THE LATEST CRYPTO NEWS

Ethereum (ETH) has surged 7.5% in the daily timeframe to break above a key resistance level for the first time in weeks. Following its breakout, some analysts forecasted that a retest of the range highs could be around the corner. Related Reading: Bitcoin Holds Key Level Amid $108,000 Rejection, But Analysts Suggest Caution This Quarter Ethereum Reclaims Crucial Area On Wednesday, Ethereum jumped over 7% from its local low to the $2,550 mark, setting the stage to reclaim another crucial resistance. The King of Altcoins climbed from the $2,380 support to the $2,585 area, hitting a two-week high. The cryptocurrency has been trading between the $2,400-$2,800 price range since the early May breakout, but briefly lost this area after failing to hold the $2,550 support two weeks ago. After recovering its local range, ETH struggled to break past the $2,500 barrier, trading between the range low and this resistance for a week. Nonetheless, today’s market recovery, which also saw Bitcoin jump to the $109,600 mark, has sparked bullish sentiment among investors. Amid today’s performance, Daan Crypto Trades called ETH’s price action a “nice move out of the local range.” However, he suggested that bulls must hold the $2,520 area to confirm it isn’t another deviation or liquidity grab in a “bigger chop.” To the trader, failing to hold this area would send the cryptocurrency to the range lows again. As a result, the major levels to watch remain the $2,310 support and $2,735 resistance. Market watcher Merlijn The Trader noted that Ethereum has “respected support every single time,” forming “one of the cleanest breakouts we’ve ever seen.” He highlighted a three-month ascending triangle in ETH’s chart, pointing out that the King of Altcoins bounced from the rising support line during the recent price deviation and now targets the next key resistance around the $2,700 mark. Ethereum is charging up. Higher lows, strong base, bullish MACD crossover. A clean break of $2,700… and ETH will fly. $3,000 is just the beginning. The real move comes after that. ETH To Repeat ATH Set Up? Merlijn also affirmed that ETH’s two-year setup is repeating, which could signal that a massive breakout is coming. According to the chart, the Ethereum price has moved in stages that last about two years since 2018. During the first stage, the cryptocurrency’s price forms a base, which later leads to the second stage, where the price rejects and retests the base lows. Lastly, Ethereum experiences the liftoff phase, where the price breaks out to new highs. The last liftoff phase, between 2020 and 2022, saw ETH surge from the $100 mark to its $4,878 all-time high (ATH). To the trader, “This time we start from $1,500. Not a dip. A launchpad.” Similarly, analyst Kaleo pointed out the structural resemblance between ETH’s performance this cycle and last cycle. He noted that, while BTC hit a new ATH in December 2020, Ethereum was 60% down from its previous cycle highs, leading many investors to suggest it was “dead.” Related Reading: Solana Summer Loading?

This time, the cryptocurrency has also seen up to a 68% retrace from its previous ATH, while BTC soared to new highs. If history repeats, “The bottom for ETH is in. Up only from here,” the analyst concluded. As of this writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,568, a 6.1% increase in the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

As Bitcoin (BTC) experiences another dip, falling 5% below its record high of $111,800 reached during May’s crypto rally, analysts are probing the reasons behind its stagnation in the $100,000 to $110,000 range.  In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), crypto analyst DanteX outlined the factors contributing to this price resistance and what it could mean for the remainder of 2025. What’s Holding Bitcoin Back? Despite the substantial influx of nearly $5 billion in Bitcoin acquired through exchange-traded funds (ETFs) in just a few weeks, the price of Bitcoin has failed to surpass the $120,000 target identified by analysts. Public companies, Strategy and GameStop, have joined the ranks of institutional buyers, marking a significant shift in corporate interest toward Bitcoin. This growing demand indicates that there are substantial buyers ready to purchase at prices above $100,000. Related Reading: BitMine Stock Soars 700% After $250 Million Raise For Ethereum Treasury However, DanteX asserts that the market has been characterized by an unusual phenomenon: the analyst alleges that someone appears to be “strategically offloading” Bitcoin in the $100,000 to $110,000 range, effectively absorbing the demand and preventing upward movement.  This selling pressure seems to come from a major player—reportedly hedge funds or early investors—actively liquidating positions to offset the inflow of institutional capital. Market Exhaustion Or Distribution?  As the market enters the latter half of summer, a historically weak period for cryptocurrencies, concerns arise about liquidity and retail interest.  DanteX noted that if the Bitcoin price cannot rally now, amid significant buying and market enthusiasm, the outlook may dim as trading volumes decline.  The analyst further shared that the current price stagnation at near-record highs often indicates either market exhaustion or a distribution phase, suggesting that while demand exists, it is being countered by strategic selling. Despite the overall positive macroeconomic environment—where stock markets are soaring, real yields are declining, and liquidity is increasing—DanteX highlights that the Bitcoin price remains unresponsive.  The analyst stated that it could imply that current holders may not be ready for a breakout or are intentionally limiting potential gains. Interestingly, when Bitcoin price movements stall, capital tends to flow into altcoins, which are often viewed as higher-risk, higher-reward investments.  DanteX believes that the current skepticism surrounding the likelihood of an altcoin season amid the current market condition, could actually set the stage for one, as many investors remain “under-positioned.” Record ETF Inflows Fail To Translate Into Price Gains The role of ETFs cannot be overlooked, DanteX further said. He said that while record inflows into ETFs signal strong institutional interest, they do not always correlate with immediate price increases, especially when met with significant selling pressure.  DanteX notes that much of the exchange-traded fund exposure may be hedged or arbitraged, resulting in a complex market dynamic where asset growth does not immediately reflect in Bitcoin’s spot price. Related Reading: Bitcoin Shopping Spree: Strategy Continues Accumulation With $530M Purchase Looking ahead, the analyst suggests monitoring the activity of large wallets, especially those exhibiting selling patterns that align with recent price suppression.  Watching macroeconomic indicators, such as potential Federal Reserve rate cuts or shifts in the value of the dollar, is also said to be crucial as these factors could influence market sentiment.

Bitcoin (BTC) attempted to reclaim the $108,000 resistance level again but faced rejection as the third quarter (Q3) started, leading some market watchers to suggest caution for the upcoming months. Related Reading: Solana Summer Loading? SOL Eyes $180 Following Staked ETF-Fueled Breakout Bitcoin Holds Crucial Range Bitcoin’s price ended the second quarter with a retest of the $108,000 barrier before being rejected and closing Q2 and June around the $107,140 area, its highest monthly close in history. Despite the positive performance, the flagship crypto started July with a pullback toward the $105,000, hitting a one-week low of $105,623. Analyst Rekt Capital affirmed that this suggested BTC’s post-breakout retest is in progress, which would strengthen the cryptocurrency’s case for another leg up. The analyst previously explained that Bitcoin needed a weekly close above the $104,400 support after losing it, as reclaiming this area would solidify its price recovery and position the cryptocurrency for a retest and confirmation of this level. Additionally, it would continue building its base around this area to transition into BTC’s second Discovery Uptrend. According to the Tuesday analysis, the new weekly close suggests Bitcoin is positioned for another post-breakout retest. The analyst also noted that, in the past 40 days, BTC broke out of two 2-week downtrends but was rejected from the crucial 6-week downtrend, around the $108,000 mark, during the same timeframe. Sjuul from AltCryptoGems noted the rejection from this level, affirming that “it is mandatory for bulls to step in quickly and not allow the price to have too big of a dip.” The flagship crypto needs a “strong bounce from the most important support and resistance level, just at $106-104K,” which it has momentarily held. To the analyst, failing to hold this area would open the door for a bigger pullback, risking a drop to the Macro support between $101,000 and $102,000. He highlighted a big gap between the current support area and the Macro support, which formed on the recent price recovery. BTC Risks Massive Drop In Q3 Sjuul pointed out that below the $101,000 support, “there is not much to defend the price from falling much lower,” adding that the “historical quarterly return of BTC for Q3 has not been great, so this adds some extra caution to the picture we have taken from the chart.” Similarly, Daan Crypto Trades asserted that historical data shows that Q3 is generally the slowest period for Bitcoin and Ethereum (ETH) due to the decreasing activity, volume, and liquidity during the summer months. He added that, as a new quarter and month begin, BTC will likely see a “choppy start,” but Bitcoin is still consolidating within its current range and descending channel, suggesting that investors should give it time to “play out and watch for confirmations” of the direction it will take for the rest of the month. Related Reading: BitMine Stock Soars 700% After $250 Million Raise For Ethereum Treasury Nonetheless, analyst Ali Martinez gave a warning signal, as an indicator that had predicted “every major Bitcoin crash” has just appeared. Per Martinez, the Tom Demark Sequential indicator, a rare warning that has historically preceded violent pullbacks, flashed a sell signal in the quarterly timeframe. Notably, the same signal appeared in 2015 and 2018, with BTC retracing over 75% and 85% after the indicator flashed. If it follows its historical performance, the analyst forecasted that BTC could drop to the $40,000 mark this quarter. As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading at $105,901, a 1.16% decline in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Solana (SOL) has retested a crucial resistance level after recovering the $150 level over the weekend. The surge, fueled by the upcoming launch of a SOL-based staked exchange-traded fund (ETF), has led some analysts to forecast a rally toward the next key target. Related Reading: Bitcoin Price At $145,000 In September? Bullish Dojis Suggest Upward Move Solana Staked ETFs Coming On Wednesday On Monday, Solana’s price soared to a key resistance level following the introduction of “the first-ever Solana staked crypto ETF in the US.” Rex Shares announced it will launch a Solana-based staked ETF this Wednesday, aiming to offer exposure to SOL and staking rewards. According to the X post, the REX-Osprey ETF will track SOL’s performance while “generating yield through on-chain staking,” starting a “new era of yield-generating crypto exposure.” As a result, Solana climbed to the $160 barrier, which led to nearly $9 million in short positions liquidated on Monday afternoon. Market Watcher Daan Crypto Trades considers Solana “bounced nicely over the weekend” but has yet to turn the Low Timeframe (LTF) trend around. He explained that reclaiming the $159-$167 area is necessary to aim for higher levels. Additionally, the Daily 200-day Moving Average (MA) and Exponential Moving Average (EMA) are currently located within this range. “I would want to see price trade back above that to start targeting the $180-$200 region again,” he detailed. Nonetheless, the trader questioned whether a Solana spot ETF-driven rally will fuel the cryptocurrency’s run. Notably, multiple investment firms, including Grayscale, VanEck, 21Shares, and Bitwise, have filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to launch a spot SOL ETF in the US. According to recent reports, the investment products have a “high likelihood” of being approved in the coming weeks, which has seemingly fueled investors’ expectations of a bullish “Solana Summer.” “The big question is how much demand there will be,” Daan asserted, noting that Ethereum (ETH) sport ETFs, approved in July 2024, had a disappointing launch and “only started seeing decent inflows about a year later.” SOL Ready For Another Breakout? Following the ETF-fueled breakout, analyst Hardy noted Solana’s “Textbook move, clean breakout, clean retest, and pump,” which could trigger a run toward the $200 barrier. Notably, the cryptocurrency saw a remarkable performance over the weekend, reclaiming the $144-$148 crucial area and breaking past the $150 mark. Amid this performance, the analyst highlighted that Solana had broken out of its local downtrend line after reclaiming the $148 resistance and was retesting the breakout zone. He explained that there is “Juicy liquidity sitting above, ready to be taken,” adding that Solana needed to hold the $150 support to continue its bullish run toward the next target. Related Reading: Analyst Reveals Rational Behind XRP Price Reaching $9.5 And $37.5 Meanwhile, analyst Crypto Batman considers that Solana is “setting up very nicely” after the $160 retest. Per the post, “It has broken out from a bullish flag pattern that bottomed at the 0.618 Fibonacci level, a clear sign of impulsive strength in the trend.” It’s worth noting that SOL has been trading within the bullish formation since the May breakout, hovering between the $130 and $180 range for nearly two months. The analyst forecasted that a quick retest to close the bullish Fair Value Gap (FVG) and the pattern’s upper boundary, around the $148 area, “could set the stage for the next leg.” As of this writing, Solana is trading at $155, a 2% increase in the daily timeframe.

