins now pushing above key resistance levels for the first time in months. This move comes amid growing anticipation of a weakening US dollar and renewed inflationary pressures as Washington adopts looser fiscal policies. The market is increasingly pricing in the effects of tax cuts, high government spending, and dovish political rhetoric—all of which create a favorable environment for risk assets like Bitcoin. Still, the macro backdrop is not without risks. US Treasury yields remain elevated, flashing warnings of underlying systemic stress in credit markets. This tension underscores the fragility of the current rally and the importance of monitoring fundamental shifts. Top analyst Axel Adler shared insights using the MVRV oscillator, a model that compares Bitcoin’s market value to its realized value. According to Adler, historical data over the last four years suggests that when MVRV reaches 2.75, Bitcoin tends to face its first wave of meaningful selling pressure. If the same pattern holds true in this cycle, Bitcoin could reach approximately $130,900 before seeing notable profit-taking activity. While the current MVRV reading remains below that threshold, the model offers a clear signal of where long-term holders may begin offloading. Until then, the breakout sets the stage for a potential leg higher, with bulls now in control, pushing toward price discovery and a possible test of the $130K zone. Related Reading: Ethereum Back At Range Highs: Breakout Above $2,800 Could Ignite Altseason BTC Enters Uncharted Territory With Strong Momentum Bitcoin has officially broken into price discovery after blasting through its all-time high resistance near $112,000. The 3-day chart shows a massive bullish candle pushing BTC up to $118,683, representing an 8.94% gain in the last session. This breakout is the first clear sign of a strong bullish continuation after weeks of sideways consolidation below key resistance. The chart highlights a textbook breakout structure. BTC respected the $103,600 and $109,300 support zones multiple times throughout May and June before finally gaining enough momentum to pierce through the upper resistance. The recent surge came with a noticeable spike in volume, adding confidence to the breakout’s sustainability. Moving averages also confirm the bullish trend. The 50, 100, and 200 SMA lines remain aligned upward with increasing separation, suggesting that market structure remains strong and trend continuation is likely. Bitcoin is now trading well above all major moving averages, reinforcing the strength of the rally.

As long as BTC holds above $112K, the momentum remains decisively in favor of the bulls. Featured image from Dall-E, chart from TradingView
Bitcoin has set a new all-time high (ATH) above $112,000, and if on-chain data is to go by, there is some real conviction behind the move. Bitcoin Realized Cap Shows ATH Breakout Not Just Speculative In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has talked about the latest trend in the “Realized Cap” of Bitcoin. The Realized Cap is a capitalization model that calculates the asset’s total value by assuming that the ‘true’ value of each coin in circulation is equal to the price at which it was last transacted on the network. Related Reading: Bitcoin Moving With Stocks, But Ethereum’s Correlation Is Fading This is different from the methodology that the usual market cap employs, where all tokens part of the supply are assigned the same value: the current Bitcoin spot price. The last transaction of any token is likely to represent the last time that it changed hands on the network, so the price at that time could be considered as its current cost basis. Since the Realized Cap sums up this value for all coins, its value essentially represents a net cost basis for the entire supply. In other words, the model can be looked at as a measure of the amount of capital that the investors as a whole have put into the cryptocurrency. In contrast, the market cap is the value that the holders are carrying in the present. During the past day, the Bitcoin market cap saw a surge as the spot price set a new record. But what about the Realized Cap? “Unlike market cap, Realized Cap reflects actual capital inflows – only rising when coins move at higher prices,” notes the analytics firm. Here is the chart shared by Glassnode, showing whether or not real capital inflows occurred for Bitcoin with this rally: As displayed in the above graph, the Bitcoin Realized Cap has been following an upward trajectory for a while now, suggesting capital inflows have been coming into the asset. With the latest price surge, too, the metric has seen a leg up, corresponding to a whopping $4.4 billion flowing into the coin. “The $4.4B jump as $BTC broke a new ATH above $112K confirms real conviction behind the move, not just speculative markup,” explains the analytics firm. In some other news, the Bitcoin Market Value to Realized Value (MVRV) Ratio is currently sitting around the 2.25 mark, as CryptoQuant author Axel Adler Jr has pointed out in an X post. The MVRV Ratio measures the ratio between the Bitcoin market cap and Realized Cap. From the chart, it’s visible that BTC encountered resistance the last few times the metric hit a value around 2.75.

After hitting a one-week low on Thursday, Bitcoin (BTC) is attempting to reclaim the key $104,000-$105,000 area as support, but some analysts have warned that a visit to its range’s lows could be in BTC’s short-term future if volatility continues. Related Reading: ONDO To Repeat 2024’s ‘Parabolic’ Run? Analyst Anticipates 130% Rally Soon Bitcoin to Continue Choppy Performance On Thursday afternoon, Bitcoin dropped 5.5% to the $102,000 support fueled by the news of the Iran-Israel conflict. Amid the market pullback, the flagship crypto failed to hold its $108,000-$110,000 three-day range, falling to the mid-zone of its post-November breakout range. Notably, BTC had just recovered from last week’s retest of the $100,000 level, reclaiming the key $106,800 area as support earlier this week. Daan Crypto Trades noted that the cryptocurrency “saw a clear trigger on that retest of the range high,” driven by the headlines of the Middle East turmoil, as it is “still quite a volatile and headline-driven market currently.” Bitcoin took the liquidity above and below its local price range, the analyst explained, adding that it is “already starting to trade more like the choppy (pre) summer environment” he had forecasted. Despite the drop, the analyst highlighted that the range high remains the key level for a larger move up: I think the range high is a key area for the Bulls to hold on to. If not, I think there’s a case to be made for a local high to be put in and for the market to move back further within this range. At this point, I’m fairly certain that if price breaks either the current monthly high or low, it will keep trending that direction for the rest of June (and possibly beyond). However, he suggested investors be cautious until BTC price breaks back above the range high convincingly and holds it as support on the higher timeframes. “Don’t chop yourself up in the next few weeks/months,” he warned. Volatility Could Send BTC To Range Lows Analyst Carl Runefelt from The Moon Show highlighted a potential double top pattern forming on BTC’s 4H chart, noting that if the price didn’t bounce from the previous descending resistance, reclaimed a week ago, it could further drop into the mid-zone of its range. According to the analysis, if it loses the mid-range, BTC could risk a retest of the range lows, around the $90,000-$92,000 area. Similarly, market watcher Merlijn The Trader suggested that Bitcoin could fill the lower CME gaps if the war narrative intensifies. BTC opened two CME gaps between the end of April and the start of May, situated at the $92,500 and $97,300 levels, respectively. Nonetheless, the trader considers that this could serve as a discount entry for investors, as BTC “already left higher CME gaps open,” signaling that a rebound to the levels is likely. Moreover, he noted that Bitcoin is displaying the same structure as last year, which could hint at a massive rally brewing. In 2024, the cryptocurrency faced rejection from a multi-month descending resistance following its all-time high (ATH) rally, which set the Range high level. Related Reading: Ethereum Prepares For Massive Run After $2,800 Reclaim – ‘Up Only’ Ahead? According to the post, after the liquidity grab, BTC broke out of the key downtrend line, was rejected from the range high, and retested the descending resistance as support before a new rally. In 2025, Bitcoin appears to be following this path, currently retesting the descending resistance after the breakout. “If you know the pattern, you know what comes next,” he concluded.

As Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to turn the $110,000 resistance into support, some analysts believe its price discovery rally has just started, forecasting new highs for the flagship crypto. Related Reading: Avalanche Slides Off The Edge – What Comes After The 4H Trendline Snap? Bitcoin Starts Second Price Discovery Uptrend Last week, Bitcoin’s momentum propelled its price to its new all-time high (ATH) of $111,814 before retracing to its current range. Over the weekend, Bitcoin confirmed its breakout into its second Price Discovery Uptrend, following its successful retest of the $104,500 mark as support. The cryptocurrency has been in a significant market recovery for over a month, rallying nearly 50% from April lows. Analyst Rekt Capital noted that BTC ended its downside deviation period and positioned itself for a retest of its key re-accumulation range during early May’s surge, which was successfully reclaimed and surpassed. The analyst considers that its new Price Discovery Uptrend has “only just begun,” as Bitcoin starts Week 2 of this phase. Rekt Capital highlighted that this cycle has been “a story of Re-Accumulation Ranges,” which signals that a new range will likely form after this Price Discovery. Meanwhile, history suggests a second Price Discovery Correction is ahead as Bitcoin transitions into its new Price Discovery Uptrend. During its future correction, BTC will likely retrace between 25%-35% “to produce yet another Downside Deviation below the Re-Accumulation Range Low (future orange circle) before resuming upside into a likely Price Discovery Uptrend 3.” In the meantime, “All Bitcoin needs to do is hold above the Re-accumulation Range High of $104,500” to continue its price discovery rally. $110,000 Breakout Next? Notably, the flagship crypto has been retesting the range high as support over the past two weeks, confirming the breakout. As such, dipping into the previous $92,000-$104,500 range’s upper zone could happen as “part of normal volatility.” Moreover, it turned another key resistance, the $102,500 mark, into support during this period, which it had previously been rejected from in January 2025. With these levels as support, Rekt Capital considers that only the December 2024 and January 2025 upwicks, at $108,353 and $109,588, stand in the way of additional Price Discovery. Trader Daan Crypto Trades noted that Bitcoin is “still strong but fighting around its previous all-time high from earlier this year.” He pointed out that price action looks “very choppy” in the lower timeframes, but it shouldn’t be concerning for investors if the price remains within its current range. Related Reading: XRP ETF At 83% Approval Odds—Is The SEC Losing Grip? Analyst MacroCRG affirmed that Bitcoin must officially reclaim the $110,000 level to continue its rally, as it marks the previous ATH and the Value Area High (VAH) from last week. “Acceptance above and we likely squeeze straight into price discovery again,” CRG stated. Currently, Bitcoin is retesting its Weekly opening of $109,004 as support, which could set the stage for a breakout above the $110,000 mark if held. Meanwhile, rejection from this area could send BTC price to the $106,000-$108,000 area. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $109,181, a 1.4% increase in the daily timeframe.

Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a new all-time high (ATH) after a 4% daily breakout above the $109,000 mark. As the flagship crypto nears the next barrier, some analysts suggest that this cycle’s top isn’t in yet. Related Reading: SUI Preparing For Another Leg Up – Is $5 The Next Target? Bitcoin Hits New All-Time High On Wednesday, Bitcoin hit a new ATH of $109,800 after breaking out of the $107,000 short-term resistance, eyeing the $110,000 barrier as its next target. The cryptocurrency has significantly recovered over the last seven weeks, surging around 47% from its five-month low of $74,000 toward its current levels. Amid its May rally, BTC couldn’t break the crucial $106,000 resistance, trading between the $102,000-$105,000 range for nearly two weeks. However, its consolidation ended over the weekend as Bitcoin Weekly Closed above this barrier for the first time in history. Since reclaiming this crucial level on Monday, Analyst Ali Martinez pointed out that the flagship crypto appeared to be forming an ascending triangle pattern in the lower timeframes, which suggested a rally toward the $115,000 level once the price broke above the $107,000 mark. In the early hours of Wednesday, BTC’s bullish breakout saw it retest the $108,000 barrier, facing rejection toward the $106,000 support before bouncing and smashing this barrier and rallying toward its new ATH. Rekt Capital affirmed that the Second Price Discovery Uptrend is ahead for the cryptocurrency, as its First Price Discovery Correction is finally over. The analyst previously highlighted that Bitcoin would rally to a new ATH after Weekly Closing above its re-accumulation range and post-breakout retest. BTC Preparing For Another 20%-30% Jump? Analyst crypto Jelle suggested that BTC’s news target is around the $140,000 mark, pointing to a Power of Three (PO3) setup on Bitcoin’s chart. The pattern divides the price action into three phases: accumulation, manipulation, and distribution. In the first phase, a consolidation near the recent high occurs after a strong price performance. This is followed by a token’s price falling below the accumulation phase’s support level in the second phase, trading within a range below the recently lost zone. Lastly, the distribution phase consists of a strong price breakout, with momentum building and participants entering the market. Based on this setup, the flagship crypto started the accumulation phase during the Q4 2024 rally, entering the next phase during the March-April retraces. Amid its late April-May rally, Bitcoin has arrived at the setup’s final phase, with the analyst forecasting $140,000 as the next target after breaking above the $108,500 mark. Related Reading: Solana Rejected From Key ‘Inflection Point’, But Multi-Year Trend Suggests New Highs Similarly, Sjuul from AltCryptoGems highlighted the same Po3 pattern on BTC’s chart, affirming that investors could expect a “strong expansion” toward the $125,000-$130,000 levels after breaking out of its previous ATH levels. He previously pointed out that “BTC is clearly repeating the summer 2021 price action and trading in a perfectly bullish structure on high time frame,” which could suggest that the cycle’s top isn’t in yet. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades 1.8% below its new ATH, at $107,502. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com
After reclaiming the crucial $100,000, Bitcoin (BTC) is testing its recently recovered levels as support, with some analysts suggesting that the price will see a short-term sideways move before breaking out of its key resistance. Related Reading: Avalanche (AVAX) Eyes 30% Rally Amid Cup-And-Handle Pattern Breakout BTC’s Next Key Levels Over the past month, Bitcoin has seen a massive performance, recovering more than 23% from the $84,000 mark. The flagship crypto has reclaimed the $100,000 barrier, lost during the February pullback, and rallied to a three-month high of $105,819. Amid the market recovery, BTC has re-entered its post-US elections range, between the $92,000 and $106,000 levels, trading just 4.4% below its January all-time high (ATH). However, the massive rally seems to have slowed after nearing the range’s upper level, which could momentarily halt its next leg up. This week, Bitcoin has ranged between $101,500-$105,000, taking out most of the liquidation clusters within the weekly range lows. Daan Crypto Trades pointed out that now the cryptocurrency is “pretty far away from any large liquidity clusters.” He explained that BTC’s price hasn’t traded in the range’s high for a significant period, and few new positions were built around this area “after the initial squeeze of shorts.” As such, the main levels to look out for are the range’s highs above the $106,000 resistance, and the range’s low around the $93,000 support, where the recent breakout occurred. Bitcoin To Trade Sideways For Two Weeks? Analyst The Cryptonomist considers that BTC’s price action is “very simple from here,” as the flagship crypto moves within a one-month rising wedge pattern. If Bitcoin remains inside the formation, it could surge to the $110,000-$112,000 levels. However, if Bitcoin falls below the lower boundary, around $100,000, it could lose the key support and attempt to fill the CME Gap around the $92,000 before a new ATH rally. Meanwhile, market watcher Ted Pillows highlighted Bitcoin’s correlation with the Global M2 money supply. The analyst noted that the cryptocurrency’s price action has resembled the Global M2 supply chart for the past several months, including the recent pump above $100,000. Related Reading: Ethereum Prepares For $2,850 Rally, But Analysts Warn Of Potential Dip To These Levels Now the chart suggests a consolidation period, which could see Bitcoin move sideways for one to two weeks, if it continues to follow the Global M2 supply path. “Once that is over, BTC’s next leg up will start, which will push it above $120K,” he affirmed. Additionally, Ted pointed out BTC’s Wyckoff accumulation is in the final phase, with some consolidation happening above the $100,000 support, “which is a good sign.” Concluding that, with liquidity entering again, the next leg up “will soon start.” As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $104,916, a 0.5% decline in the daily timeframe.

