Trader Notes:
Crypto chart analyst Ali Martinez highlighted $70,920 as Bitcoin’s key resistance level, based on the MVRV Pricing Bands. He said this level could trigger selling pressure as it aligns with the aggregate investor cost basis.
A sustained close above $70,920 would be needed to absorb overhead supply and confirm the continuation of Bitcoin’s rebound.
Trader KillaXBT believes Bitcoin has already formed its cycle bottom. He expects a liquidity sweep above the current range highs, followed by a false breakout and a drop below $62,000 to establish a higher low.
The anticipated correction is expected to be driven by weakness in traditional financial markets rather than crypto-specific factors.
Grayscale highlighted that, "The CLARITY Act can do for the industry what crypto ETFs did: unlock the next wave of adoption."