The Bitcoin price has recently climbed back above the $108,000 mark, yet it struggles to surpass its current record of $111,800, creating a sense of uncertainty in the market.  This persistent inability to break through has characterized the cryptocurrency’s performance in recent weeks, leaving analysts to speculate on its next moves. Analyst Predicts Major Upswing  Crypto analyst Doctor Profit has outlined two potential scenarios for the Bitcoin price trajectory in the near term, offering insights into both immediate volatility and a long-term bullish outlook.  In a recent post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), Doctor Profit emphasized the significance of the current market conditions, suggesting that Bitcoin could reach between $120,000 and $150,000 in the coming months. Related Reading: Dogecoin Silent Build-Up: Double Bottom Hints At Explosive Move To $0.47 According to Doctor Profit, the market is poised for a breakout. He noted, “We’re standing in front of a breakout, one that has the potential to send Bitcoin into the $120,000–$150,000 zone over the next few months.”  This assertion is supported by data reflecting strong on-chain activity, favorable technical structures, liquidity flow, and macroeconomic factors. While the long-term outlook appears promising, he cautioned that short-term fluctuations will remain prevalent. Two Scenarios For The Bitcoin Price Doctor Profit outlined two primary outcomes that traders should consider. The first scenario involves a bullish breakout from a bull flag pattern, allowing Bitcoin to surge past the $113,000 resistance level and continue climbing without a pullback.  However, the analyst views this scenario as overly simplistic, suggesting that market makers typically prefer not to allow such parabolic moves to occur without a preceding shakeout. The second scenario, which appears more likely, involves either a rejection at the bull flag breakout or a liquidity grab at the $113,000 mark. This would potentially lead Bitcoin to revisit the lower boundary of the current range, around $90,000 to $93,000.  Doctor Profit noted that this region is attractive because it contains significant liquidity and a notable gap in the Chicago Mercantile Exchange (CME) futures market. He views a dip to these levels not as a bearish signal, but rather as an opportunity to accumulate more Bitcoin. In his analysis, he stated, “$93K is not bearish. It’s clearly a gift!.” Doctor Profit believes that this potential dip would not only reset market leverage but also shake out weaker hands, creating a more robust foundation for a subsequent rally. Macroeconomic Trends Favor BTC Looking at the long-term prospects, Doctor Profit highlighted that larger wallets continue to accumulate Bitcoin, indicating that major investors are positioning themselves for a significant upward movement.  He pointed to macroeconomic indicators, particularly the M2 money supply, which suggests that Bitcoin remains undervalued relative to broader economic trends.  Related Reading: TD Sequential Flashes Buy: Dogecoin Ready For Rebound To $0.21 Notably, the Bitcoin price has been trading within its current range for 226 days, which echoes patterns observed during previous accumulation phases before major price breakouts. As Doctor Profit concluded, the Bitcoin price trajectory remains optimistic, with expectations of reaching between $120,000 and $150,000 in the foreseeable future.  He notes that while there are multiple paths to achieving this target, a dip into the $90,000 to $93,000 range would provide a crucial opportunity for accumulation and set the stage for a powerful upward move.

After breaking out of a bullish formation, SEI is attempting to reclaim a crucial level to continue its rally. Some analysts suggest that the cryptocurrency is preparing for another massive rally toward the $0.50 resistance. Related Reading: Bitcoin Next Price Discovery Coming? Analyst Shares BTC’s 2025 Roadmap SEI Leads Crypto Market As the market recovers from the recent pullback, SEI has soared from its local low and broken out of crucial levels. Earlier this week, the cryptocurrency pulled a nearly 100% rally from its 16% drop. Notably, SEI’s price followed the rest of the market last week and retested the $0.15 level, a support not seen since early April. Over the weekend, the altcoin recovered the crucial $0.20 area before jumping nearly 70% at the start of the week. Since then, the token has been hovering between $0.24 and $0.29, attempting to break out of the $0.30 resistance on Friday morning. Following this performance, analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems named SEI the “Bull of the week,” highlighting the cryptocurrency’s “beast mode” fueled by “the record on-chain activity of the token that has brought in new investors and whales” to the network after the breakout. Notably, the cryptocurrency is leading the top 100 cryptocurrencies list with a 43% weekly surge, surpassing the performance of market leaders Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH). Crypto Raven noted that SEI “has done a great job of breaking out as the market is looking very fresh right now,” suggesting the cryptocurrency could rally another 70%. Per the post, “if the market supports a bit more, we can very well reach $.5 from here. Back to the glory days of SEI.”   Nonetheless, the market watcher considers that the altcoin could consolidate around the current area for a short period before continuing its rally toward the Q4 2024 levels. $0.28 Reclaim Needed For Bullish Continuation Analyst Nebraskangooner highlighted a four-month inverse Head and Shoulders (H&S) pattern on SEI’s chart, noting that it was confirmed after this week’s breakout. The cryptocurrency broke out of the formation’s neckline after Wednesday’s price action, pointing out that “anything down to key support would be a solid retest spot.” After the retracement to the $0.27 area, the cryptocurrency retested the neckline, which SEI must hold for bullish continuation. Notably, SEI’s price has held this level despite closing around the $0.25 mark on Thursday. Similarly, Michaël van de Poppe affirmed that SEI will likely continue to rally as a “massive” bullish divergence on its trading pair against Bitcoin suggests that the cryptocurrency’s price is reversing. Based on this, the analyst forecasted that investors could “see 300+ sats soon.” Related Reading: Solana Price At ‘A Very Delicate Level’ – Analyst Says $148 Reclaim Is Key Meanwhile, market watcher The Wyckoff Architect shared a Low Time Frame (LTF) analysis on SEI’s price action. To the analyst, a reclaim of the Fair Value Gap (FVG) at $0.285 will confirm bullish continuation, with the cryptocurrency consolidating before breaking out. On the contrary, failing to reclaim and hold this area would trigger a bear scenario and risk a drop to a new local low. As of this writing, SEI is trading at $0.28, a 12% increase in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

The XRP price experienced a significant decline on Thursday following new developments in the ongoing legal dispute between Ripple Labs and the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).  Judge Analisa Torres’ decision to deny the joint motion from Ripple and the SEC for an indicative ruling halted the XRP price recovery as it aimed to breach the nearest resistance level at $2.23. Key Issues Unresolved For Ripple Despite the SEC dropping its appeal, which indicated that the primary legal conflict between the two parties may be reaching a conclusion, Judge Torres’ ruling highlighted that several procedural matters still require resolution, including necessary court approvals.  In her judgment, she made it clear that private agreements cannot supersede public court decisions, stating, “The parties do not have the authority to agree not to be bound by a court’s final judgment… They have not come close to doing so here.” Related Reading: XRP Gears Up For Major Move — Chart Signals Are Clear In response to the ruling, Ripple’s Chief Legal Officer, Stuart Alderoty, took to social media platform X (formerly Twitter) to convey that the situation is now back in Ripple’s hands.  The executive pointed out that the court has given them two options: either to dismiss their appeal regarding the historic institutional sales or to continue with the appeal.  Regardless of the path chosen, Alderoty emphasized that XRP’s legal status as a non-security remains intact, reassuring stakeholders that it is business as usual. Expert Reactions To Torres’ Decision Legal expert Fred Rispoli also weighed in on the implications of the injunction, stating that it would not impact XRP in secondary markets or affect potential exchange-traded fund (ETF) filings awaiting approval by the SEC.  He noted that the injunction is merely a court document and emphasized the low likelihood of Judge Torres calling Ripple and the SEC back into court unless the SEC believes Ripple is violating the terms of the injunction.  Rispoli further questioned whether the SEC has the authority to grant Ripple the necessary exemptions to alleviate any restrictions imposed by the injunction, suggesting that such actions fall within the SEC’s executive powers. Ripple has asserted that it has adjusted its operations to align with the court’s findings, particularly regarding its past sales to institutional investors.  Related Reading: Is The Bitcoin Top In? Bitcoin MVRV-Score Has The Answer Alderoty’s use of the term “historic institutional sales” in his recent statement indicates a shift in how both parties might approach future transactions, signaling a potential settlement that would allow XRP sales to institutions in a manner acceptable to the SEC. XRP Price Could Reach $5 Despite this temporary setback, market analysts remain optimistic about XRP’s future. Crypto analyst CryptoBullet recently noted that XRP’s two-week price chart resembles patterns seen in 2017, including a significant accumulation phase and a potential breakout.  With this historical context in mind, the expert predicts a final surge in the XRP price, forecasting new all-time high targets between $4.50 and $5.40 for the cryptocurrency. As of press time, the XRP price has retreated to the $2.08 mark, which is a key support level for bulls anticipating further recovery of the token. In the last 24 hours, XRP has dropped 4.4%, and 10% in the last month. According to CoinGecko data, the XRP price remains 38% below its record high of $3.40.