After jumping by 10% over the past week, Bitcoin (BTC) has hit a crucial resistance level, which could push or momentarily halt the flagship crypto’s rally toward a new all-time high (ATH). Related Reading: Bitcoin Stays Resilient While Wall Street Stumbles – Details Bitcoin Hits Key Level Bitcoin recently jumped above the $100,000 barrier for the first time since February. During its significant weekly performance, BTC has surged over 10% to hit a three-month high of $105,500 on Monday, fueling investors’ sentiment regarding a new ATH rally. On Monday, Analyst Rekt Capital highlighted that the flagship crypto rallied across the entire re-accumulation range, concluding its downside deviation and the first price discovery correction. After surging to its range high of $104,500, Bitcoin has faced rejection from this key level, momentarily pausing its rally. He pointed out that Bitcoin already had its first Price Discovery Uptrend and Price Discovery Correction. The cryptocurrency is now attempting to confirm its second Price Discovery Uptrend, but needs to reclaim the $104,500 level as support to confirm this phase. As the analyst explained, this level is currently acting as resistance after it closed the week at $104,118, just below the range high. He added that “technically BTC can try to confirm an uptrend beyond this point by Daily Closing above $104.5k and then holding it as support, so it will be worth watching for this lower timeframe confirmation.” However, “until that confirmation is in, this resistance will continue to act as one. And as resistances do, they tend to reject price.” According to Rekt Capital, Bitcoin has repeated some key elements from its Post-halving range in its current range, suggesting that if BTC continues to reject from this level, it could face a post-breakout retest of its lower high resistance. One Dip Left Before ATHs? Previously, the analyst detailed that BTC could be repeating its Q4 2024 performance, where the cryptocurrency recovered from its downside deviation to hit a new ATH. BTC initially got rejected at its lower high resistance and fell to the range’s lows before breaking above the lower high, retesting it as support, and soaring to a new ATH. For history to repeat, BTC must get rejected at $99,000, hold $93,500 as support, and break the $97,000-$99,000 range before being rejected at the $104,500 resistance, which is the level “to turn into support for Bitcoin to breakout into its second Price Discovery Uptrend.” Notably, BTC followed this path closely over the past week, getting rejected near $99,000 and retesting the $93,500 support before jumping above the $100,000 mark. To continue this performance, the cryptocurrency must fall to the $97,000-$99,000 range and hold it as support for a similar breakout to new ATHs. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Completes Bullish Structure Break – $3,000 Comes Next In his Monday analysis, Rekt Capital shared that BTC’s lower high resistance is at the $98,500 level, signaling that a 5% drop could be ahead. However, he noted that the retest “doesn’t need to happen at all,” as Bitcoin could Daily Close above the key resistance, hold this level, and rally to new ATHs. “But in the event of a dip, turning the Lower High resistance into a new support could fully confirm the break of this Lower High, turn it into new support, and in doing so, solidify BTC’s positioning in the $98.5k-$104.5k portion of the ReAccumulation Range,” he concluded.

