The price of Bitcoin (BTC), the leading cryptocurrency, surged over 5% on Monday, reclaiming the crucial $70,000 mark. This uptick follows a period of decline last week attributed to outflows from Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
Analysts believe several factors contributed to the rebound:
- Reduced ETF Selling: The selling pressure from Bitcoin ETFs, particularly Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC), has eased. This trust witnessed significant outflows, potentially due to bankruptcy-related liquidations.
- Favorable Technical Indicators: Technical analysis suggests that sellers may be losing momentum, creating an opportunity for buyers.
- Positive Macroeconomic Outlook: The Federal Reserve’s signal of potential interest rate cuts in the coming months is seen as positive for Bitcoin, as it could improve liquidity conditions and boost asset prices.
Bitcoin’s price found support around $60,000, a key level that coincides with the 38.2% Fibonacci retracement level and is near its previous record high of November 2021. This area suggests potential for further upward movement.

If Bitcoin decisively breaks above its current record of $73,835.57, the bullish trend is likely to continue. However, a reversal at this critical point could lead to a deeper price drop towards the 50-day moving average.