This week, Bitcoin (BTC) has recovered from its recent drop below the $100,000 level and is attempting to turn the crucial $108,000 resistance into support for the fourth time. As we approach the second half of 2025, a market watcher has shared his forecast for BTC. Related Reading: Solana Price At ‘A Very Delicate Level’ – Analyst Says $148 Reclaim Is Key Bitcoin Sees Transitional Period On Thursday, analyst Rekt Capital shared a roadmap for BTC for the rest of the year. He noted that this cycle has been “truly a cycle of re-accumulation ranges,” explaining that these have formed throughout the cycle since the end of 2022 and evolved since the Bitcoin Halving last year. In the pre-having period, BTC registered brief price deviations with downside wicks below the re-accumulation range lows in the weekly chart. Meanwhile, the post-halving period has seen Bitcoin deviations occur with multi-week clusters of full-bodied candles below the range lows. For instance, after its first price discovery uptrend, which lasted around seven weeks, BTC moved within its re-accumulation range for about ten weeks. Then, it transitioned into the first Price Discovery Correction, recording a nine-week downside deviation below the range lows before breaking out and rallying past the range highs toward a new ATH last month. Its past performances suggested that BTC was ready to enter its second Price Discovery Uptrend. But as Rekt Capital detailed, a transitional period has occurred for the first time, with price consolidating around the re-accumulation range high area. According to the analyst, this is “perhaps the first time that we’re seeing a deviation occur below the range high,” making this area a crucial level to transition into a new uptrend. We never really had to pull back substantially, maybe, until that final corrective period, which would last multiple months, but each re-accumulation range would see quite a bit of upside, and that upside would be very quick and no real post-breakout retesting, no real pausing. What we’re seeing here is something very, very different. Weekly Close Key For BTC’s Future Based on its new transition period, the key level for Bitcoin to reclaim in the weekly timeframe is the $104,400 support, which it held for nearly seven weeks before the recent pullbacks. This level was lost after BTC closed last week below it and “should not become a resistance level.” To the analyst, it’s key that this week’s close solidifies the price recovery as it would position the cryptocurrency for a retest and confirmation of $104,400 as support and continue the build the base around this area to transition into the next multi-week Price Discovery Uptrend. Rekt Capital added that the timeline for BTC’s next uptrend will depend on the length of the new transitional period. However, he believes that it will take “a bit longer” to break out.

Nonetheless, the analyst affirmed that it’s crucial that the next corrective period, which could see Bitcoin drop between 25% to 33%, is short to potentially enjoy a third Price Discovery Uptrend before the bear market. As of this writing, BTC is trading at $107,555, a 3.2% increase in the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Despite recovering from the weekend retrace, Solana (SOL) is trading between two levels that could make or break the altcoin’s rally. Nonetheless, some analysts suggest that the cryptocurrency could be gearing up for a massive breakout beyond the local highs. Related Reading: Injective Prepares For Bullish Reversal Amid 25% Recovery – Analyst Forecasts Massive Breakout Solana Sits At Decisive Level On Wednesday, Solana fell to the $143 mark after failing to reclaim a crucial area lost over a week ago. Following the May breakout, the cryptocurrency hovered between the $148-$184 price range, hitting a four-month high of $187 at the end of last month. However, the June market pullback saw SOL lose its range and move toward the $144-$148 levels. This area was briefly lost during the weekend retrace, with Solana falling to the $125 support level before recovering. Over the past three days, the altcoin has surged nearly 15%, touching the $148 barrier on Wednesday morning, which has been one of the key levels since May. After recovering from the recent drop, SOL has attempted to reclaim this level, but was rejected once again. Analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems highlighted that Solana “just completed a very nice V-shaped recovery from the low,” but noted that the cryptocurrency is at a “very delicate level” as it trades within the $144-$148 zone. He suggested that investors should pay attention to this area, as a reclaim of the $148 resistance could propel the price to a “quick move to the upside.” On the contrary, rejection from this level and losing the $144 range low could signal that the recent price action was a bearish retest. Analyst Man of Bitcoin affirmed that a “sustained break above the resistance zone would be the first signal that the chart has formed a low. He detailed that a confirmed break above the $148 resistance would support the case for a reversal. Nonetheless, he warned that a potential scenario “with one more low in wave-5.” SOL Ready For A Rally Continuation? As price hovers between the $143-$144 levels, market watcher Altcoin Hunter considers that SOL is “dancing with the devil.” He pointed out that the cryptocurrency has been trading within a one-month falling wedge, with the $148-$150 rejection zone “coming in HOT.” Per the post, failing to break out will send Solana “back to the shadow realm,” but “given how easily market sentiment shot up, Valhalla is likely.” Meanwhile, trader Rose Premium Signals stated that the cryptocurrency is “preparing for a strong breakout” from its one-month falling wedge pattern.

The market watcher that Solana bounced from the crucial $125-$130 demand zone, which is in confluence with the 0.618 Fib level. Notably, the altcoin held above this area on the weekly timeframe despite the pullback. According to the trader, a breakout from the formation could trigger a “sharp move upward” toward the initial $204 target, potentially followed by a surge toward the $229 and $258 areas. As of this writing, Solana is trading at $143, a 1.3% decline in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

The cryptocurrency market is currently experiencing heightened volatility, particularly with Bitcoin (BTC) fluctuating dramatically. Recently, the price dipped below $99,000 before rebounding to over $106,000 within a span of just 24 hours. Bullish Bitcoin Setup Amid Geopolitical Tensions In a recent post on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), analyst Cyclop suggested that despite the current market conditions, BTC exhibits a bullish setup reminiscent of the patterns seen in March 2020.  The analyst noted that Bitcoin appears to be mirroring its past movements, with a brief dip followed by a rally for both BTC and altcoins. Cyclop drew parallels between the ongoing geopolitical tensions involving Israel, Iran, and the US and the market dynamics observed during the COVID-19 crash.  Related Reading: Dogecoin About To Explode? ‘Don’t Send It Too Hard,’ Analyst Warns While acknowledging that geopolitical strife and global market panic are distinct issues, he pointed out that both scenarios resulted in sharp but temporary sell-offs followed by swift recoveries. According to Cyclop, the current market setup displays similar characteristics: widespread fear, a risk-off sentiment among investors, and global uncertainty.  He emphasized the importance of understanding the timing of resolution to these tensions, suggesting that for a robust rally, several bullish catalysts are necessary to alleviate market uncertainty. He identified three key factors: potential interest rate cuts, a ceasefire between Iran and Israel, and Bitcoin holding crucial support levels. $120,000 By Year-End? Recently, a ceasefire was declared following 12 days of intense conflict between Iran and Israel. In a notable public statement, President Donald Trump criticized both nations, suggesting that their actions were misguided.  This period of relative calm is seen as a positive indicator for the market. Cyclop highlighted that maintaining the $100,000 level for Bitcoin was crucial, and the cryptocurrency has successfully broken through the $106,000 barrier, signaling further growth. Furthermore, Ethereum (ETH) has also shown signs of a quick recovery alongside Bitcoin with its price nearing the key $2,500 level. Cyclop advised investors not to attempt to time the market perfectly, as reversals can often feel unsettling and uncertain.  Related Reading: Ethereum Bounces Hard After Support Bluff, A False Alarm Or Fresh Rally? Looking ahead, Cyclop anticipates a consolidation phase for Bitcoin within the $102,000 to $106,000 range, with expectations of a breakout that could push BTC to an all-time high of around $120,000 by November or December of this year.  As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading at $106,500 per coin. Despite ongoing economic uncertainties, the market’s leading cryptocurrency has seen a 75% increase year-to-date. However, Bitcoin is still trading nearly 5% below its record high of $111,800, which was reached on May 23. The most important resistance level is $110,200, which has prevented a new price discovery phase for Bitcoin on two occasions. Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com

Injective Sees Strong Daily Move On Tuesday, Injective saw a massive recovery from its recent drop to the $9 mark, and it’s attempting to reclaim a crucial resistance level. The cryptocurrency has been in a downtrend this month, driven by the increasing global geopolitical tensions. Since hitting its December high of $35.26, INJ has retraced over 65%, dropping below the $10 support multiple times during the 2025 retraces. However, the April-May rally saw the cryptocurrency break out of its multi-month downtrend and climb to its $10-$15 local price range. Following Monday night’s news of a potential ceasefire between Israel and Iran, Injective, alongside the rest of the market, reclaimed some of its recently lost levels, surging to the $11 area on Tuesday morning and nearing a crucial resistance. Notably, INJ recorded a 26% rally intraday to hit the $12.02 mark, becoming one of the leading tokens during the crypto market’s rebound. Analyst Crypto Rand noted that the cryptocurrency is now pushing over the June downtrend resistance following its price recovery, suggesting an explosive surge. According to the post, a breakout above the $12 resistance range would “trigger the bull reversal,” which could propel Injective’s price toward the local range high resistance around the $15 mark. Meanwhile, Crypto Busy highlighted that the cryptocurrency “just delivered one of the strongest moves in today’s altcoin rally” in “just a few candles” after bouncing from the $9 support zone. The analyst added that INJ continues to be “one of the most responsive altcoins when Bitcoin bounces,” forecasting potentially more bullish price action driven by the Injective Summit 2025, scheduled for June 26. INJ Ready For Massive Rally? Market watcher Clinton highlighted that INJ just completed its retest of its multi-month descending broadening wedge. According to the post, Injective bounced from the pattern’s resistance level, confirming the May breakout in the daily timeframe. This could set the cryptocurrency’s price for a 100%-150% “massive bullish rally” toward the $23-$30 levels if price holds the $11.5-$11.6 support zone, which served as a key area over the past two months. Additionally, analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems affirmed that Injective is forming a “very clear” Power of Three (Po3) setup since the May Breakout. In this pattern, a cryptocurrency’s price cycle is divided into three phases: accumulation, manipulation, and distribution. The first phase sees a token’s price consolidate near the recent high after a strong performance. This is followed by the price falling below the accumulation phase support level, trading within a range below the recently lost zone.