As Bitcoin (BTC) attempts to break out from its weekly range, its price eyes the crucial $99,000-$100,000 resistance barrier, fueling bullish sentiment among investors. Multiple analysts forecast that the flagship’s crypto next all-time high (ATH) rally is around the corner, with some suggesting that the initial jump could come in the coming days. Related Reading: Ethereum ‘Running Out Of Time’? Analyst Says New ATH May Not Come This Cycle Bitcoin To $100,000 This Weekend? Over the past two weeks, Bitcoin has recovered from its sub-$80,000 correction, breaking above the $90,000 mark and reclaiming the $93,5000 resistance to re-enter its post-US elections price range. Amid its recovery, the cryptocurrency consolidated between the $93,000-$96,000 range, moving sideways for the last weeks. The start-of-month pump has seen BTC break out of this range after being compressed during this period, resembling its performance from two weeks ago. Analyst Daan Crypto Trades explained that BTC surged to the $83,000-$86,000 region during the mid-April recovery, consolidating for over a week before a small 2% breakout toward the $87,500 resistance. This was followed by a two-day “tight chop” and a breakout to a new higher range. He suggested that Bitcoin displays “a similar setup as the week before” as it has ranged and compressed within the $93,000-$96,000 zone and jumped around 2% to the $97,700 mark. Additionally, the largest crypto by market capitalization’s “tight chop” phase could have started as its price has hovered between $97,050 and $97,700 for the past few hours. If BTC replicates its recent performance, the flagship crypto could rally around 8% toward a new range at the end of the weekend and retest $99,000-$100,000 in the coming days. BTC Resembles Q4 2024 Price Action Meanwhile, analyst Rekt Capital suggested that Bitcoin could repeat its Q4 2024 performance. He highlighted that BTC has recovered from its downside deviation to reclaim its recent re-accumulation range, but it’s facing a lower high resistance within this zone. Notably, the cryptocurrency experienced the same situation in the post-halving re-accumulation range, initially rejected from the lower high to fall to the range’s lows. Weeks later, Bitcoin broke above the lower high resistance, restesting it as support before breaking out and soaring to a new ATH. The analyst noted that the idea was first explored before the US election pump, suggesting that BTC could mimic its Q1 2024 rally, fueled by the US spot Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Funds (ETFs). “It would be poetry if Bitcoin repeated history and followed through on the same path in this current Range as well,” he stated. However, Rekt Capital detailed that for history to repeat, Bitcoin must get rejected at $99,000, hold the $93,500 mark as support, and break the $97,000-$99,000 range before being rejected at the $104,500 resistance.

The analyst concluded that if Bitcoin continues holding the $93,500 mark, the price will be positioned to move across its re-accumulation range. Nonetheless, BTC must break its “black Lower High resistance within this Range, which is positioned at ~$99k this week.” As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $97,461, a 3% increase in the weekly timeframe.

As Bitcoin (BTC) recovers from its five-month low, the cryptocurrency attempts to reclaim the $84,000 resistance. Some market watchers suggest that more volatility could be around the counter, as the price is compressing between two key levels. Related Reading: Ethereum ‘Set For Potential Rally’ After 10% Surge – Can ETH Recover $1,800? Bitcoin Retests 4-Month Downtrend Line Over the past week, Bitcoin has been trading between the $74,000-$84,000 price range following the recent tariff war-related volatility. After hitting a one-week high of $84,720, the flagship crypto hit a five-month low of $74,773, driven by this week’s market correction. Amid this performance, the cryptocurrency risked a 13.7% drop to the $69,000 support, as it generally needs a daily close above the $78,500 level for a potential short-term rebound. However, BTC’s price has surged 13.5% since Monday’s lows and attempted to reclaim the $84,000 resistance. The market recovery was fueled by US President Donald Trump’s 90-day pause on the trade tariffs for over 75 nations, which saw the crypto market and stock prices jump 6%-10% in an hour this Wednesday. Nonetheless, the tariffs-driven rally slowed Thursday, with Bitcoin retracing nearly 5% to the $79,000 support. Analyst Alex Clay asserted that despite the bullish rally, BTC’s price needed to reclaim the broken $80,000 support and break through the descending 4-month resistance as its short-term structure continued looking bearish. During BTC’s 7% surge in the past 24 hours, the analyst highlighted the key support zone held, invalidating his bearish scenario. However, a breakout and reclaim confirmation of the $84,000 remained crucial for BTC’s price. BTC Preparing For More Volatility? Analyst Rekt Capital pointed out that Bitcoin successfully retested the $78,500 support, but its price was rejected from the 4-month downtrend resistance. Therefore, the flagship crypto’s price is now compressing between these two levels, which usually “precedes volatility.” The analyst also noted that BTC is “developing yet another Higher Low on the RSI while forming Lower Lows on the price.” During this cycle, the cryptocurrency has formed multiple bullish RSI divergences in the daily chart, each preceding a reversal to the levels. Bitcoin’s Daily RSI equaled 2022 Bear Market RSI levels (RSI=23.93) when price crashed into the high $70,000s. The only lower Daily RSI in this cycle was back in August 2023 (RSI=18.28). Throughout this cycle, each visit into sub-25 RSI resulted in a trend reversal to the upside over time. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Needs 15% Bounce After Multi-Year Support Retest, Recovery Ahead? Meanwhile, crypto analyst Ali Martinez suggested that BTC could see a retrace back to the $74,000 support zone. He observed that Bitcoin’s movements within its weekly range display a W-shape to the upper boundary, and its price action seemed to be forming an M-shape after Thursday’s retrace and Friday’s jump, which eyes the range’s lower boundary. On the contrary, the analyst also highlighted Bitcoin’s Friday performance, affirming that it “is slicing through key resistance at $82,360.” Notably, BTC’s price then jumped toward the $84,000 barrier, hitting a daily high of $84,220 before retracing to the $83,500 mark. According to Martinez, “A sustained breakout could open the door to $91,500.” As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $83,640, a 1% decline in the weekly timeframe.

An analyst has explained how a break beyond the 200-day moving average (MA) might put Bitcoin on the path to a top around the upper band of this indicator. Bitcoin Mayer Multiple Currently Has Its Upper Band Located At $208,550 In a new post on X, analyst Ali Martinez has discussed the Mayer Multiple of Bitcoin. The “Mayer Multiple” here refers to an indicator that keeps track of the ratio between the BTC price and its 200-day MA. One way to interpret the metric is as a measure of the distance away that the asset’s value is from the 200-day MA. Historically, the 200-day MA has served as a boundary between bullish and bearish trends for the cryptocurrency, so how far its price is from this important line can help indicate potential oversold and overbought conditions. Related Reading: 62.8% Of XRP Realized Cap Held By New Investors: Sign Of Fragility? More specifically, a Mayer Multiple value of 2.4 or more has generally signaled that the asset is becoming overheated. Similarly, a value of 0.8 or under can suggest the coin may be due to a bounce back towards the 200-day MA. Now, here is the chart shared by the analyst that shows the trend in the 200-day MA of Bitcoin, as well as lines corresponding to the 2.4 and 0.8 Mayer Multiple levels, over the past decade: As is visible in the chart, Bitcoin has recently declined under the 200-day MA, situated at $86,900. This means that the Mayer Multiple has now dropped under the 1.0 mark. The next potential support for the cryptocurrency could be located at $69,500, corresponding to the level where the Mayer Multiple would assume a value equal to 0.8. BTC has witnessed a surge in the past day, so it’s currently closer to retesting the 200-day MA than falling back on this support. In the scenario that the asset goes on to retest this mark and successfully break above it, Martinez has noted that the stage might be set for a market top around $208,550. This level, of course, correlates to the 2.4 Mayer Multiple level. So far in the current cycle, Bitcoin hasn’t made a single touch of this level. From the chart, it’s visible that the bull run in the second half of 2021 attained its peak far below the line, but the cryptocurrency still spent time around it during the first half of the year. Related Reading: Stablecoin Activity Shoots Up: Investors Looking To Buy Bitcoin? Given the precedence, it’s possible that the asset would hit this mark at least once in the remaining portion of the current cycle. It only remains to be seen, however, whether the pattern holds, considering the uncertainty in the form of tariffs that’s looming over the market. BTC Price Bitcoin has shown some sharp recovery during the last 24 hours as its price is back to $81,500 after a jump of over 6%. Featured image from Dall-E, Glassnode.com, chart from TradingView.com
Crypto and stock prices have surged in the past hour after US President Donald Trump announced a 90-day pause for tariffs on multiple nations, except China. Bitcoin (BTC), the flagship crypto, now eyes the $83,000 barrier after jumping 6.1% following the news. Related Reading: Bitcoin’s Next Big Move? Open Interest Says ‘Get Ready’ Trump Authorizes 90-Day Pause On Tariffs In a Truth Social post, President Trump announced he was raising China tariffs to 125% “effect immediately” due to a “lack of respect” shown to the World’s markets. This move follows China’s recently announced reciprocal 84% tariff rate on US goods, starting April 10. “Based on the lack of respect that China has shown to the World’s Markets, I am hereby raising the Tariff charged to China by the United States of America to 125%, effective immediately. At some point, hopefully in the near future, China will realize that the days of ripping off the U.S.A., and other Countries, is no longer sustainable or acceptable,” Trump explained. In the Wednesday post, the US President also revealed he had authorized a “90 days PAUSE” for other countries, as 75 nations reached out to multiple US Representatives, including the Departments of Commerce, Treasury, and the US Trade Representative, to “negotiate a solution to the subjects being discussed relative to Trade, Trade Barriers, Tariffs, Currency Manipulation, and Non-Monetary Tariffs.” Additionally, he authorized an immediate substantially lowered Reciprocal Tariff of 10% during the 90-day pause. In a second post, the President stated, “This is a great time to buy.” Following the news, stock prices surged, with the S&P 500 (SPX) surging around 6% since the announcement. Meanwhile, the crypto market saw its total market capitalization jump around 5%, with assets like Bitcoin, Ethereum (ETH), XRP, and Solana (SOL) increasing 6%-12% in an hour. Bitcoin Price Surges To $82,000 The flagship crypto climbed from the $76,000-$77,000 range to the $82,000, momentarily reclaiming this level for the first time since Sunday. Its 6% surge has sparked optimism among investors, who saw Bitcoin fall to a five-month low over the weekend. BTC dropped nearly 10% between Sunday and Monday, fueled by the ongoing tariff war. Amid the correction, Bitcoin hit the $74,000 support zone for the first time since November. Related Reading: Solana (SOL) Needs 15% Bounce After Multi-Year Support Retest, Recovery Ahead? On Monday, BTC also saw a brief recovery of the $80,000 barrier after major media outlets reported the White House was considering a 90-day pause on tariffs. However, the cryptocurrency erased most gains after the news turned fake. According to online reports, today’s surge triggered $75,000,000 worth of Bitcoin shorts being liquidated in the past 60 minutes. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $82,444, a 4.1% decline in the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com
Bitcoin (BTC) has dropped below $95,000 and risks a further decline amid the ongoing market retrace. As February comes to an end, some analysts consider the flagship crypto needs to reclaim some crucial levels to continue its bullish long-term trend. Related Reading: Is The Bitcoin Price Manipulated? Expert Exposes The Truth Bitcoin Sees Monday Bleeding Over the past three days, Bitcoin has seen its price drop below some key levels, dropping 5.7% From Friday’s highs. Amid the news of the US Securities and Exchange Commission’s withdrawal of its crypto case against Coinbase, the largest crypto by market capitalization traded above the $99,000 mark for the first time in two weeks. However, the positive sentiment quickly vanished after Bybit, one of the largest crypto exchanges in the world, suffered a $1.5 billion hack that took around 401,347 ETH. As a result, most cryptocurrencies, including Bitcoin, lost their momentary gains. Since then, the flagship crypto has hovered between the $95,000 and $96,000 zone, briefly nearing the $97,000 resistance on Saturday. On Monday, the correction continued, with BTC dropping below $95,000 and hitting its one-week low at $93,800. As noted by analyst Jelle, Bitcoin continues to dump on New York markets opening. Per the post, BTC has been retracing from its early Monday recoveries every week after the US market opens, driving its price to a red Monday close several times in the past few months. Despite these retraces and the recent market corrections, Bitcoin has remained within its post-election range since November, showing minimal volatility. BTC has hovered between the $96,000-$102,000 mid-zone of the range for most of this period. Amid its recent performance, Altcoin Sherpa pointed out that, excluding February 18, Bitcoin has not closed below its daily support zone in over a month, signaling that BTC needs to close above $95,700 to continue holding this crucial level. BTC Retests Bullish Flag Breakout Meanwhile, Rekt Capital highlighted that BTC needs a monthly close above $96,000 to continue its bullish long-term trend. In January, the largest crypto registered a historic candle after closing the month above the $100,000 mark for the first time. This close confirmed Bitcoin’s breakout from its post-election monthly bull flag. However, the recent price action has seen BTC retest its breakout level again, momentarily losing it. The analyst asserted that the cryptocurrency needs to reclaim and close February above $96,700 “to confirm the breakout & set itself up for trend continuation over time.” He added that BTC has traded around this key level throughout the majority of February, and continuing to hold it would indicate a “successful post-breakout retest.” Related Reading: Dogecoin Activity Levels Crash To 4-Month Lows, Does This Spell Doom For The Meme Coin? Rekt Capital concluded that BTC’s daily close “isn’t as important as the higher timeframe signal” as the bull flag bottom continues to hold as support “and the three-month trend of a Higher Low at the downside wicks still exists.” At the time of writing, BTC trades at $94,165, a 2.1% decrease in the daily timeframe.