Based on this, Injective has entered the distribution phase, which is expected to lead to a “nice expansion” toward the $16 local resistance, “as long as we don’t find acceptance back below support.” As of this writing, Injective is trading at $11.64, a 3% increase in the daily timeframe.

Amid the market performance, BNB is attempting to reclaim the $650 level. Some analysts believe that a breakout toward the $700 barrier might occur next, which could lead to a bigger move to new highs. Related Reading: Solana Correction About To End? Analyst Forecasts $130 Retest Before Next Wave Up BNB Breakout To Retest $700 On Friday, BNB dropped to the $640 support after failing to hold the mid-zone of its local price range. The cryptocurrency has been trading within the $630-$690 price range following its reclaim of the $600 barrier last month. During the May breakout, BNB neared the crucial $700 resistance level, hitting a four-month high of $697. This key level propelled the altcoin’s price toward its $788 all-time high (ATH) after being broken in late 2024 and was lost during the early 2025 pullbacks. Now, the cryptocurrency is eyeing a reclaim of this area as support to continue its price recovery. Analyst Carl Runefelt from The Moon Show noted that BNB displays a one-month descending triangle pattern on the daily timeframe, with price compressing between the support and resistance levels. According to the chart, the formation’s support sits around the $635 level, while the descending resistance sits around the $650 area. To Runefelt, a bullish breakout from this pattern could propel the token 10% toward the $700 resistance. Notably, reclaiming and confirming this key area as support could also send BNB’s price toward another crucial horizontal level. Analyst Crypto Batman recently highlighted that BNB is forming a multi-month ascending triangle, “holding strong” near the ascending trendline after continuing to bounce from the $635-$640 support zone. To the market watcher, “Even with market uncertainty, BNB structure is clean after respecting the trendline and bouncing off major support, now eyeing a breakout above $700,” which could be part of a bigger move toward the $800 level. Is A Move To $800 Coming? Crypto Batman also noted that the cryptocurrency could be following the same price action as last year. He asserted that the altcoin’s price “loves testing key zones before liftoff,” adding that it is displaying the same base form as it did in Q3 2024. Last year, the token formed a three-month base around the $460-$470 area, which led to an “explosive” run over the next few months. This year, BNB formed a similar base near the $550 level, and it’s “showing strength again.” To the analyst, “If the pattern repeats, then patience will give us profits.” Additionally, he pointed out that despite the early April retraces, BNB held its macro range, trading above the range lows and multi-time-tested support. Related Reading: SUI Preparing For New Highs As Falling Wedge Breakout Targets $5 The cryptocurrency is now consolidating near the mid-zone, which could propel the price to a retest of the macro range highs around the $729 mark. He explained that “If we see a breakout above the $729 resistance, it could open the path toward a 50% move to the upside.” The analyst affirmed that BNB’s structure remains bullish as long as the cryptocurrency holds the $490-$500 levels, adding that the $600 mark is also a strong support. As of this writing, BNB is trading at $641, a 2.9% decline in the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Amid the geopolitical turmoil, Solana (SOL) has retraced 10% in the past week. Some analysts believe that the altcoin’s correction is about to end, but warned that a dip below a key support level might come first. Related Reading: SUI Preparing For New Highs As Falling Wedge Breakout Targets $5 Solana Eyes Key Retest Before Breakout After retesting the $168 resistance last Wednesday, Solana has fallen back to a key level fueled by the recent market pullback. The cryptocurrency has seen a 15% retracement from its monthly highs, trading around the $140 zone for the past three days. SOL has been hovering between the $145-$180 price range since its May breakout, falling to the range lows during the June market shakeouts. Since then, the altcoin has struggled to reclaim the $160-$170 mid-zone. Nonetheless, market watcher Lluciano considers that Solana “may dip a bit more, but the ultimate target is seriously huge.” The analyst highlighted SOL’s performance since April, noting that it ended its multi-month downtrend after breaking above its descending resistance at the end of March. After this price action, SOL retested the $100-$120 demand zone before breaking out to its current range in the following weeks. Now, the altcoin’s chart displays a one-month falling wedge pattern, with the upper boundary sitting around the $155-$160 area. To the analyst, a breakout from this pattern could send the cryptocurrency toward May’s $187 high resistance before propelling the price to retest the $240 mark. Similarly, trader Rose noted that SOL has been consolidating above the key $145 resistance and 50-day Moving Average (MA), signaling a potential breakout. “If confirmed, the price could rise toward targets at $165, $183, and $220,” they suggested. SOL To Underperform In Coming Months? Market watcher Crypto Bullet suggested that Solana’s correction is coming to an end. The analyst forecasted that SOL could soon lose its current range and retest the April consolidation range, around the $125-$135 area, to complete the correction. This would be followed by a bounce back into the current range before surging past the $200 barrier toward the $220-$250 targets, for “one more wave up” this cycle. Meanwhile, Altcoin Sherpa affirmed Solana won’t outperform like it did during the first half of the cycle. According to the analyst, the cryptocurrency won’t outperform Bitcoin (BTC) on any long-term timeframe “other than a few blips here and there.” Related Reading: Bitcoin Setting Up For ‘Large Move’ Amid $103,000 Retest – Key Levels To Watch He explained that the cycle’s leading altcoin isn’t “dead,” but that he doesn’t “see it having a run like it did in 2021/2024.” Notably, SOL is currently retesting its late November 2023 support levels against BTC, which previously sent it to yearly lows after failing to hold them. Altcoin Sherpa concluded that Solana will likely continue to climb against its USDT pair but continue to bleed in its SOL/BTC chart. As of this writing, Solana is trading at $145, a 12.1% decline in the monthly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

After falling below the key $3.00 mark, SUI now retests a make-or-break level that could ignite or stall the cryptocurrency’s rally. However, some market watchers believe that the altcoin is preparing for new highs despite the recent pullback. Related Reading: Bitcoin Setting Up For ‘Large Move’ Amid $103,000 Retest – Key Levels To Watch SUI Eyes Breakout To $5 This week, SUI fell below the $3.00 mark amid the Israel-Iran news-fueled market retrace. The cryptocurrency has seen a 7% decline over the past three days, hitting a two-month low of $2.68 on Wednesday morning before recovering. Since its late April breakout, SUI has been trading within the $2.33-$4.10 range, with the price hovering around the upper boundary over the past two months. Notably, the altcoin ended its multi-month downtrend after breaking above its descending resistance at the end of March, leading to its rally to the $4.00 mark. On Wednesday, analyst Crypto Bullet suggested that it could be preparing for a similar performance. According to the post, SUI broke down a falling wedge pattern before bouncing off the yearly Exponential Moving Average (EMA) and Moving Average (MA) between March and April, which propelled the downtrend breakout and rally to its May high. Now, the cryptocurrency is testing the EMA and MA again, while printing a new falling wedge pattern that targets the $5.00-$5.50 area. To Crypto Bullet, “This is where SUI is gonna establish a Higher Low and soon rise to a New ATH.” Earlier this month, the analyst also highlighted a one-year rising wedge pattern that eyes the $8-$10 levels as the next major target for the cryptocurrency. The high-timeframe chart shows the altcoin has been hovering between the pattern’s upper and lower boundaries since early 2024. Amid its April price action, the cryptocurrency bounced from the pattern’s support, suggesting that a surge to the resistance line will come in the coming months if history repeats. Make-Or-Break Level Retest Meanwhile, trader Coinvo noted that SUI is currently retesting a make-or-break level, the key $2.80 area, which acted as support and weak resistance earlier this year. Holding this level is crucial for the cryptocurrency’s rally, as a drop could send the price toward the $2.33 range low and risk a potential retest of the $2.00 support. On the contrary, price stability in this area could propel a reclaim of the $3.00 barrier and a recovery of the range highs, which is necessary for a bullish rally continuation. As analyst Rekt Capital previously warned, June’s performance will be decisive for its mid-term action. Related Reading: Ethereum Eyes Big Move As Price Compresses Between Key Levels – $2,100 Or $4,000 Next? It’s worth noting that SUI has built a re-accumulation range around the same levels as it did in late 2024. At the time, it consolidated around the $3.39-$3.78 levels for weeks before Weekly Closing above the range and setting up for its all-time high (ATH) breakout. This time, the cryptocurrency has been consolidating less cleanly than last year, failing to secure a weekly close inside the range for two consecutive weeks. SUI must reclaim the $3.39 area in the coming weeks to maintain its Monthly Bull Flag and position itself for higher levels. As of this writing, SUI is trading at $2.79, a 3.3% decline in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

As geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to impact cryptocurrency prices, with Bitcoin (BTC) recently dipping below the $105,000 mark, market analyst VirtualBacon has shared insights suggesting that altcoins are gearing up for a potentially robust summer.  Emerging AI Memecoins In a recent update on social media platform X (formerly Twitter), he highlighted several promising developments within the altcoin space. VirtualBacon pointed to an emerging wave of AI-focused Layer-1 blockchain projects, many backed by prominent figures in both the cryptocurrency and traditional finance sectors.  He mentioned several names to watch, including Sahara Labs, Sentient AGI, and Gaianet, among others. While these projects have yet to release tokens, many are expected to conduct airdrops or early access rounds, presenting opportunities for early investors. Related Reading: On-Chain Analyst Warns: Bitcoin Peak Expected, Altcoins Facing -95% Plunge For those seeking “higher-risk, high-reward investments,” VirtualBacon noted the impressive performance of artificial intelligence (AI) agent memecoins. He cited the launch of IRIS, which skyrocketed from a $220,000 fully diluted valuation (FDV) to $120 million, representing a 600x return.  Platforms such as Virtuals, CreatorBid, and SeedifyFund are turning user engagement into allocation opportunities, likening this phenomenon to a form of airdrop farming on steroids. In addition, VirtualBacon highlighted a relatively overlooked area: Bittensor subnet tokens. He mentioned that seasoned investors can now acquire early-stage subnets directly on Bittensor’s chain, with projects like SN65_TPN and inference_labs raising capital through token auctions at valuations below $4 million. Stablecoins Take Center Stage Turning to real-world assets (RWAs), VirtualBacon advised focusing on mid-cap infrastructure projects with tangible revenue streams. He pointed to CHEX and CPOOL, which has shown consistent upward movement, as examples of promising investments. Another emerging narrative is the merger and acquisition activity involving public companies and crypto projects. VirtualBacon noted that Tron is set to go public through a Nasdaq reverse merger, while Mixie has been acquired by Netcapital, which boasts a team that includes notable figures like Tim Draper and a co-founder of Helium.  A particularly intriguing development is World Liberty Financial (WLF), co-founded by Eric and Donald Jr. Trump, which aims to become a major player in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.  With plans for its own stablecoin, USD1, and expected to launch in October, the token could have an estimated FDV of $10–15 billion, a conservative projection given its potential. VirtualBacon also pointed out that stablecoins are becoming central to macroeconomic strategies. Tether now ranks as the fifth-largest holder of US Treasuries, highlighting the increasing need for buyers in the market.  The analyst urged investors to keep an eye on stablecoin projects that integrate artificial intelligence technology and yield generation, such as USD1, Circle’s USDC, and others. Liquidity Shifts To Altcoin Platforms In the gaming sector, liquidity is coalescing around BlackholeDex, a decentralized exchange (DEX) backed by the AVAX Foundation. With a fee-sharing model similar to Aerodrome and Shadow, BlackholeDex has launched veNFT staking, aligning long-term incentives for users. Related Reading: Ethereum Slows Down In June: Historical Data Says More Losses To Come Lastly, in the Solana ecosystem, Saros DLMM is emerging as a strong competitor to existing platforms like Jupiter and Meteora, utilizing similar bucket-based liquidity pools but with lower fees.  It also plans a RADY meme airdrop for SAROS stakers, which could attract early adopters and fuel rapid growth, thus closing the list of highlighted altcoins. As of this writing, Ethereum, the market’s leading altcoin, is trading at $2,521. It has consolidated above this level after dropping sharply from its two-week high of $2,878.

Crypto analyst Cyclop has made a potentially significant statement, claiming that the ongoing crisis between Israel and Iran may inadvertently boost the performance of digital assets.  Despite recent volatility, which saw a sell-off of approximately $140 billion in the crypto market, Cyclop’s long-term analysis reveals a more optimistic outlook for the broader digital asset industry. Analyst Predicts Bullish Trends For Crypto Amid Conflicts In a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), Cyclop pointed to historical patterns that suggest geopolitical tensions often lead to bullish trends in cryptocurrency.  Citing specific instances from April and October 2024, he noted that Bitcoin (BTC) experienced an initial decline of 18% and 10% respectively during these conflicts, only to rebound with impressive gains of 28% and 62% shortly thereafter.  This trend, he argues, indicates a recurring cycle where war-related dips in crypto prices eventually transform into significant growth, as can be depicted in the chart below shared by Cyclop. Related Reading: On-Chain Analyst Warns: Bitcoin Peak Expected, Altcoins Facing -95% Plunge The analyst explains that while such conflicts can trigger short-term bearish movements, the overarching impact tends to be favorable for cryptocurrencies.  As wars ignite fears of inflation and instability, Cyclop has noted that many investors for the traditional finance arena turn to crypto as a hedge against weakening fiat currencies.  Unlike traditional bank accounts, cryptocurrencies are not subject to freezing, he said, making them appealing during times of geopolitical unrest. Increasingly, digital currencies are being viewed as a form of “digital gold,” a safe haven in tumultuous times. Favorable Macroeconomic Factors The current market dynamics echo previous events, such as the Russia-Ukraine conflict and US-Iran tensions in 2020, which similarly resulted in temporary dips followed by recoveries. Cyclop remains confident that the present situation will yield similar outcomes, despite the typical summer slowdown that often affects market activity. Supporting this bullish sentiment are favorable macroeconomic factors. Recent developments indicate that the US and China have reached a compromise, easing tariffs and aiming to stabilize global supply chains. This move is expected to help cool inflation and restore investor confidence.  Moreover, President Donald Trump’s decision to delay new tariffs has contributed to a more risk-friendly environment, allowing liquidity to flow back into crypto markets. Related Reading: Dogecoin Sets The Stage For A Liftoff With Key Reversal Pattern Further aiding this positive outlook is the latest Consumer Price Index (CPI) report, which showed a modest increase of just 0.1% month-over-month, slightly below forecasts.  With year-over-year inflation at 2.4%—down from an expected 2.5%—the Federal Reserve (Fed) is now anticipated to cut interest rates twice by the end of the year. Historically, such rate cuts have been bullish for cryptocurrencies, as they often lead to increased liquidity in the markets. While the immediate aftermath of the Israel-Iran conflict may present challenges, historical data suggests that cryptocurrencies have the potential to thrive in such environments.  Featured image from DALL-E, chart from TradingView.com 

Amid the tension in the Iran-Israel conflict, the cryptocurrency market experienced another daily pullback. Bitcoin (BTC), which had just recovered from Friday’s drop, erased its recent gains and recorded a 4.5% dip to the $103,000 mark in the past 24 hours. However, some analysts believe that the flagship crypto is preparing for a big move in the coming weeks. Related Reading: Ethereum Eyes Big Move As Price Compresses Between Key Levels – $2,100 Or $4,000 Next? Bitcoin Could See Massive Move Soon On Monday, Bitcoin attempted to break its post-November range high but failed to hold the $108,000-$109,000 area as support for the fourth time in a month, falling back into its larger range. Market watcher Daan Crypto Trades noted that this resistance level remains a key area to watch, adding that “without a clean break above, it’s not the time to get excited just yet.” Nonetheless, the trader considers that the BTC is “setting up for a large move” as the cryptocurrency continues to hold its monthly range between $100,000 and $110,000. He asserted that this range will break “at some point in June,” as well as the current weekly high and low, which have “a very low probability of being held” in the coming days. Daan added that a break from these levels is highly possible in the next 1-2 weeks, likely leading to a big move in the direction of the break. Analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems highlighted the crypto market’s performance and investors’ concerns amid the war-related headlines, noting that Bitcoin reacted in a similar pattern during past geopolitical and crypto-related events. According to the analyst, global events’ uncertainty has led to mass liquidation and on-chain panic multiple times since 2020, leading to 30%-50% crashes. However, the market has recovered from these events after significant accumulation. Here’s the pattern: Big event (Black Swan). Panic headlines. Sharp BTC dump. Retail Panic sells. Smart money buys. Time passes. Bitcoin hits new highs. Based on this, Sjuul forecasted a strong Bitcoin pump and a new all-time high (ATH) once the current war tensions are over. BTC Holds Key Support Amid Pullback Meanwhile, analyst Rekt Capital emphasized that Bitcoin has been retesting its old range high as support for the past six weeks and showing stability around the $104,400 level during this period. According to the analyst, as long as BTC’s price Weekly Closes above this level, the candle wicks below it are “just noise” and it is positioned to transition into its Second Price Discovery Uptrend. He also pointed out that the cryptocurrency has only seen a less than 10% dip during the recent pullbacks. Moreover, these drop depths have also been diminishing, with the first rejection producing a 7.72% drop and the second dip being 5.79% deep, while the current rejection has seen a 4.5% retrace so far. Rekt Capital considers the strongest support to be between the $102,000-$104,000 area, and the final level to break is the range high resistance of $108,890. Related Reading: XRP Must Complete Right Shoulder Before Takeoff—But How Low First? “As long as this resistance isn’t rejecting price too much, then maybe it’s getting weaker over time,” he affirmed, concluding that a weekly close above this level would be “a very strong sign for a reclaim of this resistance into new support to springboard price higher.” As of this writing, Bitcoin is trading at $105,085, a 1.1% jump in the past hour.

As Bitcoin (BTC) and the broader cryptocurrency market show tentative signs of recovery following the most recent correction, a crypto analyst has made a bold statement suggesting that the market may have already reached its peak.  BladeDeFi, in a recent post on X (formerly Twitter), warned followers that a significant downturn could be on the horizon, predicting a challenging summer ahead for the crypto space. Crypto Pump Or Trap? In his post, BladeDeFi emphasized that “crypto has already PEAKED” and forecasted a potential slump where alternative cryptocurrencies could see declines of up to 95%. He indicated that most indicators are flashing red, suggesting that the market is on the brink of a significant downturn.  According to him, Bitcoin has already hit its all-time high early in the current cycle and is now trapped in a “slow-motion downtrend,” with each subsequent bounce becoming weaker than the last. Related Reading: Bitcoin Gold Rush 2.0? Treasuries Swell With 60 New Players The analyst pointed out a concerning trend: retail investors are becoming exhausted, while larger institutional players have begun to exit the market. Major firms like BlackRock, Fidelity, and MicroStrategy are reportedly rotating their investments and hedging their positions, often without making their actions overtly public.  The analyst suggests that this shift leaves retail investors vulnerable, potentially left holding depreciating assets as liquidity in the market continues to dwindle. BladeDeFi also criticized the current market dynamics, warning that sudden price increases or “green candles” are often deceptive, serving only to entice late buyers into traps that lead to further losses.  He noted that without new capital inflows—such as fresh stimulus or significant investment—the recent price pumps lack sustainability. The absence of liquidity means that any upward movements are likely to be fleeting, and the overall trend remains downward. Bitcoin Poised For Year-End Peak? Adding to the bearish sentiment, another analyst, Peppeso, echoed similar concerns, suggesting that the top of the 2025 bull market has already been established.  Peppeso observed historical patterns in previous market cycles, noting that while bull markets have become longer, bear markets have shortened and softened in their impact.  Despite this, Bitcoin has consistently reached all-time highs in the final months of each cycle, reinforcing Peppeso’s expectation of a peak around November or December 2025. Related Reading: Ethereum Consolidation Continues – Altseason May Follow A Clean Break Above Resistance The current market environment is further complicated by macroeconomic factors, including rising interest rates and increasing geopolitical risks. With uncertainty clouding the outlook, many investors are adopting a risk-off approach, leading to a sustained downtrend in the crypto market.  Even popular memecoins like Dogecoin (DOGE) and Shiba Inu (SHIB) have experienced significant declines of 9% and 7% in the past week alone respectively, indicating that the hype surrounding these assets is fading.