On-chain data shows a Bitcoin indicator is currently retesting a level that has historically acted as a boundary line between bearish and bullish momentum. Bitcoin Short-Term Holder SOPR Is Retesting 1.0 Right Now In a new post on X, the on-chain analytics firm Glassnode has discussed about the latest trend in the BTC Spent Output Profit Ratio (SOPR) of the short-term holders. Related Reading: $200 Million In Crypto Longs Wiped Out As Altcoins Crash To Start Week The “SOPR” here refers to an on-chain indicator that tells us about whether the Bitcoin investors as a whole are selling or transferring their coins at a profit or loss. When the value of this metric is greater than 1, it means the average holder of the asset is selling at a net profit. On the other hand, it being under this threshold suggests the overall market is realizing a net loss. Naturally, the SOPR being exactly equal to the 1 level implies the profits being realized by the investors are canceling out the losses, so the average holder can be assumed to be just breaking-even on their transactions. In the context of the current topic, the SOPR of only a specific investor group is of interest: the short-term holders (STHs). The STHs include the Bitcoin investors who purchased their tokens within the past 155 days. Now, here is the chart shared by the analytics firm that shows the trend in the 7-day moving average (MA) of the Bitcoin STH SOPR over the last few months: As is visible in the above graph, the Bitcoin STH SOPR fell under the 1 mark earlier in the year, implying the STHs took to loss-taking as the price of the cryptocurrency moved in a bearish trajectory. Recently, though, the metric has been making recovery and it’s now back at the break-even level. “Historically, breaking above 1.0 confirms a shift in momentum, while failure to do so often leads to renewed sell pressure,” explains Glassnode. Breaking above the level, however, is no simple task, for it serves as a major psychological level for the STHs. These investors are by definition the entities who are either new to the market or just not resolute enough to hold for long periods, so they can be prone to panic selloffs. When the STH SOPR rises to the 1 mark, it means these investors, who were forced into loss selling earlier, are able to break-even again. Selling pressure can spike when this happens, as STHs rush to get their money ‘back.’ Related Reading: Is It Time To Buy XRP? TD Sequential Says Yes The last time that Bitcoin saw the indicator make a retest of this level was back in January. From the chart, it’s apparent that it successfully found a breakout then, although it was only short-lived.

A week after its last attempt to reclaim the $100,000 barrier, Bitcoin (BTC) continues moving within its local range. Following its recent performance, some analysts consider that BTC could be near a breakout and a massive rally toward a new high. Related Reading: CZ Sparks Memecoin Frenzy With Dog Picture: Four.Meme Starts Token Betting Event Bitcoin Ready For A Breakout Or a Breakdown? Amid the market volatility, Bitcoin has found price stability, staying within the mid-zone of its post-election breakout level. During the recent 12% correction, BTC saw its price retest the range lows as support, bouncing toward the $100,000 barrier. However, it failed to regain this zone as support and continued its sideways move within this range. Over the last week, the flagship crypto has hovered between $94,000 and $98,000, incapable of holding the $99,000 mark since late January. Crypto trader EliZ noted that Bitcoin has been within this “mini range” for nearly two weeks, suggesting that the cryptocurrency is poised for “a big move” out of this consolidation zone. He cautioned investors that the direction the flagship crypto could take “is almost impossible to predict.” It is worth noting that market sentiment has recently divided, as Bitcoin’s price action doesn’t seem to reflect bullish news. A Nansem analyst suggested that the market appears momentarily satiated and more “reactive to negative sentiment than positive news.” Ali Martinez said Bitcoin looks “primed for a breakout,” highlighting an almost two-week symmetrical triangle in BTC’s chart. After the recent price performance, the cryptocurrency tested the pattern’s upper trendline, suggesting another retest could be near. Nonetheless, the analyst stated that a confirmation of the breakout will be key before the next BTC move. BTC Price Eyes $150,000 Cycle Top Crypto Jelle also considers that Bitcoin is preparing to start its next leg up. BTC’s “explosive moves generally kick off after the first price-discovery consolidation is completed,” which, according to other analysts, it has. Rekt Capital has stated that Bitcoin is about to embark on its second price discovery uptrend, as BTC has completed the first price-discovery correction of its post-halving parabolic phase. According to Jelle’s X post, Bitcoin gained 577% in 133 days in 2017, while it recorded a 70% increase in 56 days in 2021. Moreover, he pointed out another signal that could shed some light on BTC’s top this cycle. The analyst affirmed, “Bitcoin crossing above its 2-year MA multiplier has historically been a great top signal.” Bitcoin topped after crossing above the 5X multiplier in the first two cycles. Meanwhile, it didn’t hit last cycle’s top until “tagging the 5x multiplier – well above the 4x multiplier,” suggesting that a diminishing trend could be forming.

However, Jelle affirms that even if BTC’s price only hits the 3x multiplier this cycle, the price is still poised for a significant rise. According to the chart, the potential multiplier for the cycle targets the $152,000 mark. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $98,243, a 1.7% increase on the daily timeframe.

Bitcoin (BTC) continues to move within its one-week range after recovering from its recent drop to $91,000 but has failed to reclaim support above the $98,000 mark. Some analysts consider that BTC’s sentiment will remain neutral while it regains this support zone and builds up momentum toward a new high. Related Reading: Ethereum Holds ‘Bounce Or Die’ Level: Rebound To $4,000 Could Be Near Bitcoin Price Stability Could Lead To $101K Reclaim Following the start-of-February market correction, Bitcoin has been moving within the $96,000-$99,000 price range. The flagship cryptocurrency has recovered from its momentary fall to $91,000 and found support within its one-week range, only dropping 2% during this Sunday’s market retrace. The largest cryptocurrency has been hovering between $90,000 and $108,000 since the US Elections pump, moving in the mid-zone of its four-month price range for most of this period. Crypto analyst Rekt Capital pointed out Bitcoin’s positive performance, as it “continues to enjoy price stability” above a diagonal trendline support, a previous one-month downtrend line, broken during the latest all-time high (ATH) breakout. Since the DeepSeek-triggered correction, Bitcoin recorded price advances “that have been quickly getting canceled out, as evidenced by the recent upside wicks.” However, BTC’s price continued to hold the diagonal trendline as support over the week, which is necessary to build further momentum. According to the analyst, “As long as it continues to hold, the price will be positioned for a revisit of $101k over time.” After its most recent price action, BTC needs to reclaim the $97,700 mark to “build on this reversal with additional follow-through.” To achieve this, the flagship cryptocurrency must print a daily close above this level and reclaim it as support to build on its momentum toward the $101,000 resistance. BTC Remain Bullish in Higher Timeframes Daan Crypto Trades highlighted BTC’s range hasn’t changed, as it continues to move sideways while many altcoins have been losing ground. According to the X post, Bitcoin is consolidating while attempting a breakout on the lower timeframes. If the flagship crypto reclaims the highs from last week’s initial bounce, above the $100,000 barrier, BTC’s market structure will flip around. Daan stated BTC’s momentum is “pretty neutral” in the short term while bullish in the higher timeframes. Additionally, he pointed out that risk on sentiment will return once Bitcoin goes back into price discovery. According to Rekt Capital, BTC’s Second Price Discovery Uptrend should come in the next few weeks, as the cryptocurrency is trying to “trend reverse out of its 1st Price Discovery Correction,” which started in December.