Ethereum (ETH) is attempting to retest the local range highs following last week’s market shakeout. However, some analysts believe that the cryptocurrency will continue its sideways move for the coming weeks before its next big move. Related Reading: Will The Bitcoin Price Move Above $110,000 Again? Global M2 Money Supply Shows What’s Next Ethereum Eyes Range High Resistance Last week, Ethereum attempted to reclaim the $2,800 barrier, hitting a three-month high of $2,879. However, the market shakeout, fueled by the Iran-Israel conflict, sent the cryptocurrency’s price to retest its local range’s lows before recovering over the weekend. Notably, ETH has been hovering between the $2,400-$2,680 range since the early May market recovery, which saw the King of Altcoins surge from the $1,800 mark toward its current price range for the first time in three months. Nonetheless, it has been rejected from the local range’s resistance four times in the past month. Market watcher Daan Crypto Trades noted that Ethereum’s price action has been consolidating between these two key levels, compressing just below the $2,800 area. This level has been a crucial area throughout the cycle, serving as a key support and resistance level since 2024. The trader considers this area to be “the most important level on this entire chart by far,” detailing that every major retest of this zone has led to either “a nice bounce” or “big dump.” Meanwhile, ETH “went on to really even further” after every reclaim of this level as support. Daan explained that its current price range is “becoming quite a tight range for how long it’s been trading here. You can see how important this is and that there’s likely a big move coming from this point somewhere in the next few weeks.” Based on this, he forecasted that “If we’d see a convincing break above $2.8K and hold there, that would be a good setup for a move to the cycle highs around ~$4K.” However, if it loses this current range, then the $2,100 area “is the big high timeframe level to watch.” Is A 2017 Repeat In The Making? Merlijn The Trader highlighted that Ethereum is now consolidating within its current range after breaking out of a multi-month falling wedge, which suggests that the cryptocurrency could soon experience a massive move. He pointed out that, historically, “this pause often precedes a surge,” adding that the Relative Strength Index (RSI) is also retesting the recent breakout zone. Additionally, the trader noted that ETH appears to be following its 2016-2017 playbook, with a similar structure to eight years ago. At the time, the cryptocurrency had an “explosive setup” that led ETH to a massive lift-off starting in 2017. After the market shakeout, the cryptocurrency moved sideways within a tight range while reclaiming the 50-day Moving Average (MA). Related Reading: PEPE Pumps 2.67% – Is The Memecoin Preparing For A Major Rebound? Following the key reclaim, Ethereum’s price experienced a massive surge toward new highs. According to Merlijn, “Same breakout zone. Same 50 MA reclaim. Sideways chop… then liftoff. But this time? Bigger market. Institutional fuel is backing ETH. No ceiling in sight. We’re not repeating history… We’re amplifying it.” As of this writing, Ethereum is trading at $2,640, a 3.7% increase in the daily timeframe.

In line with the crypto market, Ethereum prices briefly crashed below $2,500 on Friday due to escalating geopolitical tensions between Israel and Iran. The prominent altcoin currently trades around $2,567 following a slight recovery but remains some distance off the week’s high of $2,871.  Amidst all these recent developments, prominent blockchain analytics company Santiment has shared a positive report hinting at a bullish ETH future. ETH Whale Holdings Grow By 3.72% In 30 Days  In an X post on June 14, Santiment provides valuable insights into Ethereum whales’ behaviors. The credible analytics firm reports that all 6,392 of such investors holding between 1,000 and 100,000 ETH have significantly increased their holdings over the past month compared to retail investors. Related Reading: This Analyst Predicted The Dogecoin Price Crash – Here’s The Rest Of The Forecast In adding data to this claim, Santiment further shares that ETH whales have acquired 1.49 million ETH, worth $38.26 million, in the past 30 days, boosting their total holdings by a significant 3.72%.  Generally, whale accumulations are bullish signals that indicate an asset’s strong potential for long-term price appreciation. Therefore, ETH’s recent whale activity is likely to encourage significant levels of retail investment that could incite a price rally.  Interestingly, CoinMarketCap data shows the altcoin has recorded a 2.38% decline over the past month. The token’s price has largely oscillated within a range of $2,400 to $2,800, reflecting indecision in the market amidst external pressures and a lack of clear bullish catalysts. Ethereum whales have conducted this accumulation spree during a period of market uncertainty, indicating strong investor confidence regardless of the present market situation.  Ethereum Price Overview At the time of writing, Ethereum trades at $2,536 following a price gain of 1.18% in the past day. Meanwhile, the altcoin is up by 3.82% on its weekly chart after a notable brief price ascent above $2,800.  According to data from CoinCodex, the general ETH market sentiment is bullish while the Greed & Fear Index stands at 61 (Greed). This report is well reflected in the reported accumulation trend.  Related Reading: Ethereum Faces Stress As Israel-Iran Conflict Shakes Sentiment – ETH/BTC Support In Focus The CoinCodex team predicts Ethereum will maintain its range-bound movement in the short term, as indicated by projections of $2,825.11 in five days and $2,767 in a month.  Meanwhile, their long-term forecasts paint a strong bullish future of $4,269.40 in the next three months.

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.

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.

Despite failing to break out of its downtrend, ONDO could be preparing for a surge above the $2 barrier. Some analysts suggest it could repeat its 2024 playbook if it continues to hold its current levels. Related Reading: Ethereum Prepares For Massive Run After $2,800 Reclaim – ‘Up Only’ Ahead? ONDO Breakout Eyes $2 ONDO, the native token of the tokenized real-world asset (RWA) platform Ondo Finance, is attempting to reclaim a key area amid the market pullback. Notably, the cryptocurrency has struggled to hold the $1 mark since losing the area as support over three months ago. In December, the RWA token hit its all-time high (ATH) of $2.14 after US President Donald Trump’s crypto venture, World Liberty Financial (WLFI), purchased 134,216 ONDO tokens for 250,000 USDC. This propelled ONDO’s price above the $2 barrier for the first time, but the late 2024 and Q1 2025 corrections halted its bullish momentum, sending its price to the $0.60-$0.70 range. Following the late April market recovery, ONDO’s price reclaimed the $0.85 area and broke out of its multi-month downtrend. The cryptocurrency then hovered between the $0.85-$1.10 levels throughout May, hitting a three-month high of $1.13 nearly a month ago. Since then, the token has been in a one-month downtrend, dipping below its local range after the recent market pullback. However, the cryptocurrency has been attempting to reclaim this range for the past week, hitting a one-week high of $0.92 on Wednesday. Crypto analyst World of Charts highlighted the token’s performance, affirming, “after a long correction, Finally Looking Good For Midterm.” As ONDO attempts to reclaim the $0.90 area, the analyst anticipates that the cryptocurrency will soon break out of its current range and the downtrend line, forecasting a 130% rally toward the $2 barrier. 2024 ATH Repeat Coming? On Thursday, analyst Sjuul from AltCryptoGems noted ONDO’s performance over the past year, asserting, “Not sure there are many other charts looking as good on high time frames like ONDO.” He explained that “The King of RWA” is “basically holding a bullish structure since its launch,” making a series of higher lows for over a year while maintaining its ascending support trendline. Meanwhile, analyst Alex Clay suggested that ONDO could see a parabolic run based on its performance in 2024. The market watcher noted that the token is currently accumulating at the bottom of a 15-month ascending channel, which previously served as a crucial bounce point for its rally toward its ATH. As Clay explained, after reaching the channel’s upper boundary last year, ONDO saw a multi-month downtrend toward the lower boundary, before printing a higher low. This was followed by a massive rally toward the channel’s top.

If history repeats, the cryptocurrency could surge toward the $2.8-$3 area. At the time of writing, ONDO trades at $0.84, a 5.2% decline in the daily timeframe.

As Ethereum (ETH) attempts to reclaim its January 2025 price range, the cryptocurrency has been holding a recently recovered level, leading some analysts to suggest another 10% surge before new highs. Related Reading: Bitcoin Eyes New Highs As Price Retests $109,000, But Analyst Warns Of Potential Pullback Ethereum Breakout Eyes $3,100 Ethereum has reclaimed the key $2,800 barrier for the first time since February, nearing the $2,900 level on Wednesday morning. The King of Altcoins had been trading between the $2,475-$2,680 range since its May breakout, unable to turn the range’s upper boundary into support. During last week’s retracement, ETH dropped to the $2,400 support before bouncing over the weekend. The crypto market’s recovery saw Ethereum surge toward the key resistance, finally breaking past it at the start of the week and hitting a three-month high of $2,879 today. Following this performance, Analyst Carl Runefelt from The Moon Show noted that the cryptocurrency had broken out of an ascending triangle formation and now targets the $3,100 resistance. The analyst previously highlighted ETH’s triangle pattern, which began forming at the start of last month’s recovery rally. During that period, the price compressed between the support and resistance lines, with the latter situated around the $2,700 mark. He forecasted a 15% surge toward the $3,100 level if the altcoin reclaimed the crucial resistance level. Based on this, Ethereum could climb another 10.7% if it holds its current range. Runefelt also pointed out another bullish formation in ETH’s trading pair against Bitcoin (BTC). According to the ETH/BTC chart, Ethereum also formed a bullish pennant pattern during the May rally. Amid this week’s recovery, the cryptocurrency has broken out of the formation’s upper boundary, eyeing a 30% surge toward the 0.03300 mark. ETH To Repeat History? Market Watcher Kaleo highlighted the resemblance between ETH’s performance between 2020 and 2025. According to the analyst, there are “a lot of similarities on the chart to where we are now vs. where we were in 2020.” As he explained, in the Spring of 2020, Ethereum experienced a major sell-off, fueled by the COVID-19 crash, which sent its price below a key higher timeframe (HFT) support. However, once the ascending trendline was reclaimed as support, ETH was “up only for the next 20 months.” Kaleo detailed the recent sell-off, caused by the Trump Tariffs scare, sent the altcoin below its multi-year ascending support trendline, adding that “ETH is currently on the verge of reclaiming that line.” Related Reading: Solana Triangle Formation Breakout Targets Rally To $164 – Is A Recovery Around The Corner? The analyst suggested that if history repeats, investors could see “another great ETH bull run and accompanying alt season.” Meanwhile, analyst DonAlt affirmed that ETH’s chart looks “pretty good” amid its HTF range reclaim. To him, a new all-time high (ATH) is likely if the $3,800 resistance is reclaimed, while the rally’s invalidation level is a close below the $2,200 mark. As of this writing, ETH trades at $2,803, a 6.7% increase in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Bitcoin (BTC) is trying to reclaim a crucial area amid its recent price recovery, which could propel the flagship crypto toward new highs. Some analysts suggested that BTC is preparing for the “final resistance,” while others warned that it still risks a potential pullback to lower levels. Related Reading: Solana Triangle Formation Breakout Targets Rally To $164 – Is A Recovery Around The Corner? Bitcoin Rally Eyes Next Resistance Bitcoin has finally regained significant bullish momentum after printing a massive daily candle on Monday. The flagship crypto recently lost its post-all-time high (ATH) range of $106,800-$109,700, sparking concern among some investors. Amid the recent market pullbacks, which began in late May, the flagship crypto also registered some volatility, losing key levels as support and hitting a one-month low near the $100,000 level last week. However, BTC reclaimed the $105,000 mark over the weekend before surging above the $106,800 crucial resistance on Monday. Following this performance, analyst Rekt Capital stated that Bitcoin has successfully retested the $104,400 re-accumulation range high resistance as new support for four weeks. He highlighted that BTC was “rebounding from this new support base in an effort to transition into Price Discovery again.” Additionally, Bitcoin ended its two-week downtrend, recording a Daily Close around the $110,500 area. Per the analyst, BTC “has skipped through the $106,600-$109,443 Daily Range entirely,” and is “once again positioning itself like in late May for a retest” of the range’s high as support, which propelled the price to its ATH last month. A daily close above the $109,443 level would set up BTC for a revisit of the “final Daily resistance,” around the $111,723 mark, before a new ATH. The analyst also affirmed that reclaiming the “final weekly resistance” of $108,900 as support would also add to BTC’s momentum. BTC In A ‘Dangerous Area’? Analyst Crypto Jelle suggested that turning the $108,000 price area into support could send Bitcoin to the price discovery phase, potentially targeting the $120,000 mark. He noted that previous unsuccessful breakout attempts failed to reclaim this level, but that the cryptocurrency is currently holding this area. Based on a multi-month pattern, Jelle also reaffirmed its $140,000-$150,000 target for BTC’s cycle top. The analyst highlighted a major inverted Head and Shoulders pattern forming since the end of 2024. According to the post, the pattern is “nearing completion” after the recent price drop formed the right shoulder, while the neckline sits around the $111,000 mark. A breakout above this level could send Bitcoin to Jelle’s cycle top target. Related Reading: Ethereum Price Eyes 38% Jump To $3,500 As 50EMA Swims Into View Altcoin Sherpa considers that BTC’s chart “looks pretty good” in the high-time timeframes, suggesting that he will be “bullish until shown otherwise.” However, he warned that Bitcoin is “still in a dangerous area” as it could drop to lower levels if it doesn’t reclaim the $110,000 level. To Sherpa, “it’s logical to assume some sort of pullback is going to come in the red supply zone,” which sits between the key resistance line and its ATH level. Meanwhile, Ali Martinez highlighted on X that BTC’s most important support area sits between the $102,770 and $106,090 levels, where 2.21 million addresses bought 1.39 million BTC. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $109,995, a 3.6% increase in the weekly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Solana (SOL) has recovered from the recent market pullback after bouncing from its local bottom. Amid its recent breakout from a bullish formation, some market watchers suggest that the cryptocurrency could recover its start-of-year glory. Related Reading: Bitcoin Weekly Chart Flexes Strength—Is The Moonshot Just Getting Started? Solana Breakout Eyes $164 Solana is recording a 2.45% surge in the weekly timeframe after recovering from its recent drop to the $140 area. The altcoin has seen a significant recovery from its multi-month downtrend, which led the token to hit a 14-month low of $95 during the early April retraces. However, SOL lost the $160 area amid the recent market corrections, dipping 11% in one week. Over the weekend, its price bounced nearly 10%, reclaiming the $150 level as support and forming an ascending triangle pattern. Crypto analyst Ali Martinez highlighted the 3-day formation in Solana’s chart, suggesting a potential 6% jump to its recently lost support level. According to the post, the cryptocurrency broke out of the triangle formation on Monday after reclaiming the $155 area. A retest and breakout confirmation could propel Solana to the $164 barrier, which has not been seen in two weeks. Analyst CW noted that if SOL breaks through the selling barrier around the $160 level, “the previous price will recover quickly,” as reclaiming this level could send the price straight to the $180 area. Notably, the altcoin’s next significant selling wall is around the $180 resistance, which it has been unable to reclaim despite touching a $187 three-month high during the recent market rally. Recovering this key barrier could also push SOL’s price toward the $200 mark, enabling a rally to new highs. However, failing to hold the current levels could send the cryptocurrency’s price back toward the $142 buying wall, which served as support last week, or even the $135 level, where the next buy wall sits. SOL Preparing To Climb Higher? Market watcher Jeremy pointed out that Solana is “finally breaking out from this downtrend consolidation.” Per the post, the cryptocurrency has been consolidating in a descending channel since late May, hovering between the $140-$187 price range. Throughout this period, SOL’s price moved from the $180 mark toward the $144 support. Nonetheless, it broke out of the two-week descending channel after reclaiming the $155 level. Jeremy suggested that Solana’s price could “actually climb higher” if global conflicts and political disputes, like the Trump-Musk online feud, don’t continue to affect the market, concluding that “1 SOL = $300 is just a matter of time.” Related Reading: Pundit Says Do Not Ignore Ethereum Amid New All-Time Highs In Major Metric Meanwhile, crypto trader Coinvo recently affirmed that SOL’s bottom “is finally in,” highlighting a potential bullish megaphone pattern in SOL’s chart. The 18-month pattern shows that the fourth wave bounced from the formation’s lower boundary during the April pullback. This could signal a potential surge to the upper boundary, around the all-time high (ATH) levels, during the fifth wave. A breakout above the pattern’s resistance line could propel Solana to new highs As of this writing, Solana trades at $156, a 1.88% increase in the daily timeframe.

Amid the Trump-Musk online feud, Bitcoin (BTC) has hovered within the mid-and-low areas of its local price range, hitting a one-month low near the $100,000 support. However, some analysts suggest that the cryptocurrency is preparing for the “real” price jump toward a new all-time high (ATH) Related Reading: SUI Rally At Risk? Analysts Warn Of 30% Dip If This Level Doesn’t Hold Bitcoin Prepares For ‘Real Breakout’ Over the past 24 hours, Bitcoin experienced significant volatility fueled by the online feud between US President Donald Trump and Tesla and X owner Elon Musk. The flagship crypto’s price took a beating on Thursday afternoon after dropping by over 5% from the $105,000 level to the $100,000 support. Before the pullback, BTC had been attempting to reclaim its local mid-range area after its recent performance. Notably, the cryptocurrency traded sideways following its ATH rally to $111,980, hovering between the $106,800 and $109,700 price range. However, the cryptocurrency lost the key $106,800 support amid last week’s market retracement, which saw Bitcoin drop to $102,000 over the weekend. Since then, BTC has been attempting to reclaim the current levels. After yesterday’s drop, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization has surged 4.5%, climbing above the $104,000 level. Crypto trader Coinvo highlighted BTC’s one-year chart, pointing to the similarly looking price action between 2024 and 2025. According to the chart, Bitcoin recorded its first major pump after reclaiming its yearly opening level, consolidating within its new range for weeks before climbing to its Q1 2024 ATH. This year, the cryptocurrency has had a similar performance, although delayed, having reclaimed the yearly opening range and surging to the first major price surge in May. Similarly, analyst Alex Clay suggested that Bitcoin is preparing for the “real breakout” following its retests of the range’s mid-zone resistance in Q1 2025 and a “false” breakout last month. To the analyst, “We grabbed the liquidity below the Broken Supply Zone. Now looking for a Real Breakout” toward the $120,000 mark. BTC Price To Range For Two Weeks? The Cryptonomist noted that Bitcoin displays a 3-week bullish falling wedge formation, with the lower boundary sitting around the $101,000 level. Following the recent price drop, BTC bounced from that area, and could break out of the pattern if it reclaims the $105,000 barrier as support, targeting the $118,000-$120,000 levels. Meanwhile, market watcher Daan Crypto Trades highlighted that its price now trades at the mid-range again, near the Monthly opening price. To the trader, “it’s pretty safe to assume that these range high/lows are good triggers for whatever larger trend follows,” as BTC has been having a “relatively large move early in the month.” As he previously explained, Bitcoin tends to set its monthly high or low during the first week of the month, followed by a reversal in the opposite direction and a trend continuation until a new month begins. Based on this, he warned that if the price drops below yesterday’s lows, it will continue to trend down for another week or two, displaying “weakness and confirming a larger correction is due.” Related Reading: Ethereum Eyes 15% Move Amid Key Resistance Retest – Breakout Or Rejection Next? Nonetheless, if price surges above the monthly highs, around the $106,700 mark, “the correction is more likely to be over and there’s a good likelihood that we head to all-time highs and beyond.” “Good chance we range around this area for a while, though, without any of these levels breaking,” he concluded. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $104,224, a 2.6% increase in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