Several analysts have pointed out that BTC’s post-halving year performance has generally been favorable during Q1, generally struggling throughout the first few weeks of the year but gaining momentum throughout February and March. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $96,091, a 1.2% decrease in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com
Bitcoin experienced a rollercoaster start to the week as the cryptocurrency dipped 5% below the critical $100K mark, only to recover and climb back above it. Monday’s price action highlighted the ongoing volatility in the market, leaving investors divided on Bitcoin’s next move. Some analysts are calling for a surge above the all-time high (ATH), while others warn of a potential continuation of the recent decline. Related Reading: Ethereum Poised To Test $2,800 Support Level If Market Downtrend Persists – Analyst Market sentiment remains mixed, with uncertainty dominating investor decision-making. However, Bitcoin’s resilience above the $100K level has sparked renewed optimism among bulls. Top crypto analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis, highlighting that Bitcoin has now turned $100,000 into a support level after two previous failed attempts. Jelle’s insights suggest that the psychological barrier has become a strong foothold for Bitcoin, setting the stage for potential upward momentum. As the market continues to watch for Bitcoin’s next move, the $100K level is now a critical zone to monitor. Whether Bitcoin surges toward a new ATH or faces another test of this support will likely shape the broader market narrative in the coming days. For now, Bitcoin’s ability to reclaim and hold $100K is a key indicator of its strength in this volatile phase. Bitcoin Holds Steady Amid Volatility Bitcoin has faced massive volatility since the start of the year, with price movements dominated by speculation and uncertainty. Despite these fluctuations, Bitcoin has demonstrated resilience, maintaining key demand levels and establishing new support zones. Analysts believe this could pave the way for a significant breakout in the coming weeks, with many eyeing an upward move toward new all-time highs (ATH). Top crypto analyst Jelle shared a technical analysis on X, highlighting the importance of Bitcoin’s recent price action. According to Jelle, “After two failed attempts, it looks like the third time is a charm indeed.” The $100,000 level, once a formidable resistance, has now turned into a solid support. This critical development underscores bullish momentum and sets the stage for a potential rally. Jelle noted that this shift in support indicates that bulls are gaining strength, positioning Bitcoin to rise higher and challenge its ATH. The broader market sentiment reflects cautious optimism. While uncertainty remains a driving force, Bitcoin’s ability to hold above $100,000 signals strong investor confidence. The cryptocurrency’s recent stability at these levels suggests it may be primed for a decisive move upward. Analysts and investors are closely monitoring Bitcoin’s next steps, as reclaiming and holding above ATH would solidify its long-term bullish trajectory. Related Reading: Solana Active Addresses Surge To 832K Per Hour Outpacing Ethereum Amid TRUMP Meme Coin Hype For now, Bitcoin’s ability to maintain support at $100,000 and push higher could serve as the catalyst for renewed enthusiasm in the market. If Bitcoin successfully challenges its ATH, it could mark the start of a new phase of growth, reinforcing its dominance as the leading cryptocurrency. As the market watches closely, Bitcoin remains the focal point of investor speculation and bullish expectations. Trading Between Key Liquidity Levels Bitcoin is currently trading at $102,900, having secured strong support above the critical $100,000 level. This psychological barrier has become a key focal point for market participants, with bulls showing resilience in defending it after recent volatility. The ability to hold this level suggests the potential for further upward momentum in the short term. For bulls to confirm a continuation of the uptrend, BTC must hold above $100,000 and push above the $105,000 mark. Breaking this next significant resistance level would likely trigger renewed bullish momentum, attracting fresh buyers and potentially paving the way for a massive rally. Such a move could see BTC retest its all-time high and even venture into price discovery territory. However, the stakes remain high. A failure to sustain support above $100,000 could lead to a deeper consolidation phase, dampening market enthusiasm. This would likely result in a retest of lower demand zones, with traders closely watching for signs of further weakness.

Bitcoin is currently testing demand below the $95K mark, a crucial level that could provide the fuel needed for the next rally. While this consolidation phase has left many investors nervous about a potential deeper correction, some even speculating that BTC may have already peaked, key metrics paint a more optimistic picture.

Bitcoin has finally reclaimed the highly anticipated $100K mark after days of consolidation and lingering negative sentiment. The psychological milestone had been a key resistance level, with many investors and analysts closely monitoring BTC’s price action for clues about its next big move. The recent breakout above $100K signals renewed market optimism, yet the question remains: can Bitcoin maintain its momentum? Related Reading: Solana Back Above Weekly & Monthly Support Levels – Analyst Expects New ATH Top analyst Carl Runefelt shared a detailed technical analysis on X, highlighting a critical pattern forming in Bitcoin’s 1-hour time frame. According to Runefelt, Bitcoin is currently shaping a symmetrical triangle, a classic chart pattern that typically precedes a significant price movement. The pattern suggests that Bitcoin is coiling for a decisive breakout or breakdown, with the next few days—or even hours—potentially shaping its short-term trajectory. This pivotal moment for Bitcoin comes as the broader crypto market experiences renewed energy following a sluggish end to the previous year. Investors are optimistic yet cautious, as the technical setup could signal either a continued rally or a temporary setback. With BTC back in six-figure territory, the stage is set for a critical period that could define the first quarter of 2025. Bitcoin Breaks Above $100K But Faces Risks Bitcoin has surged to $102,700 with impressive strength, fueling optimism for a highly bullish year ahead. Investors are closely watching the market leader, which continues to show resilience after reclaiming the $100K mark. However, BTC is not without risks; any loss of current levels could result in a significant pullback, potentially shaking confidence in the ongoing rally. Top analyst Carl Runefelt recently shared a detailed technical analysis on X, highlighting Bitcoin’s formation of a symmetrical triangle on the hourly timeframe. This classic chart pattern often precedes a sharp breakout or breakdown, signaling heightened market activity. Runefelt emphasized that the next move could occur as the price consolidates tightly within the triangle. Runefelt outlined key price targets for traders to watch. A close below the $100K mark would act as a bearish signal, potentially invalidating the bullish structure built over recent weeks. Conversely, a breakout above $103K would confirm bullish momentum and set the stage for a continuation of the rally.

While optimism surrounds the possibility of a sustained bull cycle, the potential for increased volatility underscores the need for caution in this pivotal period. Testing Fresh Liquidity Bitcoin is trading at $101,400 after a decisive 4-hour breakout above the critical $100K mark, sparking renewed optimism among investors. This clean breakout has pushed BTC into fresh liquidity above the psychological level of $100K, a sign of strength as the market leader attempts to maintain bullish momentum. However, the battle is far from over. While Bitcoin’s price action remains promising, bulls need to push the price higher to assert full control. The next major hurdle lies at $103,600, a key resistance level that, if broken, could pave the way for a massive rally. A strong move above this mark would confirm Bitcoin’s bullish structure and likely attract more buyers, driving the price into new all-time highs.

Bitcoin (BTC) started the week by breaking out of a bullish pattern after moving sideways for most of the weekend. The flagship cryptocurrency just started its “parabolic phase,” sitting 3.4% below its all-time high (ATH), which could bring “massive moves” for BTC this week.

Analyst Calls For A 200% Spike Bitcoin ‘Parabolic Phase’ Just Started Bitcoin has seen a massive surge in the last two weeks, jumping 32% to the $89,000-$90,000 price range. BTC’s remarkable performance saw it soar 11% last Monday, preparing the ground for its eventual surge toward its latest ATH of $93,400 two days later. Since then, Bitcoin’s price has hovered between the $89,000-$92,000 range, briefly falling to $87,000 last Friday. Over the weekend, the flagship crypto continued to move within this rage, registering its largest weekly close in Bitcoin history. Crypto analyst Rekt Capital pointed out that BTC is barely starting its “parabolic phase,” noting that week three of the cycle’s “first price discovery uptrend” started today. The analyst explained that, historically, BTC has seen around 300 days of parabolic run each cycle, with the first major pullback coming over a month after entering price discovery mode. Per the post, it took six weeks before the flagship crypto’s first major pullback in 2013. In 2017, BTC rallied for eight weeks before registering a deeper pullback. Meanwhile, it soared for four weeks before experiencing a major retrace in the 2020-2021 cycle. Based on this, the analyst considers that “history suggests there’s more upside to come and that the first Price Discovery Correction is still weeks away.” Is A Move Massive Move Coming This Week? Ali Martinez noted that Bitcoin seems to be repeating 2020’s pattern. In 2020, after breaking its previous ATH of $19,700, BTC rose 26% and consolidated for a week. Following its consolidation, BTC jumped 66% toward $40,000 in the next two weeks. Martinez pointed out that Bitcoin has risen 28% since surpassing its March ATH and has been consolidating for nearly a week. This suggests that the cryptocurrency’s price could be getting ready for a substantial surge in the following days, potentially hitting the $100,000 mark this week. Crypto Yapper, another market watcher, stated that Bitcoin will likely make a “massive move” soon. The analyst highlighted the flagship crypto’s consolidation, noting the significant price action around the $89,000-$90,000 mark. Related Reading: Bitcoin Bulls Aren’t Backing Down: Rally Continues? This horizontal level acted as a key resistance zone earlier last week but has been confirmed as support throughout the past five days. As Bitcoin retested the $91,000 earlier today, the analyst also pointed out its price could continue the bullish trajectory and aim for a new ATH around $95,000. Additionally, BTC started the week breaking out of a one-week symmetrical triangle pattern. To Crypto Yapper, this is a “typical continuation pattern” for the cryptocurrency, which suggests that Bitcoin is set to continue its climb if the breakout is confirmed throughout the day. The analyst stated that BTC’s continuation of its uptrend could hit $100,000 by Sunday. As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading at $90,260, a 10% increase in the weekly timeframe.

Bitcoin has entered a brief consolidation phase after reaching new all-time highs last week, following an aggressive price surge that captured the market’s attention. The rally came on the heels of two significant events: former president Donald Trump’s victory in the U.S. election and the Federal Reserve’s decision to cut interest rates. These developments fueled […]
Bitcoin has proven unstoppable, breaking all-time highs five times in six days and surging past the $82,000 mark. This latest milestone cements Bitcoin’s momentum as it pushes into uncharted territory, capturing the bulls’ attention and sparking new levels of optimism in the market. According to recent data from CryptoQuant, the number of bullish investors is growing rapidly, yet there’s reason to believe Bitcoin’s rally is far from over.

CryptoQuant’s insights indicate that BTC remains significantly below its March 2024 peak in several key metrics, which suggests that Bitcoin may still have room to climb within this cycle. This gap highlights that, despite the impressive gains, Bitcoin could still be building toward a true cycle peak, with potential gains yet to be realized. As investor sentiment strengthens and Bitcoin shows resilience at each new level, the market watches closely for signs of continued upward momentum. The next few days will be crucial in determining just how far Bitcoin can go as it solidifies its place in the next phase of this bull run. Bitcoin Bulls Enter The Room Bitcoin bulls have returned after eight months of sideways consolidation and significant selling pressure. With Bitcoin now trading 11% above its previous all-time high from March, market sentiment has turned decisively bullish, marking the start of a new trend. According to data from CryptoQuant analyst Axel Adler, the number of bullish investors in the market is steadily rising, signaling growing confidence. However, despite this uptick, the current rally lacks the frenzied demand seen during the March 2024 rally, when both retail and institutional interest reached euphoric levels. Adler’s data indicates that while bulls have a strong foothold in the market, the pace of accumulation by new retail and institutional participants is still relatively modest. This gap between the current market dynamics and those seen in March suggests that Bitcoin’s latest surge may be just the beginning rather than the end of its upward trajectory in this cycle.

For investors, this could present a promising opportunity. The subdued retail and institutional excitement level suggests that Bitcoin has yet to capture mainstream attention as it did during previous peaks. If demand rises gradually, Bitcoin may experience sustained growth over the coming months, potentially reaching new highs as momentum builds. BTC Setting New High Bitcoin recently set a new all-time high above $82,000, which many investors previously viewed as a likely local top. However, BTC’s price action remains robust, and it may be too soon to call for a definitive peak. Despite this upward momentum, a potential pullback to $77,000 could be on the horizon, as there is an unfilled gap in the CME futures market between $77,000 and $81,000—a technical level that often attracts price action as traders look to close the gap. This week will likely bring significant volatility as bulls control the market. With Bitcoin in uncharted territory, some investors may seize the opportunity to lock in profits, which could introduce selling pressure.

Bitcoin’s strength remains intact for now, but all eyes will be on how it responds to the volatility and whether it can maintain this high range or dip slightly before resuming its climb.