SUI, one of the leading altcoins of this cycle, has recorded an impressive price recovery over the past two months. However, as the cryptocurrency fails to hold some key levels, some analysts warn of a potential drop below the $3.00 support. Related Reading: Ethereum Eyes 15% Move Amid Key Resistance Retest – Breakout Or Rejection Next? SUI Rally Risks Massive Price Drop Since hitting its four-month high of $4.29, SUI’s price has been moving sideways, hovering between $3.40-$4.00 throughout most of May. Amid last week’s market retrace, the altcoin recorded a 14.2% price drop, losing its range and hitting the $3.00 support over the weekend. At the start of this week, SUI saw a mild recovery alongside the rest of the market, surging to the $3.20 area. Nonetheless, the cryptocurrency has failed to hold this level over the past 24 hours and dropped to the $3.10-$3.15 area on Thursday morning. Crypto analyst Carl Runefelt warned that the cryptocurrency’s rally could be in danger as it risks breaking down of a descending triangle pattern. Per the post, the altcoin has been trading within this formation for the past month, also displaying a potential Head & Shoulders setup forming inside of the triangle, and the pattern’s baseline sitting around the $3.10 support. To the analyst, “if it breaks out of this triangle to the downside, then the fall can be very hard,” forecasting a nearly 35% retrace toward the $2.00 mark. On the contrary, a breakout to the upside could propel SUI’s price toward the $4.20 resistance. Analyst Crypto Bullet recently highlighted a “humongous” rising wedge pattern in the cryptocurrency’s chart, which eyes the $8-$10 area as the next major target. According to the chart, SUI has been moving within this pattern since early 2024, hovering between the upper and lower boundaries for over a year. Notably, the cryptocurrency hit the support trendline one more time during the April low, bouncing from this level. Based on this, the analyst considers that the current dip could be “the last opportunity to add to your bags before SUI makes a new ATH.” Can It Repeat Its Late 2024 Playbook? Analyst Rekt Capital noted that SUI was positioned for a bullish Monthly Candle Close in May, aiming to replicate its late 2024 performance. Last year, the cryptocurrency retested the $3.39 level and turned it into support, which acted as a springboard toward its January 2025 all-time high (ATH) of $5.35. This time, May closed below this crucial level, failing to confirm it as support and losing the recent price range. SUI is now “showcasing very early signs of upside wicking into said level to turn it into new resistance.” The analyst warned that June could see the cryptocurrency reject from this level “if things don’t change over the course of this month.” SUI is currently located inside the $2.33-$3.39 price range and is trying to position itself for a reclaim of the Range High to facilitate a breakout. However, it has unsuccessfully attempted to surge to that level, which could send the price toward lower levels if it “continues to float here without covering additional ground.” Related Reading: Bitcoin To Face ‘One Last Speed Bump’ Before Rally To $140,000 – Analyst Therefore, SUI risks dropping 10% toward the $2.81 mid-range area, which acted as support and weak resistance earlier this year, and falling 30% to the $2.33 range low if the previous level doesn’t hold. “If SUI fails to show signs of reclaiming $3.39 as support (at least on the Daily timeframe via Daily Closes above $3.39), then sub-$3 regions could be on the cards,” the analyst concluded. As of this writing, SUI trades at $3.08, a 2.3% decline in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Ethereum (ETH) is retesting a crucial resistance level amid its daily 3% recovery. The cryptocurrency has been rejected from this area since last month’s market recovery, failing to continue its bullish rally. As its price continues its sideways trajectory, an analyst suggests that a 15% move is coming. Related Reading: Bitcoin To Face ‘One Last Speed Bump’ Before Rally To $140,000 – Analyst Ethereum Price Compressing Within Key Levels Since its early May breakout, Ethereum has been trading between the $2,475-$2,680 price range, failing to turn the range’s upper boundary as support for nearly a month. Amid last week’s market pullback, the cryptocurrency retraced around 11% from its three-month high of $2,788 to the range’s lower boundary, bouncing from this area on Monday. At the start of the week, ETH reclaimed the $2,500 mark and continued its recovery rally toward the $2,600 resistance. On Wednesday, the King of Altcoins saw a 3.2% daily surge toward the local range high resistance before retracing to the $2,635 level. Carl Runefelt from The Moon Show highlighted the cryptocurrency’s recent performance, affirming that Ethereum is “showing confidence” by staying inside a key formation in the daily timeframe. According to the chart, Ethereum has been forming an ascending triangle since the May rally, with the upper line around the $2,680-$2,700 mark. Moreover, ETH’s price has been compressing between the support and resistance lines, suggesting a potential 15% move if the price breaks out of the pattern. Runefelt forecasted a surge toward the $3,100 level if the Altcoin reclaims the crucial resistance level. However, if the price is rejected once again from this level, the analyst considers that Ethereum could drop to the $2,300 support zone. Crypto Bullet pointed out a similar pattern on multiple ETH charts, suggesting that a 15%-20% breakout is imminent for the cryptocurrency. Per the post, the ETH Dominance is “about to break out” from an ascending triangle pattern in the 12H chart, while the ETH/BTC and ETH/USD trading pairs are nearing the upper boundary of a one-month symmetrical pattern. ETH Preparing For Liftoff? Analyst Crypto Jelle asserted that once ETH reclaims the major resistance area, between $2,680-$2,850, “everything flies higher.” Notably, a reclaim of this zone would send the cryptocurrency above its multi-year ascending support trendline, which was along amid the Q1 2025 retraces, and set the stage for a surge toward the cycle highs. Meanwhile, Ted Pillows noted that ETH’s performance this cycle resembles Bitcoin’s (BTC) price action in 2020. According to the analyst, Ethereum has formed four consecutive 2-week candles since the April 7 bottom, which mimics BTC’s movement after the March 2020 crash. “The similarities between BTC 2020 and ETH 2025 are just mind-blowing,” he stated, suggesting that Ethereum could reach a new all-time high (ATH) in the coming months if it continues to follow BTC’s 2020-2021 trajectory. Related Reading: Monero (XMR) Jumps 11.5% Amid Crucial Support Retest – Analyst Eyes $420 Resistance Market watcher Merlijn The Trader highlighted the same similarities between the flagship cryptocurrency and Ethereum, adding that the King of Altcoins also “just nailed the Spring & Test phase of Wyckoff.” According to the trader, ETH’s structure “screams one thing: Jump. Across. The. Creek. The breakout is coming.” As of this writing, Ethereum trades at $2,632, a 44.2% increase in the monthly timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Bitcoin (BTC) is attempting to reclaim a crucial level as support, which could propel its price to its local range high. A market watcher suggests that this week’s performance could set the tone for the rest of the month. Related Reading: Monero (XMR) Jumps 11.5% Amid Crucial Support Retest – Analyst Eyes $420 Resistance Bitcoin Retest Eyes Massive Rally After losing the $106,800 level last week, Bitcoin has been trying to reclaim this crucial area as support. This recently lost level served as a key support for BTC following its rally to a new all-time high (ATH), with its price hovering between $106,800 and $109,700 before the market retracement. However, the flagship crypto dropped over 8% from its $111,980 high amid last week’s pullback, hitting a 10-day low near the $102,000 support over the weekend. This week, BTC has recovered the $105,000 range and surged above the $106,500 mark before being rejected from the crucial horizontal level on Tuesday morning. Despite the recent performance, Bitcoin recorded its highest monthly close in history, after ending May at $104,591, and remains within its local range between $103,000 and $110,000. Analyst Crypto Jelle noted that as the cryptocurrency tries to reclaim the $105,000-$106,000 area, the 1.618 Fibonacci level suggests the next target sits around the $130,000 barrier. Moreover, he highlighted Bitcoin’s performance this cycle, pointing out that it is displaying a similar performance to its Q4 2024 rally. Notably, the cryptocurrency recorded a trend breakout, followed by a “post-breakout chop” before surging to new highs. Jelle suggested that Bitcoin is in the second stage, after recently breaking out of its early 2025 downtrend line. He also affirmed that Bitcoin’s Power of 3 (Po3) setup is “still in play” despite the rally pause, targeting the $140,000-$150,000 level during the formation’s price expansion phase. Based on this formation, the cryptocurrency only has “one last speed bump,” reclaiming the previous ATH levels, before surging to a new high. BTC’s Direction To Be Determined Soon? Market watcher Daan Crypto Trades affirmed that the cryptocurrency will likely have an “interesting” week and month ahead, as its sideways move has allowed for “a ton of positions that have built up on both sides.” According to the trader, this suggests there will be “a lot of fuel when price starts trending and breaks out of this local consolidation.” Previously, he asserted that BTC tends to set the monthly high or low during the first week of the month, followed by a reversal in the other direction and a trend continuation until the new month. Related Reading: Bitcoin Maxi Max Keiser Isn’t Buying The Hype Around New Crypto Holding Companies Based on this, he considers that if Bitcoin doesn’t hold the current levels in the coming days, it could drop below the $100,000 mark, near the $98,000 support zone, before bouncing. On the contrary, a significant price jump this week could indicate a price retest of the range lows during the rest of the month. As of this writing, Bitcoin trades at $105,889, a 1% increase in the daily timeframe. Featured Image from Unsplash.com, Chart from TradingView.com

Crypto analyst Doctor Profit has risen in fame for making multiple near-perfect calls for the Bitcoin price. He had predicted the Bitcoin decline from $109,000 back down and then called a bottom at $77,000, predicting the BTC price would bounce to new all-time highs, which it did. Now, with the Bitcoin price recoiling from hitting a new all-time high above $111,000, the crypto analyst is back with next steps and where the cryptocurrency could be headed from here. Why The Bitcoin Price Golden Cross Matters In his X post, Doctor Profit starts out by explaining the psychology of the current market, calling out those who continue to call out for a bear market. He refers to these people as ‘exit liquidity’ for the real players, hinting that they’re wrong for their stance. Rather, he points out an important formation in the Bitcoin price chart and that is the Golden Cross, which appeared last week. Related Reading: 312 Million Dogecoin Moved To Coinbase – What’s Going On? The analyst calls the appearance of this Golden Cross “a macro-level signal with historic accuracy.” He explains that since this signal is so rare, but has been right every time, there is no reason to deviate from it. Also, he further explains that the Golden Cross has always been a long-game signal. Hence, results are not expected to start showing so early. The Golden Cross pattern had appeared on the weekly chart, and the crypto analyst highlights its historical accuracy. Each time that the Bitcoin price has formed this Golden Cross, it has usually led to a multi-month rally. If this is the case this cycle, then it suggests that the Bitcoin bull run is far from over. Don’t Worry About The Bears After the Golden Cross pattern appeared, another concerning development had taken place on the Bitcoin price chart and that is a bearish divergence on the weekly timeframe. Normally, this means an end to the rally and that the price could start to plummet. However, the crypto analyst seems unfazed by this. He refers to a similar bearish divergence appearing when the Bitcoin price was trading at $80,000 and nothing happened. Since the cryptocurrency had continued its bullish run at that point, the analyst takes this as a hint that the bearish divergence is lagging and only appeared due to Donald Trump’s tariff announcement last week. “No actionable value here,” Doctor Profit said. Things To Watch Out For So far, Doctor Profit attributes the drawdown in the Bitcoin price to “standard cycle behavior.” This includes profit-taking from short-term holders who bought in the last six months, while long-term holders remain unmoved. Another bullish factor includes the fact that BlackRock’s outflows remain low despite Trump’s renewed tariff war.

Also, the Bitcoin price has been recording higher highs and higher lows after recording its bottom at $74,000, which shows trend support remains strong. The Bitcoin price is also trading above all major moving averages (MAs), including the 20-day, 50-day, and 200-day moving averages. Last but not least, Doctor Profit also pointed out that the MACD line has crossed above the signal line on the weekly chart. This means that momentum remains in favor of the bulls. Given this, the analyst believes “there is no reason to be scared at all.” Featured image from Dall.E, chart from TradingView.com
